German Liner,
in Harbor at
Newport Mems
Special by United Press Wire.

Special by United Press Wire.
Washington, March 10.-A New
port News message said the Gormal.
armored liner Eitel Frederick las
arrived there with 326 French and
Russian prisoners aboard and might
be interned. 1t was added the object
of the visit was unknown.
Admiral Beebe, in command of the
Norfolk navy yard, the bureau OF
operation, said the navy department
received the bare announcement that
the Eitel Frederick had arrived at
Newport News and that a revenue
cutter was alongside. Secretary Dan
iels Immediately consulted the Presi-
dent concerning the crafts presence
in an American port
Under ordinary circumstances the
ship would be allowed twenty-four
hours in port before being required
to inferno. The fact that it had pris-
oners on board presented a somewhat
different problem, however, and ii
was not ertirely certain what deci-
sion would be reached. The impress
sion prevailed at the department
that the Eitel Frederick was a CON
verted liner which was with Admiral
Won Stee off the Falkland Islands
and that it escaped following the en-
gagement with the British squadron
which sent Won Stee's feet to the
bottom.

NEW COPS TAKE
OATHS Of OFFICE

John Larsen and Frank Seiboth,
the new men appointed as patrolmen
at the meeting of the Board of AL
dermen Monday night, took their
oaths of office before City Clerk La
Roe yesterday afternoon, and will go
on duty as soon as they have com
pleted their uniforms. Chief of Po-
lice Burke is glad that the aldermen
decided to augment the police force
by two regular men, but says the ad-
ditlon is only drop in the bucket
of the number of men which should
be available to patrol the city.
Seiboth's uniform is nearly com
pleted, and he will probably go out
with one of the squads tonight. Lar
sens regalia will probably not be
ready until tomorrow or Friday.
The men are trying to get suits as
near like the average as possible,
though there is no exact standard of
uniforms for the department. 1t is
likely that some steps will be taken
to standardize the uniforms so that
each patrolman will wear a suit of
the same shade, variety of buttons,
etc.
The police committee is preparing
q revised manual of instructions for
patrolmen, which will be distributed
shortly, and Chief of Police Burke
desires all old manuals returned to
headquarters.

scholars, ranging in age from fifteen
to forty years, the work in indr%d q!
training, under the direction of tne
Middfesex County Vocational School
Board, was inaugnrated here last
night under conditions that bespeak
| unusual success. The actual regis
Itration was completed Saturday and
even then the number of applicants
| had far exceeded the expectations ol
| the board, but last night thirty-twc
new applications were received. The
conditions had already warranted a
great extension of the work that had
been outlined for the local school

ing school to the utmost, SO the new

the waiting list until some provision
can be made.
Three County Centers.

cational training Perth Amboy,

been placed In charge of the voca-
tional night school work here.
Several important changes have
been made in the plans in order to
accommodate the unusually large
number of scholars who have enroll
ed. The men in the advance classes
in machine drawing and carpentry
will report Monday and Wednesday
nights, while the scholars in the be-
ginners' classes will receive instruc-
tions Tuesdays and Thursdays In
the sewing and cooking classes the
beginners will meet Tuesday night;
the second section Wednesday night,
and the third section Thursday night.
The fourteen scholars enrolled for
printing will be instructed by NieIs
Hanson three nights during the
week. The entire course will con-
unue twenty nights, but the school
board has intimated that if demand
Is shown for continuance of the
work at the expiration of the time
that the course Will be heightened,
Mrs. j. H. Hill, who Is to teach the
sewing classes. will be given an
assistant who is to be appointed to-
day. George Guy, of the Standard
Underground Cable Works, the in
structor in machine draughting, and
Mr.. Elliott, who is to teach carpen-
try, will also have assistants.

Carranza's Reply ON Way.

Special by United Press Wire.
Washington, March 10:-General
Carran2a's formal reply to the latest
note from this government is on its
way to Washington. A preliminary
message from Consul Silliman said it
Is favorable.
Unofficial reports say that Obregon
already has evacuated Mexico City
and that Zapata now controls the
capital. If this is so responsibility
for protecting foreigners there now
rests with Villa and not with Car
rama. Officials were hopeful that
Zapata actually had re-entered the
capital. He had been there before
and had enforced law and order,
Villas influence with him is so strong
that officials believe he will be able
to do the same again if given the
chance.
The biggest gain through the
Villa-Zapata occupancy of the Mexi-
can capital officials here point out
will be the almost immediate restora-
ton of communication with the
United States through Ell Paso.
