Brave And Daring Man" Was
Commander Of the Embden, Says
British Officer, Once in Custody

Newark. n. j., Nov. IA bravo
and daring man" was the commander
Of the cruiser Emden. terror Of the
Pacific. according to Robert Glegg,
captain of the British transport
steamer Lovat. one Of the vessels
sunk by the German warship which
now has been put out of action. The
views of Captain GlegE are set forth
in a letter written to his friend, VIII
liam H. Tweddell of South Orange.
What can we Think wrote the
capturing and sinking ships at his
will while u own men slept? He
was a brave man. When we left them
they were only 70 miles from Cal
cutta, and It was his intention to 20
up and sink the pilot cutter, but he
had to abandon that ironical Job. /
wash he had. carried It out, as it would
have awakened the authorities"
Captain Glesg, whose ship was en-
gagged for two years in carrying
coolies from China to Calcutta, was
on his way from Calcutta to embark
Indian troops when he. was stopped
by the Emden and his steamer sent
to the bottom within forty minutes
after being boarder.A
The crew OF the Lovat was put
aboard the. Hamburg-American liner
Markomannia. which had accom-
panied the Emden from Tsing-Tau
as a collier.

rights in sinking = transport.
I'VE were three days on board the

ACTION IN COPPER

Washington, Nov. Ex-senator
Hughes of New Jersey laid before the
state department protest from several
big copper companies of his state
against the attitude Of Great Britain
on the shipments Of copper to neutral
countries.
The petition sets forth that Great
Britain has no right to interfere with
cargoes plying between neutral coun-
tries and states that restrictions such
as Great Britain has placed on COM
merce will seriously threaten the cop
per industry of the United States.
Great Britain is insisting that cop
per cargies be sent to.a specific con-
signee in neutral countries. otherwise
1t will be suspected OF having an ulti-
mate destination in belligerent
country. The state department has en-
tered as vet into no agreement on the
subject. simply presenting the claims
and protests of American shippers in
hops OF facilitating trade.

nave spread carpet of the richest

recognize a rural scene in Holland.
Add a cluster of houses beside dyke

Weepsey lies only few miles from
The great city of Amsterdam That is
one of the startling contrasts of HoI-
land-the snuggest country in the
world, where the glittering. cynical
life of the metropolis almost rubs el-
bows with that of Arcadia; yet where
the two rarely mingle.
During all of their childhood
Gretchen and Hans were of this Ar
cadia. They knew little and cared
less about the great city that was so
near, and yet so far Gretchen helped
her parents with the fruits and flow
ers and vegetables grown for the
Weepsey market Hans tended his
mothers flock on the hillside, herding

Known as Sweethearts.
They met and parted a dozen times

tender words of mutual affection and
loyalty

that Hans and Gretchen were true
lovers They would look up from
their grazing whenever Gretchen APP

one day when Gretchen stopped

Hans said:

Hans dropped his staff and seized

From the smoking timbers a dozen
