ENGLAND MAY DEAL

UNITED STATES WAVES MONROE
DOCTRINE IN COLOMBIA
ECUADOR CASE

London, Nov. 2S.-Since the United
States indicated that it was willing
that England should deal direct with
Colombia and Ecuador concerning al
legged violations Of neutrality, the Brit
ish foreign war office has taken no
further action. Nevertheless, the de-
nials that German wireless station
is being operated in Colombia and
that islands belonging to Ecuador are
being used w the Germans for naval
operations are not accepted as finally
disposing of the case.
The suggestion Of South American
governments that the belligerents
withdraw their warships from South
American waters is declared by Eng
lish officials to be Impractical. The
same view is entertained concerning
the plan for the creation OF a neutral
one off the coast Of South America.
This, it is contended would afford
an even better chance for the war
ships to lie in wait for steamers en-
gagged in the overseas trade.
The foreign office is eager to take
action which would relieve South
American shipping from its present
serious handicaps, bit doubts the ef-
fectiveness Of measures so far pro
posed.

London, Nov. 2s.-While newspaper
reports from Petrograd continue to
claim victory in northern Poland com
parable at least to Sedan and even
worthy to rank with the disaster
which Russia inflicted upon Napoleon,
official communications shed but little
light on the situation in Poland.
An official dispatch from Grand
Duke Nicholas, commander IN chief of
the Russian forces in the field, while
of considerable length, concerns it
8sel6 largely with more or less isolat-
ed operations, and does not claim the
infliction of an overwhelming defeat
upon the invaders. Both Berlin and
Vienna still claim that no decisive re
suit has followed the recent opera
tions in Russian Poland On the
western battlefront the lull still pre-
walls, the only hint Of activity being
found in the report from Holland that
the British fleet again is operating
against the German positions on the
Belgian coast.

gator Of the Putumayo rubber afro
