IN SHIP
NOTE CONTROVERSY

Washington, Jan. 6.-The American
shipping protest may become a double
edged knife and be aimed at Germany
as we'll as Great Britain.
Coal shipments, it is declared, may
become the subject of complaint to
Germany.
On excellent authority it was stated
that involved in the shipping discus
sion with Great Britain is the ques-
ton of Germany having secured coal.
oil and other contraband from the
United States in alleged violation OF
the neutrality law.
Coal shipments have fallen into Ger
man hands upon clearance papers be-
lieved misleading. These have been
the basis of complaint by Great Brit
ain.
American registry of the Hamburg
American ship Decia under the emer.
gency registry act may be the basis
Of a test.
1t Is thought possible that the Decia
will he sent with cotton to Germany
and a test case raised to determine
how far the allies will go in prevent
ing sale Of German and Austrian
ships interned in the United States to
Americans.

London, Jan. 2.-The destruction of
the British battleship Formidable in
the English channel by a mine or a
submarine boat, although one Of these
events Englishmen now realize must
be expected so long as the British
navy is compelled to keep the seas,
has caused widespread grief.
This is due, not so much to the loss
Of the ship, which was fifteen years
old and cost about $4,000, 900, as it is
for the men--600 in number-who are
believed to have gone down with her.
Thus far only $50 lei Of the For.
midable's crew Of $50 are known to
have been rescued. A light cruiser
picked up eighty and a Torbay trawler
seventy.
The British admiralty has not an.
nounced the locality where the disas
ter occurred and declares it is unable
to say whether the ship struck a mine
or was t%orpedoed, but the inclination
here is to believe that a submarine
again has been successful in an at
tack.
