BRITANNIA GOODS
VALUED AT S45,OOO,OOO
U. S. Asks Release of Importations
Restrained from Shipment at Rot
terdam and Other Neutral Ports.

The State Department has protested
against the delay of Great Britain in
releasing goods of American importers
held at Rotterdam and elsewhere by
the operation OF an ordcr-in-coUncil.
An official of the State Department
said yesterday: Every possible ex-
pedient appears to have been resorted
to by the British government to hamper
the expeditions handling OF releases,
which II promised long ago Great
Britain apparently demands a lot of
obviously unnecessary information. In
fact, she wants the complete history
of every case and. in our judgment, Is
insisting on nonessential details"
Officially revised figures of the value
of goods held up at Rotterdam and
other neutral ports show the total
is about $4,000. 900. This sum is made
up Of cases to the value of So. 900. 900
being handled by the British embassy
at Washington. and $40. 000. 900 reported
in England by American consuls. The
British embassy is endeavoring to
handle 1900 individual cases.

ANGRY WIFE'S WARRANT
SPOILS DINNER PARTY

Toms River. y. J.. Nov. 9.-Domestic
difficulties in the family of Harold G.
Moiler have resulted in the issuance OF
warrants for several persons prominent
in this neighborhood.
Miss Margaret Kennedy. a nurse, was
arrested while at a dinner party at the
Ocean House with Moller and his
mother, wealthy woman of the Kings
bridge section of New York City. Miss
Kennedy was charged with having band
ished n revolver when Moeller's wife. &C
companied by DIR. and Mrs. Frank
Brouwer. appeared at the Brouwer home.
The younger Mrs. Moller. 1t is said.
was on a search which led to the dis
covery in the Moller home of woman's
clothing she did not recognize.
After Miss Kennedy's arrest. Moller
and the hotel proprietor obtained war
rants for the arrest OF Moller's wife and
Dr. Brouwer and his wife. The younger
Mrs. Moller. however. had disappeared.
A search warrant recovered some
goods which she had claimed as her
property appeared at the Brouwer home.
