M0EWE DID NOT
CAPTURE APPAN
SAYS CAP TAIN
Says German Raider Was One
Which Performed Wonder
full Feat. ....
NOTHING BUT $1So,000
IN GOLD BARS TAKEN

Mex York, Feb. S. 1.-The ~ German
raider that captured the British steam.
ship Appam was the Ponga, according
| to Captain II. G. Harrison, former
master of the Appam, who reached
here today from Norfolk. on the steam
ship Hamilton. With Captain narri-
son were his officers and crew, num-
bering $50, who probably will be sent
to England on the White Star liner
Baltic.
Captain Harrison said he had no
other recourse than to surrender when
he discovered the warlike character
Of the ship that stopped him.
When the cruiser was less than two
ship-lengths away, he was ordered to
board her with his deck officers and
number of his men.
The name of the raider, he declared,
appeared in English on the naviga-
tion charts hanging in the vessels
pilot house and chart room, where he
was summoned by the commander.
Nothing was taken from the Ap-
pam, except shipment of gold bars
from South Africa valued at about
$1SO,00O," ne said. "The Germans evil
dently knew we had this gold, for l
was asked about it the first thing
when l stepped onto the deck of the
raider.
81 have no complaint to make of the
way we were treated by the Germans.
l was invited by Lieutenant Berge
each evening at six o'clock to have a
West African cocktail with him."
|. Won't Decide Ownership.
The question Of ownership of the
British steamship Appam, brought in
to Hampton Roads by German prize
crew, may remain an open issue until
the end of the war with the ship
meantime held in the custody Of
American officials at Newport News.
Conflicting claims on behalf OF Ger
many and England are being consid-
cred by the state department and neu-
traliry board, but there has been no
indication of decision.
Officials generally are inclined to
the view, however, that the case must
be governed by the Prussian treaty
of 1928, which grants Prussian prizes
clares that ''they may freely be car
ried out again at any time by their
captors to the places expressed in
their commission" A literal construc-
ton of that provision, which some off,
cials favor, would permit the Appam
to remain indefinitely at Newport
News.
One hundred and fifty-three bags of
first-class mail from the British
steamship, Appam, brought here by
a German prize crew, were forwarded
for shipment from New York to Eng
land and France. What disposition
will be made of the parcel post on
the Appam still is undetermined.
Several mild cases of malaria have
developed among the Germans on the
Appam and the commander was CIV
en- permission today to come ashore
for medicine and other necessities.

Wet Weather and Camels.

Camels are very sensitive to mois-
ture In the region of tropical rains
they are usually absent, and if they
come into such with caravans the re-
suits of the rainy season are greatly
feared. The great humidity of the air
explains the absence of the camel from
the northern slopes of the Atlas and
from well wooded Abyssinia. This
sensitiveness expresses itself in the
character of different races. The fin
est, most noble looking camels, with
short silklike hair, are found in the
interior of deserts, as in the Tuareg
region in north Africa, and they can
not be used for journeys to moist re-
gions. Even in FeZZan, south of Trip,
oil, the animals are shorter and fatter,
with long coarse hair, and in Nile
lands and on coasts it is the same
These animals, too, are less serviceable
as regards speed and endurance

Chicorv In France.

Chicory, so extensively raised in
France. is harvested either By hand or
by blowing. AS fast as the plants in
one line are pulled tle roots are gather
ed in heaps after the removal of the
leaves and are roughly cleaned. They
are then transported 70 the factories,
where they are mechanically washed
i'll flowing water and dumped on 4 per-
forated conveyer that permits them to
drain while travelling toward the root
cutters The roots when cut III small
pieces. are conveyed TO the malt kilns
or special driers. where they remain
thirty-six hours or more, and after
cooling they are bagged. The chicory.
having row become friable, passes into
a series of crlshers. After each crush
ing the broken material is passed
through sifters that divide it into four
grades. From the crushers the chicory
goes to the roasting retorts and then
receives a final manipulation. that Of
tinting. which consists in giving the
grains coating of impalpable chicory
dust The last operation is that Of
packing the chicory, either by hand or
BY machinery.

Double Action Waterfall.

There are a good many salt water
cataracts in existence. They may be
found in Norway. southern Chile and
British Columbia, where narrow fiords
or arms of the sea, are INSTRUCTED by
barriers of rock The rising tide flows
over the filters through such reefs into
the great natural reservoirs beyond
but the water is held back at the ebb
until it breaks over the obstruction in
an irresistible torrent. Most curious
of all is the waterfall at Canoe pas
sage, where the island of Vancouver
approaches the British Columbia main
land. Here the floodtide from the gulf
Of Georgia to the southwark is held
back at a narrow cleft between two
islands until it pours over in boiling
cascade eighteen feet high with per
haps double the volume of the Rhine
At the turn of the tide. however, the
waters from the north rush back into
the gulf. producing a cascade of equal
height and volume. The waterfall ac-
tually flows both ways.-Baltimore Sun.

The Eyes of the Musk OK.

The skull of the bull musk OK is re-
markable for the development of the
eye orbits. which project sufficiently
beyond the plane of the frontal bones
to compensate for the interruption the
horns would otherwise make in the
range of vision. The musk OK, how
ever. does not seem to rely greatly on
keenness of sight, far less on acuteness
of hearing, for the ears are of small
dimensions and are completely covered
by the heavy growth of fur about them.
The organs of scent are evidently more
highly developed, and they exact of the
hunter his greatest cunning.
