British Foreign Office Is sues Memorandum Set ting Forth Reasons for Prize Court Proceedings and Investigations
WANT TO BUY ALL
 COTTON PMENTS
Cargoes Suspected of Be ing for Germany Held Up-Britain Would Keep Imports Low into Teu- tons Neighbors
[AssoCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHI

LONDON, May 20.-In an effort to correct what the government be- lieves to be a misunderstanding of Great Britain attitude toward Amer iCan ships and American cargoes in other than neutral bottoms, detained under order of the council, the for cign office has issued an explanatory memorandum. It declares the de tained ships are being investigated as rapidly as possible, and the gov ernment is ready to pay for the car goes of cotton as soon as papers showing the ownership and cost are received from America.
 The memorandum is supplemented by an explanation that the cotton Cargoes which the government agreed to purchase under the cotton agree ment, had all been bought by the government, and that actual details concerning the payment only await proof of ownership and papers show ing the actual contract price. which must come from the United States before the owners of the cotton can get their money. The memorandum says there are at present three American ships detained in England. Two are cotton ships, and the third is the steamer Joseph w. Fordney.
 The Fordney is being held for in- Vestigation because of suspicious ac- tion in trying to escape British War ships, and also because of the fact it was impossible to find any per son in Malmo, Sweden. by the name of r. Klingener. to whom the papers showed the cargo of foodstuffs was consigned For these reasons it is believed the cargo in reality is des- tined for Germany.
 The memorandum states the num- Der of neutral vessels carrying Amer ican cargoes at present held up num- bers &C., Of these g are cotton It also declared the British government has acted in accordance with agreements in Investigating cot ton cargoes in detained vessels con an impartial review of the facts it will. His Majesty's government feels sure" says the memorandum, be ad- mitted no arbitrary interference with American interests has, in regard to these cargoes, occurred"
 The memorandum admits a number of cases have been pending in the prize court for some time, but says these are principally cases of car goes of meats and lard oStenSibly consigned to Scandinavian ports It points out that negotiations were car ried on for several weeks with the representatives of American pack CTS for an arrangement designed to limit importation into neutral coun- tries adjacent to Germany to quan- titles actually required for home con sumption There were also negoti- ations for the purchase of the car goes of several of these ships. but the packers were demanding exorbi- tant terms

PARTIES GET
 TOGETHER FOR
 NEW CABINET
Sweeping Changes to Be Made in British Govern ment, Even Under-secre- taryships Being Divided Among Parties
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

LONDON, May 2O.-The national government to guide the British em pire for the duration of the war IS now in progress of formation. Lead CTS of the political parties were ir conference throughout the day, ar ranging the details. No statement was made concerning the personnel of the new ministry, except that Pre- mier AsqIith and Foreign Secre- tary Grey will remain at the posts they now hold. Earl Kitchener, sec retary of state for war, is gen orally agreed to have too much to do in the direction of the war, in raising new armies and in the or ganization and output of munitions and some of these duties will be shifted to other shoulders.
 Thus far all statements as to the allotment of officers has been based largely on surmise. It appears cer- tain. however. there will be a new civil head of the admiralty and war office, respectively. and possibly changes in the professional heads as well or at any rate, a readjustment of the responsibility.
 Chancellor of the EXchecquer Lloyd George, and Sir Andrew Bonar Law, leader of the opposition, are about equally favored for the civil head of the war office. A J. BalfOur is men tioned for a similar position in the arfniralty. In the latter case there is some doubt as to whether Balfour would accept the position.
 However, there is to be a con- plete change of the whole govern ment, including not only the cabinet but the ersecretaryships as well and posts will be distributed among liberals. unionists and laborists. ac- cording to their strength in the house of commons.

ID RAISE ARIZONA QUARANTINE
 FROM ALL NON- INFECTED STATES

Raising the bars that have for three months excluded from Arizona live stock from nearly all parts of tno country, the live stock sanitary board yesterday voted to recommend to the governor that shipments be admitted from all states which are not or have not been infected with The resolution will be transmitted to Governor Hunt today
 By the boards action Arizonafs drastic quarantine. which excludes shipments from all states except Texas, Colorado and New Mexico, will be modified to permit the en- trance of stock from every state west of the Mississippi. with the eX- ception of Kansas and Montana both of which have been infected and are now under strict federal quarantine. Although the resolution provides for the entrance of stock from all non infected states, it is not likely that much territory east of the Mississippi will be included, most of the eastern states having been, at one time or another, infected.
 The board also voted to recommend provided a written application for origin of shipment, ownership and destination is filed with the board for approval This regulation. it is point ed out, will prevent the introduction of cattle from infected districts south

JURY FAILS ID
 REACH VERDICT
 IN SEVEN HOURS
Locked Up for Night to Deliberate Whether Col. Roosevelt Libeled Barnes. Wins Sums Up for the Plaintiff
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHI

SYRACUSE, May 20.-The jury chosen to determine whether Colonel Roosevelt libeled Wm. Barnes. and if so, what sum would be commensurate to the damages sustained by the lat ter, was locked up late tonight after it had deliberateI moro than seven hours and failed to reach a verdict.
 A request involving politics was made by one juror on the single oc- casion when he and his companions were brought back into the court room. Juror No. 3, Walter Zuill, d Syracuse manufacturer, progressive, asked Justice Andrews, who presided at the trial, to reiterate that part of his charge in which he said that jurymen would not be performing their sworn duty if they considered politics or allowed their individu Il political beliefs te play any part in reaching q verdict.
 The jury retired at 3:45 o'clock this afternoon after Wm. Ivans, chief counsel for Barnes, had summed up the case of the plaintiff and Justice Andrews delivered his charge
 MT. Wins began his address by defining his duty and criticising MT Bowers for delving into politics.
 What" he asked, has the future usefulness of this defendant or even this plaintiff got to do with his action at law?"
 He discussed this subject at some detail, urging the jury to forget poli- tics, and remember that this is not a political controversy"
 Mir Wins referred to that part of the story told by Roosevelt as "a fairy tale''
 "The questions of this case is," said the lawyer, has any man a right to rob another of his honor? A man must fight for his honor as he would fight for his life"
 Coming down to the publication of the alleged libel. MT. Ivens said the article charged MT. Barnes with be- ing "a political Benedict Arnold" Then he said:
 This defendant has charged so many with being habitual falsifie1s that it has long since become a na- tionaI joke
 What does the word boss mean Q" he continued. "Tll tell you; it implies dishonorable occupation
 MT. Wins urged the jury, in con sidering the credibility of the de- fendant. to remember his statement in which he said he would never again be a candidate for president
 Mir. Wins recalled the editorials that had appeared in the Albany Evening Journal, and remarked:
 The Supposition here is that Mir Barnes is eminently crooked simply because he is so undeniabIy straight"
 Of the testimony Wm. Loeb, Nr Wins said:
 MT Loeb said that Mir Barnes confessed his dishonor to him. Can you imagine MT Barnes selecting the man to confess to that he had a deal with Chas Murphy of Tammany Hall? And when Barnes challenged the truth of this statement, MT. Loeb brought back with him as a witness to corroborate him the dread ful MT. Guggenheim"

Former Senator . Bailey, for Riggs National, De- clares Attorneys Juggled Information Respecting Loans
SAYS BANKING ACT
 WAS NOT VIOLATED
Amid Interruptions from Government Counsel, Mr. Bailey Explains Transac- tions Said to Have Been Illegal
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHl

WASHINGTON, May 20.-Bitter and contentious arguments of coun- sel and court in the case of the Riggs National bank against the secretary of the treasury, the comptroller of the currency, and the treasurer arose when former Senator Bailey presented to Justice Mccoy the banks opposi- tion to the motion to dismiss the tenn porary injunction granted against the treasury officials. The Bailey argument began the clash with the judge and the lawyer threatened to withdraw the case after a rebuke from the bench.
 Bailey later interrupted Samuel Untermeyer, counsel for the defend ants, who disputed the interpretation of facts many times.
 Before the arguments started the atmosphere was charged with tension by the denunciation from the bench of a newspaper representative for an incorrect report of yesterdays pro- ceedings which the judge character ized as deliberate if not malicious"
 The judge let it be known during the day that he would probably take the case under advisement for some time.
 Bailey declared that the withdrawal of government funds from the Riggs bank on the ground that it was not a commercial bank was without legal excuse Commercial paper, he said, was not better than the stocks and bonds in the assetts of this bank Attorneys for treasury officials, he declared, had distorted the showing of loans by the bank to treasury of ficials
 That we loaned money to officials of the treasury department is true" he said. But these gentlemen did not supply the whole record. If they had looked further they would have seen that We lend money to men not only in the treasury but in all the government departments If they had looked further again. they would have found that we lend money to members of the house and the sen ate. without regard to political faith, section or power. If the fact were that we loaned only to treasury of ficials there might be some claim that the loans were made to influence them
 Taking up the charge of Untermey- CT that the bank prospered by defy ing practically every section of the banking law, Bailey said:
 T challenge these gentlemen to prove that a single section of the bank act has been violated except the inconsequential deficiency of reserves admitted" The charge that officers, directors or employees of the bank held excessive loans was fIatly con- tradicted by MT. Bailey
 After several interruptions by MT. Untermeyer, MT. Bailey protested and he was supported by his associate Frank Hogan.
