gan WILSON TO INSIST UPON RELEASE OF YARROWDALE MEN Germany's Notice That They | Are Still Being Held Arouses Official Anger. TO MAKE NEW DEMAND. Germany, Already So In- formed, Will Be Told Ger- mans Are Safe Here. WASHINGTON, Fob. 13.—Further demands for release of the American prisoners of the Yarrowdale will be made on Germany. With the de- mands will go an explanation that the United States ts not seizing German ships or crews, and Is interested only | in seeing that the ships are not sunk as obstructions to American harbors. The State Department announced that, as its first step, it has instituted ) inquiries regarding Germany's inten- tions about the prisoners. Germany's tactics toward Ambassa- dor Gerard and other Americans has aroused offictais’ anger, and official notice that the Yarrowdale prisoners are again detained in Germany, has only served to increase this spirit toward Germany. The State Department sald last week Germany would learn of this Government's position toward Ger- man ships and crews and indicated it would forward Secretary of War Baker's statement on the subject as a reassurance to Germany. Officials supposed, until they heard of the detention of the Yarrowdale men, that Germany had been convinced of the safety of her citizens here, The Yarrowdale prisoners were to have been released from captivity just before the break in relations.

A leet lative Inquiry would not be radical and sweeping than what the Public Service Commission is about to undertake, It is predicted, The investigation by the Public Service Commission yrill not take more than two weeks, it was pointed ont by one Commissioner, This is be- cause the Commission is understood already to possess practically all the data and information required. One Commissioner called attention to the Public Service law which provides that the Commissioners shall always keep informed concerning “fran- chises, capitalization, adequacy and security of service” and other phases of laws governing railroads like the New York Central. ae BILL TO PUT CONTRACT UP TOP.

JOKER BILL HELD UP; AIMED AT BEACHES OWNED BY THE CITY (Continued from First Page.) | “I have therefore asked that it | be set aside.” MENT SHOULD FATHER IT. “Why the War Department should come to the ald of the bill I can't! see,” said Senator Burlingame. It has been truly sald,” declared Senator Foley, “that patriotism is the | last refuge of a scoundrel. The Court! use of the beaches at Coney Island belong to the people.” “As T understand it,” added Sen- ator Wagner, “the city authorities want this bill and not the Federal Government. There was a special act drawn and sent up here that allowed the particular property that the United st want to be trans. ferred to it, but for some reason it was not introduced, but Instead of it this general bill was introduced.” Senator E. R. Brown, the majority leader, ended the debate. He said: “While this bill may be designed for the completion of improvements re- quired to meet an emergency it is not Hmited in its language to that emergency, nor is the emergency referred to in it. IT think the bill should be so redrawn as to state Its specific purposes.” The Assembly to-day passed Anally the Mills bill to authorize the ceding of the Rockaway Point property to the Government, but did not act upon the charter amendment that would cnable the elty to dispose of sections of its waterfront as tt might deem proper. Any sort of a joker might be con- cealed in the general character of the Mills measure which was a com- panioa to the one ceding Rockaway Neck to the United States Govern- ment for fortification purposes.
