Germany Would Lose Millions in
e

Seizure OF Ships IN u. >. Forts.
A strong argument used by those
who believe there will be no war
between the United States and Ger
many is the fact that large num-
Der of ships are interned in Ameri-
can ports and that all of them would
be Immediately seized in the event
of declaration of war. The value
of these ships has been es :imated as
high as 100 m lion dollars.
The finest of the interned vessels
are tied up in the ports of New York
and Boston. The Hamburg Ameri-
can line has thirteen steamers in
termed, one at Boston and twelve
at New York, including the Water
land, largest vessel in the world,
valued at IL million dollars.

ASK FOR A BILL OF PARTICULARS
William Rockefeller and Twelve Co-defendans Accused of
Conspiracy in Connection With the New Haven Rail-
road MANAGEMENT.

Ponds upon a continuing conspiracy
beginning prior to three years before
the return of the indictment and that
1t will undertake to show that each
defendant became a party to the con-
spiracy during that time; but he add
ed, "sinee this is a conclusion to be
reached by the jury from all the evil
dence to be introduced and is not ma
terial or determine the exact time any
particular person became a. party to
the conspiracy, it is not material as
it is not practicable to allege or prove
the relationship in point of time be-
tween the making of any particular
contract or combination or arrange
ment and the entry of such person
into the conspiracy"
Continuing, Mr., Swacker declares:
1.-The names of all common carriers
affected or intended to be affected by
the conduct of the defendants, are Civ
en- in the indictment and other require
ment of particulars. Each of these
concerns was or would have been en-
gagged in New England in Interstate
business and contributed to the COM
petition the New Haven company was
compelled to meet" While asking for
modification of this request, Mr..
Swacker adds:
THE government Is not required in
the proof of its case and does not in
tend to develop the facts as infinitely
as called for in the requests and ought
not to be required to make allegations
of that which it does not intend to
prove"

New York, April 21.--A motion for
a modification Of the order of Federal
Judge Hunt that the government be
required to furnish a bill of partic-
ulars for William Rockefeller and u
co-defendants, who, with others con-
nected with the New Haven railroad
management past and present, Is ac-
accused of criminal conspiracy. was
made here today by Frank M. Swack-
er. assistant United States attorney
general.
Mr. Swacker holds that several of
the requests should have been dfsal-
Lowed and that others should be mod
flied. With reference to the request
allowed by Judge Hunt, requiring the
government to furnish Mr.. Rockefeller
specifying the exact offenses charged
in the indictments, Mr.. Swacker says
it should have been disallowed because
1.-The government should not be com :
PEELED to disclose it's evidence and
should not be precluded from ascer-
tanning and using any additional evil
dence it may hereafter be able to Sc
cure;" and that the request calls for
practically all of the governments evil
dence upon which a conviction can be
had and limits it's proof to that fur
nished, which will most seriously jeop-
ardize the prosecution.
Mr.. Swacker in his motion further
states that it is not necessary for the
government to determine or show the
manner of means by which any of the
defendants came into the conspiracy,
because his conduct covering a con-
siderable period will be the evidence,
from a consideration of the whole of
which the fact Of his connection with
the conspiracy will be inferred.
The prosecuting attorney declares
that the requests for the names Of the
other common carriers. which it is
claimed were mot already under the
influence. management. domination or
ownership of the alleged conspirators
when a certain defendant became a
party to the conspiracy, and the names
of each of the common carriers and
the amount of the capital stock Of each
outstanding at all times mentioned in
the Indictment, should have been dis
allowed. His reasons are, he says,
that the first Of these requests calls
for statement of evidence which may
be admissible but is not essential and
that as to the second the government
does not expect to show the exact
amount of the capital stock in many
cases, and that so far as the informa-
ton itself is concerned, it can be OBJ
tanned from numerous public sources.
Regardir~ another request for par
ticulars allowed the defendants, MIR

Within Va week the officials of the

DR.. Barnum of Brousa, not far from
the Sea Of Marmora, writes reassur-

Far-seeing men in the Dutch indus

ready making preparations to benefit
from the results of the war from an
economical point Of view.
Among the leaders of industry and
commerce here the opinion is almost
unanimous that a redistribution Of the
avenues Of trade Is certain to be
brought about. These men, Of course,
take the future position Of Holland
first into consideration. In this con-
nection they look toward the Dutch
colonies, which form an empire many
times larger than the home country
itself and whose requirements have
been hitherto been supplied to a great
extent by Germany and Great Bri-
tain.
The Dutch East Indies, for instance,
have depended almost entirely upon
foreigners for their imports. Now,
however it Is intended to make great
efforts to push purely Dutch products
and to create an interest on the part

Mission Schools Are Proceeding As

More than 200 people located in
more then twenty stations and twice
as many oAtstations represent the
American Board of Commissioners for
Foreign Mission in Turkey and the
Balkan states at present. With
fighting going on in practically all d.
rections around them it is reassuring
to know that the mission chools are
proceeding as usual, with full at
tendance, the mission property is re-
spected; and in most cases the mis-
sionaries are being treated with con-
sideration. Some supplies consigned
to mission stations, notably medicines,
have been requisitioned but friendli-
ness to Americans has seemed to be
the rule.
Trebizond, on the shore If the Black
