VATICAN STATEMENT
Csservatore Romano Comments on
Recent Interview with the Pope

Recent Interview with the Pope
The Rome Osservatore Romano,
the official organ of the Vatican, pub
fishes the following statement relat-
i've to the interview attributed to
Pope Benedict by Louis Lattape in
La Liberte, of Paris:-
ITO put our readers and all discern
Ing and impartial men of all nations
on guard against arbitrary interpreta
tion of the mind of the Holy See, we
are unable to let pass without remark
the account of the interview of for
eign journalist with the sovereign
pontiff and commented on in the
newspapers. To cut short these in
terpretations and commentaries, we
recall that there is an essential differ
ence between the official public docu-
ments of the Holy See and private
publications. AS to that which con-
Germs the European conflict, the
thought of the sovereign pontiff is not
doubtful because it has been clearly
expressed at different times in num-
erous pontifcal documents, namely,
the encyclical of November /, 1914;
the Christmas discourse to cardinals;
the consistorial allocution of January
%, 1915, many letters from the pom
tiff to cardinals and prelates, and the
recent letter of May 20 to Cardinal
Vannutelli, the head of the sacred
college.
These official public documents re
feet exactly the ideas of the pope and
holy see who accept all responsible
ty.. The other documents, namely,
private publications and also the one
discussed today-can contain and do
contain, in fact number of inaccurac
les. Several of these inaccuracies are
so evident it is useless to point them
out"

NO HOPE OF AN

Under Conditions In Europe As
They Are At Present
DIPLOMATS WILLING, PEOPLE NOT
In All the Countries the People Have
Been Told They Are Sure to Win
and Now Expect Too Much.

New York, June 2d.-President VIII
son does not see any prospect for an
early peace in Europe. Col E. NJ.
House his close friend and unofficial
envoy TO Europe, gave the president
today the results of his sojourn of
several months in the principal capt
tails of Europe where he talked inti-
mately with the responsible officials
of the German, French and British
governments and the information he
impaired in the long walks and talks
which they enjoyed today reflected
definitely the ideas, held by both dip
lomatists and the military element in
each of the countries at war He al
so disclosed the various beliefs and
currents of public opinion in each
country as to what might be the pos
sible terms OF peace and the trend of
public opinion toward the different
peace proposals that have been
brought forward from time to time in
informal discussions by the press and
peace organizations.
The president has been guided
largely by what Col. House has re-
ported to him by cable and letters in
handling the delicate question of re-
newing the efforts of the United
States to bring about a general ac-
ceptance of mediation. Mr. Wilson
himself said last Tuesday to the
Washington correspondents that no
new tenders of good Offices had been
made to any of the warning powers,
but that all foreign governments well
understood the willingness of the
United States to be of any service in
any way possible to pave the way for
an approach to peace t

Washington, June 24.-Secretary
Lansing made public tonight the text
of the memorandum just received
from the British Government in justi-
Gcation of the manner in which Amer
ican commerce had been treated in
the measures taken by the allied Gov
ernment to restrict trade with Ger
many and Austria. The memoran-
dunn is being published simultaneous
ly in England and the United States
by arrangement between the two
eTnments
While Ambassador Page explains
in his cablegram transmitting the
memorandum that ii is not an answ-
er to the principles set forth in the
American note of March 80. but
merely an explanation Of concrete
cases of detention of cargoes to and
from the United States. the tenor of
the communication is such as to in
spire no hope that the British Govern
ment intends at the present to relax
the vigor with which it has been en-
forcing the restrictive measures
against American trade under the So
called Order in Council blockade.
The memorandum deals only with
the detentions of cargoes to and
from Germany and the United States
in British ports minimizes the gravi-
ty Of these interferences.
There is nothing in the memoran-
dun submitted by the British Govern
ment to indicate that it viii make
any of the following coneessions
First-Permit and facilitate the
shipment to the United States OF
goods bought in Germany after
March l and shipped through a neu-
trail port.
Second-Permit of facilitate the
shipment to the United States of
goods contracted for before March /
and shipped through neutral port

proximately $5O,O00,00O worth of
goods embraced i'll this category,
Third-Permit the shipment now
or hereafter of American cotton to
a neutral port.
Fourth-Permit the shipment of
non-contraband goods from the Unit
ed States to Holland or a neutral
country if such goods are destined
for. or likely to be sent into Germany
Fifth-Recognize the right of the
United States as neutral nation un-
der recognized rules of International
law to ship non-contraband goods to
Holland, or any of the other neutral
nations contiguous to Germany

STEAMER NEcHEs SEIZED
Shippers Say Cargo of American Yes
sci Comes from Belgium

London, June 25-The American
steamer Neches has been seized in
the Downs and ordered to proceed to
London to discharge her general car
so which is to be thrown into prize
court. The contention of the British
government that the cargo came
from a country hostile to Great Brit
ain is denied by the shippers. The
cargo of the Neches was loaded at
Rotterdam and the steamer was on
her way to New York when she was
seized. The shippers maintain that
the cargo is OF Belgian origin.
This is the second time that the
Neches has been held up by the Brit
ish authorities. Several weeks ago
she was detained on voyage from
the United States to Holland with
5000 tons of cotton. The cotton was
released on the promise that the Meth
erlands overseas trust would take
care of it.

Result of Modern Methods of War

San Francisco, June 25-lnjuries of
the brain and of the eyes are more
frequent and cause more deaths in
the present war i'll Europe than was
ever the case in any other war, ac-
cording to DR.. Lloyd Mills of Los
Angeles, who related his experiences
in Austria at yesterdays meeting of
the American medical association.
These injuries are more serious ow
ing to the short range at which most
of the fighting has been carried on
and TO the rotary motion OF the bullet
fired from the German rifle, which re
