EITEL CAPTAIN ALARMED
NEWPORT NEWS, March 18.—The commander of
the German converted cruiser Prince Eitel Frederich is
in grave fear that his ship will be dynamited and he will
probably soon leave this harbor for safety. He has re
ceived numerous threatening letter's which were probably
sent by citizens of the nations which are allied against
Germany* The sinking of allied ships by the Eitel has
caused a most bitter feling against her and it has been
deemed advisable to place a strong guard around her.
The captain announced today that as a result of this feel
ing he will leave the harbor soon. He has no doubt that
he will be permitted to leave when his repairs are made
but the task of getting away safely will be a hard one.
TO PAY FOR DACIA CARGO
PARIS. March 18—The government will probably
purchase the cargo of cotton seized on the American ship
Dacia when she was seized by a French warship. No de
cision has been reached as to the final disposition of the
ship. The Dacia was a German vessel until the war broke
out when she went under American register. Her seizure
is due to the wish of France to prevent former German
ships from saving themselves by changing their flags ■

To the
Property Owners
of‘ Seward:
There is a steady and increasing
' demand for property in Seward, and
for improved property in particular.
Customers are making inquiries of us
daily ,and the supply of cabins avail
able for rent is at present extremely
limited. Any kind of a cabin or build
ing in Seward is now rentable. Eevery
steamer is bringing new arrivals to
Seward and it is necessary for them
all to have a place to live when they
arrive here.
We want to ask every property i
holder in Seward to assist us in look
ing after the wants of the new comers
and to that end, ask that they furnish
us with a list of their property, that
they wish to rent and we will do all
that we can to lease or rent it for you.
It does not make any difference
whether it is a residence or business
property, we have numerous demands
for bith, and will be able to place
either for you in a short time.
It is up to the citizens of Seward to j
look after the comfort of the new
comers and as an act of hospitality
alone it is up to you to list your prop
erty if you care to rent it.
We now have a few choice bargains
in real estate, and if you are in the
market for anything in that line, we
would be pleased to go over the list
with you, and possibly we may find
just what you want .
Strangers are cordially invited to
call at our office and make their
wants known.
