SAYS NO WARNING SHOT
WAS FIRED FOR SIGNAL
German Embassy Issues Statement
in Regard to the Odenwald
Detention.

The German embassy has issued a
statement charging that no warn
Ing shot was fired as a signal for
the odenwald to heave to, as is Gus
tomary in such cases. A report to the
Treasury Department from the col
lector of customs directly contradicts
this, saying a warning shot was fired
and unheeded. Secretary Bryan said
that an investigation was begun when
the incident was first reported, but
was not completed
Secretary Garrison said he had re-
ceived nothing further than the origi-
nal report from Lieut. Col. Burnham,
which told of the firing of shots across
the ships bow to stop her, and said
that in the presence Of the collector
of customs the German consul and the
commander Of the Odenwald had been
warned that force would be used If
necessary to prevent the vessel leaving
without clearance"
Government officials pointed out that
the case of the Odenwald was now in
the federal courts in Porto Rico, where,
if the captain felt that II he had been
unjustly treated. he could set up a
claim in his defense. Notification from
the embassy Tuesday. it was said,
was the first intimation that the Ger
man commander felt that he had not
been fairly dealt with.
Clearance was withheld from the
steamer because the port officials sus-
pected she was preparing to take sup
plies to German cruiser waiting
outside the harbor.
