w many probably will repudiate
the action Of the captain of the Prinz
Eitel Friedrich in sinking the Amer
lean ship william p. Frye and make
reparation for the loss of the vessel
and cargo. in the opinion of German
officials here
Inasmuch as the United States and
Germany are in accord on the quest
tion Of shipping foodstuffs from neu-
tral country 20 civilians in belligerent
territory, no issue is expected 10 be
raised by Germany over the right or
the cargo to be sent to its deJtina-
ton without interruption.
Count Bernstorff, the German am
hassador, after a visit TO the state
department today, indicated that he
believed the case would be settled
without much difficulty. He told COun-
seor Robert Lansing what the cap
tain Of the Prinz Eitel had told Cap
tain BOy-Ed, the na' 'al attache Of the
German embassy as to the sinking OF
the American ship; but the ambassa-
dor reserved his own opinion on the
action Of the commander, saying he
had no instructions from his govern
ment.
Captain Thierichens of the Prin1
Eitel informed captain Boy-Ed that
his only guide while at sea and for
many months out of communication
with his government was the declarQ-
tion Of London. This would permit
the destruction of a neutral prize If
carrying a cargo, more than hair or
which could be proven to be contra
band. provided it was impossible to
take the vessel to home port with
out endangering the cIptOr warship
Since the outbreak Of the war the
German government has defined its
views on shipments of conditional
cCntraband and has argued that food
stulfs must be prov en- without any
doubt to be bound actually to the bel
lgerent forces of an enemy before
they can be seized.
No Views Expressed.
The German ambassador sent a full
report to his government of the story
of the German captain and the rea-
sons for the latter's action at the time.
From the fact that Count Bernstortf
had presented to the state department
Captain Thierichens side of the case,
the inference was general earlier In
the day that the ambassador had de-
Tended the commander. Later II de-
Veloped that the ambassador himself
had expressed no views on the sub
ject to the state del artment.
1t was said on good authority that,

WASHINGTON'S POLICE CHIEF

Unusually tall, slender, fine-fea.
tured, soft.spoken, Of highest charac-
ter. executive ability and broad social
vision-that is Raymond w. Pullman,
the new chief of police of the city OF
Washington, He has never been a
policeman, and admitted when ap-
pointed that he knew little OF the
practical side Of the police business,
having been newspaper man. but
the commissioners of the District of
Columbia were satisfied they had
chosen the right man. and the people
OF the capital city believe they were
right.
Pullman is Washington product
and his new rank Of major sits easily
on him, for he was commander of one
Of the crack military companies that
are part Of the school system of Wash
ngton.
There is one problem in Wash
ington where the police department
can be specially helpful" said Mr.
Pullman. In discussing the department
