ITALIAN SHIPS SEIZED.
American Copper Masnates Protest
Aqainst Seizure by British.

Washington, Oct. 29-Representa- :
tives of four copper companies in New
York today protested to the state de-
partment that two Italian steamers the
San Giovanna and the Regina d'Italia
carrying several thousand tons OF
American copper to Italian ports. had
been detained by the British authori-
ties at Gibraltar.
No official information has been re-
ceived of the detention of the Italian
vessel from American Consul Sprague
at Gibraltar, who yesterday reported
the seizure of the American steamer
Kroonland. also laden with copper for
Naples and Greek ports.
Before taking officia! notice of the
seizure of these three vessels. state de-
partment officials will await full re-
ports of the circumstances under which
they are detained
AS the Italian vessel bears American
cargoes, even tho conditional contra
band, bound for neutral ports the state
department will take every measure to
protect the rights of the American
shippers.
1t is also understood here that Brit
ish warships held up the Norwegian
steamer Prosper III, from New York
r:;ca.!,.-e,, and took her to n port
in North Scotland.

London. Oct 29,--The onslaught of
the armies battling for mastery in the
Belgian marsh lands still lack the force
necessary to score u victory The
Germans have not reached the French
coast, nor have the allies frustrated
their determination to attain this goal,
Nevertheless British observers believe
the advantage rests with the allied
troops. The Germans assent to this
is of course only negative in character,
and takes the shape of confession of

their Opponents offense. That the re-
ported lull of fighting in this region is
only momentary is taken for granted,
but up to the present time no news of
the renewal OF the German offenscs has
come to hand. Both sides seem to be
endeavoring to line up afresh, and ac-
counts from all sources agree that the
Germans are only awaiting additional
troops to resume their bold thrust.
Allies to Take Offensive.
Meanwhile the allies commanders
announce ihat their forces are always
taking little more offensive, and in
substitute an attack upon the German
position in Belgium for the German
attack on the allies positions In the
north of France. If this occurs there
will recommence then series OF
siege battles for the German entrench-

From Madrid comes an unconflrmet
story Of the explosion of one of the
