SPANISH SHIP
Montevedio Held Up
By Germans
Vessel Is Thoroughly Searched and
Captain Is Ordered to Return To
Cadiz-Germans In Explaining Say
Ship Carried Ccntraband of War

An Atlantic Port, April 23.-De-
of the Spanish Line steamship
Montevedio by a German submarine
on March 10. and the turning back
of the vessel to the port of Cadiz by
orders of the submarine commander,
were brought here today by passen-
gers on the Montevedio, which re-
sumed her journey from CadiZ on
April 6. The Montevedio was twen
ty-four hours out from port, the pas
sengers said, when at $50 p. NJ, a
shell fired from & distance estimated
at three to five miles fell about so
yards from the vessel. The Monte
vedio stopped and in a short time a
submarine came into view. A boat
was launched from the U-Boat, and
two officers. four sailors and a wire
less man came aboard. The first of
ficer and the purser of the Spanish
ship were told TO return to the sub
marine and take with them the ships
papers.
The German officer ordered all the
passengers and crew on deck, point
ed to a bag which had been brought
with him and said it contained bombs
which would sink the ship were any
resistance offered. He then made
careful examination of the passports
and papers of all the passengers
numbering more than 200, with the
exception of those from Spain or
Switzerland.
After a six hour delay the two Of
ficers from the Montevedio were re-
turned to their ships and the Ger
mans departed first giving the cap
tan of the merchantmen instructions
to return to Cadiz and warning him
he would be sunk if he used the wire
less. Explaining this order the Ger
mans asserted the ship carried
contraband of war Among the
Montevedio'S passengers were a
number Of Americans and Canadians.

"At Ostend the operation was more
simple. but the difficulties were consid-
erably increased by mist. rain and 10"
visibility and the consequent absence
of aerial cooperation. The results thus
far are known to be two block SHIPS
were run ashore and blown up at Os-
tend. 1t is too early to say definitely
whether they accomplished their OBJ

in the darkness they were slightly on

block ships attained their objective. be-
ing sunk or blown up at the entrance
of the canal, The third grounded while
passing in.
"A certain amount of damage, the ex-
tent at present unknown, was done by
gunfire and torpedo attack on an enemy
destroyer and other craft lying at the
mole Coastal motorboats reports haV-
ing torpedoed an enemy destroyer when

"Storming parties from the Nindictive
and the ferryboats attacked under an
extremely heavy fire and fought with
the greatest gallantry, maintaining their
positions alongside the mole for an hour
and causing. it is believed. much dam
age to the enemy and inficting consid-
cradle losses. The detectives for the
storming and demolition parties on the
mole were the enemy forces holding il

destroyer and submarine depots and the

garrison on the mole. thereby allowing
the block ships to enter the harbor.
| The casualties to the personnel, as
we had expected in a hazardous adven-
ture of this kind. were heavy in pro-
portion TO the number of men engaged.
Up to today the British losses reported
are one destroyer sunk by gunfre and
two coastal motorboats and two launch
es missing.
| We have sufficient information to
show that the entrance to the Brugges
canal probably was effectively blocked.
that material damage was done and
that the greatest credit is due to all
ranks for their gallantry.'
