QUESTION GIRLS STORY
Her Statement That Father Forced
Her to Support Him is
Denied by Officer
Miller.

Omcer Frank j. Miller of Chicago,
arrived here this morning and took
back to Chicago with him this after
noon Joseph Sabitino, nineteen year
Iold Italian boy, who ran away from
Chicago to this place with Mary
Iannitello to get married. The two
were arrested here Monday at the
request Of John j. Halpin, chief of
detectives OF Chicago, after warrant
had been filed against the boy by the
lgirl's father, Joseph Iannitello, charg-
ling him with abduction. Miller also
took the girl back with him on the
l1:40 train this afternoon.
! According to Miller, the story told
by the girl here to the police about
her father, is not altogether true. The
| girls father, says Miller, is a hard
working Italian, about sixty years
old, and supports his own family. The
girl said that her father did not work,
but forced her to support him.
| The father OF the girl filed the
charge OF abduction against the boy
because he thought he was no good
The father has known the boy for
about four years and has Kept pretty
close tab on him. He was inclined
to believe that the boy took the girl
from Chicago for immoral purposes,
and it was this belief that lead him
to file the charge. The crime of
abduction Is punishable by imprison-
ment of from one to ten years.

Refused to Leave Him.
All day yesterday, and last night
the girl continued to refuse to leave
her sweetheart, and remained last
might at the jail in order that she
might be near him. The girl spent
over five dollars yesterday on tele-
graph and telephone messages to her
father. appealing to him to dismiss
| the charge against Joseph and allow
them to get married. Many OF the
most influential Italians in this city,
yesterday, came sstlie aid Of the
two young peosiseg + a tsdid all they
could to. persuad Ills father to

Whether snpt the girls father will
push the charge Of abduction against
the boy wflAnshe is returned to Chi
cago is notsanown. The boy, Joseph
Sabitino, was employed on the water
power here for about two years dur
ling Its construction. He worked for
about six months as bell boy at the
Congress hotel in Chicago, but has
not been working recently. 1t is be-
llieved that the money the girl had
when Joe was arrested belonged to
him The girls father lives at 643
South Clark street in Chicago, and
keeps large rooming house there.

NO AMERICAN MONEY
FOR warning POWERS

Washington. Aug 15.---Loans by
American bankers to European war
ring nations were discountenanced by
the administration today. In a formal
statement Secretary of State Bryan let
the world know that this country will
cosider as a violation Of the spirit of
neutrality any loans to belligerents.
Americans may loan as much as they
choose to neutral powers. This deci-
sion was made in the case of SwitZer-
land which had inquired If she might
borrow here While the statement did
not indicate any punishment for loans
to belligerents, it was assumed here to-
night that, following j. p. Morgan's
example, other big bankers would de-
eide against granting financial aid to
the warning powers. They can under
take to make such loans If they choose,
ii is believed in as much as the ad-
ministration statement pointed only to
violation of the spirit" of Amerra' 5

In giving out the formal statement
Secretary Bryan refused to say wheth-
er ]. p. Morgan & Co, or any other
New York bankers, asked for a ruling,
Statement of Department.
The full statement of the department
follows
Inquiry having been made to the
attitude of this government in case
American bankers are asked to make
loans to foreign governments during
the war in Europe, the following an
nouncement is made:
There is no reason why loans should
not be made to the governments of
neutral nations. but in the judgment
of this government loans by American
bankers to any foreign nation which is
at war is inconsistent with the true
spirit of neutrality"
Secretary Bryan declared the Swiss
government asked the United States
what its attitude would be toward a
loan by American bankers to that gov
eminent. He said the administration
saw no objection to II.

WHAT WAR MOVES MEAN

mans to learn of the allies formation
before the order for general advance
can be given.
The week has brought forth no
strategic change in southern Alsace.
Both sides are apparently reluctant
to engage in strenuous activity in the
quarter for the present. The French
victories there will have no permanent
effect on the campaign. The Germans
continue to hold all their fortified post
tons and they are still entire masters
of the Rhine.
The week has shown that the allies
are extremely confident. The ability
of the Ldege forts to withstand the
German attack is responsible for mi
tiating the spirit of optimism. The
week has seen constant references to
the inferiority of German artillery, the
dissatisfaction and hunger of German
prisoners and assurances that every
thing is progressing satisfactorily"
over confidence lost the Germans
the advantage at the start of the war.
The allies turn may come next.
