SAY IT WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO
PROLONG "PACIFlC BLOCKADE"
Students of International Law Say Such Tactics Will Not Hold
When Vessels of Third Nation Are Subjected to Inter
ference-coudert Points to Possible Complications

NEW YORK, April H.-Can Presi-
dent Wilson blockade the ports of
Mexico without making war on that
country? Does his declaration that
under no conceivable circumstances
would we fight the people of Mexico
mean that he intends to establish a
so-called pacific blockade?'
Can there be "pacific blockade" if
the vessels of a third nation are sub
jected to Interference and seizure?
How can the President hope to bring
General Huerta to terms if the YES
sells of other nations are not forced to
respect the blockade?
These questions were ON the lips of
many students of international law
yesterday as they read the Presidents
address to Congress. They questioned
the effectiveness of q retaliatory
measure of any plan that did not con
template the seizure of Mexicon ports
or the seizure of vessels that attempt
to enter or leave these ports after a
blockade had been established and
called attention to the fact that the
vast majority of writers on interna-
tional law agree that there can be no
such seizure unless war exists. a
condition of war is a condition OF
fact and does not wait upon the for
NAL pronouncement of governments.
Frederic r. Coudert pointed out
some of the difficulties lying in the
aa5 % establishing a ''pac fic block
ade" without actually involving the
country in a war. In his opinion any
blockade must have the authority of
force behind it and the employment
of force is tantamount to war.
when we speak of pacific block
ade,'" he said, we are dealing with
matters of near Technology. A
blockade is an act that interrupts the
usual acts of peace. 1t is a measure
of force in that 1T prevents the in
gress and egress of vessels from the
ports of the blockaded country, and
N so far as force is usued it Is a
measure of war.
Nearly always a pacific blockade
S incident to war. The nation whose
ports are blockaded m ght acquies ee
and refuse to treat the blockade as

RESUME STRIKE
BATTLE IN WHICH
IS WERE KILLED
Militia in Colorado Mine Dis
tricts Get Reinforce
ments.

TRINIDAD, Col, April 21.-Thir-
teen were believed to be dead and the
number of wounded was unknown
when day dawned on the Ludlow
battlefield, where yesterday 100 mi
litiamen and deputy sheriffs fought a
battle with strikers.
Throughout the night bodies of
strikers, heavily armed, moved from
various coal camps toward Ludlow
and a renewal of the conflict was eX-
pected momentarily. Eighty-seVen
miiitiamen from Lamar and Waisen-
burg, ordered last night by General
Chase, reached the scene of conflict
during the forenoon.
Some of Dead Identified.
The known dead:

ordered to halt he is said to have
oiened fire with revolver and was
killed by a return yolley from the
militia.
Dead Along Railroad Tracks.
Yesterdays battle centered about
the big trestle of the Colorado and
South Eastern railroad and several
dead were said to be lying along the
tracks, behind which the strikers
took refuge.
Throughout the day and intermit
tently during the night, the lighting
ragged oyer an area of approximately
three SQUARE miles, bounded on the
West by BerWind and Hastings, on
the East by Barnes Station. on the
North by the Ludlow tent colony and
on the South by Rameyville. The
battlefield was comp etely isolated
by the cutting of telegraph and tele-
phone wires.
The fighting began early yesterday.
when a militia detachment under
Lieutenant Linderfelt started to in
vestigate the cause of firing near
Cedar Hill. As the day progressed
word of the clash reached officials.

sufficient cause for war A weak ma
tion might accept the blockade as a,
declaration of war so as TO force the
blockading nation to take more dras-
tic measures against it. There ds an
enormous mass of opinion on the
question of blackading and the rules
governing regular blockade are well
settled, but discussion of pacific
blockade is very much a discussion OF
wordS.'
Students of international law see
difficulties ahead for the United States
If vessels of other nations are pre-
vented from entering or leaving Mex
leo. 1t is apparent that To be effec-
tive the blockade must be maintained
against all vessels, but such block
ade cannot be maintained unless there
is war. This difficulty forced the
Venezuelan declaration, as it did the
declaration of France in 1894 that she
was at war with China, On that oe-
casion Great Britain refused to re-
spect the blockade until France made
the declaration. Writers on these
questions seem to agree that a pacific
blockade may be effective when the
blockaded nations ships are most af-
fected. There could be no such possi-
lility in the case of Mexico, whose inn
ports and exports are carried by YES
sells of other nations.
Mr.. Coudert pointed out that while
the effectiveness Of a pacific blockade
depends almost entirely upon the at
titude toward it of other nations than
the two directly concerned, there is
no such room for disagreement where
a war blockade is in force.
Such a blockade affects the vessels
of all nations he said. 1T inter-
feres with their freedom on the sea-
but they allow each other to take
away this freedom when the blockade
complies with certain conditions 1t
must be an actual blockade. There
used to be paper blockades, but dur
ing the Napoleonic wars it was es-
tablished that vessels seized during a
paper blockade must be released.
There are many rules governing war
blockades and all nations recognize
them. The rules are far less certain
when attempts are made to estab ish
blockades without declaring war
