State of War Exists.

New York, April 6.-Seizure of Ger

In Atlantic ports at the beginning Of
the war began almost immediately af-

Caring a state of war between the
United States and Germany.
The collector of the port at Boston

land of 54,2S2 gross tons. to small sail

The port officers acted on orders is
sued by the secretary of the treasury.
1t was understood that the move did
not involve coniiscation and that the
vessels are held as measure OF
safety. There was no announcement
as to whether the government should
take over the ships for 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 a heavy guard stationed
by the collector of the port.
Their officers have said that, lying
ar 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

engines were apparently in good condi-
ton.

they were seized, and their tonnage
