British casualties up to August 21, as given officially on September IA. were 381,983. This shows a total between that time and Oct. of Ill., 311, or a daily average of 2,271. Losses between June g and August 21 averaged about 1.50O daily. The marked increase in the fall over the summer losses may be accounted for primarily by the heavy fighting on the western front at the time of the ment last month.

Greece, Italy, and the countries Of

reason for the heavy demand Is that
Australia has a poor crop this year

LONDON CHRONICLE DOUBTS
IF It IS ENOUGH INTERFERENCE

London, Jan. 10.-ln its editorial
comment on Great Britain's reply to
the United States governments note
concerning delays to American COM
merce through the searching of YES
sells by the British feet, the Daily
Mail expresses confidence that the
American peop'e will ungrudgingly
recognize many merits in Sir Ed
ward Grey's communication.
1T is prompt, candid, pertinent and
conciliatory," says the Daily Mail,
"and while it does not profess to be
exhaustive, it brings most of the Am
erican assertions and complaints to
the tombstone OF fact. In tone and
spirit It conforms to that ideal friend
" frankness which the United States
government suggested as the right
note" vi ="
There Is little doubt, says the Daily
Mail, that the bulk of copper snip
ments to neutral countries since the
war began were destined for Ger
MANY and there is still less doubt
that copper shipments not genuiheiy
destined for neutral countries should
| be stopped.
Indeed" the Daily Mail says IN
/ conclusion, when taken In commune
,io,, with the concessions he Is aole
IN announce. Sir Edwards reply WILL
we believe, satisfy the American ma
ton that there is very little LETT ioi
two business like nations to DINER
about"
Quoting the figures given by sir
Edward Grey of American exports 10
neutral countries which have Ger
| man destination" the Daily Chroni
Gle says that confronted by them
"a citizen OF a country like ours
which, by gigantic efforts has retain
ed command OF the sea, Is bound to
ask himself not whether our navy has
interfered too much with this trade
but whether II is interfering enough
And everybody in the United States
who wants us to have fair play ant
is not overweighed by German sym
pathies or by desire to make profits
at our expense, may reasonably be in
vited to put to himself the sam,
question"
The reply says the Chronicle
breathes the same friendly and pIF'
tical spirit which characterized tn,
American document. Tire editorif
ends by saying:
"We believe that the America,
! government and people will apprec
ate the cordially and genuine goo
feeling peryading the British not
throughout, just as the presence o
the same qualities in the American
note was warmly appreciated by oul
selves"

ENGLISH NOTE
FAILS TO GIVE
SAT|SFA ACTION
Great Britain Does Not Square
Practice of Fleet With Ut
terances of Foreign Office is
Claim Made at Washington

Washington, Jan. 11.-Great Brit.
aims preliminary reply to the Amer
,ican note Of protest concerning neu
trail commerce, while gratifying in
the concessions 1t makes has in many
respects failed to satisfy the United
States government.
Officials confidently hope that the
second and complete answer from
England will give the specific infor-
nation requested by the United
States and clear up the uncertainties
which according to the Washington
government, surrounds the commerce
of neutrals.
This disposition On the part of the
Washington administration was re.
vealed in high official quarters to.
day, although there was no formal
comment. When Sir Cecil Spring
Rice, the British ambassador, called
on Secretary Bryan to inform him
that the British supplementary rote
would not be forthcoming for sever.
al days the secretary told him that
the American government would
make no comment in the interim but
would patiently await the coming OF
the note.
General disappointment was evi
dent in many quarters for while the
note conceded that the principles ex.
pressed by the United States were
correct. the statistics which 1t cited
| were regarded as an adroit to evade
the issue.
| Y The general complaint of the Uni
| ted States is that Great Britain
while promising redress and while
conceding the principles of interna
tional law, does not square, the prac
tice of its foreign office. The United
States, 1t is pointed out, has endeav
ored without result ever since tn,
beginning OF the war to obtain infor
nation from Great Britain as to tn,
reasons for detention and has aske,
vainly for information as to the gen
eral rules governing the activity o
the British fleet in connection will
neutral commerce.
Information Withheld
The American government know
that scores of ships have been dc
, tanned only through shipping CON
panies and exporters. Requests TO
J information at London have usual
: been met with the statement tina
ships were released, and efforts I
obtain explanations OF each case hav
been without success. This was sta
r ed authoritatively today, though ther
4 was qualification over the promise /
e the last part OF the note that Grea
: Britain now was prepared, wheneve
cargo coming from the Unite
/ States is detained, to explain the cas-
! on which such detention has take
place"
The American government Is sti
awaiting information as to how co
per and other important exports CO
/ signed TO definite consignees in ne
trail countries are to be treated
t Is the general uncertainty as to whit
the British feet may do which
fundamentally complained of, b
t cause exporters claim they can e
neither ships nor insurance for the
" cargoes because of the hazards al
risks involved.

successes of several weeks past, mill
tary operations are almost at stand

In the West, in Belgium and France,

Berlin, via London. May 19.-The
American note to Germany has not yet
been officially given out. The after
noon papers, however, print the YER
sion of the document as telegraphed
here by the Havas agency. With the
single exception of the Lokal Anzeiger,
all refrain from comment The Lokal
Anzeiger says:
THE German government certainly
will not delay long with the answer
required, and probably reply that in
occupying itself with its sacred duties
it is not to be disturbed from any side.
THAT the American government
should consider the Lusitania as
harmless packet boat, without taking
notice of the fact that it was really
an auxiliary cruiser, and an ammuni-
tion steamer for the British navy, ap-
pears to us scarcely belieTable. But
the German answer to Washington
will make it comprehensive to Mr..
President in language as polite as it
will be clear, that we must conduct the
war as we are conducting it, and can
conduct 1t with clear conscience"

GERMAN NOTE TO BE DELAYED
Reply to U. S. Communication Likely
to be Held Up Because Of
Italian Crisis.

Washington, May 1.-Two impor-
tant factors, it has become known,
are working to delay for another week
Germany's reply to the American note
OF May 10, sent as a consequence of
the Lusitania disaster.
First, the next few days are expect
ed to decide whether Germany will be
confronted with new military situa-
ton by the entrance of Italy into the
war and the cutting off of all supplies
through the Mediterranean.
Second, interested diplomatists here
believe the interim of delay will re-
veal whether the United States, of it's
own initiative, will send a general
protest to the Allies with respect to
their alleged violations of information
al law by interfering with commerce
between American ports and neutral
countries of Europe.
