SPY PANIC IN GERMANY.
WHAT BRITAIN MAY HAVE. By Gable—Press Association—Copyright. Berlin, December 18. There is a spy panic in Germany. Some newspapers allege that when the Moroccan dispute was acute the suspicions of the postal officials were aroused by heavy British remittances to nonrcommissioned officers. These are now supposed to have been for plans of harbors, water reservoirs and naval signal codes. The newspapers add that the first squadron of the North Sea fleet remained at sea for several weeks because the plans of Wilhelmsliaven harbor were betrayed to Britain, enabling her to blow up the harbor gatea and bottle up the fleet. FURTHER WILD STORIES. Received 19, 10 p.m. Berlin. December 19. The newspapers publish further Wilhelmshauven stories, and add that the reason why the fleet remained at sea was not to guard against sudden onslaught, but dared not enter the harbor, fearing that they would .be imprisoned there.
