TAKE OVER VESSELS
United States Authorities Seize
German Ships.
DEPUTY MARSHALS IN CHARGE
Action Follows Almost Immediately
After Passage by Congress Of Res
oIution Declaring That a
State of War Exists.

New York, April 6.-SeiZure OF Ger
man merchant vessels that took refuge
in Atlantic ports at the beginning of
the war began almost Immediately af-
ter congress passed the resolution de-
claring a state of war between the
United States and Germany.
The collector of the port ar Boston
was the first to act. The federal Of
tcials at New London, Conu., .BaIti-
more, New York and Philadelphia, fol-
lowed quickly. In few hours United
States deputy marShalS were ia charge
OF German vessels at these ports, rang
ing in size from the majestic Vater-
land of 54,2S2 gross tons, to small sail
ing vessels.
The port officers acted on orders is
sued by the secretary of the treasury.
1t was understood that the move did
not involve cOntiscation and that the
vessels are held as a measure OF
safety. There was no announcement
as to whether the government should
take over the ships fer its use and pay
for them after the war.
German vessels now In American
ports number 81 with a gross tonnage
of about 100000.
Since the president delivered his war
message to congress these ships had
been under heavy guard stationed
by the collector Of the port
Their officers have said that, Tying
at their docks since the beginning OF
the war, these vessels have become SO
fOuled and their slips so ChOked with
mud that it would have been virtually
impossible for them to get away unless
they were extricated by dredges-
At various times there had been re-
ports that the machinery and boilers
had been wrecked by their German
crews, but of this there was no official
confirmation.
Chancellor MCGOvern, after board
ing the North German Lloyd steamer
Whilehad at New London, said that its
engines We're apparently in good condi-
ton.
The ships taken over, ports In which
they were seized, and their tonnage
and value, are as follows:

.II2 KILLED IN WAR
PLANT EXPLOSION
MOST OF VICTIMS WOMEN AND
LDREN-Bo0lES BADLY
CHARRED.
sc, 900 SHELLS IN STORAGE
Detectives Say Explosion Purely Ac'
cidentaI, But Officials Scout Idea
Fire Started in Mandatory For
Time Fuses.

Chester, Pa.-One hundred and
twelve persons, most of the women
and girls, are known TO have lost their
lives, and l2l were injured, by Sc
ries of terrific explosions in the shrap
pel building of the Eddystone Ammu-
milton Corporation at Eddystone, one
mile from Chester. Many OF the iu-
iured were fatally hurt and it is fear
ed the final death list will reach l50.
How any of the 800 or more en-
plOyes in the building, in which was
stored approximately 10000 shells,
escaped is a mystery. as there was
scarcely a fragment Of the structure
left intact. Fire added to the horror
and most of the bodies were so bad
ly charred that identification was IN
possible.
Rumors of plots and arrests were
numerous after the disaster, but all
lacked confirmation. Detectives re-
ported the explosion apparently was
purely accidental and advanced the
theory that shrapnel placed near a
radiator might have caused it, An
official of the company, however, said
there never was more than half a
ton of powder in the building and that
this never was in bulk.
The explosion occurred about 20
o'clock in what is known as the 10-F
building, a two-story structure, rs by
800 feet. In this building time fuses
were prepared, more than so per cent
of the workers being women and
girls. Probably so men and boys
were employed in the building at the
time of the blast and most of them
escaped.
The utmost confusion followed the
explosion. A heavy pail of smoke
darkened the entire town, which has
a population of about 5000, but this
was soon lightened by the flames from
the burning building.
Rescue squads formed and call for
assistance was sent to Philadelphia
Chester, Wilmington and other near
by towns.
The entire Chester fire department
responded and ambulances from Phil
adelphia and Chester were soon at
the scene.
A strong guard of Pennsylvania mi,
ltamen and cadets from the Penn
sylvania Military Academy was
thrown around the plant and every
one except those assisting in the res
cue work was forbidden to approach.
