SWISS WELCOMES
YARROWDALE CREW
AMERICANS SAY THEY WERE
TREATED BADLY BY GERMANS
HAD SOUP ONCE DAILY.
ONE IN PARTY Is HELD
Yankees Convinced That the Raider
Which Sank Their Vessel Was
Ritz of Brennan" Which They
Describe as New Boat.

Zurich.-Laden with cigars, cigar
cites and food showered upon them
by the hOSpitable Swiss, 80 OF the now
historic YarrOwdale prisoners arrived
in Zurich. They arrived at the Ger
man frontier at Lindau, after con-
tinuOus trip Of 50 hours from the pris.
on camp at Brandenburg.
The sailors, although emaciated
from their Imprisonment and serious
lack of food since their arrival in Ger
dition and confident that with a nor
NAL amount of food they will soon be
themselves again.
The party was met here by United
States Consul-General Keene. who
greeted them briefly and asked them
not to forget that they were Ameri-
cans and not TO bring discredit on
America by yielding to an understand
able temptation to kick over the
traces"
The sailors said that they were
convinced that the raider which sank
their vessel was the Ritz OF Bremen"
They describe her as brand new YES
sci of about 5000 tons, capable of IS
knots, equipped with one funnel, two
masts, one false funnel, four torpedo
tubes, seven rapid firing guns and a
wheelhouse which was hidden by side
of the ship.
The tunnels had a devise by which
the stripes could be changed at will.
and the ships doors were so con-
structed as to cut off all light when
they were open.
During their stay in Germany, they
reported, they had subsisted or one
allowance of soup daily and had made
their long journey to the border on
one such meal" There was hardly
one of them who, they declared, had
not felt the fist of a German camp
guard, and the squad of five soldiers
which brought them to the border had
exercised the privilege of abusing
them up to the last possible moment.
The men tell of the terrible suffer.
ings they underwent during a period
of severe cold weather in Germany,
due partly to lack of fuel, but more to
the absence of the shoes and cloth
ing which they had lost. Since their
entrance into Switzerland at RO-
schach, they say, they have been roy
ally treated.
The party includes all the Ameri-
cans detained, except one seaman
named Rulleat, of a French-Canadian
family. claiming to have been born in
who was held in Brand
enburg. They were accompanied by
one Brazilian and one Spaniard.
