Sinking Of Steamer Bound
From. One Neutral Port
to Another Cussissered
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Oct. 12.-Although the
investigation of the recent submarine
activities has apparently eased the
minds of officials here, it is said au-
thoritatively that should the situa-
tion develop prolonged paralysis Of
American trade, the broad issue
might be raised of transcending spe-
cifc questions of international law in
connection with the submarine raids.
Dislocation of shipping along the
Atlantic seaboard, increases in marine
insurance rates and the possibility of
serious freight congestion are ques-
tons which may largely determine
the governments policy.
The sinking of the Dutch steamer
Bloomersdyk, bound from one neutral
port to another, is being considered.
What measures Germany is con-
templating against neutral trade from
American ports is a matter of specu-
lation.

Washington, Oct. 12.-Identical
memorandum from Great Britain
and France replying to the American
protest against mail seizures were
delivered to the state department to-
day.
The text was not made known, but
the allies are understood to have given
renewed promises that every effort
will be made to minimize the delay
caused by examination, but insist
upon certain legal rights in regard
to mail which the United States has
denied.
The principal American contention
is that vessels have been diverted
from the high seas into British ports
to give the British censors jurisdic-
ton.
There is no indication that the new
memorandum makes any concessions
of principle on this point
