RED CROSS SAILING
Miss Boardman Off to
Washington to Get Copy
of Neutrality Papers.

Miss Mabel Boardman took the mid
night train for Washington last night,
to obtain from the State Department
certain papers without which the Red
Cross relief ship, due 70 sail for war
racked Europe tomorrow at . o'clock
p, m, could not enter foreign waters,
She will return to-day. She decided on
the trip late yesterday afternoon upon
hnding that the papers, which she had
expected before then, had not arrived.
"They are papers assuring US that
the neutrality OF the ship will be re-
spected in the French and English
ports at which she is to touch" Miss
Eoardman said. 1.-THE ambassadors
from those countries are overwhelmed
with work, and / suppose that is the
reason for delay. ! am sure our State
Department has mailed them now; they
sre probably on their way, and will
roach here tomorrow, Still, ! think
it best to 20 to Washington and get a
duplicate copy, for it would be pity to
put off the sailing, when everything
else il ready"

Most of the nurses and surgeons re-
NAMED on board last night. To-day
the ship will move up to the dock at

houses, where the medical supplies are
stored, and the work Of loading Will
be completed. Many of the supplies
we're put on cars yesterday, ready to
run down the rails to the ships side, so
it will not take long to get the cargo
aboard.
