John Bull Does Not Agree With Uncle
SONS Policy.


Great Britain's replies to the latest
American representations against in
reference with neutral commerce
reject entirely the contention that the
orders in council are illegal and justi-
fly the British course as being wholly
within international law.
"Unsustainable either in point OF
law or upon principles of interna-
tional equity" is the British reply TO
the American protest against the
blockade of neutral ports, with an in
vitation to submit to international
arbitration any cases in which the
United States is dissatisfied with the
action of British prize courts.
Great Britian's reply embodied in
two notes, one supplemental, was
made public at Washington, Tuesday.
and in London simultaneously by
agreement between the two govern
ments. With the notes was made
public also the correspondence over
the American steamer Neches, seized
by the British while en- route from
Rotterdam to the United States with
goods of German origin.

lNadzaryn front had been carried out
unhindered, was taken to indi-
cate that Grand Duke Nicholas had
everything in readiness for the
evacuation of Warsaw itself and the
announcement in Berlin statement
that only a stubborn rear guard
blocked the advance of the Germans
seemed to confirm that the main army
with its guns has escaped being
caught in the citadel.
The effect of the fall of Warsaw
now is absorbing the attention of the
British officials and public. 1t is ex-
pected that the German emperor and
empress will make a royal entry in
accordance with plans long matured.
What part of the army of Grand
Duke Nicholas was able to extricate
itself from the enfolding line of Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg coming
from the north is increasingly prob
lematical. 1t is believed that this pres
sure from the north was one of the
chief reasons for compelling the final
abandonment of Warsaw, in order to
permit the grand duke to send REIN
fcrcements to help his right wing.
The Occupation of Warsaw also will
have the effect of releasing large Ger
man forces, long concentrated on the
reduction of the city and permit them
to turn westward for renewed opera
lions against the Anglo-French allies.
The British military authorities agree
that the fall of the city will have far
reaching effects on the eastern and
western wal theatres.

The note reiterates hat Great Bril-
tain will continue to apply the orders
complained of, although not without
every effort to avoid embarrassment
to neutrals. and observes that Ameri-
can statistics show that any loss of
trade with Germany and Austria has
been more than overbalanced by the
increase of other industrial activities
due to the war.
The advent of the submarine, the
airship, and the alleged atrocities by
German troops in Belgium Ire cited
justification for the exercise or ex-
IRENE measures. The blockade is
justified on the ground that the uni
versally recognized fundamental prin-
ciple of a blockade is that a beliger-
ent is entitled to cut of by effective
means the sea borne commerce of his
enemy"
Warsaw Occupied by the Germans.
Warsaw has fallen and the Ger
mans already are in occupation of the
Polish capital. The news first came
by wireless from the German general
Farmy headquarters and 1t was follow
ed by cable confirmation from Berlin
crediting the capture of the city to
the forces commanded by Prince Leo
pold of Bavaria after a stubborn
fight with the Russian guard.
With the Russian admission that
the Russian forces defending the
Blonie front had been withdrawn all
hope that Warsaw could be saved was
abandoned. The outer line of forts
to which the Russians withdrew are
only six miles from the center of the
capital and these defenses apparently
were carried Thursday night, the in
ner line of defense being captured in
time to enable the victors to enter the
city early Friday.

Therefore Engineer Whitehouse
Asks for $500 for Auto
mobile Maintenance

Considerable agitation arose in the
early part Of the meeting Of the; sup
efvisors fast night over a proposed
appropriation of $500 for the city and
county engineers automobile raainte-
nance, the discussion starting when a
communication which had been passed
In by the ways and means committee
was read TO the board :.
The communication stated that $500
had been appropriated in the first Pc
Rod Of six months or the year 1915,
but that for the latter half year no
appropriation had yet been made.
The committee urged that the board
take up the question. s. ~
The committee itself seemed reti-
cent about urging the appropriation,
evidently feeling that the roads com
mittee should take up the question.
The beard as a whole did not favor
this idea, however, and the question
was handed back to the ways and
means committee for further coasid.
GRAFTON. s4
Considerable anfagonistic feeling
exists among The supervisors toward
the alleged way In which Engineer
Whitehouse has been making pnr,
chases and handing In bills for re.
pairs without consulting the pHrchas,
ing agent. or buying things from
firms who have contracts with the
city.
Mr.. Arnold opposed the committee
report last might, and In a fiery
speech said that the incidental ex.
penses which the engineer meets
Rhoilld fall to the various districts
that are being improved. II expenses
are incurred BY an automobile In Ma
noa valley willie the engineer Is at
work there, the expenses should be.
directly charged to that work Mr..
Arnold favored the plan OF prorating
the districts and getting an idea Of
what proportion each should pay.
Mr.. Whitehouse said today that the
system OF having to get a requlsition
slip for every little purchase for his
automobile was not practical. Often.
i have 10 get something at once, 2

to come to the purchasing agent for
