CUSTOMS OFFICIALS SUARDING
GREAT INTERNED STEAMERS
NEW YORK, April 3.—Six hund
red customs inspectors with United
States destroyers are guarding night
and day twenty-seven interned Ger
man ships and are ready to seize
these upon a declaration of war.
It is announced that the German
ships in this port are worth
$280,000,000 and comprise the
flower of the German merchant
marine.
Similar action will take place at
every port.
BALTIMORE, A^ril 3.—Interned
German sailors in this port fought
a pitched battle with their militia
guard on the pier today and were
finally overcome after fast and
furious battling. The men were de
termined to make a dash for liberty
although they have only been under
nominal surveillance. In the end
all of the interned sailors were
placed under close arrest and all
freedom of movement has been de
nied them. The scene created great
excitement throughout the city.
PHILADELPHIA, April 3.—As at
other ports American officials are
only awaiting a declaration of war
to take possession of German ships
in this port, the value of which
will be enormous. It was reported
that a company had been formed
to lease or buy these valuable
prizes from the government, but it
is more likely that they will be held
to be used as transports for troops
which will be sent to Europe, as
now appears almost certain.

This editorial announces that the

early date and that they will lie so
specific as to be beyond refusal upon
the part of the enemy powers to

this event, with Russia at peace
the gigantic resources of the Rus

resolution to death under these cir

The impatience manifested i / the
war supporters in Congress today
was extraordinary and came near in
juring the Senator from Wisconsin.
This is deplored in all shades of
papers as an unseemly show of in
tolerance.
