Destruction by Germans OF La
fayette and ROchambeau Fam
ily Collections Feared.

After stormy passage of thirteen
days from Havre the French liner Chi
cago came in her dock yesterday, three
days overdue. Westerly gales and
heavy head seas forced her to cut down
her speed at times TO four and five
knots. Captain Mace reported encount-
ering heavy hail squalls off the Banks.
Among the Chicago's passengers was
Nine. /. +. Thomson, a descendant Of
the Marquis de Lafayette, who brought
over a collection of relics from the
Lafayette family and also from the
family OF Rochambeau. The collection.
which includes manuscripts and small
antiques, has been assembled by Nine.
Thomson during the last twenty wears
and was on exhibition in Paris before
the war started. Fearing that il might
be destroyed or captured by the Ger
mans, she brought II 10 this country.
and It is said will give it to the Library
OF Congress.
