BRITISH ADMIRAL
PUTS BAN ON 4 SHIP.
WHICH LOADED HERE.
AMERICAN SCHOONER EDGAR
NJ. MURDOCH SAID TO HAVE
BEEN CONCERNED IN UNNEU-
TRIAL PRACTICES.

This interesting item appeared In
Saturdays issue Of the Mobile Reg
lister.
'"The latest blacklist of neutral
shipping prescribed to British char
terers by the trade division of the
admiralty, on the charge that they
either represent Teutonic capital, or
have indulged in unneutral activities,
contains the name Of the American
schooner Edgar NJ. Murdoch.
"The news Of the schocners con-
nection with alleged German COM
merce raiders was first printed by
The Register. The Murdoch coaled
eleven interned German steamers at
Santa Cruz, Teneriffe, Canary Is
lands.
"When the, schooner Murdoch
reached Mobile several weeks ago
after voyage to the Canary Islands,
The Register learned that the vessel
had been chartered by German agents.
Further investigation developed that
the coal was placed aboard German
vessels which were said to be secret
" armed and ready for a dash to the
sea. This news was the first infor-
nation the United States had that
the Canary Islands were about to be-
come the base of German commerce
raiders. Newspapers throughout the
country printed the news, which was
sent out of the Register Office over
the wires of the Associated Press"

Schooner Loaded Here.

The schooner Edgar M, Murdoch,
mentioned in the above, loaded here,
and Is one of four fine schooners
owned by Captain Magune and asso-
ciates, who is now here. Captain
Magune was quoted as saying upon
his return from the Canary Islands
that the cargo of coal which he had
delivered at Teneriffe, ne had reason
to believe, had been taken over by
German agents, and had been par
celed out among a number of German
steamships which had been interped
at Tenerjffe, and that these steamers.
adding q gun or two, were preparing
TO get into the commerce raidinp
business. It was believed that the
raider Moewe, which put a crew
aboard the British liner Appam. and
which reached an Atlantic coast mort.
had been able to get to sea and to
work partly by use of coal supplied
IN this manner, but not necessarily
from the cargo from the Murdoch.
The Murdoch came here from No
bile, and Captain Magune brought
the schooner here. AS he had sailed
the seas for many years, he engaged
Captain Comiskey, from New Eng
land, to come and make the voyage
to South America, and the new can
tain was in charge when the Muir
dock was towed over Pensacola bar,
starting out ON her long VOYAGE h
the River Platte. Captain Magune,
her owner, Is in the city for a long
stay. At Pensacola a cargo of lun-
Der was loaded, the entire consipn-
ment having been received at the q
F. & A. wharf.

Roxbury, VT year ago last December /
was taken with female trouble and doctored for
it but did not get any help until took Lydia z.

suffering about eight months this wonderful medi-
cine cured me."-Mrs. MILE E. FRENCH.
