Elephants, lions and tigers were sold by the municipal authorities to butchers for the use of the civilian population. That was the statement yesterday of Miss Marie Brown of Pittsburgh, as American singer who arrived at an American port on a Norwegian liner. She told of her own experience in eating zoo meat in Leipzig, and as- serted that she understood the prac- tice had been adopted in other large cities where there were zoological gardens. “In Leipzig there was no beef OU lamb to be had, and the only meat procurable was that of the animals in the famous zoo there,” she said. “The lions and tigers were eaten first, Then the elephants were killed for market. I ate some of the elephant meat myself. It was not any too pal- atable, but it was filling. It was So tough it had to be ground up to eat. When I left Leipzig the monkeys and birds were about the only living things left'in the Zoo. The people were fully expecting to try the mop- key meat next.”’ Miss Brown left Berlin on July 14. Although an American, she managed to get out of the country through the influence of Han Tauscher, husband of Mme. Gadski, the singer. Tauscher went back to Germany from here with Count Von Bernstorff after be- ing tried and acquitted here on a charge of conspiring to blow up the Welland Canal. . When this country broke off diplo- matic relations with Germany Miss Brown considered leaving the coun- try, but the friends she had made in Rerlin persuaded her to stay and as- sured her she would be well treated there. But when war was declared she found that living in Germany was unbearable for an American, and on May 29 she started trying to get to this country. Insulted for Speaking English. “A hatred of Americans far worse than of the English suddenly mani- fested itself among the Germans of all classes,” she said. “If any one spoke English on the street it occa- sioned open insult. One afternoon T met a friend on the Unter den Linden and ih my delight at seeing her forgot myself for a moment 4nd told her in glad T was to see her. A German woman who passing happened to hear me and she slapped me across the back with her umbrella. When 1 turned in surprise and looked at her, she evidently saw at once I was an American and _exclaimed, ‘“Gott strafe die Vereinigten Staten!' Then she added in German, ‘They have be- trayed us.’ “I went to Kommandant Tour to get permission to enter Denmark or Holland so that I could catch a steamer home ,but he refused to grant me a passport, and said no American would be permitted to leave Germany in any circumstances. “By this time living in Berlin had become. so expensive that I decided to go to Leipzig, and there T found food scarcer than in Berlin, but some- what cheaper. There I met Mr. Tau- scher, who, through his influence with Count von Bernstorff, procured per- mission for me to go to Denmark. “The food situation in Germany is the most serious problem. How long she can hold out on the present Tations is a matter probably only the highest officials really know, as they carefully conceal the real truth. “I can also say that the reserves they are talking about in Germany are weaklings. The German army s losing its strength all the time. As its best men fall, those.who take their places cannot compare Wwith them.” The day before the liner reached Halifax, where she stopped for British inspection, Helga Steffansen, a three- year-old Norwegian girl who was com- ing to this country with her parents, died of scarlet fever. Her body was buried at sea. : Between the Grand Banks and Hali- fax the liner picked up a dory with a fisherman in it. He was Louis Max, one of the crew of the fishing schooner Russell of Gloucester, Mass. a fog and had been without food or He drifted away from the schooner In water for three days. — BROCKWAY TRUCK To Hire—$2.50 per hour or $20.00 per day.
