allied shipping was warned by British
naval authorities tonight to be on the
lookout for a strange vessel believed
to be raider, which was interccpte,f
on December off the northwesteru
coast of Scotland and allowed to pro-
cced uLder the impression that she
was the Dutch steamer Gamma. Later
II was learned that the Gamma was a
Etrkwall on that date and did not
leave until December 3.
HALIFAX, Dec. 9.--The identity of
the supposed raider has not been de-
teimined. Admiralty officials appar-
entity suspect that IL she be a hostile
craft she may carry mines for drop
ping cff this port, the center Of British
naval activity OF this continent. and
the point Of departure for Canadian
troop ships. The vessel would reach
here from the position where she was
last reported by tomorrow or Sunday.
The warning said:

The duke Of Norfolk, chairman of the
executive committee OF the national
committee for relief i'm Belgium,
which collects funds in the British
empire for the committee for relief in
Bclgit m. today gave the Associated
Press the following statement 10 the
effect that the deportation Of Bel
sians will have on the American relief
commission: ...
THE recent order Issued by the
military governor Of Brussels and ad-
dressed to the bu"gomasters Of the
communCs under hts control, throws
further light on the German methods
i'm Belgium. i, required the delivery
without delay Of lists of unemployed
under threats Of rigorous measures
and in default of which the German
authorities will themselves select Bel
gisns to hc transported to Germany.
The lists which are demanded are. as
is apparent from other evidence. those
drt wn up for the relief commission
and the national committee. This Is
directly contrary TO the conditions laid
down by the allies and accepted by
the German authorities at the outset
OF regulations In regard to relief
fcaeures.
