The following are the salient points in
President Wilson's note to Great Britain
on the subject of the seizure and deten-
ton of American cargocs by British war
ships
The President directs Ambassador Page
to assure Sir Edward Grey that the note
is sent Gin the, most friendly spirit and in
the belief that frankness will better serve
the continuance of cordial relations be-
tween the two countries than silence
(which may be construed into acqueseence
in a course of conduct which this govern.
ment cannot but consider to be an in
fiingement upon the rights of American
citizens" $685.
This government confidently awaited
denied to neutral commerce the freedom
to which it was entitled BY the law Of
nations. 1t is therefore matter
OF deep regret that though nearly FIVE
months have passed since the war began
the British government have not mate
trially changed their policy. s."
!" This government is reluctant
lily forced to the conclusion that the pres
emit policy of his majestys government
toward neutral ships and cargoes exceeds
the manifest necessity of a belhgerent and
constitutes restrictions upon the rights of
American citizens on the high seas. which
are not justified by the rules of interna
tional law or required under the principle
of self-preservation"

TO ENGLAND ON SHIP SEIZURES

shipped from the United States and CON.
sgned to. neutral countries have been
seized and detained on the ground that
the countries to which they were destined
have not prohibited the expectation OF
such articles. : In word leRiti-
mate trade is being greatly impaired
through uncertainty as to the treatment
which it may expect at the hands Of the
British authorities.
g" This government cannot witli-
out protest permit American ships or
American eargoes to be taken into British
ports and there detained for the purpose
OF searching generally for evidence Of con-
traband or upon presumptions created by
at variance with international law and
practice.
Not only is the situation a critical one
to the commercial interests of the United
States. but many of the great industries
OF this country are suffering because THEN
products are denied the long established
markets in European countries, which
though neutral, are contiguous to the ma
| tons at war.
The government of the United State.
expresses confidently the hope that hi
majesty's government win in their treat
ment of neutral ships and eargoes conform
maritime relations between belligerent
and neutrals which have received the sane
ton of the civilized world and which
/ Great Britain has in other wars so strong

THREE ESCAPE FROM

Arthur Daley, Charged With Shooting

Friendship merchant, to-day James Ryan
of New York, who: had nearly completed
"a four months sentence for larceny, and
Edward Bishop. held for the grand jury
on a charge ofslarceny, also escaped at
the same time. = In the same. manner they
slipped the bolts which fastened doors in
{ the tiers of cells they occupied and
[climbed through, windows after saving
out two bars unnoticed. Daley was quick
ly caught when he escaped before, but no
/ trace of him or the other two had been
found several hours after their escape.
The. disappearance of the power, boat

tby broken engine Officers of the reye
inue cutter Woodbury., which happened to
