Washington, June 25.-After a con-
ference tomorrow between Secretary
of State Lansing and representatives
of the great importing firms of New
York and other cities, plan will be
formulated to test the sincerity of
Great Britain's protestations that she
has no disposition unnecessarily to
injure American commerce.
The plan is to station general
agent of the importers in England,
who will get and present in advance
of all sailings duplicate bills Of lad
ing, certified to and 'unobjectionabe
in every respect, so as to leave no
shadow of excuse for prize court pro-
ceedings against vessels from neutral
ports to the United States or vice
versa.
This proposition will be a complete
counter to the intention of Great
Britain, as stated by Lord Crewe,
hereafter to send vessels Immediately
to prize courts and abandon diploma
cy as means of settlement.
Protest Orders in Council.
At the same time, protest is to be
made against the operations of the
British orders in council and the al
legged blockade which prevents, illeg-
ally, the expectation of about $4,000
900 worth of goods, practically own
ed now by American importers III

regards Rotterdam and other neutral

Panama, June 25.-Brig.- Gen. Clar-
ence r. Edwards, in command of the
American troops in the canal zone, is
conducting spirited compaign
against the use of drugs by the SOL
diers under his command and has
asked the aid of the Panamanian
government to aid him in abating the
evil. Minister of Foreign Affairs Lee
fevre will ask President Porras to
issue decree. forbidding the sale of
habit-forming drugs. The. American
troops on the isthmus have become
drug habitues. to an alarming extent
and the ease with which drugs are Sc
cured has added to the habit. Sew

rested and convicted, and a number
of peddlers and soldiers who were
drug users have also been sentenced.
General Edwards is determined to
stamp out the evil.

enemies are willing to concede her
right to develop her economic and
cultural powers.
To this statement DR.. Karl Lieb-

interjected:
we have the masses with us ana
the masses want peace.
After this interruption, Herr Wiener
continued:
"We are convinced that the cooper
alton of all parties and classes IS es-
sential and that it means German VIC
tory. In this cooperation is founo
the guarantee that we will hold out
and that we will be spared from sucn
Gastarl,y attacks in the future.
Herr Braun, Socialist, was the next
speaker. He said the Socialists d'o
not deny that the German people must
stand together against their innumer.
able enemies. He referred to the fac'
that certain persons are talking aDou'

has been started among the church So
