pressing facts in connection with the
voyage of his vessel to Venezuela last
July and of not making all necessary
entries in his log book, Capt. Zipplitt of

be under the direction. to some extent,
OF a supercargo named Delgado.
The second day out these $50 voy-
ayers all appeared in military uniforms
and equipped head to foot with helmets,
swords, revolvers and spurs. The COM
pany looked like the persons In comic
opera Or participants IN military
masquerade.
Capt. Zipplitt was much alarmed at
the demonstration at first, thinking
that the masqueraders intended to take
possession of the ship and break out the
'red" flag. The captain could give no
clear answers to questions about this
coterie. not seeming to know where they
came from or what became of them,
further than that they all dispensed
with their uniforms when arriving near
the shores of Europe.
The government is anxious to have
all the curious details of the case. and
particularly II there were concealed
shipments of arms on board and what
disposition was made of them.

SCHMELING ON WAY
FOR SHARKEY BOUT
By WALTER TRUMBULL.

NEW YORK, April 25.-Joe Jacobs,
wearing a German haircut, secured on
his recent European trip, said today
that he was more than delighted with
the training quarters at Endicott,
N. Y, which he has selected for Max
Schmeling.
Endicott is nine miles from Bing-
hamton, where Jack Sharkey was born
and spent his early years under the
name of John Cuccoskey, so Max should
hear more or less of the history OF
his coming opponent. Jacobs says that
Endicott Is just the prettiest place he
ever saw. Coming from such widely
travelled man as Joe, that is high
praise.
Schmeling sailed for New York yes
terday. On his arrival he will be photo
graphed and interviewed, then visit
Madison Square Garden and afterward
journey to his training camp. He will
have from May until June IL to get
into condition.
