First details, and details of specta'
cular interest they are, Of the success
full raid on the Tanning Island British
cable station carried out by the Ger
man cruiser Nurnberg reached Homo
lulu this morning by the little steamer
Krestel. .....- ,.s
This steamer, operated by Arm
strong & Armstrong, the British syn
dicate that owns Tanning and Wash
ington islands, arrived today from one
of its periodical visits to Tanning with
supplies for the industrial colony
there. ...=-.'s s1
According to the reports, the Ger
man landing force from the Nurnberg
not only made sure that the cable was
cut, but also that the station appar-
atus and buildings were wrecked be-
yond any hope of hasty repair by the
cable company or British forces. The
news that came today confirms earlier
reports here that when communica-
ton between Vancouver island, B. G.
and Australasia, by way IL Tanning,
was interrupted on September z, the
Germans did a complete job Of 1t.
On the other hand, one report has
1t that enough repairs have been made
to re-establish communication from
Tanning southwark. @
In some details, though not in essen
tiaI particulars, stories from various
sources aboard the ship were told here
a little at variance today. Captain
Tindell, skipper CT the Kestrel, de-
clined to make any statement this
morning and the cause of his peculiar
reticence was quickly disclosed when
he stated that he wanted to be paid
for giving the information to the news
papers. Failing to receive any offer
Of money in exchange for statement,
he relapsed into silence and would be
of no assistance in clearing up some
slight contradictions in the various re-
ports brought by those aboard the
Kestrel. -. a
Surprised or Deceived. - s@
One report Is that the cable station
colony was taken completely by sur
prise when the Germans landed; an
other that the Nurnberg few a French
flag and thus secured help in landing
party In a boat.
It appears that shortly after the
Nurnberg left Honolulu she must have
picked up a friendly collier lying
somewhere near local waters, for 1t is

brought coal from the Orient

One Of the first acts Of the Nurn-

on the night of September 1, was to

the cable station, landed an invading
party, armed with rifles and cut
lasses, who gained the northern end
OF the island by means OF several
small boats.
The visitors reached the island in
roundabout way, coming upon the
fcabfe station and completely surpris-
ing the colony OF score Of officers,
operators and laborers. Several quick
firing guns had been brought to shore
by the men on the collier.
From the Nurnberg Captain Carl
Won Schoenberg and several officers
and few men reached the island
from almost an opposite direction.
The German parties met within q
short distance Of the main building
where the intricate instruments for
relaying cable messages are kept
The operating staff then on watch
was not advised of the arrival Of the
Germans, according to reports. until
the delegation stepped across the
threshold and entered the apartment
occupied by the operators. Communi-
cation had been interrupted for some
hours and 1t was this that served to
engage the united attention Of the
British cable colony, resulting In the
unopposed landing upon the pat OF
