KRONPRINZ WILHELM 4
DASH rs EXPLAINED

New York. Aug. 13-The story of the
battle between the Bristol and the
Karlsruhe discloses for the first time
the apparent purpose OF the North
German Lloyd steamship Kronprinz
Wilhelm In making an unannounced
dash from this port under cover OF
the darkness 10 days ago, bearing 5000
tons of coal. 1t was assumed by many
that she had gone to supply fuel to
German cruisers on the Atlantic.
There was no obstacle at that time
to keep the steamer from slipping
through the Narrows and past Sandy
Hook with her super structure painted
gray and a long box forward, which
was believed to have contained a big
gun. Officials of the North German
Lloyd Line deny that the ship was
armed. declaring that the mysterious
box contained an extra crank shaft
and said the vessel was off on a voy-
age which they hoped would get her to
Bremen. 1t was admitted that she car
ried more coal than she needed for
her own purpose and no explanation
was made as to why she left her HOBO
!. ken piers in advance Of her scheduled
sailing time. subsequently one or two
more Of the German vessels now in
port here We're apparently in readiness
to sail similarly, but the neutrality
regulations were established>.

BAR HARBOR GIRLS
NEARLY DROWNED

Bar Harbor, Me-, Aug. 13-Two SER
want girls in the household of Mrs. Will
liam NJ. Kingsland narrowly escaped
death by drowning on Wednesday after
noon. The girls walked to the foot of
the bar leading to Rodick's island to go
in swimming accompanied by Dennis J.
Egan. Mrs. Kingslands butler. They
waded out to the bar and were drawn
off by the strong tide. AS they stepped
on the bar they found themselves in the
water over their heads and shouted for
help. Mr. Egan heard their cries and
ha Stoned to their assistance. When he
reached them one Of the girls had given
up and had grasped the other with
death grip and was fast pulling her
down. Mr. Egan held their heads above
water until Mr.. Lamb, swimming instruc-
tor at the swimming pool. hearing their
cries. drove over and got the girls safely
ashore.
One of the girls was unconscious and
the other In an exhausted condition. They
were taken to Mrs. Kingsland's where
doctors were called and brought them to.
They have both recovered from their ex-
perience and will no doubt be careful
about going over the bar at high water
in the future.

Clone, aged "a, walked backwards to his
death off the four-story staging at the
Central Maine General hospital, Lewiston,
Wednesday afternoon. Three hours later,
at 6 O'clock Wednesday afternoon, he
died inside the walls OF the hospital he

ing what happened to him.
Thursday the body was shipped from
the undertaking rooms of Plummer &.
Merrill, Auburn, to Brockton, Mass,
where son, before motherless, waits for
the last glimpse at his father. His
brother Joseph survives.
The cause of the accident went with the

he misjudged the width of the staging
and was nearer the edge than he planned.
He struck on the head and shout
ders and the cervical vertebrate was
broken. He did not suffer pain from
the moment his neck was broken nor
did he open his eyes. His collar bone
was broken.

passing them he stepped off. with the
result that the wheel struck him and
both he and Clarke were thrown into

OPPOSED TO THE
FLOATING LOANS
IN U. s. FOR ANY
NATION AT WAR
President Has Reached
No Decision as to
ACCESSIBILITY

Washington, Aug. 13.-President
( Wilson was confronted today with the
problem of whether American bank
.ers shall be permitted to float loans
In the United States for any of the
countries engaged in the European
war.
Though the President has not reach
ed a final decision, he is strongly OPP
posed to the idea. The question arose
through the desire of J. p. Morgan
& CO., to float loan of several hum
bred million dollars for the French
government Inquiry was made of the
state department by the Morgan firm
as to whether the fioatation of such
a loan would be regarded as a viola
ton of neutrality.
Besides j. P. Morgan & Co., It is
understood that another New York
banking house is DESTROYS of floating
q loan for Austria, but the state de-
partment has not yet been approached
SO far. as could be learned tonight,
with any formal inquiry as to ques-
tions of neutrality in loans.
The possibility of stirring up i'll
feeling among the numerous bodies
OF citizens in the United States of
particular sympathies in the European
war is regarded by the President as "a
potent reason for discouraging the
floating OF loans.
On the side of the bankers, however,
the argument advanced is that the float
ing Of loans is purely commercial
transaction in which the government is
not obliged to interfere. The bankers do
not desire government aid or guarantee,
but merely the assurance that their ac-
ton would not be regarded as violation
OF neutrality
= Gold, like coal or any other war sup
ply, has been regarded as contraband on
the high seas and subject to seizure. So
If the American government permitted
the fotation of loan, American bankers
would send their hundreds of millions
across the seas subject to capture by
German or Austrial ships and could not
expect help from the American govern
Inent in securing reimbursement for any
losses sustained. The entire question will
be discussed at tomorrow's cabinet meet
ing. F 59a.
]. P. Morgan arrived here to attend a
conference tomorrow with President Will
son and Secretary McAdoo of bankers
and business merato devise plans for the
movement Of crops to Europe 1t could
not be learned whether he will discuss
with officials the subject of foreign loans.

NORTH ATLANTIC
DECLARED TO BE
SAFE FOR GREAT
BRITAIN'S SHIPS

Halifax, n. S., Aug. 13.-The informa-
ton given out here on the arrival of the
cruiser Suffolk today was to the effect
that in the last 10 days the fourth cruis-

tic absolutely safe for British shipping.
Not a hostile ship is north of the West
Indies now, she reported, and such as
are now in waters farther south, it was
assumed, are encountering difficulties in
keeping at sea and procuring supplies,
owing to the entire absence of coaling
stations. The British officers believed
that it would be only short time before
the Karlsruhe and the Dresden would be
