I Washington, Feb. 12.—Secretary Lan

SEEK STATUS OF
CREWS ON GERMAN
SHIPS INTERNED
Foreign Secretary Ziminer
niann Makes Request Through
Swiss Government
Berlin, Feb. 11. By wireless to
the Associated Press via SayviUe, Feb.
12. Foreign Secretary Zimmerman
to-day informed the Associated Press
that he had requested the Swiss gov
ernment to make inquiry in Washing
ton regarding the status of the crews
of interned German ships in American
ports.
Pending an answer the 72 Ameri
cans taken by the German raider and
brought in by the Yarrowdale whose
release had been agreed to, are being
held in Germany, the foreign secretary
stated.
During the past week recurring
rumors have reached Berlin byway
of London in which it was announced
that the United States government had
sequestered the German ships and in
terned their crews. No definite otlicial
denial having been received, the Ger
man govmment was prompted to ask
the government of Switzerland to ob
tain specific information.
"We could not consent to the re
lease of the Yarrowdale prisoners,
which was taken to be agrefcd to a
week ago," said the foreign secretary.
"These men had been taken off
armed merchantmen and their status
had been established. They will be
liberated just as soon as we learn the
fate of the German crews in American
ports."
The release of the Yarrowdale pris
oners was agreed to with Ambassador
Gerard on the eve of the break in
relations, but the possibility of the
German crews being interned in the
United States prompted the admiralty
to rescind the orders liberating the
Americans held with the rest of the
Yarrowdale prisoners.
Modernize Draft of Treaty
It is pointed out here that this
episode is a further illustration of the
menace growing out of the lack of
facilities and opportunities of free
inter-communication by both coun
tries.
Herr Zimmermann reaffirmed his
previous statement that the Americans
now in Germany will be permitted to
move about unmolested and be per
fectly free to leave the country when
ever they desire, even if the brak
threatens to reach the ultimate stage.
This Intention is based on the impres
sion prevailing here that the United
States is not contemplating any steps
with respect to German civilians that
might compel Germany to reconsider
the position she has now definitely
taken.
These and similar considerations
calculated to work out to mutual ad
vantage are said to be incorporated
in a modernized draft of the treaty of
1799 which is now awaiting the ap
proval of both governments. The
complete text of the revised version
has not yet been made public.
Clothes Save Man When
Hit by Big Locomotive
Collinsville, 111., Feb. 12.- —A farmer
named Thomas Gillaspie, who live#
near here, was hit by a locomotive a
few days ago and only slightly in
convenienced.
It was found that at the time he
was wearing five waistcoats, two pairs
of trousers and three suits of under
clothes. He is said to represent the
most striking case of preparedness
that has thus far come to light here.
He was so well prepared that he could
not move out of the way of the loco
motive quickly enough to avoid a col
lision.
