EXPORT OF ARMS TO SPAIN
SENSATIONAL ARREST IN PARIS United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright (Received December 22, 1.46 a.m.) PARIS, December 21. A sensation has been caused by the arrest of a handsome widw, Suzanne Linder, employed as a secretary at Qua! d’Orsay, for alleged complicity in the forgery of documents to facilitate the export of arms to Spain.
Madame Linder had a suit of rooms in a fashionable hotel, which was incompatible with her salary, but she says she privately conducted an estate agency, which the police allege was the centre of an extensive arms traffic. Her wealthy Lithuanian friend, Rosenfeld, also was arrested. Madame Linder is a niece of the late Phillipe Berthelot, a former SecretaryGeneral of the Foreign Ministry.
