ENGLAND YIELDS TO DEMAND OF
 AMERICA

LONDON, May ,. - The British gov ernment has decided to release thirty eight Germans and Austrians taken from the American steamship China off Shanghai by British cruiser The release of the prisoners is the result of strong pressure brought to bear by the American government which disputes the right of any na- tion to take persons from American vessels on the high seas.
 While the government has ordered the release of the prisoners in this particular case, it is understood that it has receded in no way from the right it claims to arrest any Germans or Ausrians wherever they may be found.
