CAPTURED BY SUBMARINE.
, LONDON, March 26.
jA correspondent of the Niew York American was aboard the Batavier when submarine U66. which was completed since the war, commanded the Batavier to stop. A grinning German, with :< revolver swinging at his belt, informed the captain that his vessel was a war prize. He signalled to the submarine, \vhich quickly neaded south. The Batavier followed the guide, steering a dizzy course- through a thick mine-field. At Zeebrugge two Belgian girls aboard, refused to be downhearted, and shouted "Vive La Belgique!" "Vive d'Amerikc !" The German courteously saluted them.
