An incident of the crew of the British steamship, which was taken on board, was the capture of a German ship by a German crew in August, 1916, while on a voyage from New York for Archangel with 6,000 bales of cotton. She was held up by a British cruiser, which placed a prize crew on board. Later, a German submarine took her and placed her in charge of the prize crew which took her to Oixhuven. The Germans did not know there was a British prize crew on board, they said, until the Englishmen were discovered in hiding.

Because the Pass of Balmhaven was transferred from British to American registry after the beginning of the war, a German prize court ruled that the ship and her equipment should be condemned.  Fiscaled, but that the owners should receive the proceeds of the sale of the cotton.
