Destruction of Wm. P. Frye Will

Government?Seizure and
Blowing Up by Prinz Eitel
Fried rich Unfriendly Act, it is
Considered.
Washington, March 10.?Arrival of
the German converted cruiser thin/
Eitel Fricdrich at Newport News,
with the anouncement that during her
four months' cruise as a commerce
raider she had sent to the bottom
one American owned vessel which
flow the (lug of the United States,
profoundly stirred oflicial Washington.
In the absence of a detailed story
of the sinking of the American ship,
the William 1*. Frye, off the coast
of South America, judgment was
withheld hut there was no attempt to
deny the seriousness of the incident,
and it was conceded tiiat on its face
it hore the appearance of an unfriendly
act on the part of a German
ship of war which must result in
diplomatic negotiations with the German
government.
Wheat Not Contraband
Such information as had come to
officials here tonight was in substance
that the Frye was blown up because
tho commander of the Eithel held
her cargo of wheat to he contraband
It was pointed out that wheat it not
contraband unless consigned to a belligerent
or sonic agent of such government#
The I' rye s manifest sinewed
her bound for Quecntown "for
orders." Officials explained that this
declaration in the manifest was not
unusual and added that circumstances
so far pointed to the fact that
the Frye was not subject to seizure
or destruction.
The master, officers and crew of the
Frye will appear tomorrow in Norfolk
before Customs Collector Hamilton,
and will be questioned at length
about circumstances of the ship's departure
from Seattle last November
and of her capture and destruction.
Facts gathered will be forwarded to
Washington and, if necessary, the
state department will conduct an inquity
of its own and will not undertake
negotiations with Germany until
its case is clear.
May Demand Apology
Just what demands might he mad"
upon Germany if the blowing up of
the Frye were considered an ur.
friendly act, were not disclosed tonight.
It was understood, however,
that the United States nrohablv
would seek the usual honorable
amends under the international law
as well as reparation for the owners.
The Prin/. Eithel undoubtedly will
be interned in Hampton Roads unless
her commander is willintf to take a
chance with the allies' ships with her
general condition far from seaworthy.
Collector Hamilton hes served the
customary notice that the Rithel must
.ail within 24 hours or intern, or pive
reasons for a Ion per stay which will
be satisfactory to Washington. If he?
commander desires to make repairs,
additional time can lie allowed but in
view of a preliminary report by c xncrts
that at least several months
would be required to tit her To'* active
ea . irvi.- \ it was generally believed
tlvit the only course open for her is
1o intern.

AN WARCRAFT
? Sc
TO THE W. M. U OF
THE COUNTY OF UNION
Some ask: What is the design of
an institute? It is one of the successful
means used for the development
of teachers, oflicers and work- tit
ers of all ages; education and en- Sc
thusing them for greater efTort and ('<
larger service. These first divisional th
institutes should appeal to the loyalty ha
and pride of each division. pa
Won't this be a great expense in tri
these stringent times? Wo had had tit
an eye to this in arranging program ! so
and by using only material in North- Cc
ern Division, of which there is an elt
abundance, there will be scarcely any se
expense. wi
When and where will this institute C'c
be held? In Gaflfney, Friday and Saturday,
April i> and 10. Make plans j0(
so as to attend, and learn train scned- ni(
ules so as to be on time. Gaflfney is
central in this division, and easy ?>r ni:
access. The railroad fare will b< m.
small from any point in Northern Di- jn.
vision and the money will be well ,jj,
spent.
Are we to have any invited guests ^
at the meeting? Invitations will be
sent to all State officers and super- (j(1
intendents in other divisions. They
will receive a hearty welcome in 'pi
GafTney. ' ,!a
Who are expected to attend the In- jj(
stitute? Everybody in Northern Division
who can possibly come. Es- j,
pecially association officers, prosi- '
dents of societies, leaders of bands . _
and some representatives fiom every
Y. W. A., G. A. and It. A. in the en
an
171 VIMiMI.
Who are the committee on propram?
Mrs. C. E. Watson, Mrs. G. to
G. Byars and Miss Addie Brown, with
all superintendents and others responsible
for department programs.
Will those attending institute be
entertained? GafTney has kindly invited
attendants to be her guests. jn
and we all know what that promises. w.
Will we have anv State officers to j j(
speak? Our president, Mrs. J. D. j j(
Ghapman. and Mrs. .1. T. Rice, superintendent
of Mission Studv. <jn.
IIow can T help the Institute? Let jn,
us all join in prayer that it may he
a blessinp to the division, and beyond,
to the whole State. L?t every
associate superintendent of Y. W. A. jjr
and G. A. pet into communication ac
with Mrs. A. C. Croe, GafTney; Miss jn
Essie Taylor. Travelers Rest, and ro,
Mrs. Emma Roner, Laurens, and try
to have the Y. W. A.'s and G. A.'s of
their association well represented, and
well trained. Let every association
officer be present and so advertise Gr
and recommend it that their eonsti- wi
tuency in all the country places may ch
be represented. Let unity of purpose M
and effort so prevail in every heart
that Northern Division may "be th
strong in the Lord and in the power
of his mipht." se
