Won Bernstorf Obligingly
Poses While Cameras Snap

New York, Feb. 1l.-Under heavy
guard of United States secret service
men, $50 deputies of the custom house
neutrality squad and HOboken police,
Count Won Bernstorff, departing Ger.
man ambassador and his staff, arrived
in, Hoboken early today from Wash
ington.
The party was Immediately escorted
to the pier of the liner Frederick VIII
and went aboard the ship. At O. clock
this afternoon the liner will head down
the bay and the last formal step in the
break of diplomatic relations between
this country and Germany viii be com
plete.
The German envoy and the German
consuls from various parts of the coun.
try, together with other Teutonic dip
lomatic representatives, viii be en- route
back to Berlin.
. Won Bernstorff was accompanied by
175 members of the German diplomatic
corps in the United States. Occupying
the Pullman coach Manhattan were the
count, Nine. Won Bernstorff, and Prince
and Princess Won Hatzfeldt. Their train
pulled into the station at Newark at 7
clock.
Switched from the Pennsylvania
tracks to the Jersey Central, the train
of three cars and a baggage car, was
taken to Weehawken. There the train
was switched to freight track and tax
en- down the shore of the Hudson river
to Hoboken, where it stopped at 1880, at
TIL ,rko o,.1 HNIanv, ~
blocks from the pier.
Few in Hoboken knew the departing
ambassador and his suite had arrired.
Bernstorff Poses for Camera.
Swarming up to the train reporters
and photographers waited while Prince
Hatzfeldt emerged from the car and
was closely followed by Count Won
Bernstorff. The cameras began to
click.
"Take off your hat, " a photographer
yelled, unceremoniously at the departing
envoy.
Bernstorff removed the soft fedora.
But it still WASH Il satisfactory.
"Put it on" yelled another And
the count did.
Just as all the photographers had
Finished a moving picture operator
dashed up breathlessly.
Count" he said, III didn t gel
you. Would you take off your hat
againf',
Bernstorff smiled and obligingly re
moved the hat again. He posed in spite
of objections from his wife, while tht
movie film made its historical record.
'You u take cold,' Nine. Bernstorff
objected and solicitously she turned up
the collar of his coat
Would Not Be Interviewed.
Reporters clamored for an interview
but the ambassador, still smiling, waved
them away.
~ have nothing to say" he said.
Prince Hatzfedt was the first mem.
Der of the party to start for the liner.
He entered one of the 13 waiting
limousines and was whisked away to the
Scandinavia-American pier. Count and
Countess Won Bernstorff accompanied
by Princess Hatzfeldt came next. They
were followed quickly by other members
of the party.

CYCLONE OF oRAToRY
SWEEPS UPPER HOUSE

Since the year of the big wind in
Kansas there has been nothing TO com
pare with the cyclone that broke loose
yesterday afternoon in the senate short
ly after it began its session. 1t resem-
bled the cyclone in other respects than
its size for like that besom Of destruc
tion it came without warning. A couple
of bills had passed, and when S. B. No.
4S7 providing for juvenile insurance
came up there was few guests that
seemed to give hint of the coming
storm. 1t broke in full fury when H.
B. No. 107 providing semi-monthly pay
days for employees of private concerns
came up for third reading.
Senator Hurley started under high
and with his sparkling plug doing heroic
duty his exhaust sounded like a part
ridge in drumming time, only louder He
wanted the law applied to railroads and
to other big concerns, and he let it be
known just how badly he wanted it.
This is the impression left anyway,
but his rapid fire delivery precluded
grasping one of his ideas before dozen
more had crowded it off the road. There
was considerable argument covering the
matter from all viewpoints, but after
Hurley they sounded common place and
far away. Evidently his attack got the
senators going, or their fgoat, or some
thing, for the bill was indefinitely post
poned.
There was another lively little tilt
when the bill providing for rotating
the names on the ballots at primary
elections, house bill No. 21S, followed
on the heels of the pay day bill Senat
or Strayer explaining his vote said in
his political campaigns he had always
played fair and refrained from placing
his photograph on his cards so as not to
take undue advantage or mis- opponen,s,
and so, out of the same feeling of fair

There was no disorder of any kind in
Hoboken. The transfer of the party
from train to steamship was done
quickly.
Precautions Are Taken.
Arriving at the pier, the party passed
through the gate or a stoekade that had
been built around the pier 150 feet out
side the landing. No one was allowed
TO pass this barrier except members OF
the diplomatic corps and persons
vouehed for by Bernstorff.
Precautions ON land were no greater
than those in the Hudson river. Col
leetor of the Port Malone spent the
night on board the Frederick VIII. A
police boat kept up constant patrol
Of the nearby waters circling about the
ship. A dozen policemen were on the
boat.
Chief Flynn, of the United States Sc
cret service and a number OF his aides,
were with the Bernstorff party. They
accompanied the party aboard ship and
were to remain there until sailing
time.
More precautions were to be taken as
the ship passed down the river and out
into the bay. The police boat patrol
was to escort the liner. This craft, a
huge tug, mounted a rapid fire gun in
the bow. There was a possibility, also,
that a United States destroyer would
accompany the liner to the narrows.
viii Garry Large Cargo.
The Frederick VIII will carry one of
the largest eargoes and passenger lists
in her history, thus putting another
notch in the record Captain Thomson,
who has crossed the Atlantic 425 times
and is plastered with decorations.
The Frederick VIII will sail from
port with more guarantees of safety
than any ship in months. The allied
governments, having given Bernstorff
safe conduct and the route to be taken
being out of the mine zone,. the liner is
assured of clear passage.
In view of this, applications for pass
age fairly swarmed the steamship Of
fices. First and second class cabins
were thrown together - 215 persons
booked passage for these cabins. In
addition, about $50 made third class
reservations. The official German party
numbers l54, making a total of more
than 600 aboard.
Before noon three police boats were
patrolling the river, keeping clos,
guard over the Frederick VIII. No YES
sells We're permitted to approach thu
liner. 1t was planned to have the police
boats escort the liner down the bay.
Up to IL O'Clock the pier was prac
tically deserted except for officials ant
guards No crowd had gathered and the
embassy party remained aboard ship.
In response to requests for an inter
view, Count Won Bernstorff sent word
out from the ship that, as he has given
out his farewell statement in Washing.
ton last night, he could see no one.

viii Send Submarines
Into American Waters
BY Carl w. Alderman

Berne, via Paris, Feb. a.
: Germany is prepared to send
submarines into American wa
ters. especially to the region of
the Panama canal.
The possibility Of America en-
tering the war has been care
fully considered by German OF.
ficials--but nevertheless they
expect to have the entente at
: their mercy. within six months
regardless Of American develop
ments.
They are confident the sub
marines will paralyze the war
industries Of the allies.
Meanwhile the Germans are
; preparing TO launch gigantic of
fensives on land, in the air, and
with torpedo boat fleets in adj
dition to the sub-sea campaign.
Germany is stronger today in
a military sense than at any
time since the war began.
Because of the isolation of
America, Germany does not be-
lieve that American paPticipa
tion in the war would have any
|; real effect.

when it became known that American
ships had cleared for allied ports in
the face of Germany's frank announce

was gravely remarked that the ship
owners must take a frivolous view OF
the situation in even dispatehing their

enjoyed before the departure of Am.

We find the list Of preventable
diseases really growing, as new

science of medicine. The germ
that causes Infantile Paralysis is
