BERLIN Jan. 19-1n the ReichstaS to-day
the debate on Herr. Moellers joint in
terpellation Of the government regarding
the seizure of German steamers by British
warships, was opened. Herr. Moelier laid
emphasis upon the fact that the sub
sidized line to which the vessels belonged
had observed the strictest neutrality and
suggested that a definition of the rights
of mail steamers is opportune.
The unloading of the Bundesrath he
added, could have been effected within a
few days. The action the speaker con-
tinue6, appeared arbitrary and it was
Germanys duty to demand security for
her ships in the future from all maritime
nations.
This statement was greeted with
