Efforts to communicate with, any of the pas- sengers from small boats encircling the.steamer were forbidden. The Appam has one 3-inch gun mounted on her bow, but whether it Was on board before her capture or Wwas mounted by the Germans is nct known. She was brought in under the German man of war flag instead of the German merchant flag, and her name was given to the quarantine offi- cer as ““H. M. S. Appam,” meaning the German warship Appa Licut. Berge Silent. When seen on his way to visit Col. Haynes, Lieut. Berge refused to talk. Asked for information he merely Jook his head and replied “Nothing ay, nothing to say.” He is a small man of slight build with a small moustache, and is very pleasant, though non-communicative. A conference with Collector Hamil- ton will take place in Norfolk th afternoon. After a conference be- tween Lieut. Berge and Consul Von #chilling the lieutenant went back aboard the Appam. Within a few minutes he returned to Old Point dressed in civilian clothes and, with the consul, left for Norfolk to lunch with Collector Hamilton. S. Appam.” S ame into port under the name “H. M. S.

Steamers Sank By Raiders. The names of the steamers sunk by the raider which captured the Appam given as the Trader, Corbridge, due, Brommondy, Farrangton- also reported now that the was the German cruiser Mowe, instead of a submarine, although this is'not confirmed. Washington Informed., Washington, Feb, 1.—Customs Col- lector Hamilton at Norfolk reported 1o the treasury that the German prize steamer which came into Hampton Roads this morning has prisoners of war aboard. His report was referred at once to the state department which will determine the status of tiie vessel. The first report to the German em- v came from the German consul t Norfolk, who telegraphed that a serman auxiliary cruiser’” had come into port Problem for United States. Perplexing questions of interna- tional law may arise from the ar- rival of the Appam in Hampton Roads. First, the United States must determine whether the ship simply ic a prize of war or whether she has been supplied with any armament which would give her the character of an auxiliary cruiser. So far as naval authorities here know, no case exactly like \it has arisen to concern the United States since the beginning of the war. The German ships Kron- prinzen Wilhelm and Prinz Eitel Friedrich, which took refuge in Hampton Roads early in the war . were auxiliary cruisers and now are {riterned as such. Provision of The Hague. The Hague convention provides: “A prize may only be brought into a neutral port on account of un- seaworthiness, stress of weather or want of fuel or provisions. It must Isave as soon as the circumstances which justify its entry are at an end. If it does not, the neutral power must order it to leave at once; should it fail to obey, the neutral power must employ the means at its dis- posal to release it with its officers and crew and to intern ‘the prize crew.” In case the Appam can be con- sidered as an auxiliary cruiser she is T “The Busy Little Store” Strictly Fresh Connecticut EGGS 33 Right from the nest, 1ot an egg in the lot a week old. Russell Bros. 301 MAIN STREET entitled, under international law, to a certain length wf time to make any necessary repairs and load enough coal and provisions to carry her to the nearest home port. Will Remain Here. In any event officials here regard it #s a foregone conclusion that the Appam will remain in Hampton Roads until the end of the war. tic lanes of commerce, probably al- ready advised of the arrival of the Appam, are steaming for the Virginia Capes to guard the entrance outside the three mile limit. As a merchant stip she could remain voluntarily in port, and the only question for the United States to determine would be the disposition of the German prize crew and the prisoners of war which the ship carrie The probabilities that if the Appam still has the character of a mer- chantman and the prize crew does not elect to take the risk of running the gauntlet of British cruisers outside, the customs collector will take charge cf the vessel and, after probably in- terning her prize crew, would return the ship to her owners. No Record of Berge. The German embassy has no rec- ord of Lieutenant Berge, and officials suppose he may be an officer of the German merchant marine in the aux- iliary service. Embassy officials as well as Ameri- can naval officers are puzzled and do not understand how a submarine could spare such a large prize crew to put on the Appam. Prince Hatzfeldt of the .German embassy is leaving for Norfolk late today to take charge of the situation. The embassy officials said they had virtually nothing but what was con- tained in the news despatches and that they were mystified. Upholds U. S. Contention. The exploit of the German com- man_der in placing a crew from a sub- marine aboard a merchant ship and sailing her into port without loss of life of passengers or crew may have a bearing on the submarine controversy between the United States and Ge: many. Some officials were inclined to regard the feat as added evidence to support the contention of the United States that even under modern condi- tions of naval warfare a submarine can capture a ship without loss of life. The supreme court in a decision, announced in 1902, which may bear on the disposition of the Appam, held: “Until condemnation, captors ac- quire no absolute right of property in a prize x x x x and it is for the gov- ernment to determine when the pub- lic interests require a different des- tination.” Considerable Investigation. Secretary Lansing said the Appam case would involve considerable inv tigation before any action by this gov- ernment was taken. There was noth- ing to do, he said, until the validity of the capture was determined. The Appam is the first case since the beginning of the present war where a prize had been brought into an American port. Captured January 15. Feb. 1.—The British steamer Appam was captured January 5 near the Canary Islands by a small steamer having the appearance of a tramp but heavily armed, according to information obtained from Nerfolk by Daniel Bacon, freight agent here for the owners of the Appam. Given Up For Lost. The Appam sailed from. Dakar, in the French colony of Senecgal, West Africa, for Plymouth, England, on January 11. When about four days out wireless communication with the ves- sel suddenly ceased, and as the davs passed without further word of her she was virtually given up for lost. A despatch from Hull, England, to the London Lloyds, on January 28 said that the British steamship Tregantle had reported having passed at sea on January 16 a life-boat with the name Appam painted on the stern and with the bows knocked away. It was feared she had gone down in a severe storm which occurred in ths waters through which she was passing, or possibly had encountered a German submarine operating off the African coast. The Appam, under ordinary conditions should have reached Ply- mouth January 21. Sailed With 166 The Appam sailed with 166 passen- gers and a crew of 134. Among the passengers were British colonial of- ficials. After leaving Dakar she called at all ports ocn the west coast of Africa, picking up officials who in- tended to return to England on fur- Jough. These men formed a consider- able portion of her passenger list. Among the passengers who were booked to sail on the Appam were Sir Bdward and Lady Merewether and their suite; Frederick Seton James, former acting colonial secretary and closely identified with colenial admin- istrative affairs in Africa; Francis Charles Fuller, who was appointed chief commissioner of Askanti, in 1905, and Mrs. Fuller. The Appam is 425 feet beam, of 7,781 { was built in 1913 at Belf: and owned by the Bri African Steam Navigation which is under the management the Elder-Dempster Line. According to Lloyds register there is a German merchant ship named Mowe commanded by Captain C. Berg, which is the same name as that of Passengers. feet long, tons gros She .

After the Zeppelin raids on Paris Saturday and Sunday nights, the view was expressed by the French au- thoriti that these attacks were | Coubtless merely a prelude to a more cxtensive movement by German air- craft, and the fact that six or seven machines have taken part in the new raid on England would indicate a well considered plan by tthe Germans to inrcrease the activity of their dirigibles and probably bring into play the new Fokker machines, which are reported | to be very effective engines of war. Difficulty of Defense. Discussing the possibility of serious damage to London from a Zeppelin | attack, the Times say. { “Any raid intended to do serious damage to London, the defenses of which are still in process of develop- ment, are not likely to be of the hap- hazard nature of the Paris raids. It remains for us to provide a really serious reception. “Hitherto London's principal ef- | forts in this direction consist chiefiy | of guns largely manned by cheery, Lut inexperienced and ill-equipped, | mateur: No one who witnessed the ds on London last autumn can have failed to have been impressed by the inadequate of the defensive preparations. Sinse then, consider- able progress has been made, but we should be better satisfied if we had also sufficient aeroplanes to attack { morrow afternoon at 3 o’clock from the raiders. Fifty Miles an Hour. “We are perfectly aware difficulties of attacking airships with aeroplanes. The modern Zeppelin has a speed of fifty miles an hour. | Suppose it is at a given moment over | a given spot at a height of 11,000 feet. An aeroplane starting from the ground underneath, will take half an hour to reach the spot where the Zeppelin was seen but by that time the Zeppelin may be thirty miles away. The only remedy seems to be to have at suitable places patrols of avick climbing aeroplanes ready to take the air as soon as the approach of a Zeppelin is announced, so as to deal with the enemy when he has ar- rived. “The matter is not easy, on ac- count of the difflculty, not only of hearing and seeing a Zeppelin from an- aeroplane but of seriously dam- aging it when discovered. There is also the risk of landings in the dark, but the knowledge that it certainly Wwill meet some kind of attack at close quarters is likely to prove a deterrent to a raiding aircraft.” of the Raid on Paris Twarted. Paris, Feb. 1, 4:50 a. m.—A Zecp- pelin started in the direction of Paris last night at 9:45 p. m. A warning was sent from Compiegne that a German airship had been sighted in movement. The military governor of Paris gave orders that preparations be made to give the alarm if neces- sary. However, when the Zeppelin | got into the field of the searchligh on the French front it turned - baclk and is supposed to have abandoned a projected raid. SHH CONSULS FRE TURK iD. at Saloniki by Allies and Brought to Toulon. Toulon, Feb. 1, 1:50 a. m.—The Turkish consul general and the two Turkish vice consuls, who had been arrested at Saloniki and brought here on a French warship, have been re- leased, on instructions from the French government. Accompanied by their families they have left here for Switzerland. 1t is announced that the Bulgarian consul, who was arrested under like circumstances will also be allowed to leave. Arrested It was stated in Washington on Jan. 21 that through the good officcs of the United States, the German, | Austrian, Turkish and Bulgarian consuls, arrested at Saloniki by the allies, were to be released on con- dition, that they should not resume their functions in Saloniki.
