Berlin, Apr. 20.
The French Embassy at Berlin today sent telegraphic instructions to the three French officers concerned ju the Koenigsberg incident, where they, took photographs within the precincts. of German artillery barracks, to clear out of East Prussia Germany immediately. On. receipt of the wire the officers crossed the frontier into Poland.
Unfortunately the examination of the films taken by the officers gives {the affair a more serious turn than had at first been expected. The Jcamera used was a film-camera for! moving pictures and was used for taking pictures of experiments which were being made in the barracks grounds with a new system artillery aiming apparatus, obviously not intended to be public property. The three officers are il) members of the French general staff and two of them members of its so-called Second Bureau, which is the intelligence or espionage department, The German press expects that farther steps will be taken in the matter among which are suggested recall of the French Consul in Koenigsberg who acted the officers and of the who is a member of the staff of the French Embassy in Berlin.—Tra Ocean Kuo Min,
