__ FROM CUNEAHERE& — ONWAHTOWAR] » Seventy-three Colonists Who) f * ” @ An Bluffed English Into Grant- - ying Safe Conducts Arrive. Strangest wards of all the world war! to sift into New York were the ninety- seven German colonists, men women and children, from German New Gui- nea, away down in the water wilder-| ness of the Antipodes, who arrived the Southern Pacific steamer fighting men who have fought the English once, behind coral breastworks ig New Guinea, and boast that they { will fight the English again somewhere in the trenches of France. For, they @ay, they bluffed the commander of an Australian fighting ship into giving them safe conduct to Germany as the price of their surrender at Nauin, on their island possession, with no.prom- ises not to fight again exacted. The seventy-three valiants, with Gov. Dr. Eduard Haber, their former chief in the island colony, expect to take the first Scandinavian-American Line steamer to Sweden, and so home and to the battle line. Dr. Haber, the Governor of German New Guinea, came overland from San Francisco and arrived here a, few; days ago. But the test of the col- | onists, swinging around by New Or- leans and the sea route north, were slower to arrive. A big Hamburg-American tug took ae off the Antilles and across the forth River to the Hamburg-Ameri- an liner President Lincoln, all be- “decked in bunting in honor of the birthday of her name giver. There twenty-five of the refugees from Kiaochow who came last week still remained, and between China and New Guinea there was a love feast, toasted in brimming schooners. The New Guinea strays will re- main on the President Lincoln un- til they can take ship to Eyrope, the women going to Italy and’ the fight- ing men to Sweden. Karl Hacker, a bronzed trader who has spent years skimming the South Beas for copra, and pearls, told the story of the epic fight at Nauin. “Our big wireless station was there,” he said, “but even with the wireless we heard est of the war until Aug. 17, That ight several of us had Invitations to dine,with John Slater, the only Englishman in the settle- ment, We went just the same, though the spark through the air said we were enemies. “Next day we started making prep- erations for defense. We made ches and got out all @ur ammuni- ton, determined to save the wireless plant whatever happened. “But we heard nothing from the English until Sept. 11, when an Australian battleship showed up and sent a landing party ashore. We gradually retired under fire to the last | line of defense at the wireless sta- | tion, but there we put up a big fight There were only a little more than a hundred of us, but we burned enough powder for a regiment, The English were deceived. Finally they sent a flag of truce and asked for a parley. “Our Governor said the only terms of surrender he would listen to were safe conduct for every fighting man back to Germany and no promise not to fight again. The English accepted these terms, and in Australia, where they took us, the Minister of State signed & special pass for every one “of us. So we go back to fight. “They tell us we wijl be the only German reservists to leave New York since the war began.” IA handsome, solid oak table, with round pedestal, claw feet and highly| polished top, Ext™nds so as to seat eight people comfortably, A really desirable table at a specially low price. 4 Rooms Furnished Dutfitss ren, NeEnerys Brooklyn’s Most Reliable Furniture and Carpet House TWO BLOCKS AWAY FROM HIGH PRICES. 86-88-90 Myrtle Av. {Terence Open Saturdays Until 7 P, M.
