The committees who canvassed
the territory adjacent to Kendrick
met few individuals who refused
to contribute to the Army Y. M. G.
A. They were we'll able to give
but stated no reason why they re-
fused. 1t was suggested at a meet
ing of those interested in the work,
that committee composed of bust
ness men and neighbors of the men
who refused to contribute, should
go in body at an early day and
ascertain why the donations were
not forthcoming. 1t was thought
hardly fair that one man should
cheerfully donate to the different
branches of army work while his
neighbor refused to give anything.
In all probability the cases in mind
will be investigated the first part
of next week.

Of great value in delivering manufac-

ACT UNDER M'ADoo's ORDERS
Vessels Now In American Ports Are
Declared to Have a/Tennage Of
About 6oo, ,00o-Fiower Of
Teuton Empires Marine.

New York, April 6.-Federal officials
seized German merchant vessels that
took refuge in Atlantic ports at the
beginning of the war. almost imme-
diately after congress passed the reso-
luton declaring a state of war be-
tween the United States and Germany.
The collector of the port at Boston
was the first to act.
Port officers acted on orders issued
by the secretary Of the treasury. 1t Is
understood that this move does not
involve confiscation and that the yes
sells are held for the present as a
measure Of safety.
German vessels now in American
ports number 81, with gross tonnage
of about 100000. This includes %
ships in refuge at the Philippine
islands, IL at Honolulu and' one at
Pagopago. a port of the Pacific islands.
The ships lying at their slips at the
Hamburg-American and North German
Lloyd docks at New York and Ho-
boken include some Of the flower Of
the German merchant marine. The
Vaterland. one of the largest vessels
in the world, is by far the most valu-
able. Next in size is the George Wash
ington, 25,57O tons. Others Of more
than $4,000 tons are the President
Grant, President Lincoln and Kaiser
Wilhelm II. Four Austrian steamships
also are tied up here.
The ships taken, with their value
and tonnage, is ohicially announced as

No response has been received by the

eight years old, who disappeared from

Ernest NJ. Buxbaum. husband of the
missing woman, and a grown son are
distressed over her continued absence.
The husband this morning conferred
with Inspector Grant. and the latter de-
tailed two members of his command to
participate in search. A description
of Mrs. BuXbaum. sent to the police of
other cities, reads:
Mrs. Margaret r. Buxbaum. white,
thirty-eight years, five feet four or five,
dark piercing eyes, wore one-piece

Mr.. Buxbaum learned that his wife
visited the residence of Mrs. Courtney.
colored washerwoman, residing near
New Jersey avenue and f street, about
four hours after she left home. and
wanted to borrow a suit case. She told
the washerwoman that her husband
and son were asleep and she did not
want to arouse them. She wanted to
make the loan, she said, because she
had friends coming here from another
city to visit her.
Mrs. Buxbaum's relatives, who reside
in Philadelphia, have made an unSuc-
cessful search of the Quaker city for
her. Messages from there this morn
ing gave the information that no trace
of her had been found.

officials in charge of the work.

cost of living" declared an official to-
day. when told of the criticism. Per
haps We think that way ourselves. But
we are making the investigation under
specific resolution of Congress, which
authorizes the work for this city alone,
and that is the work We are now en-
gagged in.
ANY one who thinks that the work

smiled the official. There is a resolu-

would seek to extend the work of the

Plea of the Critics.
THOSE crltlclSlpg the StatlStlcS gather-
ing here based their criticisms, which
were wholly of a constructive nature,
and in no sense narrow. it developed,
on the ground that the city of Wash
ington is a peculiar city, and the only
one of it's kind in the United States.
1t was believed by these critics that
the investigation should have been car
ried out, and with more real benefit, in
an industrial city.
Broadly speaking, there are three
large classes of communities in which
an investigation into the high cost of
living should be carried on" said one
of these critics These would COM
prise industrial cities, agricultural COM
munities, and all others, a sort of mis-
tional Capital would properly belong
in an investigation of this kind"

The work of gathering the statistics
