PASSENGERS OF APPAM BEGIN TO j LEAVE VESSEL Captured British Steamer Moved Up James River to Newport News TALES OF SEA RAIDER English Prisoners Contend Ship Was Converted Merchant man; Germans Say Not By Associated Press Newport News, Va., Feb. 3.—With her German prize commander on the ! bridge, the British liner Appam moved j up from Old Point early to-day. 1 anchored off this port to discharge! j the 245 persons on board Riven liberty : to land in the United States. The j ship's legal status still is undeter mined. I.ieutenant Berg, the Ger man officer, moves his craft only on i j orders through Collector Hamilton. "We are treating her as an English ship which has put into an American port flying the German naval ensign and under charge of a man who says he is an officer of the German navy," is Mr. Hamilton's explanation of the present attitude of the United States. Some of those who were passengers on the Appam when she was cap- i tured by the German raider variously i described as the Ponga or Moewe pre- ( pared to land in Newport News, but most of them will be transferred to the crews of other captured British vessels to Norfolk, where, later they will take a vessel for New York. F.nglisli Will Go Home Edward Merewether and other British colonial officers with large quantities of baggage have arranged to place their property in customs I bond here and proceed direct to New York to take the first available ship ; for home. Customs Collector Hamilton arrived from Norfolk early in the day to as sist in the arrangements for disem barking those who are at liberty to j land. He expressed the opinion that ! two or three days would elapse before j all are ashore. Meanwhile the dispo- j sition of the other passengers likely ' will have been decided. Germans and British differ In their versions of the identity of the raider. Prince Von Ifotzfeldt, counsellor of lho German embassy at Washington, insists that she is the German cruiser Moewe while all of the British skip pers aboard the Appam who have been interviewed to this time declare she is a converted merchantman of about 5,000 tons named Ponga, mounting six masked guns of near six-inch caliber and having two tor pedo tubes. The Englishmen believe she is a new boat fitted out recently as a commerce destroyer, and that she slipped out of the Kiel canal early in January. I Daring Deeds of Raiders Widely Applauded in Berlin By .IssociateJ Press Berlin. Feb. 3, via London. News! of the arrival of the Appam at Nor- j folk and of the daring raids of a Ger- j man cruiser in the main lane of sea ! traffic between South Africa and Eu-. rope has aroused a new outburst of j enthusiasm for the navy. The cruiser' Moewe —in English, the Seagull—was! enrolled on the honor list with the Eniden, Prinz Eitel Friedorich and Karlsruhe. Her feats are character- ■ ized as most daring, illustrative of the fact that the spirit which animated the men on the Emden is still alive and that further pages of German his tory are being written. I There is no little mystery regarding the identity of the Moewe. Admiralty officials evidently were not surprised at the news, but for ohvious reasons' flecline to give any information about the cruiser or whence she set out for! , her raids. A vessel named Moewe is given in ' the German navy list as a surveying' •ship. She formerly was engaged in j survey work at the East African sta tion. The raider may have been this| ; craft, although it seems improbable l that it was this little steamer of 650 ; tons, with a speed of only nine knots, i It maw have been that some larger! steamer, assuming the name Moewe! jwhen converted into an auxiliary I cruiser, slipped through the British Ilines. A precedent of this nature ex lists in the case of the German mer-' chantman which was converted ihto I the auxiliary cruiser Meteor which sank the British patrol boat Ramsey and other ships in the North Sea last, | summer and consequently was de stroyed. The German surveying ship Meowe : was sunk by gunfire on August 9, 1914. 1 New Way to Wave the Hair Becomes Popular j That most women are quick to aonre- I a ,r yth ' ns , tha L wl »enhance t?.elr attracti\cness, is shown bv the ereat y increased demand for liquid silmer |ine, since its remarkable hair uurllnit properties tecame known.

I Dr. C. A. R. Campbell, who has! made a special study of bats, is re- j sponsible for San Antonio's bat roost, j The Institution came into existence' last Spring. It was not a success in | its first year owing to the fact that it was established late in the Spring, and i its population was not numerous j enough. This Spring there is a large j army of bats on hand and it is expect- ! Ed to get an early start. Dr. Campbell says that one bat in! the course of a single day will eat one ] thousand mosquitoes. He expects hordes of mosquitoes to perish daily,' and that by the end of the summer the pestiferous insects will be almost. if not entirely, missing from this locality. The flight of the bats will begin about February 15 and from then un til April 30 they will fly about alf night long, trailing and devouring mosquitoes. Dr. Campbell says that the more malaria, typhoid and other germs a mosquito carries, the better the bat relishes it. After April 30 the.bats grow less hungry and more sleepy. By the end of July their flight totals only about two hours. Soon thereafter the sea son for baby bats arrives. A neighboring city having written to Dr. Campbell asking him how to get rid of mosquitoes he replied "Breed bats." Then he got another letter inquiring "But when you've got rid of the mosquitoes how do you get rid of the bats?"
