Stockholm, Oct. 31.
The City of Flint was again brought into port at Tromsoe, Norway, yester-Gay, according to a correspondent of the "Dagens Nyheter" who interviewed the German Consul at Tromsoe, Herr Henrick Jebens.
Herr Jebers confirmed reports that he had boarded the City of Flint at 1 p.m. yesterday. He said the German prize crew and the Americans still aboard the City of Flint left the port at 4 p.m. at the request of port authorities, Herr Jebens declined further comment.
Maritime quarters said the City of Flint sought fresh water. The vessel's recent visit to Murmansk, and the similarity of the present stop to its previous visit here when the German prize crew dropped the crew. of the British s. Stonegate whom they had picked up after the British vessel was sunk, evoked some confusion.
It was believed that some other motive had brought the ship again into Tromsoe. Possibly the prize crew was seeking to disembark the American crew, as they did the crew of the Stonegate, and therefore be able to manœuvre the City of Flint as they desired.—United Press.
