Karl Buenz Promised to Set
tie in Case Chartered
Ships Were Seized
or Destroyed.
SHOWN
BY NEW YORK LAWYER
Is First Evidence Connecting
Accused With Sending Out
of Supply ShipS-VeS-
sells Did Not Sail.

NEW YORK. Nov. %. - Karl
Buenz. managing director of the
Hamburg American Steamship Co,
on trial for conspiracy. guaranteed
TO pay all costs should the charter
ed vessels Fran and Somerstadt be
seized or destroyed by hostile ships
or be damaged while supplying Ger
man warships at sea.
That link was established today by
the government, when the conspir-
acy trial was resumed before Federal
Judge Howe
Ralph ]. NJ. Bullowa, a New York
admiralty lawyer. who represented
the masters of the Fran and SOmer-
stadt, produced agreements signed by
Buenz and Adolph Hachmeister. of
these guarantees.
The agreements contained these
clauses:
In case of damage to vessels by
reason of attempt to transfer cargoes
TO the warships of the empire of
Germany. the Hamburg-American
line will be responsible for all dam
age and demurrage during repairs"
I'm case Of seizure and forfeiture,
the Hamburg-American line guaran-
tees the value of the respective YES
sells"
Called TO Philadelphia.
Bullowa said he was called to
Philadelphia by the owners OF the
Somerstadt and the Fran who were
dissatisfied with their arrangements
with the Hamburg American line.
They were opposed to taking sailing
orders of the kaiser's supercargoes.
The witness said met Hachmeister
in the Bellevue Stanford hotel. Phil
adelphia, on Sept. %, and they went
to Hachmeister's room. There Bull
Iowa drew up the agreement. Hach-
meister signed one copy and an
other was sent to Buenz for his sig
nature. Both were read to the jury
The agreements contained six clauses
all of which were of similar tenor
to the two quoted.
Bullowa told of many more meet
I ings and conferences with Hachmeis-
ter, the owner of the Fran and the
ISomerstadt, and the agent, Turney
who engineered the charters.
1t was the first evidence directly
connecting Buenz with the sending
out of the supply ships and the men
ton of warshipS.
on cross examination Bullowa adj
mitted that he still represents the
owners of the Nepos and Mowinckel
who are in litigation.
Bullowa also admitted that Hach-
meister had the impression that If he
and Buenz signed the agreements
the Somerstadt and Fran would be
allowed 10 go out.
And you then forbade the ships
TO sail?' asked Atty. Rand for the
defense.
II did not the owner did" re-
piled Bullowa.
Ships Did Not Sail.
The ships did not sail, and Bull
Iowa admitted that he kept both the
ships and the agreements signed by
Buenz and Hachmeister.
MFR. Bullowa, will you tell the jury
/ if you acted in a spirit OF personal
and professional responsibility and
honor when you refused 10 let the
Fran and Somerstadt sail and re-
fused TO give back those agree
ments?" asked Rand.
Il did" was the reply.
Thorwald Olsen, captain of the
chartered ship Helm. was the next
witness.
