German Sailed on Missing Ship


TACOMA, Aug. 29.-The British
steamer Erlesburgh which sailed
from this port June 80 with cargo
of flour from Havre, is believed by
local shipping men to have been lost.
Ma report of the vessel passing thru
the Panama canal has ever been re-
ceived. In this connection it is re-
called by waterfront men that one of
the sailors signed on the Erlesburgh
was reported, after the vessel left, to
have been a German from one of the
interned ships IN South American
waters and an attempt was made to
wireless warning to the Erlesburgh.
British vice consul Agassiz admitted
today of having been notified of the
presence of a German on the Erles-
burgh and he had wired his infor-
nation to the embassy at Washing
ton.

Tnat the allies have been holding
back the common enemy from our
gates while we have been waking ur
to the necessity of preparing to de-
fend ourselves, and that the United
States has the advantage of mob
ilizing its full military strength un-
hlndered and without fear of being
attacked, was the declaration made
by Robert ID. Dripps. of Philadel-
phia, secretary of the Public Chari-
ties Association of Pennsylvania IN
an address at luncheon of the
Chamber of Commerce at noon to-
day in the Harrisburg Club.
Mr.. Dripps, who spoke on the sub
lect, War and Philanthropy" said
that the great. outstanding feature
OF the world war to-day is the ad-
vantage this nation has of profiting
by the lessons and experiences of
our allies, an advantage of incalcul-
able benefit not only to our armies
but to the whole country.
Mr.. Dripps said that fighting at the
front and philanthropy at home
were joined in this world conflict for
the successful and permanent solu-
ton of the problem of universal free
dom. He appealed to his hearers to
support the Red Cross and Boy Scout
movement and to give of their time
and means to all forms of civilian
relief.
Mr.. Dripps will address the Social
Workers Club at the Harrisburg
Public Library tonight at s o'clock,
on The Relations Between Public
and Private Charities"
