MINING OF NORTH SEA
STIRS STATE DEPARTMENT
o. S. Asks What Closed That Body
of Water to NeutraIs.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 14-The State
Department. through Ambassador Page,
Is endeavoring TO ascertain the exact sit-
uation In regard to the mining of the
North Sea. which has resulted, practi-
cally In closing that body OF water TO
neutral trade.
Until more definite understanding OF
the facts is obtained the United States
Government does not feel in a position to
act on the suggestion made by other
neutral Governments. notably Holland.
Denmark, Sweden and Norway, that 4
protest be made to the British Govern
ment.
The difficulty lies in the fact that the
information which has so far reached the
state Department does not make II clear
whether the mines In the North Sea are
German or British mines The only an
nouncements on the subject have come
from Great Britain and these have, in
some cases, declared the Germans were
responsible for the mine menace and in
other cases have not indicated whether
OF not British mines were also being laid
in these waters.
Consequently the United States Govern
ment is at loss to select the one TO
which protest should be made

They have tried regulation of the

sloners in charge began operations in
1911, and this year will have a gross
revenue of S1,5O0,O00. After providing
sinking fund. depreciation and all
other legitimate charges, they will
show profit for 1914 of 800, COO This
has been accomplished after reducing
rates 30 per cent. as compared with
those prevailing before the civic sys-
tenn was established. The low rates
for electric power have greatly en-
couraged manufacturing in this city,
and have enabled the humblest citizen
10 have electric light in his home.
Owing to the low rates, the use OF
power has increased in Toronto from
1850 X. W. in 1910 TO $4,000 K. W.

A similar local system has been es-
tablished In all the important munich
