Reports that the Prinz Eitel Fried
rich would be towed to New York
within the three-mile limit were cur
rent here tonight following the ar
rival of a big seagoing tug equipped
with wireless which tied up close to
the German cruiser.
Marine men said his would be pos
sible in view of the fact hat the Eitel
is drawing less than IS feet Of water.
The was given credence in
view OF the reported request to Wash
ington last night for protection within
the three-mile limit.
What would be the object Of such q
move was variously explained. 1t
would not change the status Of the
ship as long as she did not leave the
Jurisdiction of the United States and
she would have to be interned in New
York just as she would be in remain
ing here after the expiration Of time
allowed for repairs. 1t has been sug-
gested that the German government
would prefer to have the ship in
termed in New York.
Another suggestion is that the COM
mander Of the German cruiser seeks
to tempt war ships OF the allies to
commit a n unneutral act by attack
ing her in American waters or to
lure them far away from the South
Atlantic for the welfare Of some other
merchant raider.

means Of enforcing neutrality within
the waters of American Jurisdiction.
While it is not believed that Brit
ish or French ships would violate neu-
trality by coming inside the three mile
limit to attack the Eitel Friedrich as
she left, ii is said to have beer re-
garded as necessary for this govern
ment to provide means to meet any
possible emergency case.
On leaving Newport News the Eitel
could remain in coastal waters within
the three mile limit. proceeding up or
down the coast until "a hours after
receipt of notice from the American
government to depart. To see that
neutrality regulations are not violated
in this regard is advanced here as one
of the reasons for sending the Ala
bama to Hampton Roads.
The Alabama should arrive at
Hampton Roads Tuesday. This is re-
garded here as an indication hat the
Eitel's limit does not expire before
Tuesday.
