KARLSRUHE LOST
 A GERMAN REPORT
Crew Said To Have Reached Home Port-Ship Made Splendid Rec
 ord As Sea Rover.

COPENHAGEN, April 6.-Another version of the alleged destruction of. the German cruiser Karlsruhe is pub. lished here and the account purports to emanate from a German captain serving with the Landsturm at Will helmshaven.
 The captain is reported to have as- serted that the crew of the Karlsruhe arrived in Germany on board the Ger. man liner Rio Negro early in Decem- Der, but that this fact and the fact that the disaster had occurred were kept secret SO that the British cruis- CTS would continue their search for the German sea raider.
 Early in December it was reported that the Karlsruhe had evaded the British fleet and arrived in a German port.
 Recently there have been no re. ports of the actual movements of the Karlsruhe, which early in the war gained fame as sea raider, although there have been several unconf1rmed statements that the cruiser had met with disaster. One of these stories emanated from a sea captain, who as serted that he had seen the hulk of the Karlsruhe on the beach of one of the Grenadine Islands of the Windward group. in the Caribbean sea. The vessel, he said, either had gone ashore in a storm or had been destroyed by an explosion.
 A London dispatch on Wednesday might quoted a Copenhagen core. spondent as asserting he had been in formed from an authoritative source that the Karlsruhe had been destroy ed by an explosion and that some of her men were lost. He said that be- tween 15O and 200 men were rescued and taken to a German port.
 The statement that the men from the Karlsruhe arrived in Germany on the steamer Rio Negro early in De- cember possibly may be accurate. The Rio Negro according to the last reports of her movements in ship. ping records sailed from Rio Grande do Sul. Brazil, on a date which is not stated, and arrived in Swine. < munde, Germany, about December 6.

 The tone of the note and its firm. ness has given keen satisfaction in this city and it is hoped that the belligerents will be forced to the un- derstanding that the United States will insist upon it's rights as a neu- tral power being respected and is de- termined to back up with force if nec- essary continued violations, besides demanding heavy indemnity for loss caused by the British embargo against Germany and the German submarine blockade against England.

BRITISH VIOLATE
 OUR NEUTRALITY
Send Supplies From New York To Warship Outside the Harbor-
 Arrests To Follow.

NEW YORK, April 6-Dudley Field Malone, collector of customs at this port, charges that the British war ships now operating near the entrance to this harbor are constantly receiv- ing fuel and supplies from ships which leave this port and meet the British warships outside the three-mile linn it, where the supplies are transferred from the merchant ships to the naval vessels This is a violation of in ternational law and violates the neu, trality of the United States and the men involved in the transactions are to be arrested and punished.
 The fuel and supplies are sent on English and American ships which are supposed to be destined to Ca nadian ports and the ships arrive at the Canadian cities, where the GUS toms officials give them clearance and suppress the fact that the ships reach port without cargo. The same process is repeated time and again and the British ships are receiving fresh provisions and plenty of fuel without leaving the stations near the entrance to the harbor.
 The federal grand jury will start an investigation at once and indict- ments will follow if the evidence can be gathered to convict the steamship men and the British officials.
