I can simply give my word of honor that what I have sald"is the truth, and that the facts are going to be proved to the satisfaction of the American people. "1 will state further that no act of violence, or fraud, whether it be a fire in a munitions factory, the ex- plosion of a bomb on board a ship, or the establishment of a fraudulent passport office, springs from the de- mented mind of any single individ- ual. Every, act is planned in ad- vance; men who can be trusted to go through with such criminal perform- ances are selected in advance, and the whole scheme is worked through a system. Individuals are simply carrying out orders that they get from the men above them } "My fifteen years' experience in the foreign service of Austro-Hun- gary has given me exact knowledge of this spy system, which is directed by the German Embassy through Captain Boy-Ed and Captain von Pa- pen, acting directly with Consul-Gen- eral von Nuber in New York. These three men have full and complete knowledge of every move made by every German and Austrian spy in the United States. In spite of their assertions that they are innocent of any wrongdoing, or of any know- ledge of the burning of munitions | plants, or the wrecking of ships, they | are in immediate touch with every | transaction. "Every central empire spy operat- | ing in this country to-day is official- | ly listed in the offices of these men, and their records are kept in card | index form. Theretare, I should | judge, from my personal knowledge, about 3,000 of these men in the Unit- ed States; to-day, and every one of them will do exactly what he is or- dered to do, and considers himself, as ir fact he really is, a soldier under the direct instruction of his mili- | tary superiors. No one of these | men would dare to act on his own re- sponsibility in a foreign country be- | fore he had secured the approval of the representative of his Government in that country. These men have to keéep in touch with the military and | naval attaches of either the German or Austrian Embassy, or else with the Consuls 1 have named in my pre- vious statements, and from them they secure all maps and charts, sail- ing lists of steamers, and the precise location of factories where ammuni- tign is being manufactured. "*They have to visit the official re- presentatives of their country in or- der to get the sums of money they | need to carry out their instructions.

It is a standing order in all the Ger- man and Austrian Consulates that these spies are never to be. given more than the amount of money ne- cessary to carry them over the one specific job they have on hand at any one time. "Do the American people think that Captain von Papen"s somewhat innocuous statement about Ameri- cans in his letter discovered on Ar- chibald is an isolated expression of opinion? The truth .is that, since the beginning of the war in every German and Austrian Consulated in this country and im both embassies, Americans have been 'dogs' and 'pigs' and 'beasts' whenever refer- ence has been made to them. The people of this country do not under- stand the contempt with which these men view them and their almost en- tire freedom from restraint in every illicit act they are performing "No passport fraud agent in New York or Cleveland or Philadelphia-- and these three cities are full of them --could live and do business a day without the sanction and friendly as- sistance of the Austrian and German officials When the truth is known concerning the actual sums of money that have been spent in this country for the purchase of newspapers, the subsidizing of college professors, the destruction of munitions plants, the hiring of halls, the payment of tra- velling expenses for hundreds of men who are constantly moving about the country, and for many other pur- poses, the amount will stagger the imagination."

The meet- ig was held under the auspices of branch of the Red Cross Society, a committee composed of ladies, who, during the course af the meeting,]| took up a collection of $160 for the] sending of Christmas gifts to the sol- diers overseas. The chair was occupied by G. G. Hea, Inspector of public Schools, | and president of the Renfrew branch the Patriotic Society. In addi- tion 10 the speeches by South Ren- frew's Parliamentary representatives, there was sacred music by the Citi- gens' Band, solos by Mrs. Mansfield, Mr. Oldham and Mr. Breckenridge, and a recruiting Guards. Lieut. Williams plained that thus far, recruits for the Guards, position shas been met with wives, sisters and sweethearts. sald that in coming to Renfrew county no such trouble was antici- pated, after the excellent showing in men and money already made by the county. Both Messrs. Graham and McGarry had warm praise for what South Renfrew had so far done in connec- tion with the war, hundreds of men having been recruited here, and large sums of money having been sub- scribed for the different funds. They urged that the good work be con- tinued, as the need of Canadian help by the Mother Country continued to be urgent. Both of them paid their respects to those Nationalists of Que- bec 'who haye been declaring that Canada ought not to participate in the present war, pointing out the ex- treme unwisdom of such a course. com- every Tey as you will, after an applica- tion of Danderine, you can not find a single trace of dandruff or falling sing and your scalp will not itch, but t will pl you most: will be af- a few 's use, when you see | new hair, -- and downy at first-- yes--but really new gv all over the scalp. i H Li i 15 ii § et Ottawa, of master-general of 5 nance. 3 - the | 30th if young | men did not come forward voluntar-| Canadian | George | close' of church services, they deliv-| the Comfort Committee of the local] spegch by Lieut.)

More Fatally In Second First Year, (Special to the, Whig.) London, Nov. 15. -- Winston Churchill in the €emmons yesterday afternoon said Germany may be de- feated more fatally in the second or third year than if the Allies had en- tered Berlin in the first year, because of the enemy's lack of men.

Gooderham, Aemilius Jarvis, M. A. Kennedy, J. S. McMurray, E. K. M. Wedd, J. F. Wyilkin. That the Wanderer hockey club's franchise in the National Association is on the market, and that - owner Sam E. Litchtenhein is ready to ac- cept a substantian financial loss in order to dispose of his holdings was announced. The American Amateur Athletic Union has decided to investigate the charges against George Goulding, the world's champion walker. Goulding has made a denial on all counts, but the Registration Committee intends to investigate. At the annual meeting of share- holders of the Ontario Jockey Club it was announced that $106,000 had been given in purses, of which sum a goodly proportion found its way to breeders' of thopoughbred horses in the Province of Ontario in the sea- son just ended. Alfred Grenda of Tasmania and Fred Hl of Watertown, N.Y., won the six-day bicycle race which closed last night. They had a total of 99 points. McNamara and Spears of Australia were second with 97 points. Eight teams set up a new local re- cord for the event with a mark of 1,409 miles one lap. The Sportsmen's Patriotic Asso- ciation at London, Ont., has arrang- ed to sell 8. P. A. buttons on the streets in order to secure funds to start the movement. These buttons are the insignia of the association, a gold-plated beaver, with the initials S. P. A. stamped on it, forming the face. The-button is in two parts, one screwing on to the other, and it makes a pleasing ornament for a coat lapel. Some of the mystery surrounding the professional hockey situation in Toronto was lifted by E. J, Living- stone- that there would be only one professional hockey club in Torento| this winter. v Mr. Livingstone stated that the Torontos would play N. H. A. hoe- key and the Shamrocks would go out of existence--for the season, at least. Toronto Mail-Enipire: Toronto won because they had the better back division, and because they essed on their line-up more finished Rugby players than the visitors. The latter, considering that two of their men had only learned the this season, presented a very Ine on the offensive, and their superior weight enabled them in many instan- ces to tear holes in the Toronto line. The latter, though, were the speed- fest and excelled at the or old Varsity game. Incl y" 'there were no less than eight former Var- sity players on winners' line-up. The tackling ofboth teams was re-| especially good, while Toronto had in Jack Maynard, Bickle and Al Ram- say, the former ry centre- half, in "| prises is past. i2 iy | PAGES ET SECOND SECTION GERMANY CANNOT STAVE OFF DEFEAT General Russky Declares Huns Surrender By Whole Battalions---Fifth Ally Soon, Says Noted Russian---Balkans But Sec- ondary Theatre of War. Petrograd, Nov. 15. -- London Daily Telegraph despatch--=Gen. Russky has given the following in- terview to the correspondent of the Bourse Gazette: "We are now guaranteed against unpleasant surprises on the part of the Germans. The time for sur- The Germans are still: strong, but not so strong that we need fear them. "The Anglo-French army has so thoroughly fortified itself that if there are surprises they can only be agreeable to our Allies. "Wait a little and there will be a fifth ally." "By not advancing the enemy in really is retreating. Recently he also has been deteriorating in phy- sique. "At Dvinsk we are delivering tre- mendous blows by our transition to the aggressive. The Germans now surrender readily in whole compan- ies and battalions. This, in my opinion, is an ominous sign. Their men," worn out by privations and the cold, show no trace of their former self-confidence. These are facts, not illusions. . "The Balkans are a secondary theatre of war. It is not there that the fate of nations will be decided. Eyen if Germany should operate suc- cessfully in the Balkans she will merely make things temporarily easy for herself. She cannot probably save herself. "The story of the landing of Rus- sian troops on the Bulgarian coast is untrue.

Smith's Falls could also be taken in, which would make it a five- club league, Manager Tebo will get in touch with the officials of the O. H.A. in Toronto next week, and it is likely that efforts will be made to or- ganize the league within two weeks. The clubs throughout the Ottawa valley which are desirous of enter: ing the league play fast hockey for amateurs, and there is no doubt but what the Ottawa people would sup- port the league well. Tommy Lowery, who played against Kingston last year, stated that they are faster than any Ottawa team and could hold their own in any league. Brockville played here last winter and gave a good account of themselves. Little is known of the Cornwall seven, but several years ago the home town of "Newsy" Lalonde boasted of one of the strongest teams in Canada. Queen's Hockey Notes. Queen's Journal. Queen's certainly has a generous infusion of hockey blood this year. There is no doubt in the minds of hockey fans, mereower, that Queen's will have a strong if not stronger team than last season. psychological eventuality may hap- pen, including the mutiny of the Bul- garian troops. The Germans will reckon with these possibilities and, hurling all the Bulgarians against the Serbiaus, themselves will take charge of the Black Sea coast." - cwae---- Will Be Decided in France. London, Nov. 15.--Col. Repington, the Times' military expert, says: "We are absolutely certain to win the war if we set about it in the right way; as sure to lose if continued in the wrong way. The decision lies in France, to which offensive main op- oa all else must be subordinat- ed. "In the uther theatres we must act defensively with as few troops as possible, Making every use of geo- graphical and maritime advantages, which, properly used, can defeat all attempts on Egypt. "We must have no more knight- errantry, no more tourist trips hun- dreds of miles from the sea. We must build up a larger military force --if necessary by compulsory service --30 new divisions at least, so we may be able to throw in the last re- serve which decides war and battles and may be able to impose a peace in consonance with our interests. "Finally, it should be*made a pe- nal offence for members of the war committee to. write in language with which they are of conversant memoranda on strategical subjects. We have called in a specialist and must allow him to prescribe, forsak- ing the quacks and crystal gazers of the past. 'By strict adherence to these prin- ciples the war committe may restore victory to our arms and prevent Brit- ish strategy becoming permanently thessynonym of folly." ~~ seems to be the pick of the pew lood. * Wallace, of Woodstock Col- lege, 1s another speedy forward. Be- sides these two men we have four other recruits from the Junior O. H, A. or Intercollegiate in Toland, Ste- wart, Cooke and Willlams. Goddard, of last year's defence, will again be in uniform, and Jack's end to end rushes are always danger- ous. Rappelle, Purvis and McGregor, who have played steadily as substi- tutes on our Seniors last year, will be out again.
