Yarrowdale Men,
Hungry, Ragged,
In Switzerland
Americans, Worn Almost
to Skeletons, Tell of Ger
man Cruelties

Zurich, March 12.-Worn almost TO
skeletons from lack Of food and harsh
treatment, and clad in ragged, make
shift garments, ffty-nine of the sailors
taken to Germany on the steamer
Yarrowdale, December 81, arrived in
Zurich to-day. The party included all
the Americans detained as prisoners
in the camp at Brandenburg. except
one, who was held by the Germans at
the last moment. One Brazilian and
one Spaniard also accompanied the
Americans.
Since they reached the Swiss frontier
at Rorschach yesterday they have been
overwhelmed with attentions and en-
tered Zurich laden with cigars, ciga-
1ettes and food showered on them along
the way.
The party was met here by United
States Consul General Keene, who
greeted them briefly and asked them
not to forget they were Americans and
not to bring discredit on America by
yielding to an understandable tempta-
tion to "kick over the traces"
The Yarrowdale men told of the
severe treatment 10 which they had
been subjected in the German prison
camps at Neustrelitz, Dulmen and
Brandenburg, where they had been
successfully interned after having been
brought into Swinemuende on the var
rowdale and where they. as Americans
they said, were apparently singled out
from all others.
During their stay in Germany, they
reported. they had subsisted on one
allowance Of soup daily, and had made
their fifty-two-hour journey 70 tne
border on one such "meal." There was
hardly one of them who at one time
or another, they declared, had not felt
the fist of a German camp guard, ana
the squad of FIVE soldiers which
brought them 70 the border had eXer-
cised the privilege Of abusing them
and curbing them up to the last pos
sible moment.
The men tell of the terrible suffer
ings they underwent during a PERIOD
of severe cold weather in Germany, due
partly 20 lack Of fuel, but more to
the absence Of the shoes and clothing
which they had lost.
The sailors said that they were CON
vinced that the raider which sank their
vessel was the Ritz of Bremen. a
new vessel of about 5000 tons. capable
Of eighteen knots. equipped with one
real and one false funnel, two masts'
four torpedo tubes, seven rapid firing
guns and a wheel house hidden by the
sides of the ship, which were so con
structed that portions could be auto
natically dropped and raised. She was
equipped with steel cells below, and
although looking like an old tramp
was really an armored cruiser.
The sailors said that the Yarrowdale le
was carefully mined, 50 that she could
be DESTROYED at a moments notice.

Prom a star Correspondent of The rrbunel
Albany, March 10. The Senate passed
the suffrage amendment tonight. II

Brown, President pro tenn, seemed to
have voiced the sentiments Of more
than one Of those who voted "aye" with
him in declaring that he was firmly op-
posed to the amendments adoption
Senator Lawson, one Of the seven who
voted against the bill, asserted that
many who voted in its favor did so TO
give it another swat"
The seven who voted against the
amendment were two Democrats. Down

No Apartment WillDo
For Billy Sunday
Evangelist Demands an Entire
House for His Party

Billy Sunday refuses to live IN a
Harlem apartment house, and thereby
hangs the tale of the tribulations OF
his entertainment committee. Every
day Chairman Alexander NJ. Hadden
and George Arnold search the neigh
borhood of the Tabernacle, at Broad
vav and 16sth Street, for house to
accommodate the evangelist and his
party. and thor daily search IS un-
successful.
Mr.. Sunday has shown no objections
20 living above 125th Street. This IS
necessary, AS he must be within a com
Portable distance of the Tabernacle.
When it comes TO living in an apart
ment house, however, the evangelist
has strong objections. The chief difii-
Guilty is coming to terms with elevator
boys and telephone operators over the
handling of his manv visitors.
Fifteen rooms and four baths are
required for the accommodation of the
Sunday party. Besides Mr.. and Mrs.
Sunday, there are several men and
women workers and a housekeeper'
making fifteen in all.
The hospitality committee is looking
for house near Riverside Drive, but
anywhere will do, they said yesterday,
90 long as it is house and not an
apartment.
Mr.. Sunday will arrive in New York
on April 7. and the campaign will open
on the afternoon OF Easter Sunday,
April 8.
Yesterday afternoon, at the assembly
room at 25 Madison Avenue, there was
an experience meeting of workers in
the prayer meeting campaign. Since
February 13 there have been 2,729
meetings, and 81 ,sO9 persons have at
tended.
Last night the campaign was started
in New Rochelle with meeting in the
salem Baptist Church, presided over by
i Addison Young. justice Of the Su-
preme Court. More than i,5OO persons
attended.

Senate Passes Suffrage Act;
Opponents Cite Birth Control
Elon r. Brown Before Casting Ballot for Bill Declares
Added Obligations for Women Will Further
Reduce Number Of Children

passing manhood and 4 SURPRISING
womanhood are as old as civilization
"The ballot" continued the majority
leader. "is the modern substitute for
the bludgeon and the bayonet. am
not unmindful of the noble women
whose patriotism and sacrifice have
been equal TO the trials OF their native
lands, and ! acknowledge woman's su-
perior capacity in education, religion
and social life and duties intimately

moved from politics and public life
He asserted emphatically that women
industrially employed are not asking
for suffrage.
another serious feature of the pro-
posal is its effect on the birth rate,
he said. American families have few
children, often none. This is directly
traceable TO the present obligations OF
women. Add to these obligations the
suffrage and Office holding, and 1t will
be further reduced"
Senator Downing said he would be
false to himself and his duty to the
people OF lnt SLaLc nut ~ l'oPtNN th@ii
will as voiced in the election IN which
they defeated suffrage when it was
submitted before. Senator Sage as
sumed the role of prophet to say:

doing anything but sidestepping in re-
submitting this question. predict now,
and ! am sorry for some of my friends
who will be disappointed, that suffrage
will be defeated far more decisively
this time than when. in 1915, it was
defeated by $4,000 votes"
The suffragist leaders were highly
elated by the Senate vote. but some
what chagrined by Senator Browns
speech.
"Our prospects of victory are very
brilliant" said Mrs. Norman de X.
