DR. KARL MUCK IN CUSTODY AS ALIEN ENEMY Night. Boston, March 25—Dr. Karl Muck, leader of the Boston 'Symphony Or- chestra, was taken into custody as an alien at his residence in the Back Bay district of this city late tonight. He was Jodged at a police station for the night, and it was announced that, pending orders from Washington, he would be taken to the East Cambridge jail tomorrow. No statement as to the immediate cause of the detention of the famous orchestra director was made by the federal officials tonight. Dr. Muck and the symphony orchestra have been under criticism since this country en_ tered the war, at first because of foil- ure to play “The Star Spangled Ban- ner” at concerts. Later the manage- ment announced that the national anthem would be a feature of every concert and this plan was carried out. Criticisms of Dr. Muck and otker or- chestra members also of pro-German sympathies continued, however, not- withstanding statements from the management asserting that the direc- tor ‘wds of Swiss birth. Representatives of Ty S. Distsict Attorney Thomas J.

It was announced that he would probably be ‘taken before the United States commissioner: for an examination to- morrow.. He wag not permitted to obtain bail. An agent of the district attorney’s office. who was asked whether any special evidence of pro_German acti- vity had been found, replied that he was not at liberty to say, adding that Dr. Muck had been under sur- veillance for months. % Dr. Muck was loaned to the Boston Symphony Orchestra by Emperor W liam in 1912 and again in 1§16. Un- der his leadership the orchestra achi- eved worldwide fame, but in several cities recently engasements have been ¢ancelled because of opposition to his appearance as leader.
