Commander Makes Statement Con cerning Ship--Goes to Dry Dock. Newport News, Va., April 14.--"I myself will not intent." This was the emphatic declaration of Lieut. Capt. Thierfelder, comman der of Hie Herman converted cruiser Kronprinz Wilhelm, when informed hy newspaper men late to-day that it was generally reported the cruiser ultimately would intern at this port. It was rumored that Commander Thierlchens, of the Prinz Eitel Fried rich, had taken a .similar stand, and that orders to intern his vessel had come from lils government. Com mander Thierfelder made no refer ence to the probable action of the Herman government with regard to the disposition to be made of the Kronprinz Wilhelm. Authorization to take the Wil helm into dry dock was given to Commander Thierfelder to-day in two letters from Collector of Cus toms Hamilton in reply to the cap tain's communication of April 13, in which was asked time to repair and make the Kronprinz Wilhelm scaw ort hy. rho condition of thc s lp and hoi boiler, is said to be su h that .': /tl) require titree weeks to oo^t pTet< . <. tempo, ai j commander has asked.

Thierfelder, "We have never heard from the Karlsruhe." said the German cap tain. "A surgeon doctor on my ship was this morning quoted as hav ing said we had heard from the Karlsruhe. He told this merely as .a story; the newspapers like stories. I myself would know if we had heard from the Karlsruhe. We have not heard anything." Praise for America. London, April la.-Slr Gilbert Parker at a meeting of the Pilgrims to-day paid a warm tribute to the United States for thc attitude it has maintained during Hie war. He said; "Never has a neutral nation such as the United States faced snell con ditions with a temperateness, cour tesy and moderation for which this country cannot be too grateful. "The American government has followed the only course possible to a nation desirous of proving its de servedly high reputation in thc Held of diplomacy. It has been in true sympathy with the high-mindedness and sensible idealism of Hie Ameri can people in regard to the great events of the world's history. It ls not surprising, therefore, that all the combatants in this great war desire at least America's good opinion." "Zep" Advises London Attack.

Discussing financial md social aspects of the conflict in in interview with the Associated Press, M. Bark said: "Notwithstanding the depressing md paralyzing effect of the war, the Russian peasant class is more pros perons than at any previous time in [he history of the country. "By virtue of the allowance made liy the government to the families of .Obliers, which exceeds the earning power of the soldiers, the total lu i-ome of these families is greater than in times of peace. Thus thc people are beginning to regard the war as a peculiar sort of God-send, which is putting money into their pockets." "What about vodka?" was asked of the minister. Prosperity Noticeable. "It is prohibition of the sale of vodka which ls primarily resjionsiblc for the ameliorated condition of the peasant," he responded. "The sieve through which all the available earn ings formerly disappeared bas now been closed. "It is not necessary to Invent the ories to explain why the Russian peo ple should be more prosperous, for the actual fact is that this prosper ity is everywhere noticeable. Before the war the average yearly deposits amounted to from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000, while In the month of January alono about $:',0,000,000 was deposited." "What about the crops?" "The farmers have 'been fortunate in being compelled to bold their sup ply of grain on account of tho ditfl CUlties of transportation, for grain ls now at the highest price of the year." Discussing Hie Paris conference of the allies' finance ministers to con sider flnancial problems arising from tho war, M.*Bark said: "One result was the formulation [)f an agreement with our allies to pool all the expenses of the war. Russia Is to draw upon Great Britain [?nd France for money expended In the war, while our allies are to call upon Russia for grain which they need. Rig Credit Arranged.

Hark said "That ia only a temporary affair, designed partly to make up for the loss in revenue from the vodka I rallie. "Russia looks for a tremendous in crease In her trade with the United States and her allies to replace the German trade existing before tho war. "There is now a particular oppor tunity for the United Steles, for she of all the countries to which we look for trade is not crippled by the war." Vf. Hark has asked what means were being employed to replace the revenues formerly derived from vod ka. "The amount of this revenue ex ceeded $450,000,000," he replied. "This is being replaced in a diversity of ways, Including a special war tax on railroad transportation, matches, sugar and most ordinary commodi ties."
