Close to 7,000 women were assembling at 3.30 o'clock to take part In a monster Red Cross demonstration. The hearts of thousands who have husbands, sons, brothers and sweet hearts went into the pageant design ed not only to open the great Red Cross drive here for $150,000, the <'ity's quota of the $100,000,000 na tional fund, but to show the men who have gone to the front in France that they will not be lighting their na tion's battles alone. Business is to come at a standstill between 4 and 5 o'clock this after noon while the pageant is moving. Shops and stores are to close. The Harrisburg Telegraph went to press with but one edition and scores of industries let down for an hour in double honor to the tramp, tramp, tramp of women's marching feet and the members of the Keystone divi sion now in camp in France. Streets Congested The downtown streets this after noon were congested as they have not been for a long time, particularly those thoroughfares on which the various divisions of to-day's monster Red Cross parade are mobilizing. The street cars shortly after 2 o'clock began to bring hundreds of white garbed women to the central city. Front street was a living mass of white, while State, North, Liberty and other streets, facing Front had their hundreds of prospective march ers. With good weather assured early to-day hundreds of women who had been rather timid about participa tion in the parade suddenly made up tlieir minds to march or die—and the telephone companies report peak loads of unusual weight at unusual times. To Move at -I O'clock The parade is to move promptly at 4 o'clock. Promptness was assured when the executive committee, Mrs. Lyman D. Gilbert, Mrs. M. EJ. Olm sted and Miss Anne McCormiek. di rected that all marchers be in their stations at 3 o'clock. Allowing for the traditional and legendary dila toriness of womankind, as the circus announcer might put it, every one of the 7,000 women and the Junior Red Cross members was on hand before 3.30, so that when Captain Harry Stine, the chief director, waves his hand at 4 o'clock, the procession will get under way. Captain Stine is being assisted by Captain Hoy and Captain Lauben stein, and the mounted aids cxperi- j e-nced very little difficulty in getting the heavy divisions-in proper line. A Muss of Color The reviewing stand in Front street, at State, is a mass of color. The parade will pass this stand on the return journey, after covering the following route: From Front into Market, to Fourth, to Walnut, to Third, to Reily, to Second, to Ntfrth, to Front, and '.hence past the reviewing stand to Market and disband. In order to avoid confusion at the intersection of Market and Front streets, it is urged that the various units, following the parade, retain their form and march away, continu ing in order until after leaving the I Square. The great, majority of downtown business places were very prettily decorated today, the flags of the al lies and the Red Cross Hags being [Continued on Page |.] Use Your Coupons From Liberty Bonds For War Stamps &3T Make two nest eggs J THE WEATHER 1 For IfurrlMliui-K n<! vicinity!

ANNA HAMILTON WOOD, For the Telegraph- RED CROSS IS ON JOB FOR TROOPS AT EARLY HOUR Two Hundred Soldiers Thank ful For Hot Coffee at 5 A. M. Workers to Report For Red Cross A IJLI members of teams taking part in next week's Second War Fund drive are urged to be present at Chestnut Street Auditorium Monday evening at 7.30, to receive full instructions and supplies for the campaign which begins Tuesday morning. Two hundred tired United States soldiers on the way to "somewhere in America" got their hot coffee at the Pennsylvania Station this morn ing at 5.30, despite the fact that a message warning the local Red Cross canteen service of their coming was not received in Harrisburg until 3.30. The Red Cross canteen takes care of soldiers 'passing through Harris burg. The* are particularly solici tous about those coming from a great distance. They have served meals at all hours of the day and night, but this morning's service ap proached, if it did not break the record. At 3.30 o'clock this morning the following telegram was received by the Red Cross: "Two hundred troops due Harris burg 5.30 in morning. Please de liver 20 gallons hot coffee mixed with cream and sugar." The message was sent by an in fantry captain, " 'way back, up the line," somewhere in Pennsylvania. That meant action. • But the Red Cross is used to ac tion. When the soldiers arrived the 20 gallons of coffee was waiting. It was hot; and it contained cream and sugar. And the 200 tired and sleepy soldiers of the United States of America wrote it down in their little diaries that among the real town on the map is Harrisburg, Pa.

SINN FEINERS CAUGHT IN HUN PLOT TO LAND FOE ON COAST Viscount French Issues a Proclamation Telling of Treason and Arrests Are Made in Dublin ACTION NONE TOO SOON, SAY IRISH Prisoners in Custody on Warrants Issued Under Defense of Realm Act; Manifesto a Surprise London, May 18.—With all signs pointing to another outbreak of armed violence, possibly in connec tion with the landing of German troops on Irish shores, the ar.rest of prominent Sinn Feiners in Dublin and Belfast has not been made a moment too soon, say,s the Irish Times to-day. According to an Ex change Telegraph dispatch from Dublin, Prof. Edjyard De Valera. president of the Sinn Fein, Arthur Griffith, founder of the Sinn Fein, Countess Markievicz, Dr. Thomas Dillon, William Cosgrave, Sinn Fein M.

Discovery of the Germa# plot was announced last night in Dublin by the issuance of a proclamation signed by Edward Shortt, chief sec retary for Ireland,, in the name of the lord lieutenant. Viscount French. In Dublin the arrest of the Sinn Fein leaders and the issuance of Lord French's proclamation came as a complete surprise, says the Irish Times. So far as has been ascer tained, no formal charge has yet been preferied against the prisoners. They were taken into custody on warrants issued under the Defense of the Realm act. Belfast, Ireland, May 18.—A num ber of Sinn Feiners were arrested here late last night and removed to the military barracks. Among those arrested here are Joseph McGuin ness, Sinn Fein member of parlia ment for the southern division of County Longford; J. McGrath, Wal ter Scoles, John M. Centee, a Belfast Sinn Feiner, who was sentenced to death in connection with events at Dundalk during the rebellion of 1916, and Denes McCullough, an other Sinn Feiner. Prof.'De Valera, William Cpsgrave and (Countee Markievicz all were arrested for the parts they played in the Sin Fein revolt in Dublin in Easter week of 19 Hi, when the short lived IVish republic came into being. All were sentenced to death, but this was commuted later to life imprisonment. After several months in prison all were released. One of the most prominent fig ures in the Dublin revolt in 1916 was Countess Markievicz. She led a part of the Sinn Fein forces and was reported to have per sonally killed a guard in an effort to capture Dublin Castle. She returned to Dublin last July. Last "December 3, two boys were arrested while car rying high, explosives from Scotland to Ireland. They were reported to be members of a boy scout organi zation headed by Countess Mar kievicz.

Warden Mcllhenny reported that he has 14 8 male prisoners, most of whom might be put to productive work. The r labor on the highways would release more fortunate men for other necessary tasks, it was said. Mr. Wilson explained to prison officials that the cost and trouble of making effective the proposed plan ought not to be weighed against the patriotism of the project. The county's charitable institu tions were inspected during Mr. Wil son's stay in the city and he report ed them, particularly the almshouse, to be in splendid condition. Marked improvement has been made there within the last two years, he de clared. Mr. WilsQn advocated the build ing of a municipal hospital near the almshouse site, to supersede the di. lapidated "pesthouse" which he said was unfit for the purposes to which it was put.' The "hospital" has been in use all spring because of the smallpox epidemic. Reserves Have Big Program Ahead Members of the Harrisburg Re serves drilled last night in the two company formation for the first time and went over streets in the upper part of the city, forming hollow squares and other details of riot duty.

Hoy gave his com pany a stilt march over the upper end of the city and commandeered the lawn at the residence of K. S. Herman for a "setting up" exercise. Captain L V. Harvey had a drill In Verbeke and adjoining streets. Major H. M. Stine plans drills on the Island very shortly.
