stores without security $500, 900 In cash
which was received from the sale OF

poration soon after it was organized in
June, 1909. McMeckin's objection to the

led to the stores giving demand notes

mans had indiscrlminateiy mined the
trade route between America and Liver

just after the superdreadnought Auda-

ENJOYS TO FIND
WH0LAID MINES
London Hears Page and &C.
rard Have Been Told
to Investigate.
RESULT OF PROTEST.
BY NEUTRAL NATIONS
Special cable Despatch 70 Tnr srS.

LONDON. Nov. ia report has
reached here from Washington to the
effect that the United States has ir-
structed Mr.. Page, the American AM
bassador here. and Mr.. Gerard, the
American Ambassador at Berlin. to OBJ
tain the fullest information as to the
responsibility for the laying of mines
in the North Sea.
This news is welcomed here. as the
British attitude is that whatever mines
the English have laid have been neces-
sary as counter moves to the activities
Of the Germans in this direction. The
British area of mines has been
thoroughly defined, although since the
discovery that the mine laying by the
Germans extended even to the north
coast Of Ireland by means Of which the
White star liner Olympic was en-
dangered. it has been largely extende l.
The British Government regrets ex-
ceedingly that the action Of Germany
forced her to counter mine laying. This
view was expressed in protest issue!
by the Foreign Office on September ~
to all neutral nations, in which the
means of warfare and the conduct re-
sorted to by the Germans were emphati-
Cally reprobated and the feeling was
expressed that its manifest inhumanty
must call upon the author the censure
IF all civilized peoples.
| Up to the date OF this protest mines
had been found as much as nifty mles
( from the coast. They had caused the
destruction of eight neutral and seven
British merchantmen and fishing vessels
and the death of sixty neutral, nom
/ CQmbatant persons.
