warranted as such detentions are in the opinion of this government, America n exporters are further perplexed by the apparent indecision of the British au thorities in applying their own rules to neutral cargoes For example. a shipment of copper from this country to a specified consignee in Sweden was detained because. as was stated by Great Britain. Sweden had placed no embargo on copper On the other hand Italy not only prohibited the export of copper, but as this government Is in formed put in force a decree that ship ments to Italian consignees or ito order" which arrived in ports of Italy cannot be exported or transported

governments as to non- eXportation of contraband goods when consigned to named persons in the territories of those governments, and that orders had been given to the British fleet and GUS toms authorities to restrict interfer- ence with neutral vessels carrying such cargoes so consigned to verIfication of ships papers and cargoes
 1t is, therefore, a matter of deep regret, that, though nearly five months have passed since the war began the British government have not material ly changed their policy and do not treat less vigorously ships and cargoes passing between neutral ports in the peaceful pursuit of lawful commerce. which belligerents should protect rath- CT than interrupt The greater free dom from detention and seizure which was confidently expected to result from consigned shipments 10 definite consignees. rather than "to order" is still awaited.
 It is needless to point ont to his majestys government, usually the champion of the freedom of the seas. and the rights of trade. that peace, not war, is the normal relation between nations and that the commerce between countries which are not belieerents should not be interfered with by those al war unless such interference is manifestly an imperative necessity to protect their national safety and then only to the extent that it is a necos- sity.
 It is with no lack of appreciation of the momentous nature of the present struggle, in which Great Britain is gain undue commercial advantage that this government is reluctantly forced to the conclusion that the present policy of his majesty's government toward neutral ships and careoes exceeds the manifest necessity of d bellieerent and constitutes restrictions upon the rights of American citizens on the high seas, which are not Justified by the rules of international law or required under the principle of self preservation
 The government of the United States does not intend at this time to discuss the propriety of including certain articles in the list of absolute and conditional contraband which have been proclaimed by his majesty Open to objection, as some of these seem to this government, the chief ground of present complaint is the treatment of cargoes of both classes of articles when bound to neutral ports
 Articles listed as absolute contra band shipped from the United States and consigned to neutral countries have been seized and detained on the ground that the countries to which they were destined have not prohibited the eXportation of such articles t'n-

TEXT OF NOTE TO ENGLAND
 MUTUALLY GIVEN OUT

WASH1NGTON.-By mutual agree ment between the state department and the British foreign office the full text of the note by the United states to Great Britian. insisting on an early improvement in the treatment of American commerce by the British fleet. was made public.
 The full text follows:
 The Secretary of State to the Amer can ambassador to London
 Department of State.
 Washington. D. G. Dec 2G, 1914
 The present condition of American foreign trade resulting from the ire quent seizures and detentions of Amer ican cargoes destined to neutral Eu- ropean ports has become so serious as to require a candid statement of the views of this government in order that the British government may be fully informed as to the attitude of the United States toward the policy which has been pursued hv the British au- thorities during the present war
 You, will therefore communicate the following to his majestys principal secretary of state for foreign affairs, but in doing So you will assure him that il is done in the most friendly spirit and in the belief that frankness will better serve the convenience oi cordial relations between the two coun- tries than silence, which may be con strued into acquiescence in course of conduct which this government cannot but consider to be an infringement upon the rights of American citizens.
 The government of the United States has viewed with growing concern the large number of vessels laden with American goods destined to neutral ports ill Europe which have been seized on the high seas. taken into British ports and detained sometimes for weeks by the British authorities During the carly days of the war this government assumed that the policy adopted by tho British government was due to the un- expected outbreak of hostilities and the necessity of immediate action to pre- vent contraband from reaching the enemy. For this reason it was not dis posed to judge this policy harshly or protest it vigorously. although it was manifestly very injurious to American trade with the neutral countries of Europe
 This government, relies confidently upon the high regard which Great Britain has so often exhibited in the past for the rights of other nations, confidently awaited amendment to neu- tral commerce the freedom to which it was entitled by the law of nations
 This expectation seemed to be ren . dered the more assured by the state ment that the British government was satisfied with guarantees offered by the Norwegian, Swedish and Danish
