EXCLUDED AMERICANS
TOLEAVE ON MONDAY
Great Britain's Reasons for Barring
Them from Country Are Not
Made Public.

WASHINGTON, July 90. - Ameri-
can Ambassador Page at London today
cabled the state department that Great
Britain insisted upon excluding from
England and ireland Thomas Hughes
Kelly Of New York, treasurer of the
Irish relief fund, his assistant, Joseph
Smith, and Mrs. Kelley. They will
leave England Monday on the American
liner Philadelphia. Ambassador Page
has been Informed by the foreign office
that the decision to exclude the three
Americans was irrevocable. No reason
for exclusion was given by Ambassador
Page, who said that during their de
tention at Liverpool the British authori-
ties had permitted them to remain at a
hotel without being actually imprisoned.
Despite the apparently final decision
the state department officials today still
hoped the exclusion order might be
modified.
Additional representations in behalf
Of the Americans were sent yesterday
by the state department and also by the
British embassy.
