LONDON. Feb. 24.-German COM
merce raiders who yesterday ran the
captured British steamer Westburn
into port Of Santa Cruz. Canary Islands,
dashed out to sea early today, scut-
tied the vesse' and escaped in boats.
according to dispatches from Santa
Cruz
This was done. the dispatches said.
because the Spanish authorities hint
ed that the Westburn. believed TO have
been taken by the famous commerce
raider Moewe, probably would be re-
turned to her British owners II the
Germans decided to intern here.
Fearing capture by British war
ships patrOlling off the Canaries. II
they attempted to escape, the Ger
mans put to sea and sank the British
ship Just inside the three-mile limit
They returned to Santa Cruz. where
they probably will be interned for
the remainder of the war. No treaty
such as that existing between Prussia
and the United States, by which the
Germans claimed the right to holC
the British liner Appam. taken tC
Norfolk by a German prize crew, is IN
effect between Spain and Germany
according to authorities here. Spain
| therefore had no choice, but to turI
the Westburn back to her British
owners il she was interned
The Germans landed all the Britisl
passengers before sinking he ship,

GERMAN DRIVEON
VERDUN IS PART
OF PARIS dash
by Tho United Press.

by The United Press.
LONDON, Feb. "a. The great German
offensive, directed by the Crown Prince
against the outer defcnscs of Nerdun,
marks the beginning of "A new drive ON
Paris, according to Amsterdam dis
patches today. quoting adVices from
Berlin.
BY the blasting fire of thousands Of
guns, the Germans plan TO wreck the
defcnscs of Ncrdun and begin u great
march ON the French capital, 1872 miles
away. Amsterdam reported.
Berlin believes the fall of Nerdun will
signal the beginning of the end of the
war. Half million men are now locked
in the great struggle in the woods north
and northeast of the French fortress.
The 6ercest artillery and infantry fight
ing is proceeding ON both banks of the
Meusc.
The Germans have battered in the
head OF the strong French salient, nine
miles north OF Verdun. according to
Perlin dispatches today. The Berlin
war Office claims the capture Of more
than six miles OF French trenches 20 a
depth of two miles, at some places, the
greatest gain made by either side on
the western front since the French
drive in the Champagne last Septem-
her.
II the Berlin report is true. the Ger
mans are now approaching the outer
forts of Verdun and by another equally
effective drive, may bring their A.
oentimeters to bear upon the Verdun
defenses.

HOPEWELL. BOOM town. HAS
LARGEST !. 0. 0. F. LODGE

WilmingtOnians now working at
Hopewell, the booming powder town in
Virginia, tell something of the great
improvements being made there in
letters received from them by friends
this week. Fifteen clerks are now
employed in the postoffce, which was
established several months ago. This
is probably a record for the growth Of
a postoftice.
Ten days ago a Presbyterian Church
was organized and last Sunday a
Methodist Church was organized with
a membership of 106.
On February Is an Odd Fellows
Lodge was organized with more than
zoo members. This is the largest
charter lodge in the world.
The trolley line has been extended
from Petersburg to Hopewell, and is
now running.
