CIRCUS WASHING is
DONE IN ARDMORE

Mr. Stahl, manager Of the Globe
Laundry Company has landed the con
tract to do the Barnum q Bailey show
washing and laundry work for his
company. This is an item OF large
importance to a show the size Of Bar

people with them. With a circus the
size of Barnum & Bailey, instead Of
the individual sending out or having
their own laundry done, this work is
all ccntered in one department, the
head of which makes arrangements
with large laundries to handle the
work. Sending it out once a week,
together with sleeping car, dining
room, tent and wardrobe linen. This
contract was awarded the Globe Laun-
dry Company over the laundries in
Oklahoma City, where the show played

HIGHER NEUTRALITY
is ENJOYS THEME
Sir Cecil Spring-Rice Hopes
u. S. viii Continue Advanced
Position Ii Has Taken.

Washington, Aug. 24-Sir Cecil
Spring-Rice, the British Ambassador,
who has just returned from London,
conferred at length to-day with Sec
rotary Bryan and Counsellor Lansing,
on the general subject of American
neutrality.
As the United States and Great
Britain have been foremost in de,
veloping abstract principles Of inter-,
national law governing obligations OF
neutrals, the British Ambassador was
particularly DESTROYS that the United
States continue the advanced position
/, has taken on neutrality as a whole.
Regarding the principles Of inter-
national law concerning cOntraDand,
blockade. the rights of neutral ship
ping and the obligations upon neutrals
10 maintain strict impartiality in their
treatment Of the war and commercial
ships Of belligerentS. II is the purpose
Of the British government and, II Is
understood. Of the other belligerents,
TO request such neutral powers as the
United States TO deal with each ques-
ton involving the application Of
neutrality as a distinct legal PROPOSE
tiou.
This would eliminate the diplomatic
treatment of such questions and would
result in a standard and uniform meth
cd Of dealing with these delicate and
difficult questions which would not be
subject TO challenge by any fair minded
belligerent.
Great Britain and France already
have signifed their purpose 10 abide
by the Declarations of London, IS al
fecting their rights and that of neutral
nations during the present war, not
wthstanding the fact that their formal
assent TO these declarations has not
yet been reported. The United States
government has ratified the declara-
tions in treaty form, but has withheld
their PRONUNCIATION because of the
failure Of the great European powers
70 consummate the international agree
ment.
II is the British view that these dec
larations would not prevent the trans
fer of merchant ships under t-lligerent
flags to the American mercantile ma
rine, under the provision of the new
registry law, providing the transfers
are bona tide, and there is no intention
10 use the vessels for the benefit OF the
beligerent state, nor TO return them
to foreign ownership at the conclusion
of hostilitieS.

A. M. HUNTINGTON
TELLS OF ARREST
American Held as Spy al Nurem-
berg Harbors No Bitterness
Against Germans.

London, Aug. GA NJ. Huntington,
president of the American Geographic
cal Society and his wife, who are stay
ing at Claridge's. are none the worse
for the experience of being arrested as
Russian spies. Mr.. Huntington took his
adventure with supreme good nature
and made il clear that he harbored no
bitterness toward the German authori-
ties. He regarded il as case OF people
losing their heads in time of stress. lie
said:
"ln view Of the immense disaster
which has befallen Europe, the small
privations Of single individuals cannot
be considered seriously. What actually
happened was this: We left Carlsbad
August | at p. m. War news was al
ready exciting and we thought it best
to get away. We motored TO Nurem-
berg, intending 70 80 to Munich and
Switzerland We had no passports and
were stopped several times on the
road. but were allowed 20 pass.
I'VE reached Nuremberg az $3.50 p. m.
the same day and were arrested on en-
tering the city gates. Ny wife and /
and our French chauffeur and English
maid were all taken 20 the police sta
ton. We were compelled to undress,
were thoroughly searched, and our
papers taken away from US, but re
turned later We were kept at the po-
lice station till about q. M, when We
were allowed to go TO hotel and re-
main there, subject 20 police suryeil-
lance.
The next day ! wired TO Ambassador
Gerard and asked his advice. No an
swer reached me for several days, but
Mr.. Gerard acted most promptly. FOR
some days later the hotel proprietor
made inquiries and learned Of the sur-
veillance, and We were freed from sus-
picion. As matter OF fact, they never
made a spy charge. Our arrest was
merely on suspicion. ] cannot imagine
why they took me for a Russian spy.
Ambassador Gerard advised me 10
remain IN Nuremberg till after mobili-
cation had been accomplished, which
we did. Through the activities Of a
committee OF Americans iU the hotel q
special train WAS obtained and we
came TO Amsterdam. Al. credit should
be given 10 Ambassador Gerard and TO
the committee OF Americans formed for
facilitating our departure; also to the
hotel proprietor, Rudolph Sotz, who did
everything in his power to be of assist
ance.
My own feeling is and was at the
time that the authorities acted hastily
Boa the frst great excitement, but later
everything possible was done to render
our stay stfe. Enthusiasm for war
seemed very great. coupled with abso-
lutte certainty OF immediate success"
Mr.. and Mrs. Huntington will remain
here for the present,
