 The cabin of the commander already has become the receiving station of 8 heavy mail. Letters pour In from all parts of the country with words of ad- miration for the daring exploits of the vessel as we'll as enthusiastic partisan praise for her officers.
 While the reporter talked with Captain Thierichens there was a knock at the docr and telegram was delivered. When the captain read it he looked up smiling. It was in German and said:
 Best wishes from Valparaiso Hearty congratulations"
 This is only one of many others" said the captain, talmost as soon as we were in touch with shore I received one from Manila. And the letters come from chil- dren, too, addressed in their baby hand writing. I tell you it touches the heart to get those kindly letters."
 Here the eyes of the German officer travelled to his deck where, smiling out of their silver frames, were a trio oi plump Beriner babies and their mothers
 The captain realized fully the concern felt in this country over the sinking of the Frye, and well thumbed copy oi the Declaration of London has a promi- nent place on his table.
 We have acted according to this,'' he said, touching the document, as if to dis miss the subject.

TO KEEP CLOSE WATCH ON AMERICAN PORTS

Washington, March 14-Closer watch in future is to be kept on ships which clear from American ports, in accordance with the governments de- termination to make more rigid its precautions against neutrality viola tions. No general orders have been issued but it was understood tonight that collectors of customs at New York and Boston have been told to scan the manifests of all vessels asking clear ance and to make such investigation as will satisfy them that no attempt is to be made to violate neutrality laws.
 Recent indictments in New York in connection with ships which are all legged to have furnished coal at sea to German warships are known to have caused the British embassy to cali the attention of the state department to what appeared to be lax enforcement of the law. 1t was only a few days ago that officials investigated reports of plot to hurry German merchant ships to sea from New York. Many oth- CT reports, all concerning attempts to get around the law, have been received at the state and treasury departments

Rome, March 14.-tVia Paris, ,--The Idea Nazionale asserts that Germany has tried to send rifles to the natives of Cyrenaica, eastern Tripoli for the purpose of arming a revolution against the Italian authorities. It is said these rifles are of French make, and were discovered at Venice in beer barrels.
 This attempt has assumed the char. acter of direct and shameless provoca- tion," says the newspaper. Tt was on merely suspicion that the Servian authorities were furthering a revolu- tionary agitation in Bosnia that Aus ; tria demanded immediate satisfact ction, failing to receive which she declared war
 Germany is doing much more than that in Tripoli. Her own official rep resentatives are intriguing against Italy, while from Berlin shipments of rifles and ammunition have been sent to arm a revolt"
 The Idea Nazionale also says that in Italy there are great numbers of German spies, who are "hearing and watching everything, taking photo- graphs and using wireless" These agents, it is said, have purchased tracts of land near points of stra- tegic military importance. The news paper says that Italian officials at
