BRITISH DETERMINED
CONTINUE STRUGGLE
ON WARS ANNIVERSARY
Throughout the Empire
Resolutions Are Adopted
to Garry Conflict on I'm
til Victory Is Won-Ad-
mits Past Weaknesses.

LONDON, Aug 4.--Humility and recog-
milton Of her weaknesses replaced the
blind confidence and cocksureness of a
year ago, when Great Britain today IN
thousands of patriotic meetings through
out the Empire, observed the first ami
versary OF declaration of war with Ger
many.
Queen Mary and Queen Alexandra ac-
companied the King to st. Pauls.
All business on the London Stock EX-
change was suspended at noon while
members sang the national anthem.
The Empire, without reservation, reaf-
firmed its determination to carry the war
to the botter end. Prepared resolutions
adopted at gatherings in British possess
sions throughout the world pronounced
that policy. But everywhere there was a
striking contrast between the spirit of
the people of today and of one year ago
Throughout todays meetings ran the feel
ing that Britain has made serious errors
in the past, but with it a bulldog deter
minatlon to profit by these mistakes and
to see to it that they are not repeated
in the future.
The London newspapers sounded this
keynote today in their anniversary com
ments. With virtual unanimity they
frankly discussed the Empires grave
danger and declared that only a supreme,
unified, sacrihcial effort could save the
nation from disaster. But the tone of
their editorials on the whole was strongly
hopeful for the future,
A universal anniversary program was
carried out at meetings held in England,
Australia, Canada New Zealand, India,
Ireland, Scotland-Wherever subjects OF
Great Britain were assembled. The pro-
gram was arranged by the central COM
mlttee for national patriotic organiza-
tions, of which Premier Asquith Is pres
ident. At each meeting the following
resolution was presented for adoption:
That on the anniversary of the decla-
ration of a righteous war this meeting
of citizens records its infiexible determi-
nation to continue to a victorious end
the struggle in maintenance of those
ideals of liberty and justice which are
the common and sacred cause Of the
Allies

inally. he was conducting the correspond
ence, that the blockade methods concern
ing which the United states complained
"are not only reasonable and necessary
in themselves but constitute no more than
an adaptation of the old principles OF
blockade to the peculiar circumstances
with which we are confronted"
The crux of the American complaint, ns
Sir Edward said he understood it-cor-
rectly, according to international authori-
ties here-was that the British We're not
only interfering with American shipments
to German ports, but also to the ports OF
neutral countries adjoining Germany
Answering this complaint, Sir Edward
refuses ito admit that a belligerent Vio-
lates any fundamental principle Of in
ternational law by applying blockade
in such a way as to cut off the enemys
commerce with foreign countries through
neutral ports"
The note sustained this view with num-
erous Civil War precedents, which SIR
Edward maintained were in point

''to claim" that his contentious SHOULD

tional tribunal.

steamship Neches was In the nature OF
an appeal TO American good feeling.
The vessel, bound from Rotterdam 10 the
United States, was held up on the ground

"neutrais as well as British merchant
vessels without proper regard or
provision for the safety of passengers
or crews" whereas the British "have
adhered to the rules of visit and search
and TO prize-eourt methods,
While these acts OF the German Gov
ernment continue" said Sir Edward, ut
seems neither reasonable nor just that
His Majesty's Government should be
| pressed TO allow goods from Ger
many to pass freely through waters ef-
feetively patrolled by British ships OF

| Nevertheless, said the Foreign Min
| lister, the British are ready to examine

the interest OF neutrals."

DIFFERENCES RECONCILABLE,
LONDON PRESS DECLARES

Britain's Position.
LONDON, Aug. 4

iAN@HA'B+N1 EAAo' u
That there is nothing In the negotiations
between this country and the United
States relative to American shipping
rights to prejudice the friendship now eX-
listing between the two nations was the
opinion expressed today by the Evening
Standard.
The STANDARD admits that a serious sit
uation has arisen through the rejection
by England OF President Wilson'S protest
against the detention of American ships
and the seizure of American cargoes. At
the same time 1t believes that the text
of the Anglo American notes shows that
the differences are not irreconcilable.
The British press has adopted a cautious
tone in discussing the present relations
between England and the United States
and the refusal OF the British Govern
men to modify its Order in Council.
Most OF the papers refer to the blockade
established by the United States Govern
mont during the Civil War
The Globe declares that the demands
of President Wilson are inconsistent with
tho American practice during the War
of the Rebellion.
eve are certain, on reflection, Ameri-
can statesmen will recognize our position
as fair in contrast with the Germans
brazen violation OF international law"
says the Globe ''They certainly will not
push TO an extremity a position they
know TO be untenable"
The Pan Mall Gazette declares that the
correspondence between the American and
British Governments will illustrate 70
the American public the difference be-
tween British and German methods.
We accepted interference with our
trade during the Civil War as a legal
expansion OF the true position OF the
blockade" says the Pail Mall Gazette
we can fairly claim that our present
policy shall be Judged by Americans with
the same broadmindedness.

COTTON SCARS DESPITE
BRITISH REPLY TOU. 5.
Market Figures Go Up 10
Points-Merchants Optimis-
tic on General Situation.

Cotton sold today at the different eN-
changes 10 points higher than yesterday
despite the apparent unsatisfactory char
acter Of Great Britain's reply to the
blockade protest OF the United States
Liverpool was n heavy buyer on TINS
advance. Cotton merchants of this city
said today that they were not alarmed
over Great Britain's refusal TO modlty
her order. which forbids American Ves-
sells and cargoes 10 travel unmolested to
neutral ports of Europe.
Philadelphia cotton merchants who read
the note said that there was no need OF
becoming alarmed. Prominent exporters
said they felt confident that President
Wilson would be successful in bringing
about n modification of Great Brttains
blockade on American ships.
The cotton market closed yesterday at
965 for January deliveries. When the
contents of the note became public today
it was freely gossiped in the cotton mar
kets that there would be decline in yes
terday's prices. The price, however, went
up to 975. At this price Liverpool was a
heavy buyer.
Cotton brokers said today that should
England refuse to modify her blockade
order, there would be great financial
ment of Great Britain's order, cotton men
said, would result in preventing eXporta-
tions being made TO Germany, Denmark,
Norway and Sweden. These countries
for years, have been liberal purchasers
OF American cotton.
Edward j. Du Nee, of the firm of Du
Mee Son &c Company, of lO5 South Sd
street, said today;
There is no reason for any particular
alarm because Great Britain refused to
modify her blockade order.
"There is a chance that modification
will come about later. The refusal to
modify the order will, of course, result in
expectations to Germany. Denmark and
other countries coming to an end. The
cotton which could have been sold had
England agreed to modify her order will
not go awaste We have now a large
| supply of cotton in this country and 1t
is certain that when the war is over
many of the countries now engaged in
the European conflict will be eager to
purchase II. They will need all the cot
ton they can get hold Of"
Other cotton men who are familiar with
| the cotton industry said that America
will now have a grand commercial op-
portunity in South America. China and
| also to get the cotton trade in the East
Indies. The trade in these countries has
been enjoyed for years by Germany
! Since Germany went to war her exports
to these countries have been practically
at a standstill.

at its command the Times does not be-
lieve. however, that Withdrawals of troops
from the western front have materially

The Times insists that tho main German
