German Ship Loaded With Dynamite Must Unload or “Beat It.”

Washington, Sept. 21.—Coast guard officials have been ordered by Secretary McAdoo to see that the German steamship Magdeburg gets out f New York harbor or disposes of 300 tons of dynamite it has aboard. The vessel has been at New York ever since the European war began and the war and treasury departments have concluded its presence is a menace. As it can not leave without ruiining the gantlet of British cruisers off the coast, officials here think the dynamite will be sold.
