Lieutenant Meyer, of the steamer Markommania, which accompanied the Eirden (in tho Malay Peninsula, capital of the British Protectorate of Solangor), and is now interned at Kuala Lumpur, states that the cruiser left Kiao-cliau disguised as a British; vessel and flying the white ensign. The crew lined the deck and gave three Engiish cheers when passing the Japanese warships, and the latter dipped their ensigns. The Emden's success in. the Bay of Bengal, he says, was due to her luck in tapping wireless messages.
