BR|ND|LLA AGAIN
DETAINED BY ALLIES
American Tank Steamer Stopped
For Second Time; Early
Release Promised
BY Associated Press

Halifax, n. s., Jan. 2.--Word was
received here to-day that the Amer
lean tank steamer Brindilla, whose
arrest by a British cruiser and deten-
tion at Halifax last October was the
cause of diplomatic correspondence
between the United States and Great
Britain, resulting in the steamer'c c
release, again has been intercepted
off the cost of Scotland and taken to
Brest, France, by a French warship,
The Brindilla's first seizure off New
York last October resulted in a vigor-
Gus protest by her owners to the State
Department of the United States gov
ernment. At that time the Brindilla
had aboard a cargo of oil and was
bound ostensibly for Alexandria,
Egypt. A British cruiser conveyed
her to this port.
Acting upon the Standard Oil Com
pany's protest, the State Department
at Washington made representations
to the British government which re-
suited in the Brindilla's release after
she had been detained at Halifax for
about week. The vessel left Halifax
for Alexandria, Egypt, on October 81
last, and made the voyage without
further incident. She had not been in
home waters since.
The reason given for the Brindilla's s
seizure last October was that it was
suspected that she had aboard a cargo
of contraband destined for Germany.
