GERMAN CRUISER
sunk j. s. SHIP
Prinz Eitel Friedrich at Anchor
Off Newport News.
GUARDED BY U. S. VESSEL
Grain Carrier William p. Frye Sent
Down by Warship After Crew
Was Rescued-PIans to
Leave Soon.

Washington, March 12.-The Ger
man cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich
arrived at Newport News on Wednes-
day, bringing the captain and crew
of the American grain vessel William
+. Frye, which the German warship
sunk at sea on January 81.
The owners of the vessel have
claimed that she carried no contra
band of any kind. Official and diplo-
matte headquarters were much per-
turbed over the matter, but nobody
was willing to make any comment un-
til the facts are fully established.
The customs officials at Seattle
wire that the manifest of the William
+. Frye, which was loaded there, show
that she carried 1852 bushels of
wheat
The Frye sailed from Seattle on No
vember 4 for Queenstown and Fail
mouth She passed Tatoosh Wash,
the next day and had not been heard
from since. The Prinz Eitel Fried
rich officers report that, on the ground
that she was carrying contraband of
war, the warship stopped the Frye in
the South Atlantic on January 81
took off Captain Kiehne, his wife and
crew, and then sunk the freighter.
The Frye was valued at $150,000
and her cargo at $280000.
The Prinz Eitel Friedrich put in at
Newport News, presumably for coal
and supplies. She also is said to be
in need of repairs and may intern
here. She is reported to have 1926
French and Russian prisoners of war
aboard. One report, which was I'M
confirmed, has it that the big steamer
was chased to the mouth of Chesa-
peake bay by British cruiser.
Immediately after she dropped an
went alongside. While at sea the Ger
man cruiser has been painted white
on one side and black on the other.
The Prinz Eitel Friedrich started
out on her career as warship from
Using Tao. She formerly was regu-
lar liner of the North German Lloyd.
She reached Using Tao shortly after
the outbreak of hostilities and the Ger
man marine authorities at that port
equipped her with naval guns and
turned her into an auxiliary cruiser.
She carries a crew of $50 men and
officers.
The cruiser sailed from Using Tao
before the Japanese attacked that port
and early in November she was report
ed off the western coast of South
America, where for several months she
has been active in the pursuit of Brit
ish and French shipping One of her
exploits was the sinking early in De-
cember of the British steamer Charcas
off Chile.
