MULES AND NEUTRALITY
INTEREST THE CABINET
ATTORNEY GENERAL KNOX GETS
FOR HIS FIRST ASSIGNMENT,
A MULE CASE,
AND THE NEUTRALITY LAWS.
CONGRESS MAY BE ASKED TO MAKE
AMENDMENTS UNDER GER
AIN CONDITIONS.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-The legal
proceedings at New Orleans to prevent
the shipment of mules purchased in
this country to South Africa was the
most important matter discussed by the
cabinet to-day, and the Attorney Cen
eral was directed to make an investiga-
ton of the question and report his
opinion to the cabinet. AS near as can
be learned, members of the cabinet
with legal training are of the opinion
that these proceedings are contrary to
the rights OF the government. The
view expressed is that when neutrality
proceedings are inaugurated in the
United States Courts they should be
brought in the name of the United
States, an alleged violation Of neutral
ICY being a question affecting nations,
not individuals. The mover of the pro-
ceedings in the New Orleans cas- Is a
man claiming to be a resident of South
Africa, who contends that his interests
are placed in jeopardy. 1t is pointed
out that if an individual could go into
the courts and secure restraining or
ders on the ground that the neutrality
laws of the country were being violated
the commerce of the country might be
seriously endangered. These views of
the New Orleans proceedings were
elected during a brief suggestion with
reference to the statement that the
British government had decided to use
no more American meat in it's army.
No official information exists concern
ing this report. Attorney General
Knox will make a thorough investiga-
ton of the New Orleans case. 1t if is
found that the neutrality laws are such
as to permit individuals to bring pro-
ceedings in courts, Congress may be
asked to pass such amendments as will
leave these questions wholly in the
hands OF the government.
The President submitted to the cab
met a very gratifying cable from Sec
rotary Hunt, of Porto Rico, expressing
the satisfaction with which the news of
Governor Aliens continuation at the
head OF the insular government had
been received there. The cable also de-
MED emphatically the reports of disaf-
lection, discomfort and restitution in
the island.

of the From San Juan.
WASHINGTON, April 12.-The various
interviews ascribed to Minister LOOMS at
San Juan have attracted much attention
here and the minister probably will be in
vited to explain some of his u~tterances if
he is not able to enter a broad denial of
the accuracy of the interviews. Reflec-
lions upon the personal character of the
president of Venezuela are not regarded
as proper according to official etiquette
and 1T is confidently hoped that the minis
ter will be able to repudiate these. Other
wise it would be manifestly impossible
for him to return to Venezuela, even in
the event that the issues which led to his
departure were satisfactorily composed.
The prevalent idea is that no matter how
these personal questions are settled, it will
be a long time before the United States
minister resumes the post at Caracas.
