Washington, Dec. 29.-The United
States government dispatched long
note TO Great Britain, insisting on an
early Improvement in the treatment of
American commerce by the British
fleet. It gave warning that much feel
ing had been aroused in this country
and that public criticism WAS general
over unwarranted interference with
the legitimate foreign trade of the
United States.
The document. constituting the
strongest representation on this sub
iect made by the United States to any
OF the belligerents since the outbreak
of the war, was cabled TO Ambassador
Page, to be formally presented TO Sir
Edward Grey, British foreign secre-
tary, Its preparation was begun a
month ago by Solicitor Cone Johnson,
Counsellor Robert Lansing and Secre-
tary Bryan, and finally had the per-
sonal attention of President Wilson,
who revised its phraseology with mi
mute care.
AS the detailed point OF view OF the
United States in numerous specific
cases of detentions and seizures OF car
goes had been set forth in series OF
emphatic protests, most OF which have
gone unheeded. Mondays communica-
ton was couched in general terms
covering the entire subject of the re-
lations between the United States and
Great Britain as affected by the lat
ter's naval policy considered highly OBJ
jectionable by this government.
Since France has adopted practi.
cally the same DEGREES on contraband
as has Great Britain. the note is vir-
tually a statement intended for all the
members OF the triple entente,
The note declares at the outset that
the representations are made in a
friendly spirit, but that the United
states considers it best to speak in
terms of frankness. lest silence be
construed as an acquiescense in a pol
icy which intringed the rights OF
American citizens under the laws of
nations

does not remedy the evil. as the chief
difficulty is the moral effect OF Brit

who are restrained by II from taking
risks or hazards. which In no case
ought TO surround legitimate trade be-
tween the United States and other
neutral countries.

iect TO such an extent. the communIca.

of Soldiers From Colorado Arranged
at Washington Conference.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, Dec. 24.-Arrangements
for beginning the withdrawal of fed.
eral troops from the Colorado strike
districts within the next ten days were
made at conference between Presi-
dent Wilson, Governor Ammons, Gov

with Secretary Garrison.
Governor Ammons told the Presi-
dent that If the plan of withdrawing
the troops from one district at a time
were carried out. he would be able to
control the situation with local Off
cials. He said he could use the mill
tia If necessary, but desired to avoid
further expense to the state. He de-
clared there was every prospect OF
peace IL the local authorities were
given an opportunity to gain control of
the situation gradually. He told the
President he would leave for Colorado
Thursday and was willing that the
first troops be withdrawn as soon as
he arrived.
Governor Ammons advised that Seth
Low and the other members of the
Presidents Colorado Strike Commits
sion be not sent into the state for the
present and said that the investigation
carried out by the Federal Industrial
Relations Commission had postponed
the settlement of the strike at least
two weeks. He estimated that all the
troops can be gotten out within ten
days after the first movement is be-
gun.

Naco, Ariz.-Governor Jose Maria
Maytorena of Sorona lifted the siege
of Naco, Sonora, opposite here. and re
tired to the southwest with his troops
He destroyed his works, burned his
camps and removed all his artillery
During the night his troops on the
west and south of Naco left their posi-
tions and. at daybreak, they concen
trated four miles to the southwest
where they boarded train which has
been there since the siege was begun
nearly three months ago. Gen. Benja
min Hill, commanding the Carranza
garrison Of Naco, sent out skirmishers
who had bloodless encounter with
the Maytorena rear guard.
The removal of MaytoreAa's be
sieging army fulfills an announcement,
made by Maytorena after his confer
ence with Gen. Hugh J.. Scott, chief
of staff Of the United States army, who
came here in an effort to stop per
manently fighting at border points
where bullets endangered American
lives and property.
Hills men took three women pris
oners and picked up a shrapnel shell
left in the Maytorena camp. 1t was
brought into the garrison, and ex.
ploded while being examined, killing
three and wounding thirteen, two OF
whom died later.
In one spot Hill said his men found
100 bodies, at another, rs. The total
loss OF the Carranza garrison during
the siege was placed at 1856 by Gen.
Hill. Maytorena's total loss was fig.
ured at 500.
On the American side stray bullets
from the Mexican fighting lines killed

thousand flew over the boundary into
American territory during the siege.
which began Oct. 10, 1914.
