OF NEUTRALITY
NOT FINALLY Settled
British Ambassador and the
State Department in
Conference

WASHINGTON. Sept. 17-Sir Cecil
spring-Rice, the British Ambassador,
and Robert Lansing, Counsellor OF
the State Department. are continu-
ing their discussions OF neutrality,
especially with reference to the char
acter Of British vessels which may
enter and clear American ports dur
ing the war.
Rules to govern maritime rela-
tions between the two countries have
not yet been definitely settled,
though no difficulty is anticipated. It
was pointed out after the conference
today that the character of a ships
cargo or her passenger list would
largely determine the question
whether the neutrality Of the United
States were being violated
1t was suggested that should a
British vessel put to sea from an
American port with a passenger list
in which were a large number Of
women and children or without con-
traband cargo It is to be taken for
granted that she as not bound on a
belligerent mission.
While no ship would be permitted
to clear an American port on a voy-
age specially undertaken to trans
port individual passengers to be em-
bodied in the armed forces Of a
belligerent this question is not likely
TO arise with Great Britain, as she
can ship all OF her reservists or
volunteers out of the United States
through Canadian ports.
II is understood that Great Britain
hopes to arrange for an occasional
sailing of British vessel from an
American port regardless Of the
character of her cargo.
Both Great Britain and Germany
have served notice that in determine
ing what constitutes contraband
they will be guided by the declara-
ton of London. At least one ves-
sci under the German flag left Phil
adelphia soon after the declaration Of
war with every available foot Of
space packed with coal, and succeeded
in crossing the Atlantic without in
terference from British vessels. Of
ficials say there was nothing to pre-
vent British ships taking the same
chance of evading German men-of-
war.

WARCORRESPONDENTS
WORRY Generals
Five Americans, Including
Cobb, Ordered Shot by
German Commander
TURNS SENTENCE
INTO A JOKE
BY WILLIAM G. SHEPHERD.

United Press Staff Correspondent.
ANTWERP, Sept. 1--(By Mail to
New York; The real war corre-
spondents who dress like war cor
respondents in plays or novels which
they themselves have written, are
giving the European generals little
trouble. A war correspondent must
keep his dignity and you can't do that
while you're quarreling with gen
erals. It's the reporters-the fell
lows fresh from the streets Of New
York or Chicago or San Francisco
who cause the generals to worry.
They have no dignity to keep-only
news to get. A courier from Brand
Whitlock, American minister to
Belgium, came through the German
lines from Brussels into Antwerp the
other day and described some of the
dOings of 20 American correspond
ents who We're in the city when the
belgians evacuated it and permitted
the Germans to enter peacefully.
They're practically prisoners" he
said, because the Germans won't let
them get out themselves or send out
any news. But they worry the Ger
mans terribly"
Then ne told this story:
On the day that they heard the
Germans We're approaching, FIVE
american reporters hired a taxicab
at a fabulous rental, and went out
10 meet the Germans They drew up
alongside the road and prepared to
watch the procession as if It were a
circus coming TO town. OF course.
the general commanding the troops
nollced them, ordered them arrested
and brought to him.
VINO are your he asked in broken
English. probably thinking they we're
his enemies the English.
We're fve- American reporters "
came the reply.
what's that? Correspondents? ?"
Yes answered o large, plump
writer who happened t. be Irwin S.
Cobb, well-knOwn o American maga-
zine readers.
Don't you know there are no cor
respondents with the German army 90
thundered the general.
beg pardon, General" said Cobb.
with his funniest smile, you've got
five with you now"
III order you all shot" snapped
the German commander who prabably
felt himself weakening at the sight
of the fat reporters jolly smile. Theu
he spent 20 minutes looking at their
American passports.
Il can stand being shot, General"
said Cobb, finally. Il can stand the
firing squad and the stone wall and
the disgrace to my family. but l can't
stand the ticking of that taxicab
meter over there"
The general laughed. every member
Of his staff who could understand Eng
lish laughed and the taxicab bearing
the five American reporters joined the
procession in Brussels.
They say the general has wished
half a dozen times since that he had
shot them all, but at last reports they
hav got him so that he permits them
to go on foot behind the cavalry when
the Uhlans make short sorties out from
the town. They are often seen, dusty,
but happy, walking or running, ac-
cording to the pace Of the horses fol-
lowing the German cavalry to some
scene of a possible battle.

In these days of high-powered guns

LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE war put
everybody into Khaki, with a few ex-
oeptions. On the battle line or in the
field the English soldier and the English
officer get out Of their richly colored
and historic uniforms and into khaki oil
neutral hue. The Germans are in
gray. Ihe Austrians have most Of their
soldiers in khaki and the Russians all
wear khaki-colored cloth The French
still cling TO their blue coats and bril-
liant red trousers, and the Belgians have
a uniform that is very similar to the
French.
The French and Belgian officers are
dangerously ornamented with gilt
trimmings during warfare and present
such brilliant targets that some Of the
Belgian regiments, during hard lighting
with the Germans, have lost nearly OF
