In the same transaction the Golden
Cycle mine and mill at Cripple Creek
are transferred to the Vindicator Con
solidated Gold Mining Company, the
consideration being $1,300,000. The
transfer of the Golden Cycle mine to
the Vindicator company brought
about compromise of litigations be-
tween the two mining companies
said to involve about $1,000,00O which
means that the indicator practical:
ly gives $23OO,O00 for the Golden
Cycle mines.
Besides the mine in Cripple Creek

count of shortage of coal supplies,
The greatest of secrecy is maintained
concerning the presence of the vessel
here and information concerning her

That she was, chased into a neutra
port by British war ship. 1t is
known that she has aboard 336 pris
OncrS taken from the English ships

Immediately after the boat appear

GERMAN VESSELS
READY TO START .
IN NEW YORK
HARBoR AWAIT ORDERS.
GREAT BRITAIN FILES PROTEST
Ships Bunkers Are Full Of Coal and
Among Crews Are Large Num-
bers of Reservists-Also Alleged
Holds Full of Ammunition.
EsTAB. 1850.

Washington March 10. - Awaiting
instructions from Berlin, German
merchantmen in New York harbor
are prepared at moments notice to
leave for the high seas.
1t develops that Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo has advised Col
lector Malone at New York that II
the steamers should be provided with
proper clearance papers there is no
reason to object to their departure.
The masters OF the vessels have been
obtaining clearance papers at FREE
quent intervals in order to leave the
moment Instructions arrived.
The ships bunkers are full of coal.
1t is said that among the crews is a
large number of reservists, and the
further allegation is made that guns
and mounts and plenty of ammunition
are in their holds or can easily be
swung aboard
Immediately following the passage
by Congress of the neutrality law last
Thursday President Wilson himself
directed thorough examination of
the German ships to determine
whether they were preparing to go to
sea as auxiliary cruisers. The allies
representatives here charge the
search was not thorough, and that the
vessels can be equipped for war pur-
poses, including preying upon mer-
chantmen. Immediately after they
leave American waters.
The British government contends
that inasmuch as the United States
ordered the dismantling OF the steam
er Winchester, purchased by it and
placed in New York harbor for the
purpose of following the German yes
sells to sea, similar action should be
taken in the cases of the latter. Sec
rotary McAdoo takes the position,
which he claims is fortified by legal
advice, that he has no authority to
4 prevent the departure Of merchant
men.
1t is contended the German ships
have no place to go, have no route To
follow to prevent capture and would
carry no cargo. Their only mission,
it is declared, would be operations
against the merchant marine of the
enemies Of their country. That this
is their mission is shown, it is claim
ed, by the presence on board of the
reservists and equipment which would
enable their prompt transformation
into cruisers as soon as they pass
outside the marine league limit of
American Jurisdiction

for protecting foreigners there now
rests with General Villa.
Officials here are hopeful that "a
