Put Ban On Freight
Shipments From
West Of Chicago.

Chicago, Dec. 8.-Embargo orders
which practically bar the whole west
ern part OF the United, States from
shipment of commodities for export
from Atlantic ports or for eastern
consumption went into effect on the
Pennsylvania lines and the Erie rail-
road east OF Chicago, late today.
The orders bar virtually every COM
modify, the usual exception being
made, however, for perishable freight
in transit and for United States gov
ernment shipments, H. 5, Snyder,
general freight agent of the Erie, ex-
planned that the order of his road
even applies to live stock TO the ex-
tent that we no longer accept live
stock from connecting lines
No limit is set on the duration Of
the embargo, which is attributed to
the congestion of loaded freight cars
in the big yards on the Atlantic sea
board. Railroad Officials here point
ed out that spectators apd jobbers
for warning European nations have
been piling up cars i'll the eastern
yards for many months,
Notice of the embargo was served
on the connecting lines by the two
roads some time ago. The Pennsyl-
vania order forbids agents to accept
freight from connecting lines which
is destined for points east of Pitts
burgh. The Erie order fixes Marion,
O., as the fartherest east point Of
destination.

PROTEST TO BERLIN

WAS SENT ONE MONTH AGO

Washington, Dec S.-A note to
Germany, protesting against the de-

"On November 29, Mr.. Grew, our
charge at Berlin, was directed to OBJ

"'The government of the United
States has learned with the greatest
concern and regret OF the policy OF
the German government to deport
from Belgium a portion of the civilian
population for the purpose Of forcing
them to labor in Germany, and is
constrained to protest in friendly
spirit, but most solemnly against this
action, which is in conuavention OF
all precedents and of those humane
principles of international practice
which long have been accepted and
followed by civilized nations in their
treatment OF non-combatants.
Furthermore, the government OF
the United States is convinced that
the effect of this policy, ii pursued,
will in all probability be fatal to the
Belgian relief work, also humanely
planned and so successfully carried
out, a result which would be gener-
ally deplored and which, it is as
sumed, would seriously embarrass the

switched to the docks went smash
about the first time it was tried.
Of course, it is not hopelesscH
broken, and has already been repaired,
but things looked bad when it broke
and nearly fell on the headsNof lot
of workmen. The only thing that
saved it from being utterly smashed
and from smashing the heads Of some
OF the workmen was that it fell on
a box car, where it, hung.
Then when it was patched up and
again started, the motor broke, but the
work of repairing is about completed,
and soon grain is to be unloaded in
bulk at the river front. \The boat is
here now with load of grain in
sacks which will have to be unloaded

NEW NOTE Is PROBABLE
Official Information Says the
Marina Was in No Sense
Transport.
ASKS ABOUT THE ARABIA

Washington, Dec. S-A new note to
Germany on the general submarine
situation appears to be among the
possibilities which may come out of
the latest activities. of the underseas
boats. ,...
II decided upon, such note would
be for the purpose of cleSing up what
appears to be differences of interpre-,
tation in Washington and Berlin as to
what Germany's pledges in the Sussex
case covered especially as to armed
ships.
Secretary Lansing said today no
final course of action had been agreed
upon by President Wilson and him.
Although the State department has
been going on the principle Of decid-
ing each case separately on its merits,
it was said today the number of cases
had reached such proportions that
some general action would be justi-
fed, although it was made clear that
nothing had been determined upon.
Marina Not Transport.
The days developments in the sit
uation were: ~
The United States asked Great
Britain for information to determine
the status of the Peninsular and
Oriental liner, Arabia, which Ger
man submarine commander took for
an armed transport.
Official information coming to the
State department established the Mar
ina, torpedced with loss Of six Amer
leans, was in no sense transport
and was entitled to the immunities Of
peaceful merchantmen. In both
cases Germany has expressed will
ingness to offer amends il its pledges
were broken.
1t was reiterated again today that
the United States stands squarely on
the position it took in the Sussex case.
This, combined with Germany's statc-'
ment that it, too, holds the pledges II
gave in that case, leads officials to de-
clare there seems to be some differ
cnces in interpretation, NJ
Purpose Of New Note.
A new note, if it should be decided
to send one, would be to, clsar this
up and make plain beyond question
that the United States expects all mer-
chant ships under international law
shall not be destroyed without warn
ing or without having crews and pas
sengers removed to place OF safety.
Affidavits on the sinking without
warning of the Italian liner Palermo,
on which State department records
show there were twenty-three Ameri-
cans, are being collected as rapidly as
possible. As yet there, are no indica-
tions that any American lives were
lost, but from information at hand the
case seems to parallel closely the Ara
bia and the Marina.
England Asked Status Of Arabia.
Great Britain has been asked by
the State department about the status
of the Peninsular and Oriental liner
Arabia, sunk by a German submarine
without warning. Germany in note
yesterday cites circumstances which
it says justified the submarine COM
mander in taking the Arabia for an
armed transport.
The State departments information
to date is that the ship was pas
senger carrying liner, not subject to
attack without warning.
