BERNSTORFF INVOLVED.
PLOTS IN UNITED STATES. FURTHER REVELATIONS. London, April 24. The New York correspondent of the Daily Telegraph, referring to the arrest of Wolfe von Igel, formerly secretary to Captain von Papen, states that, among the documents found in the office which was! occupied by von Papen while attached to the German Embassy, was a code-book which enables the police to identify many sensational papers which were previously seized. The code-book shows that Count von Bernstorff, the German Ambassador at Washington, is in the same category as von Papen and Dr. Dumba, formerly Austrian Ambassador, who was recalled at the request of America for fomenting labour troubles. Bernstorff's claim for the return of the documents has been met by a request from Mr. R. Lansing. Secretary of State, that Bernstorff will discriminate between the official and the unofficial documents that wore seized when von Igel was taken into custody.
