SUBMARINE FORCED
RESCUE ship AWAY
Etonian, Going to Lusi-

Another Vessel.

Boston, May 1S.-According TO her
captain, W. F. Wood, the Leyland Line
steamer Etonian, which arrived from
Liverpool to-day, was prevented from
going to the rescue OF the passengers
Of The sinking Lusitania by a warning
that all attack might be made on his
own vessel.
The Etonian lett Liverpool May 6.
When Captain Wood vas some forty
niles from Kinsale he received wire

Captain Wood said:

AT that very moment ! saw the

minutes. Our speed was perhaps two
miles an hour better than the subma

r. VI. Simpson, a Canadian doctor,
stated in an interview that the subma-

that the weather was cold a. the time
and that there were few passengers on
deck. A number Of persons, however,
saw the periscope of the submarine
distinctly. The chief engineer was one
of them, and a young Scottish steward
named Young also got a good view
of it.
Mr.. Harty. an engineer, who was
passenger on the liner, stated that he
saw the submarine disappearing under
the water. It sent out wave like
fish cleaying the surface. The wave
was only about two lengths OF the
away from the ship and
was almost directly astern.
A number Of other passengers told
similar stories, but others said they
knew nothing Of the occurrence until
told next day Aboard the ship was a
large party Of Red Cross nurses.
Several of the passengers declare
that they saw a white streak Of foam
marking the course Of the projectile,

NOTE ON DETAINED
SHIPPING HELD UP
State Department Wants to
Find Out if British Intend
. TO Facilitate Matters.
.r-on The r1b-1, Bu,ssuI

Washington, May 1s.-British diplo-
mats express little or no concern over
the promise that within a few days q
note will be sent from the State De
partment 10 the British Foreign Office
f. directing attention 10 numerous cases
Of detained ships and cargoes. princl-
, pally of cotton. wnere the American
shippers assert they are made the SUI
ferers through protracted litigation be
lore the cargo is bought in, as prom
ised by the British government
At the State Department II was sald
that. although the department was IN
possession of numerous data tend
ing 70 show that American cargoes
have been detained for protrGcted
periods, the preparation Of note mas
not been started. and II IS the dlsposi-
ton Of the department 70 await further
developments and 20 ascertain II the
British intend 10 facilitate the pro-
ccedings or persistently delay adJudi-
cation.
3D. There are twenty-four cargoes de
tanned n British ports at present. OF
sthese only one has been properly Ger
titled by It's owners az TO the contract
price a. which the staple was sold TO
the foreign purchasers. The British
feel that, although they have an
nounced their willingness to buy in
the cargoes az the contract price, they
cannot consummate their agreement IN
the absence of sufficient and salts
factory data as 70 the actual price at
which the cotton was sold abroad.
The British fear that in the claims
which are being prepared q disposition
will be exhibited by the shippers 70
boost the cargo values to meet price
advances abroad. This, II Is pointed
out, is outside the British promise.
They did not agree TO follow the
course Of the market in buying in the
American goods, but 10 buy in the de-
tanned cargoes at contract purchase
price, thus assuring the shippers
against loss through inability 20 get
their goods TO the original market
State Department officials, IN view OF
the circumstances. are not disposed 10
rush matters. They are as anxious as
the shippers 20 get proper compen-
sation for the owners Of the cargoes,
but al the same time the State Depart
rnent can hardly be expected TO lend
itself TO the holding UP Of the British
government for price accretons IN the
European markets.
II is regarded here as highly deroga-
tory 20 the standing Of American com
mercial houses that out Of twenty four
cases now In adjudication only one has
been properly prepared.
