wars possible.

BRITISH PROTEST ON TOLLS
Ambassador Bryce Reads Document to
Secretary Knox,


Washington.-Great Britains formal
note of protest against that section of
the Panama canal act which exempts
American coastwise shipping from pay
ments OF tolls for passing through the
Panama canal, was presented to Sec
retary of State Knox by the British am
bassader.
1t is an elaboration Of the points Of
objection in t. nete presented to the
state department last July. In brief,
these objections are:
That, while it was clearly in violation
OF the Hay-Pauncefote treaty either to
remit or refund tolls on all American
shipping using the canal, the same OBJ
jectian probably would apply to the
coastwise trade shipping, in view of the
probable impossibility of framing regu-
lations that would not result in prefer
ence to American shipping.
In addition to supporting these points
by long arguments, the protest indicates
very clearly that strong resistance will
be offered to any attempt to exclude
from the canal British ships owned by
Canadian railroads or whose owners may
be guilty of violating the Sherman anti.
trust act. He holds that this section
OF the act cannot apply to British ship.
ping, but only to United States vessels.
