SPECIAL PROTEST ON
INSPECTION OF MAILS

Washington, D. c., May 15.-Nego-
tiations with Great Britain regarding
interference with mails to and from
the United States and interruption of
neutral commerce by the British fleet
are to be resumed in the very near
future. A note insisting sharply on
modification in the treatment of mails
is being prepared at the State De-
partment.
Secretary Lansing let it be known
last week that the implied conditions
in Gepman note on submarine war
fare, expressing confidence that the
United 9t1tS WouId hold Great Brit
ain to- p)iance with international
law, hadsMSa AZ difficult to proceed
with the british negotiations. He
said tclay, however. that these nego-
tiationS would be continued promptly

lnsistant Demand.
The note now being prepared reits
crates the original protests Of the
United States against the detention
and interference with American mails.
1t is understood that the new demands
will be more decided in language
than the first.
A phase OF interference with mails
which will be made the subject OF
special protest is the custom of taking
neutral Ships into British ports for
inspection and then removing the
mails and sometimes subjecting them
to long delay.

Saratoga Springs, N. Y, May ID
Two vigorous contests in the confer
ence Of the Methodist Episcopal
church were forecast tonight, when
the committee on Episcopacy had vot-
ed to make supplemental report to
make an increase in the number Of
new bishops to be elected, and the
committee on the state of the church
had decided against striking from the
requirement of church membership,
the prohibition from theatres, cards,

it was predicted by all leaders, would
meet with much opposition.
