WHAT ENGLAND COMEDIES.

That the answer is highly satisfac-
tory; that 1t is broad and liberal in
terms. The position assumed by the
British government is that foodstuns
in transit to Il hostile destination can
be regarded as contraband OF war only
when they are supplies for the enemy's
forces. 1t is not sufficient that they are
capable of being used for the benefit of
the enemy; it must be shown that they
are SO in fact through their destination
at the time of the seizure. The British
government does not claim that any
of the American goods on the German
bark Maria. and the British bark Ma
shona were contraband of war. The
British government is Investigating the
facts in connection with The goods

CHARACTER or GOODS.

1t is believed that the uncertainty as
TO the character of the Beatrice's cargo
is based upon an imperfect knowledge
of the ownership OF the goods. The
American consignors. however, evil

exist on that point. have come forward
with the positive statement that they
have not hecn paid for the goods ship
ped, and that the drafts drawn by the
consignees in South Africa were not
collcctablc until the goods were safely
delivered at their destination. The
two governments will now seek TO cs-
tablish the character of these goods
Later In the day the following official
statement was given out by the State
Departments:
a telegram has been received from
Ambassador Choate reporting an inter
view had by him with the Marquis of
Salisbury on the afternoon OF the 10th
instant in regard to the American ship
ments of -four and provisions on the
detained British steamers Beatrice and
Mashona, and the Dutch steamer Ma
ria. The British position as to food
stuff and hostile destination il; that
they can only be considered contra
band OF war if supplied for the enemys
forces, 1t not being sufficient that they
are capable OF being SO used, but it
must be shown that this was their des-
tination at Thea time Of seizure. This
qualification Virtually comedies the
American contention that the goods
were not subject to seizure. and prac-
tically disavows the seizure; it not be-
ing claimed that there Is any evidence
of hostile destination.

(By Telegraph to Virginian- Pilot.)
Washington, Jan. 1.-THE answer of
the British government to Mr. Choate's
representations respecting the seizures
OF American -four and others goods on
the three vessels, Beatrice. Mashona
and Maria, has been received. Just as
the officials of the State. Department
expected, it amounted to n partial an
swer, very satisfactory, as far as 1t
goes. disposing of the character of some
OF the goods seized, but not finally de-
Gliding broadly whether or not food
stuffs are to be regarded as contraband
The British government adopted pre-
cisely the point of view regarding the
seized goods that was assumed by the
State Department and embodied by Mr.
Choate in his note on the subject adj
dressed to the British Foreign Office.
In brief. Mr. Choate reports as fol-

FROM THE BERN UDAS.

Mr., and Mrs. {. Spcnsley sailed
from New York on the 18th of Febru-
airy, for the Bermudas, which they
reached in due time, after IL very
stormy passage. In Il letter to Rev.
M. Chase, Mrs. Spensley says
awe had a very rough passage,
getting the tail end of u hurricane
from the West Indies. The waves
washed entirely over the ship, and we
were battened down for twelve hours.
Thursday morning, at sunrise, we
were floating on a CLASSY tropical
sea, close to the islands. The
delight of reaching land was intcnsi-
fled by the beauties which spread out
ON every hand. The wonderful trans
parency of the water, the numerous
islands, making new pictures at every
turn, the flowers which almost hide
the houses, which peep out here and
there, made up u scene as rare as it
is beautiful,
=" We made our way through the
labyrinth of islands, and q sudden
turn brought us to the pretty land
locked harbor of Hamilton. We
landed just opposite Front street, the
principal bushes street Of the town.
The streets are hard, smooth and
white, made of the coral rock of
which the island is composed. \
Zone Of the first things that strike
the visitor is the appearance of lazy
well TODD comfort which pervades the
island. Instead of tumble-down shan
tics, the poorest negro seems to dwell
in marble halls. The houses are
built of snowwhite stone, which UNI
derles every foot of the island
When first quarried, it is so soft that
it is cut into blocks, and it hardens
when exposed to the air, and is so
durable that u house built of it will
last for centuries. The roofs are COW
cred with the same stone, sawed into
shingles. There is not II fence to be
seen, just white stone walls-milcs of
them, The place is filled with worm
out business men, who come here for
rest. There are no papers: not Il fac
tory, Except one for making ice no
horse or electric cars. 1T is like one
beautiful garden all over. The water
ripples here and there, making one
