Steamships in some respects are
like individuals. Some run a hum
drum existence from the time they
are launched until they finally find
their way into the hands of junk
dealers, who strip them of all that
remains of their past usefulness, then
consign them to the flames. Others
are precipitated into stirring events
and scenes from the moment they en-
ter active service. One of the latter
kind is the steamship Hermine, which
arrived this morning from the Medit-
erranean with cargo of lemons, a
variety of other fruits, sumac, etc.
She was built in 1901 at Stockton-on-
Tyne for the Hermine Steamship
Company, of Austria-Hungary, and
hardly had time to show what she
was worth to her owners as freight
carrier between the Mediterranean
and America before she was char
tered by the Russian Government to
help stock up Vladivostok. Her
christening name was Nina, but un.
der the Russian flag this was changed
to Frieda.
She loaded a cargo of provisions in
the Black Sea and steamed out to
the Far East, in charge of Capt.
Ear, an Austrian. Arrived there, the
Russian authorities, taking little
thought to the benefits which they de-
rived from her fresh supplies, under
took to place the captain under ar
rest, because he, an Austrian, pre-
sumed to command ship under the
Russian flag. The Austrian Consul
Immediately bestirred himself to tel
egraph on to the Austrian Embassy
at ST. Petersburg, through whose in
fuence the arrest was prevented, and
Capt. Ear saved from what might
have been exile in Siberia.
But if they did not wholly succeed
in their purpose, the Russian author
tiles at Vladivostok accomplished
their purposes in part, for Capt. Ear
was relieved of the command of his
vessel, which was turned over to the
first officer ON board, a Russian. In
his charge, therefore. she returned to
the Mediterranean. On her return
she was transferred back to her own
ers, once more was changed again,
to Hermine, the appellation under
which she has Since been plying in
