Much consideration has been given
by the conferences TO the newly de-

frankly admitted by the naval officers
that the old form OF blockade by war
ships close 10 an enemy coast passed
with the investment OF Santiago in the

IN the message OF inquiry TO Great
Britain and France asking for an ex-
PLANTATION of their recent declaration
OF an embargo, the United States con-
ceded that the activity OF the subma-

lhis principle OF a radius OF action"

ading fleet was the object Of much
discussion at the international naval
conference at London I'm 1903 and the
declaration, which followed contained
the following rule:
The stizure OF neutral vessels for
violation OF blockade may be made
only within the radius OF action OF tine
ships OF war assigned 10 maintain an

An explanation OF this was given at
the conference, which. a recent pub-
Hcauon OF the United States naval

saily accepted as interpreting the
rule.
Where Violation Comes.
The Declaration OF London and all
previous eXposiuons OF international
