USS ''Antigone'' (ID-3007) was a transport for the United States Navy during World War I, and the first ship of that name for the U.S. Navy. She was originally SS ''Neckar'' for North German Lloyd from her 1900 launch until seized by the U.S. in 1917. After her war service she was SS ''Potomac'' for United States Lines. == SS ''Neckar'' == ''Neckar'' was launched on 8 December 1900 at Geestemünde, Germany, by J.C. Tecklenborg; and was owned and operated by North German Lloyd. ''Neckar'' was 500 feet long, had twin screw propulsion and quadruple expansion engines.〔Arnold Kludas, Die Geschichte der deutschen Passagierfahrt (vol. 2, 1986)〕 During 1900-1914, she was the third largest transporter of steerage passengers (nearly all immigrants) to the United States, most of whom disembarked in New York and Baltimore.〔Business-of-Migration.com()〕 In the North Atlantic at the outbreak of World War I in the summer of 1914, the passenger and freight liner sought sanctuary at the neutral port, Baltimore, Maryland—lest she fall prey to the warships of the Royal Navy—and was interned, ostensibly for the duration of the conflict.
