ment was made at the state department

Both France and Great Britain have

suggestion that Washington might call
to the attention of the Ecuadorian and
Colombian governments these alleged
acts in violation Of their neutrality.

until the British government presents
evidence in support Of Its charges This
the British government has not yet
done, andit is not known here whether
or not the London foreign office is
sending forward the details of the in
formation In Its possession.
Thus far the British government has
merely stated that it had informa ton

were using the Galapagos islands as a
base. Should the British carry the
matter further serious and delicate

land lays emphasis on the fact that
England to hunt down the Emden had
to call Australian, Japanese. French
and Russian warships to her assist
ance. Thus the German navy the
newspapers declare, has destroyed the
legend of British naval supremacy.
While the destruction Of the Emden
is regretted it has caused no surprise.
Regret is Offset by the satisfaction ex-
perienced over the victory at Dixmude

German Socialists Loyal.
The Prussion socialist deputy, Herr
Hirsch, in an article published in the
Socialist Monthly Review : lays en-
phasis upon the fact that the socialists
voted the Prussian war credits. This
proves again, he says. that the hope OF
Germany's enemies for internal dis
cord has not been fulfilled. In i'm
portant national affairs Germany is
unanimous, Herr Hirsch declares.
Another article in the Monthly Re-
view is by the Socialist Leader
Schmidt. He addresses himself to the
English socialists and declares that for
every 1000 men for military services
there are in Russia GIT illiterates. in
