It lias been remarked by visit' ors that the streets- of Washington, compared with other cities, are kept very clean, but that there is more glass thrown on the streets of Washington than in any city through which they have passed.

de Victorica, Caught During War, Revealed German Secrets. NEW YORK. Au prist Marie K. de Victorica. the weird fipure who arose out of the maze of intrigue unearthed secret service agents delved into the activities here of Count von Bernstorff and his confidential agents, von Pa pen and RoyEd.

died yesterday at Or. Maluk's sanitarium of second mysterious attack since her arrest in 1018. She was an important member of the German -spy system here during the war. Only a week ago she made I application to the United States dis- I trict court to return to Germany, but when United States Attorney G. Caffey recommended to the court I that a surety bond of $5,000 be de- manded to insure her return if want- ed.

Mme. de Victorica withdrew her i application. Had Been in Convent. She was removed to the private sanitarium on Monday from a convent which took her in following her release from custody in Sept ember. 1010.

Mme. de Victorica was already suffering" from pneumonia when admitted to the sanitarium, the nurse i who attended her said last night, On July 17, 1018. she was removed i to the Army base hospital at Ellis I Island, ill with an attack of pneuImonia which government agents were (fearful would end her life before they I could learn what she could tell them about German spies. Sinn Fein plots (and other activities hatched in America with German gold. Mme Victorica recovered and later revealed much the government wanted to know at various trials.

Her first case of pneumonia puzzled the Army surgeons because it became critical within a few hours after it was diagnosed, and followed a sudden and mysterious attack of the sani? disease which ended the life of Mme. Despina Dadidoviteh Storch, another alluring and unscrupulous agent of the German intelligence department. It was considered more than a coincidence that both these women should be stricken with pneumonia on Ellis Island just when they were apparently ready to confess all they knew to save themselves from possible death by a firing squad. An investigation followed the death of Mme. Storch, but beyond the bare announcement that she died following a brief illness with pneumonia, nothing was made public.

An Attractive Blond. Mme. de Victorica was forty-two years old. She retained something of the blond, hold attractiveness of I feature and complexion that must i have made her conspicuous for beauty in earlier years. She said she was the (laughter of a Prussian general, i She lived a life of adventure such as falls to the lot of few women.

She spoke German. French, Spanish and English, the last with piquant intonations, but with a regard for grammar. She went under various aliases here, and was known from time to time as Mme. De Yussiere and Karoness von Kretschmann. The various indictments against her involved conspiracy to instigate war on the part of Ireland on the side of Germany, the destruction of American ships by bombs, the organization of a messenger system and various oth? acts, all of them intended to aid Germany in the war against America.

The indictment alleges a $20,000 swindle, but Mr. Nee actually parted with $35,000. More than a year ago the Washing- ton merchant says he met McDonald and alleged confederates at Mount C'lenn ns, where they reported finding a pocketbook containing a sum of money and a certificate showing the owner possessed a seat in the New York Stock Exchange. The reputed owner, an alleged con- federate of McDonald, was found. He i was willing to pay a large sum of money as a reward to the finders of 1 the pocketbook.

but McDonald would listen to no such offer. Refusal to take the money cemented the friendship the alleged swindler is charged with having desired, u.iiu me iiujuer uj. int- uogus ceruncate offered to take the men to Detroit an-J assist them to make a "killing1in stocks. The "'killing' was made, but Nee was called upon to make a showing that he could have settled if he had lost. This he was easily able to and the result was that he turned over to the alleged swindlers in this city and an additional $15,000 in 1'hiladelphia.

McDonald and Charles Gerber, alias were arrested in Fort i IV orth in connection with a big swin- die. They were convicted and sentenced to ten years' imprisonment, i according to the police, and McDon- aid was at liberty on an appeal bond i when ho was arrested and brought here.
