ment have arrived here to begin the
government inquiry of the sinking OF
the Frye. Captain Klein and members
of the Frye's crew were examined un-
der oath regarding the events preced-
ing and succeeding the actual sink
ing. He said the Eitel halted the
Frye en- route to Queenstown while the
boat was almost becalmed. The Ger
mans boarded the ship, examined its
manifest, and characterized the grain
cargo as "contraband" because it was
Consigned on orders" Captain
Thierichens of the Priz Eitel ordered
the cargo thrown overheard, and his
orders were carried out. Fearing that
the work would be unfinished before
the arrival of the British, he ordered
all persons of the ship and then sank
her.

will discourage from coming here
those who are disinclined to work,
and will enable those who will work to
earn their keep.
