Issues War Risk Policy.

Washington, Jan. 22.-The state de-
partment has requested of the British
embassy information of why the
American steamer Greenbrier, from
New Orleans and Norfolk to Bremen,
with cotton under certificate Of the
British consul at New York, was
stopped by Esitish cruiser, sent I'M
der British flag to British port and
detained two days before being al
lowed to complete her voyage to
Bremen. ~ 6% Es5si4.t.'
The detention Of the Greenbrier was
brought to the attention of the state
department by kilograms from Cap"
tain Farley, her commander, now at
Bremen. =. Farley stated that the
Greenbrier was overhauled on Decem-
Der 80 by British cruiser. The board
ing officer required him to continue
on his course conveyed by the cruiser
for day or two while the cargo was
being searched for arms. .5}* vs.
y Then the cruiser placed aboard the
Greenbrier some additional British Of
flcers, hoisted the British flag, and a
prize crew, who nayigated the ship SO
that, according to Captain Farley, 1t
was damaged before it was brought
into Kirkwall. There the Greenbrier
remained for three days, Captain Far
ley refusing to sail 1t further except
underA the American flag. The British
authorities finally consented to the
raising of the American flag and Cap
tain Farley took his ship to Leith.
The points upon which. the state de-
partment wants information are, first,
why it was necessary to search the
Greenbrier in view OF the certificate
issued by the British consul at New
York, and second, why a neutral mer'
chant vessel was compelled to lower
its flag when under no known rule
could it be regarded as q prize. III.
Ambassador Page, at London, has
cabled the state department that
Great Britain would not agree to the
American proposal that. the steamship
Dacia be permitted to make voyage
to Germany with the cargo of cotton
it is loading at a Texas port.
Representatives Of the owner OF the
steamer Dacia have informed the
state department that as soon as load

voyage. so. ~ >,.,$4s. reg ~ y5iis'

N,a.poleonIet RUSS. '

There have been rumors of German
boats at Zeebrugge for
the invasion OF England. It is timely
to recall that Admiral Montagu re.
ported about Napoleon's fiat-bottomed
boats after he had captured one Of
them. SIN short, sir, these vessels to-
my mind are completely contemplate
and ridiculous, and Il therefore con.
clude that the number collected At

the qui vive and to gloss over the real

plated subduing England by means OF

Washington, Jan. 19.-Soaring wheat
prices and the threatened rise in the
cost Of bread caused President Wilson
to order two federal inquiries intended
to determine whether conditions are
due to natural economic causes,

been induced by the action Of specula-
tors seeking great profits. The presi-
dents first move was to direct Attor-
ney General Gregory to start nation
wide investigation for the purpose OF
ascertaining whether there has been
violation Of the antitrust laws. The
orders followed the demand made by
the executive committee of the Ma
tional Association of Retail Grocers
for such an inquiry. Legislation CIV
