Washington, — Another chapter ot
tha story of Gorman Intrigue In neu-
tral countries and among neutral dip-
lomats was revealed by Secretory
Lansing In tha form of a letter to tho
imperial chancellor from the notorious
von Eckhardt, the German minister at
Mexico City, to whom tho Intercepted
Zimmermans note waa addressed. It
discloses that Folks Cronholm, tho
Swedish charge la Mexico, was de-
pended upon by the Osrmaa diplomat
to furnish Infortaatlon "from the hos-
tile camp" and to transmit communi-
cations to Berlin and that von Eck-
bardt wanted him rewarded by a se-
cret sward from the kaiser of the "or-
dor of the crown of the second class.’*
This letter was written on March 2.
1210, and apparently has been In the
possession of the American govern-
ment for a long time. It was made
