RETURN THE GOLD TO
BANKS THAT SHIPPED IT

Washington, Aug. 5.-Secretary
McAdoo instructed the customs col
lector at Portland, Me-, to waive reg
ulations and allow both passengers
and freight to be landed at Bar Har-
Dor from the steamer Kronprinzessin
Cecilie.
This order was taken , here TO
mean that the 10 million dollars in
American gold carried in the Cecilie
will be returned to the bankers who
shipped it.
According to the agreement be-
tween the New York bankers and
the treasury department, every eff
fort is to be made to keep gold in
the United States and it is possible
that the bankers who made this par
ticular shipment will be able to find
some way of settling their European
claims which will keep much of their
metal at home.
Secretary McAdoo directed that
the merchandise of the Cecilie be
regarded as coastwise merchandise
and be landed without payment of
duty. Since the vessel is foreign own
ed, and sailed from one American
port to another, she technically vio-
lated the navigation laws.
In view of the present situation,
however, it was decided that no
other course was left open to the
than to permit the dis
charge Of her passengers and cargo. |
