BRITISH BROADEN
CONTRABAN LIST
Additions to Hit Trade of
the United States
il Hard:
MANY NEW TOWARRULES
Britain Getting Farther from Declare
tom Of LOndOn-Pnneipally Ex-
plosive Products Barred.

The British Embassy last night made
public a complete list of the additions
which Great Britain has made to her list
OF absolute contraband in the present
war. This list contains many products
never before listed as absolute contra
band d any war, and will impose further
restrictions upon American trade.
Greaf Britain's latest additions to the
list Of absolute contraband serve to en-
phasize more impressiyeIy than anything
that has yet occurred her determination
TO throw overheard altogether the regu-
lations of the Declaration Of London In
regard to cOntraband. When the war
first began Great Britain announced that
she would adhere as closely as possible
to these declarations, with n few excep-
tons On her list of absolute contraband
as now made up are many items not
found in the Declaration of London
Until the present war began much head
way had been made in the movement to
restrict interference by beIligerents with
the trade of neutraIs The tendency
seemed to be more and more TO assert
the principle that the rights of neutrals
were 20 be protected. With the dtsre-
garding Of the London declarations, the
swing now seems to be the other way.
and Great Britain apparently has started
out TO impose every restriction which win
help 70 starve Germany into submission
The additions to the contraband list an
nounced last night are chiefly materials
that might enter into the manufacture of
explosives Partly wrought copper and
copper wire are added to the list and so
also are rubber sulphur, giycerine, nd
zinc and lead ores. Unwrought copper
ALREADY ives on the list Of absolute con-
traband. The copper items probably will
hit the United States es hard as any.
Here are the additions TO the list: In
gradients Of explosives namely. nitric
acid, giycerine, aCetons, calcium acetate
and an other metallic acetates, sulphur
potassium nitrate. fractions of distilla-
tiOn products Of coal tar between benZOl

Chicago, June 29.--Scenes almost riotous marked the first game of the Cincinnati-Chi series which Chi cago won 10 to [. In the sixth in- ming Hoblitzell and Herzog were or dered to the clubhouse for protesting against decision by Umpire Eason. X few moments later one of the Reds threw a bat towards the play CTS bench, but his aim was poor and it landed in one of the field boxes and fans swarmed onto the field like a bunch of angry bees. They were finally quieted. Miller and Douglass were sent to join Hoblitzell and Her zog for continuing the argument with Umpire Eason. A few moments later Sweeney became angry when Moran spiked the second baseman's thumb in sliding to second and the pair had to be parted. Good was banished early in the game.
