THRILLING RUN
TO AMERICA OF
GREAT STEAMER
The kronprnizessin Cecile,
With S1O,OOO,OOO Gold
Aboard, Narrowly Es-
capes Capture by French
War Vessels.
nv TED PRESS

Bar Harbor, Me, Aug. 4.-The
North German Lloyd steamer kron-
prinzessin Cecile, carrying more than
$40 100000 in gold and whose where
abouts have been more or less of a
mystery since she sailed from New
York last Tuesday, arrived in the
harbor here today.
With a cargo of ten millions in gold
and a million in silver consigned to
French and English bankers and es-
timated to be worth over five millions
herself the Kronprinzessin Cecilie has
constituted probably the finest sea
prize ever open to capture.
AS she crept along the Maine coast
and into the harbor under the cover
of night, each deck. at every port
hole. was blanketed with canvass SO
that not a glenn of light betrayed her
wherea bouts. Her four white stacks
had been tipped with black paint so
that she resembled an English steam
ship.
At one time capture was imminent.
Captain Charles Pollak reported on
Sunday that he had intercepted a
wireless message from one French
vessel to another giving warning of
the Cecilie's proximity, but under
cover of a Providential fog, the North
German Lloyd liner escaped
The kronprinzessin Cecile left New
York early last Tuesday morning
bound for Bremen via Plymouth and
Cherbourg She had $50 first class,
130 second class and 736 steerage pas
sengers. About a third of the first
class are Germans. Most Of the rest
are Americans.
Friday night while a dance was in
progress, one of the passengers no
ticed that the position of the moon
had shifted to the port side. Before
the significance of this was realized
the captain called the men into the
smoking room.
Gentlemen he Said. war has
been declared between England,
France, Germany and Austria; we are
going back to America. We have
enough coal for our return home and
it is my earnest hope that We shall
not be intercepted by foreign war
vessels"

All Of European
Powers IvoEved
Looking to u. S.
BY ASSOCIATED. PRESS s.

Washington, Aug. because Of
the peculiarly favorable status of the
United States, all of the European
powers that may become involved in
the war probably will look to the
American embassies and legations to
protect their nationals resident in the
enemies country. To date, however
only two applications for such offices
have been made. Ambassador Dumba
has requested the state department to
take under it's protection Austrians
in Servia or any other European
country. Through its embassy, for the
present located at Newport, the Ger
man government also has requested
the good offices Of the United States
embassies, legations and consular Of
ffcers for the protection of German
subjects and their interests in Rus
sa, though the application is broad
enough in terms to cover the case of
Germans in France. In both these
cases the response has been made
that the United States government
would cheerfully undertake the obli-
cations proposed but with the reser-
walton that it would not thereby be
debarred from acting in a similar ca
pacity for any other government that
made a like request.

Nine Steamers and Several
Sailing Craft Cannot Go
to Their Home Ports.
SOME HAVE PART
CARGOES ABOARD
Austrian. German and Brit
ish Steamers Will Go Out
Into Harbor and Anchor,
Where They Will Be
Compelled to Remain In
til the Great European
War is Over.

With the exception of the Spanish
steamer Gracia, every veasel IN Pen
sacola harbor flying a foreign flag
will remain in port for an indefinite
period. Some OF tho vessels are part
ly loaded with lumber and timber.
while others are discharging cargoeS
and some are empty having just
reached port. The latter will not take
on any cargo, but will go out into the
stream and drop anchor to await tho
termination Of the great European
war. This was done yesterday by the
British steamer Twilight. which came
into port for cargo Of lumber and
timber. Other steamers are due I'm
port and these probably will follow
the action of the Twilight.
There are nine steamers, British.
German and Austrian, now in the
harbor, besides a number OF SAILING
craft The Spanish steamer GracfR
will leave this morning for Liverpool,
inasmuch as Spain is not engaged In
the greatest conflict the world has
ever known and therefore this vessel
can proceed across and deliver her
cargo to the consisnees.
Shippers said yesterday that the
commerce of this, as well as all other
ports of the country. would be stop
ped, as no vessels would take cargoes
across, owing to the risk, and even
II they could the ships could not Sc
cure any money on thkS SIDE. and
therefore would be compelled to re-
main in the ports they are now at or
else in some American port.
The German steamers in the har-
Dor are the Vogesen and Rudolf
Blumberg. The former is dischaFg1ng a
cargo OF kainit from Hamburg and the
latter is loading cargo. She will finish
takin. on her shipment and then
await results. The Lucia is the Aus
