From Admiral in Command,
Makes Definite Denial.

Washington, July 27.---Sir Cecil
Spring Rice. British ambassador. de-
MED to the State Department today
that a British warship had entered
Chesapeake Bay. as reported to the
Navy Department by the comman-
dant OF the Norfolk navy yard, The
AMBASSADOR based his denial upon in
formation received via Canada from
the British cruiser squadron OFF the
Virginia Capes
The State Department is disposed
to accept the British ambassador
denial.
Ambassador Spring Rice said the
vessel could not have been a British
warship because the British warships
had been ordered not to enter Ameri-
can territorial waters He assured
this government that the instructions
OF the admiral in command had not
been violated. The British govern
ment, 1t was pointed out today, knows
that the Chesapeake is an INLAND
water of the United States"
Secretary Daniels today gave out
the following statement defining the
territorial limit:
The three mile limit at the mouth
OF the Chesapeake is a line parallel
to and TO the seward of line con-
meeting Cape Henry lighthouse. ex-
tending until 1t intercepts lines paral-
lei TO the coast on each side OF the
entrance to the bay at distance of
three miles from mean low water,
The Navy Department ordered the
cruiser North Carolina and three tor
pedo boat destroyers to proceed to
points from which they could prevent

Norfolk. Va, July 27.--Along the
Atlantic coast today from Cape Henry
to Hatteras American torpedo GOAT
destroyers kept constant patrol to see
that English warships waiting for the
German submarine Deutschland to
come out into the Atlantic did not so
inside the three mile limit in search
of their prey. The American cruiser
North Carolina. with several aero
planes on board took up a position
about ten miles off the Virginia capes,
while two miles further out two Brit
ish curisers loitered,
One aeroplane left the North Caro-
lima, circied near the foreign warships
and then went several miles out TO
sea, and returned TO the North Caro-
lima. These aerial manouvers Will be
continued while the North Carolina
maintains a neutrality patrol.
The aeroplanes viii be used to as
certain the number of foreign war
ships off shore and locate their posi-
ton. Ten of the English ships are
reported along the coast from Hat
teras to the Delaware breakw water.
Five American warships are watch
ing them. They are the cruiser North
Carolina and the destroyers Flusser.

A report that the submarine Bre-
