Rome, April -8.-French General
Pau, who is at Naples, en- route from
Petroerad and the Balkan capitals,
corroborated the reports that the al
lies are preparing for cobined land
and sea attack on the DaroanelIes,
which Pau says will cause the fall OF
the Turkish forts.
It is believed here that, although
the Italian navy has concentrated
within reach of the Adriatic and the
army along the Austrian border, that
Italy is still endeavoring to obtain
a peaceful settlement with Austria of
territorial concessions.
It is not believed here that deci-
sive struggle between the European
beIligerents will begin before the early
summer which would allow Italy pIen-
ty of time.
A military expert in i socialist
newspaper here estimated that the bel
Iigerents have already lost total of
five million, nine hundred and fifty
men and spent eight billion, four hun
dred million dollars.
Turin dispatches say there is reason
to believe Austria has begun semi.of-
fetal negotiations for peace with the
allies in order that she will be better
able to deal with Italy.

Washington, April 7-Commander
. Thierichens of the German auxiliary
cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich inform
ed the collector of customs at New
port News Wednesday night that he
desired to intern his ship in Ameri-
can waters for the war.
The commander said he had been
obliged to determine upon this course
because relief which would have
made possible a dash for the sea,
had failed to arrive.
1t was announced at the navy de-
partment that the Eitel would be
taken to the Norfolk navy yard for
internment and her officers and crew
bound not to participate further in
the war.
The German captain delivered his
announcement in writing when Col
lector Hamilton boarded the Eitel
Friedrich with an imperative notice
lIOHH lue w dSlll gun SONcl uIhehl ina
the time for his stay in this port
would expire at midnight tonight and
that he must leave American waters
before o'clock tomorrow morning
Before the collector could deliver the
message. Commander Thierichens
handed to him the written announce
ment of his decision. The letter fol-
lows:
Il inform you | intend to intern
II. NJ. S. Prinz Eitel Friedrich. The
relief | expected appears not to ar
rive in time, so the number and
force of the enemy cruisers watching
the entrance of the bay makes to me
impossible the dash for the open seas
with any hope of success. | have
decided not to deliver crew and ship
to fruitless and certain destruction.
Being obliged for the courtesy shown
by all United States authorities,
am expecting your orders. l have
sent the same information to Rear
Admiral Helm, U. S. S. Alabama.
Respectfully,
"THIERICHENS.'
