CARGO SEIZURE PROTEST SHARP.
United States Sends Vigorous Note to
Great Britain.

Washington. Nov. 2.-Couched II
more emphatic language than any vet
employed is the American note to be
presented to Great Britain this week
protesting against violations of Amer
lean maritime rights and demanding
that further interference with our
trade cease.
The United States declares:
l. That its sovereign rights have
been invaded by the limitation. risks
and liabilities imposed by Great Brit
ain upon the ships Of neutral powers.
;. That the procedure observed by
Great Britain under the, various or
ders in council is illegal.
5. That the British blockade, as
described in the orders in the council
and applied Hereunder. Is not binding
because it is not effective.
4. That the blockade is ineffective
in that it discriminates between the
trade Of neutral nations.
5. That the effect Of British opera
lions is to blockade neutral countries,
which. of course. is in violation OF In
ternational law.
s. That British practice subjects
neutral ships proceeding to Neutral
ports to the same suspicion OF guilt
which attaches to neutral ships bound
for ports of enemies Of Great Brit
ain.
I. That British practice results in
the seizure of innocent goods exported
by Germans thru neutral territory to
neutral states and exported by neutral
states thru neutral territory to Ger
many.
5. That British practice in inter-
fering with trade between neutral
countries is not only illegal but un-
fairly conducted.
g. That British practice imposes the
burden of proof of innocence upon
neutral shippers. whereas the burden
of proof of guilt should rest upon the
captor.
10. That the method observed by
British cruisers in taking neutral ships
into port for visit and search works
hardship upon the neutral owners and
shippers and is not in accordance with
the requirements Of international law.
H. That the contraband list as ex-
banded from time to time by Great
Britain is arbitrary and in violation Of
recognized practice.
IL. That British Interpretation and
application of the doctrine OF continp-
Gus voyage is not in accordance with
the Interpretation and application of
the doctrine of the north during the
Civil war.

However, there are a number Of Pc
culiar factors in the general situation.
The banks in the cities are overloaded
with deposits, their interest rates are

On the other hand, the banks in the
country do not have abnormal deposits,
and they are loaned about to capacity

Chicago, Nov. 2-Wheat-Continued
liberal receipts have resulted in no let
up in cash demand and shorts have re-
ceived help from hedging sales. Com
mission houses were free buyers of
wheat today and local shorts were
obliged to buy on a rising market. The
result OF an advance of cents in the
December delivery and ! 4 cents in the
May. The weather prospect is entirely
favorable and this, with the probable
ity of a larger movement Of winter
wheat, should result in some setback in
values.
Corn-Local sentiment in corn is d.
vided and, today. the bulls had the bet
ter of the argument. There was con-
siderable short covering on an early
bulge, but the reaction that followed
was only temporary and closing prices
were near the top. December was
stronger than the May largely because
crop reports by local experts were
given a bullish construction. Chicar-
continues to be the highest cash market
and is now on a shipping basis over
Kansas City for most grades. Local
receipts and country offerings are
small. but eastern demand is CORES
pondingly light.
oats-There was little change In the
oats situation, prices ranging slightly
higher and closing at a gain Of I. cent.
Export demand is we'll sustained and
there are some indications of improve
ment in the domestic situation. Sample
values, however. were unchanged.
While receipts are liberal. stocks are
not accommodating to any great extent.
Professionalism scattered buying and
support from the larger packers pro-
visions closed at fair gains. Yester-
days monthly statement of contract
product at Chicago and outside pack
ing points showed heavy reduction for
the month of October. The supply of
hogs was more liberal but prices were
steady.

Cattle.
Cattle were relatively scarce.
Official notice of the reopening OF

owners of big steers time TO get them

erous of the feeders who possess choice
10 prime heavy cattle the New York
situa ton was not the chief factor they
report. In Illinois several big strings
of prime steers are being held in the
expectancy for much higher prices for
prime steers developing in the next
thirty TO forty days. There is belief
among the owners of prime ones that
as the Christmas season approaches
and it Is seen that the crop OF choice
beeves will be far below normal, big
price boom will be on. Toe, the opin-
ion exists that after the range runs are
in for the season a narrowing OF the

HERMAN RIDER DEAD.
New York Publisher and Politician
Suddenly SucoumbS

Suddenly Sueoumbs.
New York, Nov. Herman Ridder
treasurer Of the democratic national
committee and publisher OF the New
Yorker Stats Zeitung, died suddenly
late yesterday afternoon at his home
in this city.
Among large number OF prominent
German American citizens OF the
United States, Herman Ridder was
one OF the most conspicuous figures in
the newspaper publishing business and
in politics. His associates in the pub
fishing business had honored him at
one time with the presidency OF the
American Newspaper Publishers As
ISOLATION. and for many years he held
high offices in the Associated Press as
treasurer and director.
In politics he was such factor that
he was talked OF at the Democratic
national convention In Denver in 1908
as a possible nominee for vice presi-
dent on the ticket with Bryan, whom.
however. Mr.. Ridder opposed at that
time. He also was discussed later as
likely selection for Ambassador to
Germany.
Following the nomination Of Bryan
at the 1908 convention. after former
Governor Charles n. Haskell. of Okla
homa had resigned as treasurer Of the
national democratic committee, Mr..
Ridder was chosen as treasurer. and
in his own name and those Of his
brothers. he contributed $4,000. the
largest single contribution to the
Bryan campaign.
Mr.. Ridder was owner and editor Of
the New York Stats Zeitung, one of
the foremost German newspapers in
the United States, and thru this he
was particularly conspicuous recently
in his ardent defense OF the German
position in the European war.
