THE PRESS ON THE NOTE.

New York Newspapers Have Diff
fering Views on Document.
New York newspapers present the
following editorial opinions this morn
ing on the British note:
The World.
In plain words. the British memoir
andum in relation to the lawless inter-
ference with our ships and cargoes Is
an impudent persistence in wrongdoing.
Nobody is more conscious of this offence
than the members of the British Minis
try, for in answering us now with
sophistry and falsehood they reverse the
record OF their own Government in like
cases for many years.
The British blockade OF Germany Is
In fact a blockade Of Holland, Of Dem
mark, of Sweden and Of Norway. We
have made no complaint as yet against
the legality OF the so-cailed British
blockade Of Germany. although II Is
known that It Is maintained at long
range, and there Ia not even pretence
that 1t is effective In the Baltic.
We have other injuries in the Old
World that must be redressed. but to
most Americans this one, being in the
family. so TO speak, and reviving
quarrel once settled. as We thought for
all time, may as well be attended to
hrst. We went to war with Great
Britain a century ago for cause no
more grievoys.
II the UnAed States cannot command
respect In Great Britain, what reason
have we to hope for consideration in
Germany?
The Herald.
Efforts to make 1t appear that Ameri-
can shippers. more particularly ship
pers OF cotton, have been seriously ham
pered by delays on the part OF British
prize courts are met in the British
memorandum published to-day by an ar
ray OF testimony that will be generally
accepted as pretty convincing. The
principal representatives of American
cotton interests are quoted as testifying
to the satisfactory nature Of the pres
snt arrangements for the handling OF
cotton cases, ard also that such cases
have been dealt with with the utmost
promptitude.' So far more than S2,-
100000 has been paid for cotton seized.
and incidental attention Is called to the
fhct that this is more than the cargoes
brought in the British market.
And Of course there Is to be no sink
ing Of merchantmen and no murder of
non-combatant passengers and crews by
British warshps. The questionable
honors that go with that method of
"civilized" warfare are left to Germany.
