PREVENTING BEluGERENTS FROM
VIOLATING NEUTRALITY BIG TASK
Customs Authorities of the Port Of New York Never Before Had a
Situation to Deal With Like That Created by the European War
Efficient Bay Patrol Assisted by Swift Destroyers
Keep Constant Watch on Outgoing Vessels.

New York.-New York is a neutral
port.
1t is neutral despite the presence
here Of vessels OF ali nations.
These vessels are free to come and
go as long as they observe the neutral
ity laws OF the United States.
Dudley Field Malone. collector OF
the port, is charged With the respon-
sibllity for the enforcement Of these
laws.
Mr.. Malone has been without prece-
dent to guide him. No other collector
OF this port ever had IL deal with a
situation like that created by the war
in Europe.
From the outset he has been de-
termined, SO far as his district is con.
cernea, to prevent any act on the
part Of any OF the belligerenta which
would compromise the neutrality Of
this country as defined in President
Wilson's proclamation. says the New
York Herald.
The need for prompt and vigorous
action was emphasized by the krOn.

OF the custom house show that this

Yet the facility with which the
Kronpripz Wilhelm was transformed
from d peaceful merchant vessel to
a commerce destroyer as soo as it
was OH the high seas caused the gov.
eInment to turn its attention to the
activities which became manifest on
board other steamships that were in
the harbor.
Mr.. Malone Immediately organized
q neutrality bureau, consisting OF
about a hundred customs officials.
These men We're assigned to various
piers and stati0ns where vigilance
seemed necessary.
Each man was held t q strict &C
countabllity. but Mr. Malone set them
q splendid example. for night after

papers 1t was arranged to have come OF
the %speed1est tOrpedO-boat destrOyers
In the navy stationed in the NarrOws
Off Quarantine and in the sound OF
WhitestOne. Cables were laid and at
tached to Il buoy. from which direct
connection could be made with one
OF the destrOyers on guard at either
station. so that it would be possible
to telephone direct from the custom
house to the commanding officer at
any minute during the day or night.
Private telephones were also placed
at each pier around the harbOr, max
Ing 1t possible. for the men ON guard
to get into instant communication
with the collectors office.
No Chance to Get BY.
Under this arrangement az soon as
a vessel has cleared at the custom
house notice ie sen to the torpedo,
boat destroyer on guard. and no YES,
sci Ia allowed to leave the harbor un-
til the commander Of the destroyer
has received word from the custom
house that clearance has been granted.
The efficacy OF this supervision was
tested when the steamship Pathfinder,
ignoring the signals to stop. steamed
rapidly past Quarantine and was
down In the lower bay before the de-
stroyer got under Roadway. The de.
parting boat wal speedily overhauled.
but eve then the captain refused to
stop until a solid shot WAS fired across
his bows. He thereupon decided to
take nc chances on what might hap,
pen next and returned as ordered
to the Quarantine station. where he
was detained until q proper clearance
a produced. Several other boata
have been stopped In like manner
The vigilance of the neutrality
squad" as Mr.. Malone's army OF
husky watchers has come to be known
among the harbor folk, ia evidenced
by several incidents. Two II time

ter and the Winslow. which had a
speed OF from twenty four to twenty.

Lieut.. George NJ. Lowry answers the
call and returns with a message for

from the Office Of Mr.. Malone. The
d~estroyers have steam up and are
ready to make q dash II the occasion
should arise.

the larbor authorities as the loading

Of what might happen il one of the
boxes careleasly swung from the light
er alongside should slip from the
block and tackle and fall to the deck.
All barges carrying explosives are
required by the municipal ordinance
to fly two large red flags. one at the
bow and N at the stern, and at
night to display two red lanterns.
City In Danger From Explosives.
Most of them paid little heed to the
regulation. They were travelling up
and down the harbor. each with
enough picric acid or other high ex.
plostve to raze the city, with no red
flag flying Or other indication of the
dangerous cargo they were transport
ing. The attention of the neutrality
squad" was called by Mr.. Malone to
this c~arelessness.
The customs guards are also forced
to keep rigid watch to see that no
explosives are loaded on passenger
ships. It is likewise part Of their
duty. under the law. to prevent ship
pers from loading goods under a false
classification.
In enforcing neutrality Mr.. Malone
has not lost sight of the fact that
the motive Of patriotism which impels
all aliens in the United States to
want to be of utmost service to their
respective countries ia perfectly up'
de%rstandable. but it has been his con.
slant purpose to compel the repre-
sentattves OF all nations to realize
that they a only serve the cause
Of their governments by keeping
within the limits and prohibitions OF
Ii neutrality laws.

 After Eating Places Too
 Our investigation was absolutely impartial and careful. It extended over two months and included enough analyses to make our findings incon- powerfully reliable. We are going to continue our work. including investi- gation of the hotels and restaurants in Bisbee. We will obtain samples from these places and if milk below the standard is found we will arrest the proprietors They will be held re- sponsible as we have no way of es- tablishing who diluted the milk.
 Milk dealers supplying the Bisbee district can conduct their business at profit if they would. Their charge of 121a cents a quart compares with 10 cents a quart charged by Fl Paso and Phoenix dealers for the same grade of milk These local dealers could, if they would. obtain milk which would sell for Is cents a quart, a price obtained for most excellent grades in Los Angeles, Phoenix and other places. We are determined to protect the health of the Bisbee pub lie as it is effected by the milk SUD- ply and offending dealers will be wig orously prosecuted"

You are up a tree. worried. perplexed. don't know what to do. two different parties want the house. You are oh the verge of making the sacrifice, when you hear Of an individual by the name of Fay who resides in Lowell, Arizona. This Fay. so you are told, does some re- markable stunts in connection with just such worries, just such deals. You don't believe in such stuff but still something prompts you to call on Fay. Fay at once tells you about the deal, shows you at once the entire na- ture of the transaction. They describe every detail ,.,of your business, then offer you a suggestion as to what to do. You sit amazed and dumfounded at the remarkable revelations given in connection with your very life from day to day. You leave the Fay office Put into effect, the suggestion they gave you. You don't sell your home but still your business deal goes through all O. K. You then declare Fay to be the wonder of all wonders.

CHAMPIONSHIP OF WESTERN CRIDIRONS
 CLAIMED BY MANY
Missouri Has Best Claim in Missouri Valley, Kendall in Oklahoma-Rest Are Hope lessly Disputed.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 2.-Football in the southwest in the series of games which came to a close last Thursday evolved no undisputed champions in either the Missouri valley or south western conferences. Nebraska's proud record of conservative victories for half a dozen years was broken this year by Kansas and then by Notre Dame and Oklahoma's supremacy over south of the Missouri river was chal- lenged successfully by five teams.
 Kansas had hoped to challenge Ne braska's claim of the title because of the Jayhawkers' victory in Loncoln but following their crushing defeat at the hands of Missouri all vestige of Kan. sas' claim to superiority was put to rout.
 In the southwestern conference Tex as and Baylor each claim the Texas title, while the Oklahoma laurels went without question to Henry Kendall College of Tulsa. But it would be diff ficult to pick the southwestern cham pions. It remained for a non-confer- ence team, however, to come through the season without a defeat in a schedule of ten games. This team represented the Henry Kendall Col lege which scored 567 points while al lowing its opponents to make only 30.
 Missouri Valley teams won slightly more than half of their inter-confer- ence clashes. Missouri defeated Okla homa and Texas, Kansas won from Oklahoma but lost to Illinois.
 The Kansas Aggies also downed the luckless Oklahomans, Ames lost to Iowa in the state championship game, Drake lost to Northwestern, Nebraska defeated the Oregon Aggies and Iowa but lost to Notre Dame and Washing ton lost to Michigan. It was notable that more inter-conference games were played than usual. Texas renewed it's contest with Missouri after a lapse of years. Kansas played Illinois for the first time since 1892. Nebraska's Journey half way across the country 10 meet the Oregon Aggies matched the coast style of play with the valley varsiety for the first time. to the ad vantage of the latter Arizona came east to meet defeat at the hands of the Rice in Houston, Texas.
 Few accidents occurred during the season, the only one of a serious na- ture in a valley conference squad be-
