| BOY-ED SUGGESTS MUZZLE POR PRESS Dismissed antuchc Advises United States to Revise Laws Along German Lines. TRIES T0 JUSTIFY HIMSELF| NEW YORK, Dec. 28.Captain Karl Boy-Ed, the recalled German naval attache; Colonel Bdward M House, President Wilson's special emigsary, and Brand Whitlock, Amer- fcan minister at Brussels, boarded the steamship Rotterdam within a fow minutes of each other today to sail for Europe. Colonel House and Mr. Whitlock | were uncommunicative, but Captain; Boy-Ed gave out a written statement in which he denounced what he| charaeterized as “the reckless utter- ances of an irresponsible press” and | predictsd that the American govern- ment would “in self-dofense’ some day find it necessary to curb such ut- terances. Statement by Boy-Ed. Captain Karl Boy-Ed issued the follow- tng statement just before saliing: “Pefore this terrific war broke out I Bad the great fortune of having merved slmost two and a half years for my emperor as naval attache to the German embssy at Wastington. Those years be- long not only to the most interesting, but also to the most pleasant in my life. I particularly thankful for the rare comradeship of the Amerioan navy that I have been permitted’ to enjoy, due to the kindness of its gellant and amiable | officers. “The greats and cordlal hospitality | which s so proverbial for Americans | and which was extended also to me from the very first day of my arrival In the United Btates, I can never forget. “Ot course, 1 refrain at the hour of my @eparture from again refuting all the storles which were told about me in the A-:uum which mostly ilke the silly Huerts tale—were invented by the Providence Journal. “This paper, with its Rathom has done its an throughout the country prejudice public opinion asainst Ger- many, . i-mmn—wu. “We Germans d6 not understand what you call your ‘free press.’ Our laws al- low the fullest personal liberty tent with the weifare of the state.

PARCEL MAIL ABOARD SEIZED | ; NEW YORK, Dee. 28.—The steamer, United States, which arrived teday from Scandanavian ports, re- ported that on December 13 it was slopped east of the Shetland Islands Ly a British crulser and taken to Greenock for examination. There the British removed 1,961 small par- cels and 930 parcel post packages. The steamer was released on the 18th. Beocause they were held five days at Greenock, the 200 American eiti- zons aboard the United States drew up a vigorous protest against the aec- tion of the British government and will forward it to Secretary of State Lunsing. Mail for Holland Seized. BERLIN, Dec. 28.—(By Wireless to Say« ville.)~8elzure by the British govern- ment of American mail from two steam- whips on their way to Holland is reported in a Rotterdam dlapatch given out today by the Overseas News agency. According to the News agency dispatch the vessels from which mall was taken are the Dutch steamship Nieuw Amster- dam from New York, December 14, for Rotterdam and the Norweglan stea- NEW HAVEN SUITS miss Charges Aguinst Rockefel- ler and Other Directors.

The British government | has taken the stand that parcel post matter must be regarded as freight, ex- | empt from the protection given first class matter under the International | Postal convention. Washington is under- #tood to have concurred In this view. Wil Examine All Mail WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—The allies, it is explained here, Intend to seize and ex- | amine all mall passing between the United States and the European neutrals whicn there is reason to belleve ia intended for Germany, Hitherto, seizures have been confined to parcel post. In justification it ia sald that the allles | will first plead military necessity, and | second, that there is no Inviolability of mail to the Teutonle powers because Turkey, their ally, did not subscribe to The Hague convention which covers it Futhermore, the action Is based on an | article in The Hague convention provid- ing that immunity of selzure of mall shall not apply “to correspondence des- | tined for or proceeding from a blockaded | port.” Now Look Out, When a cold hangs on, as often hap- pens, or when you have hardly gotten over one colq beforo you contraet anotber, look out, for you are liable to contract some very serious disease. This succession of colds weakens the system and lowers the vitality so that you are much more lia- ble to contract chronic catarrh, pneumonta or consumption. Cure your cold while you can.

FORD MAN PREDICTS BARLY END OF WAR Louis Lochner Says Secret Informa- tion Will Soen Astonish the World. GREAT INFLUENCES AT WORK BTOCKHOLM, Dec. #8.— (Via Lon- don.)—The public meeting held last night under the auspices of the Ford peace expedition is characterized here as thé most enthusiastic demon- stration for peace that Burope has sren since the war began. Nearly 1,000 citizens of Stockholm attended. Fivery mention of an ear'y end to the war provoked prolonged applause, When Louis Lochner, secretary of the expedition, ahnounced that the executive committee had secret in- formation that certain ones of the bglli.snnt‘ nations were willing to negotiate for peace, the meeting be- came tumultous, “It would astonish the world,” sald Mr. Lochner, “if we made it known at this time what influences are at work for peace. This information has been in the possession of the executives of the expedition ever s'nce we sailed from New York. It was the real encouragement behind the expedition. We have every as- surance that our project will meet with favor, although at this time it cannot be said just what is behind the movement.” Aked Critiolses Wilson. The Rev, Charles ', Akod of San Fran- elsco declared in his speech that he re- gretted to say that Amerioa was not giving the peace idea such support as might be desired. He found fault with President Wilson for what he charac- terized the president’s failure to take the initiative in leading neutrals in a peace movement. The sucoess of the meeting, which was the first of & public charscter since the arrival of the party in Sweden, is atirib uted to the fact that most Swedes can understand Bnglish. For the benefit of those unable to understand English the #Desches were transiated by interpreters on the platform. Bach time peaker referred to the unity of meutrals in the deaire for peace the Academy of Music, where the meeting was held, rang with cheers. Jones Expects More Enconragement The Rev. Jenkin Lioyd Jones, chair- man of the executive committee, sald after the demonstration was over that it gave a great impetus to the expedi tion and argued further encouragement when the party reached Demmark and Holland, The committee announced that Sweden and Norway had arranged to send un- official delegations and that citizens from other meutral countries will attend the final peace conference. The expedition eaves Wednesday night for Copenhagen From that point it will proceed to Ths Hague, possibly by rallway through Ger- many. To Prevent the Grip.
