LONDON INQUIRIES About
british ship OFF COAST
pv The united Presa.


WASHINGTON, July 27.-The Brit
ish embassy today cabled the home
government for information concern
ing the mysterious British cruiser"
which passed the United States bat
tlesAip Louisiana en- route up Lynn
haven bay, Tuesday night. Whether
the inquiry was inspired by the State
Department cannot be learned. Mean
while the navy is considering the the
ory that the cruiser might have been
seeking q wireless message from a
low-powered station near the German
submarine freighter Deutschland.
The navy exercises a censorship
over the high-power stations at Bal
timore. but It is impossible to con-
troll the hundreds Of small amateur
stations and those on harbor craft.
Il is considered possible that a YES
sci lying near the Deutschland, equip
ped with a low power wireless has
attempted to communicate with the
British cruisers of the Capes.
But to reach them she would have
to have a set Of instruments power
full enough to attract the attention OF
the naval censors. Therefore, ac-
cording TO the theory, one OF the
cIocl1ading cruisers is obliged to sir
up the bay ten or fifteen miles 10 gel
within range.
A trip for such a purpose would
probably be considered a violation OF
American neutrality, as the British
cruiser would be using this country
as a base. It was said at the Brit.
ish embassy today that British wal
vessels had general orders not tc
enter the three-mile limit or even tc
hover Just across the line.
The British admiral commanding
/ the cruiser squadron off the Atlantic
\ coast Indignantly denies that q Brit
ish warship entered Chesapeake bay
