Cargo of Nitrate on German
Ship Interned at New York
Increases $875,000 in Value
By Associated Press
New Tork, July 7.—The German
sailing ship Indra began to discharge
here to-day a cargo of nitrate from
Chile valued at $1,000,000. When she
arrived here bringing the cargo in
September, 1914. it was worth only
$125,000. but the demyid for the
chemical for the manufacture of ex
plosives has greatly increased in price
since then. The result is that while
lying in this port for nearly two y ears
the value of the cargo has increased
by $875,000.
The lndra was bound from a
Chilean port to Dunkirk, France, when
the European war began. The cap- I
tain headed for New Tork on learning
that war was declared. Consignees
of the cargo began litigation to com
pel him to carry it to Duniurk, but he
declined to take his ship to sea where
sh might be captured by British or
French warships.

15,000: a tax of 3 per cent, on the
next $105,000. and 4 per cent, on all
