ENTERED PORT YESTERDAY.
The Kron Prlns WUhelm. an
other of Germany's famous sea
raiders, entered a United States
port yesterday morning. The ship
evaded a cordon of English and
French battleships, hovering off
Virginia Capes, and'entered New
port News, where the Prim Eltel
Freidrich sought repairs.
The Kron Prinz WUhelm has
been decidedly active since the
war began, having sank fifteen
vessels, twelve of which were
English Ships. Sixty-six prisoners
were on board.
Newport News port authorities
will follow the same precedent es
tablished In the case of the Eltel

CHASED BY ENGLISH.
Newport News, April 12.—Ttie
Wilheim was chased by British
warships after midnight Satur
day, and barely escaped capture,
according to uie officers of the
British merchant vessels destroy
ed by the WUhelm in the South
Atlantic. They said the speed of
«Jhe Wilheim was greater than the
warship#, *nd,
managed to racefrom tbicn Into
Hfcmptofc Roads.
The WUhelm is being coaled and
provisioned today. Although Comman
der Thierfelder asked 300 tons of coal
and supplies for three days, the federal
authorities allowed him only 160 tons
and provisions for three days. Before
she began coaling and taking on sup
plies, the vessel had less than twenty
flve tons of coal and scant provisions
for the crew of 600 and sixty-one
prisoners from British merchant ships
destroyed by her in the South Atlantic.
The captain had been given twenty
four'hours to leave the port unless he
needed coal and time to make repairs.
The machinery. of the Kron Prins
Wilheim, which entered port yester
day after a 250 days' voyage since
leaving New York harbor, is in fairly
good condition. The men seemed in
good condition. Fifteen of the allies'
merchantmen have been destroyed by
the Wilheim.
Follow Same Precedent.
Washington, April 12.—Without
awaiting a formal application from
Captain Thierfelder of the Kron Prinz
Wilheim, the second German auxiliary
cruiser to slip Into Hampton Roades in
a month, for a board of naval officers
to survey his vessel to determine the
repairs necessary and the amount of
coal and provisions to which she is en
titled, Secretary Daniels Instructed
Admiral Fletcher to follow the preced
ent established In the case of the
Prinz Eltel Frledrich, Just interned at

of belligerents in aiming to em

"The forces of the two sec

Cloraale d'ltalia, "are not yet so
unequal that they are likely to

feeling remains, therefore, to con

IN ROME
Rome, April 12.—The presence in
-Rome of Gebftel Hanotaux, ex-minis
ter of foreign affairs of France and a
member of the French academy, Is
causing much comment here. He has
had audience with Pope Benedict and
Papal Secretary of State Casparrl and
subsequently M. Hanotaux visited by
a prominent prelate of the papel sec
retaryship of state.
A feeling exists in Rome that ne
gotiations, perhaps totally unofficial,
are proceeding with the object of
bringing about an understanding be
tween Fraqse and the Holy See, which
Is considered more necessary as Rus
sia's successes increase.
Through France the Vatican, it is
understood, hopes to bring influence
to bear on Russia in connection with
her treatment of Polish Catholics. An
other question which has attracted the
attention of the Holy See authorities
iai contained in a report published in
Rome to the effect that Russia, in the
event of victory, "would not be satis

claim possession of the Holy Land be

EXPECT VESSEL
TO BE FLOATED
Captain GarUck Sent Wireless Asking
for Salvage Steamer—One of Holds
Pierced by Rock—Extent of Dam
age Not Known.
Kobe, Japan, April 12.—The Amer
ican steamer Minnesota, plying be
tween Japanese ports and Seattle,
struck a rock at 9:80 o'clock last
night off Iwajlma, near the south-'
western entrance to the Inland sea.
In a wireless message, Captain Gar
Uck has asked for a salvage steamer.
He says all the passengers and crew
are safe.
The Minnesota, sailing from Naga
saki Sunday morning, was bound*'for
Kobe, Yokohama and Seattle. She
passed through the straits of Shlm
onoseki safely and was in Inland sea
when the accident occurred.
It is believed that the Minnesota
will be floated, but beyond the fact
that one of her holds was pierced by
the rock, the amount of damage is
not known.
The report reached here that the
Blue Funnel line steamer, Canfa, from
Seattle, rescued the passengers of the
Minnesota.
Krom details later by telegraph. It
appears that the Minnesota mistook
her course during a storm. Thick
weather prevented her from sighting
the lighthouse.
Passengers Are Rescued.
The wireless telegraph was em
ployed by the Minnesota in calling for
help. The steamer, which immedi
ately responded, is said to be the
Canfa. She took off the passengers,
the exact number of which has not
been ascertained. The passengers had
just finished dinner when the crash
came.
A salvage steamer, with a tender
and divers, was sent from Moji, and
will reach the scene of the wreck to
morrow morning.
The Japanese cruiser Yakumo also
heard the calls.for help,.and speeded
•to. the rescue.. She arrived on the
.scene, and' foiwd the entire crew at
the Minnesota working despera.telic.-at
the pumps.
477 Oh Board.'''
According to a newspaper dispatch
published' here, there were 136 first
class passengers, mostly Americans,
aboard the Minnesota, together with
twenty-two' second and" forty-four
third class passengers. The crew of
the steamer numbered 277 men. Twen

da, April 13.—Hie Russian armies, according to de
pendable Information reaching Ijemberg, made successful advances
along the wide front from Bartfeld to Ussok, the greatest gain being In
the direction of Gummeno.
At this point the Russians descended the southern slope of the Car
pathians, forcing the Austrians back with heavy losses to the line be
tween Mexolaborcz and Smolnlk. At the same time the Russians ad
vanced along the, line between Dnlda and Svednlk, where the Anari.n.,.
unable to make any serious defense, abandoned tlieir stores and trans
ports In retreating.
There was a most determined opposition on the whole front of bat
ueon the part of the Hungarians, whose fighting qualities are being
highly complimented by the Russian officers.
There are still no Indications that the Germans sent furtliFr rein
forcements to the Austrians In the Carpathians, notwithstanding tlie
ftoct that the German forces along the Niemen river, and near the Ewvt
Prussian frontier, appear to be weakening. For this reason the Russian
staff officers believe the German troops from the North are
moved to some other part of the front.
