ANOTHER NOTE ON
 ORDERs-IN-COUNCL Britain Asks U. s. to With hold Communication De
 livered Yesterday.

Washington, July 27.-sir Edward Grey cables Secretary Lansing today that the British government has in
 preparation another note to the
 United States on the orders-in-oouncil
 and asked that the note delivered yes- terday be withheld from publication
 pending receipt of the new comnuni-
 cation. Therefore the note Will not
 be published tomorrow. morning as had been planned.
 2. Secretary Lansing said the message from London stated that the a new note would be here in another week.
 In official querters the development was regarded as highly significant. The belief prevailed that the last American note to Germany, with iss references to the freedom of the seas, may have informed Great Britain to place herself on record as willing to take consideration any new su y;es- tions by the United States to the belligerents.
 Sir Edward Grey's request thot the note received yesterday be with held was taken to mean >>t ali events lHat d new LOD na0 arisen, or that some new proposals were about to be made by Great Britain to all eviate the effects of the order in council
 In view of the development. Secre- tary Lansing declined to discuss the British note, but took occasion to- day to dcny reports that cotton was about to be placed on he contraband list by Great Britain. MT Lansing declared there has been no discussion whatever between the State Depart ment and the British embassy here or the British foreign office in Lon- don relative to a change in the non- contraband status of cotton
 No indication of the mature of the forthcoming note was given in Sir Edwards cable and state department cficials have no intimation. They assume, however, that II IS of a sup elemental nature. The developrnent will further delay dispatch of the American note to Grear z5ritasn on the same subject. Secretary Lansing had about finished it and it was to be sent to President Wilson at Cornish, N. H. for his approval. It will not be dis patched until the new British note has been received and considered.

Bridgeport, Conn, July 27.-The change in the labor troubles situation in Bridgeport this afternoon as com pared with that existing last week when machinists, millwrights and structural iron workers employed by the Remington Arms and Ammunition CO, caused a considerable number to go on strike was that those strikers employed in the construction trades are at work Yesterday the struc- tural iron workers employed on new buildings for the Remington company again struck out of sympathy for the machinists who were not taken back.
