He smiled almost constantly and was
not the morose, brooding person one
might imagine him to be, nor the
world-weary individual looking for a
way to commit suicide honorably. He
loved life apparently as much as any
one, in his own fashion, and his mar
tyr-like and self-imposed task Of
hourly risIsing his skin was purely an
act of patriotism, way of serving
mankind by serving his country.
Prior TO joining the order the her
oic monk was in the artillery branch
Of the army When war was declar-
ed he ct permission to leave his cell
and get into his uniform again. His
object was to serve God by fighting
for King Albert. When the war is
over and Belgium restored to her
king, he says, he shall return to his
cell, his usefulness in the army fin
ished.
While we had been talking the rain
stopped. 1t wash now about 3 O'Clock
In the morning. The clouds thinned
and the moon came out as brilliant
almost as day. The little island look

attacks might have been jack-o-lant-

SINKING OF AMERICAN SHIP
CAUSES GRAVE COMPLICATION


WASHINGTON, d. c., March IL
President Wilson has cancelled all en-
gagements for the next three weeks
to enable him to personally assume
charge of the international situation.
He will not receive political callers
and will see only those officials in
touch with the various problems.
Action will be taken on the sinking
Of the American ship Frye by the
Eitel Friedrich, which created an un-
precedented situation. The president
has no fear Of warlke measures but
will insist that American rights be re-
pected. lie has ordered searching
inquiry into all facts of the case.
Whatever action is taken will be on
he results.
The inquiry opened today in Nor
folk and will be pushed to compile
ion. The captain and crew told the
same story. They stopped while al
most becalmed. They claimed the
protection Of the American flag, but
The cargo of wheat was declared a
,ontraband and the vessel was sunk.
If the inquiry shows these to be the
facts, America will insist upon repara-
ton. 1t is generally agreed this will
be Forthcoming and Germany will
eventually recompense for the ship
and cargo.
In negotiations with Germany, the
president viii make clear this govern
ment's stand on its original notifica-
tior and holds the country strictly ac-
roantablc for sinking American ships.
1t was unofficially reported here
today that England had sent a pro-
test against the Eitel's release, repre-
senting it to be an unfriendly act
for America to permit the ship to en-
Ter port mechanically exhausted, re-
ceive repairs and return to the sea
to resume the destruction of British
ships.
The ship has reached the first "a
hours in port it was stated by tho
treasury department, which has the
neutrality jurisdiction The Eitel now
must necessarily have to leave or in
terne. The length of stay is deter
minable locally, according to circum-
stances.
