In order that the United States may
maintain . neutral position during the
r-sssfs; European war, President vii
son has issued the following procIa
nation:
Whereas. a state of wal unhappiIy
exists between Austria Hungary and
Servia and between Germany and
Russia and between Germany and
France; and whereas the United
States is on terms Of friendship and
amity with the eoBtending Powers
and with the persons ~inhabiting their
several domains.
Now, therefore, 1, Woodrow Will
son, President Of the United States Of
America, in order 70 preserve the
neutrality Of the United States and
Of its citizens and Of persons within
it, territory and Jurisdiction, and TO
enforce its laws and treaties and In
order that all persons, being warned
Of the general tenor Of the Laws and
treaties Of the United States in this
behalf and Of the law Of nations, may
thus be prevented from any violation
Of the same, do hereby declare and
proclaim that by certain provisions Of
the act approved on the fourth day of
March A. ID. 1909, commonly known
a. the Penal Code of the United
States the following acts are forbid
den to be done, under severe penal
ties, within the territory and jurisdie-
tion Of the United States, to-wit:
1.-THE prohibited acts then enumer-
ated by the proclamation include:
"~Accepting and exercising a com
mission to serve any Of the belliger-
ents; enlisting or entering the ser
vice Of any of the belligerents or
hiring other persons to take such ac-
ton; fitting out ships or increasing
the force Of any ship Of war of the
belligerents; aiding any military ex-
petition from the territory Of the
United States against the territories
Of either Of the beIligerents.o
While every country engaged in the
conflict has its sympathizers, az well
m many native~b born subjects in the
United States, IL will be well for all
patriotic citizens to abstain from
pointed arguments on the situation,
~ these could only result in stirring
up strife and causing trouble.
Let the official policy Of the govern.
ment, IN well as the private conduct
Of citizens, be one Of strict neutrality.

The Caribbean was on its best behavior

wharves we dropped anchor and delayed
while the American doctor, spruce youth
In khaki, examined the eyes of the deck

stepped onto the pier. where the painted
letters "P. II. r." recalled the Pennsyl-

Railroad. and strolled through a street

yesterday suspected of collecting mon

of this city and appropriating it for
personal use has been made to the
detention home authorities and is en-
tircly satisfactory, according to re
port received last night. The two
women in question were working with
the best OF intentions and in behalf
Of what they knew to be good cause.
They were mistaken In a way, but they
were not impOsters.
The two women i'm question were
anxious to do something for the BEN
eft OF the detention home. in which
they were very much Interested They
had conferred with someone else
whom they thought had the right to
give them the authority to do the
soliciting and were told casually to
90 TO work and that their labor would
be appreciated and the money they
made accepted with thanks from the
authorities
The ladies inquired no further. but
went to work diligently and with some
success They did not work very
long, however. until their intentions
were doubted and they Immediately
discontinued their work and turned
over what they had collected To- the
