Property in HobOken
CASH UNAVAILABLE

Up at the Docks.
NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-The fact
that the North German Lloyd Steam
snip company, owner of the Kronprin-
zessin Cecilic, which is the subject of
litigation in the federal admiralty
court in Boston, is about to engage in
some financing was disclosed by the
filing Of papers in the register 8 office
in jersey City. II was the first indi-
cation that has been had of the rails
ing of money in this country by the
German shipping companies since the
outbreak Of the European war.
There was placed on record Monday
a mortgage of the North German Lloyd
Dock company (thc holding company
in the United States of the North Ger
man Lloyd Steamship company where
by the corporation pledges its realty
holdings in lIobokcn to the Commercial
Trust company of Jersey City as trus-
tee TO secure an issue of bonds amount
ing TO 100000. The papers show
that the bonds will be payable in TWEEN
~ years, with interest at per cent
per annum. Interest is to be paid Feb

+ Officers Of the Commercial Trust
company in Jersey City said that they
did not know the details of the plan;
of the North German Lloyd, and thai
they were acting merely as fdueiarN
agents of thc-compauy.
Wall Street bankers who were asked
about the matter expressed the opinion
that in all likelihood no public offer
ing would bc made of the bonds anC
that the securities would probably b,
placed privately. They pointed on
that the issue was comparativcl'
small one and could he readil- ahsorbc,

OFFERS 500 REWARD.
FOR AUTO THIEVES
Fred w. Vogler, Head of Northwest
Auto CO., will Pay Sum for Arrest
and Conviction Of Any Person
Stealing ANY Car Purchased Of His
Company II Dealers.

Here is a chance for detectives.
amateur or professional, to make
some money. Fred w. Vogler, aead
of the Northwest Auto Co., of Port
land and who is attending the PEN
dleton Automobile Show, announced
yesterday that he would pay a re-
ward of 500 to anyone securing the
arrest and conviction of any person
stealing any car purchased from his
company or from any of its dealers.
The company handles the Marmon
and REQ, of which the Pendleton Au-
to Co. is local agents, and the Cole
and bort which the Allen-Knight
Co. handles locally.
THE stealing of cars and accessor.
les is something that has to be curb
ed for it is daily rising to greater pro-
portions declared Mr.. Vogler.
o course, it is realized that many
cars are taken by boys and young
men as a sort of a Joke but it seems
to me that it is a very poor one. A
mans property is involved. whether
it be 5000 or $4,000. In the early
days Of the northwest, a man who
played that sort of a joke with a horse
or cattle was tied to the wrong end
of a rope and pulled over the nearest
telegraph pole.
r"Our young men should be made
to realize hat the private property OF
car owners is not the plaything for
their whlms of the moment. They
should be dealt with in a
which will impress them with the
gravity of their conduct and when it
comes to the organized crook or cir
Gle. drastic measures should be ia
ken.
Il am serious aboutthis thing and
1 am going to do everything 1 can
and am going to use my influence
with friends to see that this thing is
In the early days horse thiev-
cry was the most serious thing we
had to contend with. We stopped it.
l propose to see If there is not some
way to have the theft of automobiles
There is no reason for the
commonwealth of oregon to permit
these continual depredatiOns."

SAY GERMANS USED
A IN AMAZON

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Ger-
man commerce raiders have been
using a small island in the ANA
zon river as a base of supplies
and operation, according to
statements made today by pas
sengers who arrived on the
steamship Sergipe of the Lloyd
Braziliero line.
The Sergipe sailed from Per-
nambuco Jan. II and Is the first
vessel to reach New York from
that port since the japanese
freiEhter Hudson Maru arrived
there with sos survivors from
some OF the vessels captured and
sunk by the raider.
Many of the Sergipe passen-
gers spoke to the survivors and
learned hat the commander OF
the raider had instructions To sink
no Japanese shipping. They also
stated that the japanese were
paid in German gold to carry the
survivors into port.
The island Is known as Mena-
loas and is situated about TWEEN
ty-five miles above Para. on ms
Of the a deep watered chan
nels that make possible the safe
navigation Of vessels larger than
the ordinary river steamers in
this part Of the river.
Menaloas is said to be fifteen
miles wide and abundantly sup
piled with fresh water springs.
II ostensibly has been used as a
German trading post since the
early part OF 1911 and its popu-
latlon Of 200 according TO the
