PARIS, March 9.—Thrilling stories are told of the fire on the French liner La Touraine, which hag arrived safely at Havre, The passengers have reached this city and are unan- imoun in their praise of the coolnens and courage of Capt. Caussin in the t trying hours at sea. The captain pays tribute to the work of hia officers aad crew, but re- serves the highest praise for the Red Croms New York women nurses and doctors, who, with the fire raging under their feet, cheered on the men: The steamer, convoyed by tw French cruisers after the Rotterdam had left her, made Havre under her own steam.

Nothing inspires a Frenchman more to deeds of valor than the presence of pretty women. the Rotterdam arrived, shortly after daybreak on Saturday morning, we had the fire practically under control. The captain of the Rotterdam got his boats ready to transfer our passengers to the Hol- land-America liner. Our own boats had been ready, but not one of the passengers would leave La Touraine. Here again the American nurses led in the movement. They cheered the Rotterdam, but said that they would stand by the ship.” While the cause of the fire has not been learned, the report that the ship was fired by a German spy finds no credence by those who were on board, ebay, wan BUR ¥, 1615. pedis, ORDERED TO JOIN VERA CRUZ FLEET (Continued from First Page.) faster than the Georgia, and both ships starting to-day should be at Vera Cruz by Thursday night.

Pe Ady sreck Wilson, describing the American representations, to- oy said Carranza had been called upon by the United States to take the necessary steps to protect foreigners in Mexico City and had been informed of what the Washington Government had heard of conditions there and how serious they seomed to be. When asked whether the United States had any new intentions in Mexico the President reiterated that the Government had represented ite views on what appeared to be the situation in Mexico City. He added that in all such situations it was Necessary to discount reports a great | po deal, because, he said, certain persons would like to have the United States | intervene in Mexico, even if they had | to manufacture the facts on which to base the intervention, When the P the test note to Carranza was an ul- timatum, he replied the Administra- tion did not follow that course, but | expressed its views and acted accord- ingly.

He is in Hamburg now, and the authorities have no hope of laying hands on him before the end of the war. Grobe directed the smuggling of oplum by novel scheme. Sailors and firemen who came to this port wore beneath their blouses pocketed belts stuffed with the drug. Grobe was arrested and sent to prison. Grobe’s new scheme, it is charged, was to ship opium in shotgun cart- ridges. They were to be packed with the drug and topped off with shot by his agents abroad. If this jan failed, Grobe, it is alleged, hi jother even more ingenious. He is ja to have devised an imitation » made of papier mache and looking enough like the real thin, pass unnoticed in a big cargo of duty free tubers. These he planned to have | packed with opium and sprinkled freely among potato shipments from Europe.
