Creates Practical Monopoly.

"The Department of State has been
informed by Minister Van Dyke that
the Netherlands government has made
contract with the Holland-American
line whereby the ships of that line
carrying cargo bought by or consigned
to the Netherlands government will
not accept private consignments Of
contraband or conditional contraband,
thereby creating a practical govern
mental monopoly of embargoes on ce-
reals and cattle foods. Shipments of
flour and other foodstuffs consigned
to private firms in Holland will not
be barred from Dutch ports when car
ried in American or other neutral ves-
sells, but the Holland-American line
connot accept such shipments.
The Netherlands government does
not intend to forbid the fulfillment of
private contracts, but under the exist
ing conditions private Dutch importers
having such contracts for American food
stuffs should apply to the department
of commerce of the Netherlands gov
ernment for permission to have ga
goods consigned to or bought by the
Dutch government.
This information was sought and OBJ
tanned at the instance of certain Amer
ican Touring mills and other exporters
of foodstuffs."
Ambassador Page has reported from

While State Department officials re-

monopoly established by Holland over
the importation into the Netherlands Of
flour, foodstuffs. cereals and cattle foods
it is known that the American govern
ment has no way of interfering with
such a monopoly.
Such an act is entirely within the
sovereign right of any nation. il is

Just what efforts would he made by
millers to obtain ships that would
carry their flour to Dutch ports is not
known here, but a move in that direc-
tion seemed to officials to offer pos
sib!e solution of the problem.
The State Department has announced
that the Netherlands government
has entered into contract with the
Holland American line, the only neu-
trail steamship line plying regularly
between ports in the United States and
the Netherlands, whereby private ship
ments will not be accepted by that
steamship line.
Definite information as to Holland
position has been sought by American
millers, who protested to the State De-
partment that the action of Holland,
if followed by other neutral countries.
would demoralize the American flour
trade. The following statement was

GOLFERS
TO VISIT AMERICA
ENGLISH AMATEURS EXPECT TO
CONTEND FOR NATIONAL
CHAMPIONSHIP.

New York, June 1s.-There is a
strong probability of several British
amateurs coming here for the national
golf championship at Ekwanok in
September, according to Jerome D.
Trayers, amateur champion golfer OF
the United States, who returned We'd
nesday on the Olympic from his sue
cessful quest of the British title.
Who would be in the body of Britons
to seek the championship here TRAY.
ers could not say.
Another bit of news brought By
Travers is that there is considerable
discussion in England as to the advis-
ability of changing the conditions Tor
the British championship to a system
somewhat similar to that used in
America. He said it was probable that
the British authorities would provide
for a thirty-six hole qualifying round
another year as a NEAR of reducing
the championship fields.
Travers probably will not appear in
local tournaments until late this sea-
son owing to the recent death Of his
brother.

Washington, D. c., June 19.-The
house today pressed toward a vote the
election contest for the seat OF the
twelfth Missouri district between l..
G. Dyer, the incumbent republican,
and Michael ]. Gill, democrat. A ma
jority Of the elections committee,
which reported resolutions ~unseating
Dyer and giving Gill the place, n
tended that the election in 1912 was
SO tainted with fraud that the re-
turns from seven election precincts
should be thrown out. That would
give Gill the election by a plurality
of 67. Representatives Mackenzie
and Shreve, republicans, presented a
minority report with a resolution d.
recting the committee to make a fur
Their Investigation. They maintained
that under the Missouri statute the
ballot Of each voter in the
disputed precincts could be investigat-
ed and the true vote found, thus obvi-
ating the necessity of throwing out
the entire poll.
