FOREIGNERS WITH TITLES
ARE ORDERED DEPORTED
Two Women and Two Men Accused
of Activities Objectionable
to Government.

NEW YORK, March 1s.-Two men
and two women of foreign birth, liv-
ing in fashionable quarters here and
said to have had code correspondence
with diplomats and high officials of for
eign governments. were today arrested
by agents of the Department of Justice
and turned over to the immigration
authorities for deportation.
The four were described as Baron Henri
de- Beville. Count Robert de CIairmont.
Nine, Despina Davidovitch Storch and
Mrs. Elizabeth Charlotte Nix. Although
each stopped at a different hotel or apart
ment. they were said to have been asso-
ciated in activities Objectionable to the
government. Mrs. Nix is said to have ad-
nitted receiving $4,000 from Count Won
Bernstorff, although she claims it was a
loan.
The government seized a, safe deposit
box rented by Nine. Storch, and it was
said that codes and much correspond
ence were found, which is expected to
throw more light upon their activities,
the exact nature of which the authori-
ties did not disclose. Nine. Storch is
also known as Nine Nezie, and is said
to be the leader of the group.

Recommendations by Nhe railroad

day to be delayed until next week.

The commissions Independent inves-
tigation of living costs was said today
to have borne out figures prepared by
other agencies. Union representatives
at the public hearings contended that
the increase in living costs called for
increases in wages ranging as high as
SO per cent, and they urged that the
low-paid men be given the greatest

Arrangements Completed
for Taking Over Dutch Ships
at New York Tomorrow

NEW YORK, March 1s-An arrange
ments for the seizure or taking over by
the United States of the Dutch ships now
in New York harbor, set for tomorrow,
were completed today by representa-
tives of the United States Navy and the
United States Shipping Board. The
actual hour of transfer of control of
the vessels has not been officially an
nounced, but it will be about noon a
twenty-four hour delay from the time
originally set.
The method of procedure, it is under
stood. will be similar to that followed in
the seizure of the German vessels after the
United States entered the war, with the
exception that the Dutch officers and crews
will not be treated as prisoners, but as
guests of the nation" as one official put
It At the hour determined the ships will
be visited By Navy and shipping board
officials and the deck officer in charge re-
spectfully informed that he has been re-

will be made of the ships equipment,

the Dutch lines. are members ofTthe

prevent them from accepting service

Virtually all the officers have asked
to be returned to their homes, should

When the vessels have been taken

PLANS FOR USING
DUTCH SHIPPING

Both United States and
Great Britain.

700 600 Tons Here to Be Added to

Seamen Friendly to Allies.

THE HAGUE: March 17.-After q
cabinet council lasting into the
night, the government cabled to
London a message which. according
10 reliable information. probably
will lead to n satisfactory conclusion
of the shipping difficulty.
An Amsterdam dispatch Saturday
said 1t had been learned on excel
lent authority that the Dutch gov
ernmenf had accepted the demands
of the entente allies relating to the
usA of Dutch ships i'm the danger
zone.
Plans for operation of the Dutch
shipping which will be acquired by the
United States and Great Britain, either
through voluntary agreement or by
requisition, are going forward steadily
today; while the governments await the
reply of Holland to the demand that
she accede to the terms of the contract
which Germany blocked or suffer selz-
ure of all her tonnage in American
and British waters.
Hollands reply, which has been dis
patched to London, is expected by Off
Gals to close the negotiations there to-
day. Seizure Of the ships in Amesican
ports will be delayed, however, until
the reply is received here, which may
not be until tomorrow.
As it is believed now Holland will
assent to the allied proposals, officials
here desire to delay action so that trans
fer by agreement may be substituted
for seizure, although in, either case they
would be entirely within their rights
under International law.
No Delay Beyond Thursday.
At any rate. the addition OF 1.ooo.ooe
tons of shipping to the resources engag-
ed in the fight for world freedom Will
not be delayed beyond Thursday.
The American flag will be raised over
the zoo, 600 tons in American waters as
soon as the transfer is made and the
vessels will be put into the fleet trans
port service The will be armed to
resist the attack of German submarines
in the war one and trained American
gun crews will man the guns.
Many of the Dutch sailors are ex-
pected to remain with the ships. Ameri-
can officers will be placed in charge
to comply with the shipping laws, but
the provision requiring that two-thirds
Of the crews shall be citizens of this
country will be waived as in previous
cases.
The friendliness of Dutch seamen to
the allied cause, resenting, as all sea
faring men do. the murderous warfare
of the submarine, probably will lead al
least half of them to continue their
work Their cooperation will be well
coined, particularly because of the high
standing which Dutch sailors have in
the world ports.
It was stated officially that there has
been no change in the terms of the
American ultimatum. which offered
Holland ample food supplies and suffi-
Giant tonnage to maintain the. COM
merce of her colonies.
