FOJR SUITS AGAINST
 LLOYD LINE DROPPED
U. s. Court Holds Kronprinzessin CeciIe Commander Did Right Not
 to Complete Voyage.

Boston. Feb. 2-The four suits brought by the Guaranty Trust com- panv the National City bank and Charles w. Rantoul Jr., of New York and Maurice Hansenns of Brussels against the North German Lloyd Steamship company, to recover more than S2,OOO0OO dollars in damages be- cause the steamer Kronprinzessin Cecilie failed to complete her voyage to France and England just before the outbreak of the war, were dis missed today.
 The Kronprinzessin Cecilie, with nearly $5,OOO,000 in gold shipped by the Trust company, and S3,0o0,ooO consigned by the National City bank, and destined for London and Paris had sailed from New York and was within a thousand miles of the English coast, when Captain Polack received a wireless message from his company stating that war had "broken out" He turned back on Jury 31, and found refuge in Bar Harbor, Me.
 The decision made by Judge Hale in the federal district court stated that Captain Polack acted with due regard to the safety of all interests and that in view of his information he acted as any shipmaster would.
 In disposing of the contention of the libelants that the statement of the company that war had broken out was not true, the court said that the company was under the necessity of sending the captain an arbitrary or der, and in the circumstances were justified in stating. that war had been declared. -' RantouI and Hansenns sought dam age because as passengers they were not taken to their destinations "
