STEAMER TAKES
LONG Chance ON
REACHING PORT
Heavily Laden North Ger
man Lloyd Steamship
Sails for Bergen, Norway,
in Spite of Protests.

Philadelphia, Aug. 22.-Loaded to
the limit with coal and food supplies,
the North German Lloyd steamship
Brandenburg is steaming down the
Delaware river bound for Bergen, Nor
way This is the destination given in
the clearance papers and the captain
says the journey will require about two
months
Despite the protests of the British
ambassador in Washington, who de-
clared that the Brandenburg is an
auxiliary cruiser of the German navy,
local customs authorities gave her
clearance papers. The Brandenburg
is slow and her only chance for safety
lies In protection by German cruisers.
When the Brandenburg sailed her
appearance was changed so that old
mariners failed to recognize her as the
same vessel Her buff colored tunnels
had been painted black, and paint had
altered the appearance of her hull In
her hold were $500 tons of coal, an
additional 1000 in her bunkers, and
between decks were stored $500 tons
of supplies, said to be mostly food
stuffs. LuUuriously appointed state
rooms were loaded to their fullest ca
pacity with coal, and the air of mer-
chairman and passenger boat which
she formerly possessed was gone.
Both the captain of the Branden-
burg and the German consul at Phila-
delphia denied that the Brandenburg
was going to the relief of German cruis-
ers. They made positive statements that
the vessel was going to try to deliver
her cargo in Bergen where the price of
coal Is excessively high. They said that
the opportunity for making big profits
was worth the risk of capture by
French and English warships.

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS
WILL HALT UNREST

Portland, Ore. Aug 22-Industrial
schools will halt unrest among Ameri-
can workmen, John TAFT, local laundry
owner declared before the federal in
dustrial relations commission today.
THE great trouble today Is that
many of our people have no under
standing when they leave school of how
to support themselves" he said. "If
we would teach them useful occupa-
tions in the last few years of school
instead of giving them the high cshool
branches. the situation would be re-
neved.
"All manufacturers are looking for
good help. The question is not wages;
1t is efficiency. The inexperienced, In
efficient man causes industrial unrest
Mr.. TAFT declared the laundry bust
ness has fallen of recently and as a
result his plant is operating on part
time. The minimum wage increase was
met here by raising the price OF
laundry work. and many persons re-
fused to pay the advanced cost, he said
Japanese laundries. he mentioned In
cidentally. are increasing here and

citizens to resist. At the same time a
dispatch was sent to the eastern Unit
ed States from Ottawa saying that a
German cruiser had appeared at Prince
Rupert, taken coal and levied tribute

GERMAN VESSEL
IS NOT ALLOWED
TO LEAVE PORT
Clearance Papers Are Re-
fused the Steamer Mazat-
Ian on Orders From the
Treasury Department.

San Francisco, Aug. 22.-Clearance
papers were refused the steamer Ma
zatlan today by order of the treasury
department at Washington. The Ma
zatlan is German owned and is laden
with coal originally bought by the
German consulate here for delivery
aboard the German cruiser Leipzig at
sea.
Much perplexity has beclouded the
case of the Mazatlan. While the vessel
was still flying the German flag. her
attempt to deliver the coal was halted
by the port authorities.
The vessel was then placed under
the Mexican flag and representations
were made that the coal had been sold
to a firm of Mexican commission mer-
chants for delivery in Guaynnas, Mex
Dispatches from Washington yester-
ray said that there was no warrant n
the neutrality regulations for holding
any vessel carrying contraband of war
consigned to a belligerent. The vessel
was, of course, subject to seizure, but
that was the affair of her owners.
Collector Davis, however, held that
the peculiar circumstances surround
ing this particular case-the original
purchase OF the coal by the German
consulate, and the hasty transfer of
the vessel from one flag to another
made it an instance for special consid-
Grafton.
Collector Davis has been keeping
Washington in touch with the situation
and his instructions today were to con-
tinue to hold the Maaztlan until fur
there orders. The vessel is lying in the
stream, ready to sail, and alongside is

mission Twenty three cardinals met
late today in the first congregation to
arrange the temporary government of
the church and prepare for the con-
clave in September. when a successor
Ito Pope Plus X. will be elected.
Cardinals Martinelli and DID Puerto
are i'll and unable to be present. Cardt-
nal Seraphin Vannutelli, dean of the
Sacred college, attended, but being In
capacitated by an indisposition, his
duties were performed by Cardinal
Agliardi.

secret their discussion even to the
shedding of blood the cardinals per-
formed the traditional ceremony of
breaking the fishermars ring. The
rite, however, was not literally carried
out According to the rules of the
sacred college. the ring should be
broken and later reset and presented to
the new pope.
Today. after each OF the members
had identified the ring, 1T was found
that none had the strength to break
It, even though a hammer was en-
ployed. Aid was not at hand, as
Cardinal Della Volpe had not permitted
the presence of any one except the
cardinals and the latter finally decided
that the symbolieal ceremony would be
properly observed if the symbol of
office was scratched. This was done
1t is learned that the testament of
the late pope provides for the mainte-
nance of about 400 little ones made
orphans by the earthquake at Mes
sina and Calabria in 1908. The pope's
sister Anna. who collapsed when the
pontiff died, was better today and I'm
