Of the world since the arrival at Nor

Althousn the collector reported over
the telephone shortly after 10 o'clock
this morning that he had not boarded
the vessel, he evidently had been in
communication with her sufficiently to
get some of the details of her remark
able experience. From what he report
ed. 1t appears that the vessel was
chased by a big sca-going German sub
marine after she hal left the Moroccan
coast on her way back to Liverpool with
about l66 passengers and 2OO German
prisoners of war captured I'm South
Africa A dent in the side of the APP
pam bore evidence Of the fact that the
submarine had to fire solid shell at
the vessel before she came to stop.
This resort. however. was discounted
by later press reports from Norfolk
stating that German tramp steamer
had made the capture.

Attacked Other Ships.

1t also Is known that Collector Hamil-
ton reported that on the way across the
Atlantic the German masters Of the
British liner deliberately used her to
attack other British commerce vessels,
some of which, 1t is believed, were sunk.
and their passengers and crews taken
aboard the Appam.
Pending determination by the state
department of the status OF the vessel
and the obligations of neutrality rest
ing on this Government. Collector
hamilton was instructed to take the
necessary steps to prevent departure
OF the vessel. In any event 1t is the
intention OF the state Department to
release the passengers on the ship.
The fact that tn" Appam was used
I~Self as a commerce raider following
its capture. may he taken by the state
department as Justification tor intern
ing the vessel AS a ship Of war, hut
this was hY no means definite.

Hague Treaty Conflicts.

The articles of The hague convention
of 1907 are in oDcn conflict on the Uues-
ION of the Obligations resting on n neu-
tral power into one of whose ports a
prize is brought. Articles Il and - ap-
pear to require the neutral government
to release the prize vessel, whereas
Article %. under certain circumstances
requires such a power to hold her pend
ing n prize court decision as to whether
she is lawful prize. lnasmuCh. how
ever, as the United States did not ad-
here to ~" latter article, the proSump-
tion in ofIs1iaI circles Is that after the
facts are all cleared mp, the vessel will
be released.
Article 91 reads as follows:
"a prize may only he brought into
a neutral port on account of ums"a-
worthiness. stress of weather or want
1T must. leave as soon as the cir
cumstanccs which justified its entlN ar"

power must order 1t to leave at once.
should it fail to obey. the neutral pow
or must EMPLOY TN" m""ns at its dis
poSal to release II with its officers and
crew and to intern the prize crew"
Articl" 90 reads
"A neutral power must, similarly. r"-
lease a prize brought into one of its
ports under circumstances other than
those referred to in article y.
Article IS. on the contrary, says:
neutral power may allow prizes
to enter its ports and roadst"aHdF'

trated ronding tho decision Of . priZ"
