POTSDAM IN PORT BRINGS HOME 830 ~ FROM WAR ZONE Get Their Last Fright From Inquisitive Cruiser’s Search- light Off Nantucket. The Holland-America line steam- hip Potsdam, first ship to bring Am- erican refugees from the actual war sone in Europe, got into port this morning with 830 passengers, to whoin the Statue of Liberty looked as big a8 a skyscraper, Last night while off Nantucket light the white beam of a hidden cruiser's searchlight aud- bh denly flashed upon the Potedam in polite invitation to display her fiag, and s0 war's alarms pursued her frightened passengers almost to tie gates of peace. Though the ship's capacity was taxed to the utmost and not another passenger could have been accommo- dated, every one had some sort of place to sleep and none of the first and second cabin passengers had to find place in the steerage as was the case with the Philadelphia, due to- Morrow, with millionaires in hor steerage bunks, Two hundred and thirty passengers wereyin her first cabin, 800 In the second and a like Bumber came third class, Not for ono minute of all the twelve days out of Boulogne were the pas- sengers allowed to. forget that behind them the whole of Europe flamed, for the steerage was about equally divided between Austrians, Russians and Germans, and riots wore of hour- ly occurrence. On more than one oc- casion the ship's officers had to pry the brawlers apart with slicing bars and other handy instruments; many a head was broken and several parti- sans were stabbed by forks. One passenger, Calvin Smith of Easton, Pa., was at Sarejevo, in Bos- nia, just three days after the assas- sination of the Grand Duke of Aus- » On the day he left he visited the police station to have his pass- port vised, and while there saw the assassin, @ strapping fellow, who held his head high, proud of the thing he had done. A bomb was thrown into a crowd a few hours before Mr. Smith took the train from Sarejevo. Mrs. M. F. K. Swift of Los Angeles told a story of how native American nerve had won a Leer for her ‘aris on the day war was declared. She said: “I bad a ticket on the Imperator, and was in London waiting to bail when I learned that the Imperator's trip had been cancelled, Then I rushed over to Paris to get some val- uable gowns I had in my baggage there. Paris was mad with excite- ment and no place for a lone woman to stay. I heard about the Potedam putting in at Boulogne and took the back from the bedlam of last train from Paris there. “When we got to Boulogne I had & porter carry my trunks aboard ahip, picked out a stateroom and there sat on my trunks until after the ship salled. Then I went to the pureer, admitted I had no passage and presented my ticket on the Im- perator, He accepted it, dear that he was!” Dr. George C. Fahy of New Haven travelled from London to Boulogne in evening clothes in order to catch the Potsdam. Mr, and Mrs, Meler Steinbrink of No. 18 Fuller place, Brooklyn, arrived *: Rotterdam with no baggage and t Dutch ovtfit for th Miriam.
