LONDON, Feb, 19-Sir Edward
Gray. the foreign secretary. apnounc-
cd today that.,the British government
had decided that the American steam
or WiIhelmina's food cargo should
be held for prize court
This declaration appears to make
clear Great Britain's purpose to de-
clare all foodstuffs Tor Germany con-
traband as well as to -foreshadow 9TH
er rcprisals. The foreign minister,
after reviewing the German methods
of warefare and denouncing them as
violations of all international usagos,
says:
IF, therefore. his majesty's govern
ment should hereafter feel constrain-
ed to declare foodstuffs absolute con-
traband or to. take other measures for
interfering with German trade by
way of reprisals, they confidently ex-
pect that such action will not be
challenged on the part of neutra'
states by appeals. to laws and usages
OF war whose validity rests on their
forming an integral part of that sys-
tenn OF International doctrine, which.
as a whole, their enemy frankly boasts
the intention to disregard, so long as
such neutral states cannot compel the
German government to abandon
