No Report to Admiralty.
Denial by British Admiral
That One of His Cruisers
Came Inside Virginia Capes

Sir Cecil Spring Rice. the British am
bassador. informed Acting Secretary Polk
today thaA he had received a message
from the admiral commanding the British
squadron on the Atlantic coast denying
that British warship had entered Ches-
apeake bay. as reported by the COM
mander of the battleship Louisiana.
The ambassador said the British ships
had strict orders not to enter the three
mile limit Of American territorial waters
to waylay the German submarine
Deutschland. or for any other purpose
and the admiral had reported that these
instructions had not been violated at any
time.
Mr.. Polk was told that the British
admiral was very indignant over the
report that one of his cruisers had
made an incursion into Chesapeake
bay under cover Of darkness early yes
terday morning.
The statement of the ambassador
will be accepted by the State Depart
ment, but the commander of the Louis
lana is being pressed by the navy for
further details on his report that a
craft which passed him at Lynnhaven
Inlet signaled English cruiser" Of
f1cials do not know what to make of
the case. but are inclined to believe
that the American officer was the VIC
tim of some kind of hoax.

STEAMER ASKS PROTECTION. .
The Korea Fears Submarines, State
Department Is Advised.

NEW YORK. July 27.-A wireless
message to the State Department at
Washington from the Japanese steam
ship Korea, asking protection from
German submarines. was overheard and
reported today by officers of steam
sbips arriving at this port. The mes
sape. they said. asked protection for
the American officers and engineers
who were on board the Korea to take
her through the Panama canal to San
Francisco, where she will be turned
over to a Japanese crew.
The Korea, an American steamship
formerly belonging to the International
Mercantile Marine Company. was sold
recently to the Togo Kisen Kaisha of
Japan. She sailed from New York Sun
day with the Japanese ensign at her
stern. It is believed that the captain
of the Korea was alarmed by reports
last Sunday that German submarines
were near the coast escorting the un-
dersea trader Bremen.

SENATE NAVAL PROGRAM
IS URGED BY PRESIDENT
Summons Ranking Democrats on
House Committee to the
White House.

President Wilson summoned to the
White House today Representatives
Padgett, Talbot and Estopinal. the
ranking democratic members of the
House naval committee, and told them
he believed it vital that the House
adopt the naval bill as 1t passed the
Senate, with the construction pro-
gram, including four battle cruisers
and four battleships to be built i'm
mediately, and an increase in the en-
listed personnel of the navy.
Thinks Opposition Certain.
While Representative Padgett. chair
man of the committee. would not say
what attitude he would take. it is
understood he told tho President that
there was certain to be determined
opposition to the enlarged building
program.
The naval committee at a meeting
after the White House conference
agreed to report the bill back to the
House with a recommendation that the
House disagree to all the Senate amend
ments and send the bill to conference
for adjustment there. By some this
was taken as favorable step for the
larger program.
