Raiders Captain Defended
by German Ambassador

Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador. In discussing with State
Department officials today the sinking
of the American ship William P. Frye,
defended the action Of Capt. Thierich-
ems Of the German auxiliary cruiser
Prfnz Eitel Friedrich, contending he
acted under the declaration of London,
which was the only guide he had as
to disposition of prizes.
The ambassador, before going to the
state Department, conferred with Capt
Boy-Ed, naval attache of the embassy,
who returned yesterday from Newport
News, where he went to hear the story
of the sinking of the American vessel
from the commander Of the Prinz EiteL
Count Bernstorff did not present any
note to the State Department and said
he had received no instructions from
his government. He said he called to
discuss the question informally and to
learn what was the view OF the United
States.
Defends German Captain.
In defending the action of Capt. THE
richens. the ambassador contended that
when the officer left Tsingtau at the
outbreak of the war last August he
had nothing to follow but the declara-
ton of London In deciding what to do
with vessels he might seize. For this
reason, the ambassador argued. he had
a right to sink the Frye, as its cargo
of wheat was consigned ito order and
destined to a fortified port of the
enemy.
So long as there was no port into
which ne could take his prize. he had a
right, the ambassador contended, to de-
stroy not only the cargo. but the YES
sci itself.
Unaware Of Court Decision.
Furthermore. the ambassador argued
that the commander of the Prinz Eitel,
when he sank the Frye. did not know
that a German prize court, August 8.
had held that the mere fact that a
merchant ship was bound for an enemy
port was not sufficient proof that her
cargo was destined for the enemy.
The case of the Frye, however, the
am bassador said. would have to be set
tied in accordance with international
| law because of the present status of
| the declaration of London.
I'VE do not intend" he said, "to dis
| regard any Of the judialnA Riceties in
