 "The difference between the British and the German procedure is We nave acted in the way which caused the least discomfort to enutrals. Instead nf sinking neutral ships engaged in the trade with the enemy, as the Ger mans have done in so many cases, in direct contravention of their own prize regulations,- we examine them. giving as little inconvenience as mod ern naval conditions will allow, send ing them into port only where this be comes necessary"
 The note adds that a further reason for bringing ships into barbor is the necessity for close examination of all suspected persons, which has been made necessary by the German prac- ticc Js -,susing United States pass ports to procure a safe conduct for military persons and agents

LAST BRITISH NOTE
 UPON RESTRAINT OF
 NEUTRAL TRADE HAD
Allies Contend That They Are Endeavoring To Conduct Their Warfare So As To Minimize Hardships
(By Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, April 25.-The last British note, in answer to the Ameri- can protest against allied interferences with neutral trade, made public to- night at the state department, con tends that the practices complained of are ''judicially sound and valid" and that the relief which neutrals seek is rather to be obtained by the mitiga- tion of necessary hardship than by abrupt change either in the theory or application of policy based upon sd- mitted principles of international Inv. adjusted to the alternate conditions of modern warfare"
 It discloses that "an impartial and influential Commission" has been ap- pointed to find ways to minimize de lays and pledges the allies to make their restraints on trade as little bur densome,t to neutrals as possible
 The note in which the French gov ernment hconcurs, reiterates the mili- tary rieeessity of regulating commerce to netftfals,u condemns Germany and justifies { the effectiveness of the blockade which was challenged by the last American note.
 The unkrniity of sentiment among the worlds neutrals for the protection of neutrals' trade is contained in the British note, which says:
 Ills. Majesty's government have Ioted with sincere satisfaction the in- timatson contained in the concluding eassaatss of the United States note, of the intention, of the United States To undertake the task of championing the fnteAity of neutral country.
 ] The first act of this was. the unpro- yoked invasion by the enemy of Deu- tral territory-that of Belgium-which he was solemnly pledged by treaty so project The diregard of neutral fight9fas since been extended to na- val Haffare warfare by the wanton destruction of neutral merchant mer- fhant ships on the high seas regard less of the lives of those. on. board. His majesty's eovernmeit would -%el- home any combination of neutral na- lions under the lead of the United States which would maintain. an eff fectixe championship of neutral righfs
 "It would seer1." says the note, ito be a fair reply to such contention that new devices for dispatchins goods to the enemy must be met by methods of applying the fundamental and acknowledged principles of the right to intercept such trade
 At some length the note argues thc impossibility of making searches at sea, for various reasons among which are the size of modern steamships, and the manner in which contraband mas been concealed.

WAR SUMMARY
(ey Review Leased Wire)

A revolutionary outbreak in Ireland in which British troops and volunteers sustained relatively heavy casualties, and a raid by German battle cruiser squadron on the east coast of Eng land, in which the raiders escaped af- ter having bombarded Lowestoft and hit two British cruisers and a destroy CT are the outstanding features of the war.
 The British government says that the situation in Dublin now is well in hand
 The German battle cruiser squadron made its attack on Lowestoft opening fire on the coast and killing two men, one woman and a child. British light cruisers, torpedo boat destroyers and aircraft chased the Germans who re- treated hastily. Two British cruisers and a destroyer were hit by German shells, but none was sunk. Whether the Germans suffered any damage is not known.
 Except in Lorraine there has been an entire absence of infantry fighting on the western front The big guns have continued their rain of shells on opposing positions at various points.
 At La Chapelotte, in Lorraine, the Germans launched a heavy infantry attack against the French which was repulsed. Some of the Germans Ob- tained footing in a portion of the French salient but later were driven out with heavy loss.
 Around Hill 304 and in the region of Esnes and Cumierres, northwest of Verdun, the bombardment continues intense. To the east of Verdun around Milanville there has been violent bombardment Considerable aerial activity by the French air men, in which four German machines were brought down. is reported by Paris.
 On the eastern front near Garbuno- vka the Russians made a heavy at tack against the Germans but. accord ing to the Berlin report. were repuls- ed. Heavy artillery engagements are still in progress in the upper Corde- vole and Monte San Michaleson of the Austro-Italian front.
 The German bombardment of Dun kirk was resumed this morning, six bombs being dropped. A woman was killed and three men wounded. An other contingent of Russian troops ar rived at Marseilles this morning. Eight British, aeroplanes bombardsd and destroyed hostile camp at Qua tia, Egypt, near the SueZ CanGi, it was announced officially in London today.

If they have any definite plan to recommend after their talk, it will be submitted promptly both to Washington and Mexico City for consideration.

MUTTON HIGHER AT TER PEACE
 COMES

SALT LAKE. Sept II. - Prices of mutton, now high, because of the Flu ropean war, will go still higher even after peace comes. F. j. Haeenbarth. president of the National Wool Grow CTS Association, declared in his anuu- al address delivered here at the fifty third annual convention of the asso- citation. The next census, he said. would show d shortage of thirty per cent in the flocks of the nation X two years drouth in Australia. and the inroads of agriculture in South America and New Zealand, MT. Hagen barth said, would prevent relief from those sources, while American compe- tition was not pressing at present The worlds wool supply is used up, with over production impossible for many years to come"
 Classification of the public domain, intelligent breeding. and a sane tariff for wool protection were recommend ed. The forest service and the depart ment of agriculture were lauded for opening summer pasture grounds - policy credited by the speaker to that distinguished and far seeing patriot. Theodore Roosevelt Congresses past and present came in for warm repri- mand for playing politics with the wool tariff refusing to break up the unclassified public domain. and for stingy appropriations or none at all to aid in improving the breeds of sheep. A request by the association and it's friends for a congressional ap- propriation of $30.0oo for a govern mental breeding station, brought the magnificent sum of $S.5Oo. the speak CT said and committees sent to Wash ington labored earnestly and in vain, along many lines.
 Just how much it costs Co raise sheep was set forth, in terms shatter- ing a somewhat popular belief that it costs next to nothing. The cost involved in providing proper land hold ings (for lambing purposes), and for winter feeding. after we have included interest on the investment. and have made a proper allowance for deprecia- ton and loss will range from five dol lars per head per breeding eve per year"

COPPER LODE |S LOCATED NEAR
 SEWARD

Using a rope and ladder to mount the glacier, Charles Emsweiler and Frank Skeen located a lode of copper ore on the old Likes property at Por- cupine bay for which searches have been made ever since there has been a seward.
 The strike may put Resurrection may on the map as copper producer, for should investigation show the values discovered to continue 1t will rank with Ellamar and Latouche.
 The lode is high grade copper. run ming from 31 to 35 per cent, and at the point reached by means of scaling the ice cliff was 30 feet in width.
 Float ore running B per cent cop per was found on the moraine at the bottom of the glacier, and once S. E. Likes, the discoverer, found a lead of high grade ore quite ways up the glacier, After several years residence at Porcupine bay in which he searched the mountain each summer, Likes dis posed of his holdings to Sam Silver man for $2,50O Strange to relate, the next three years the snowfall was so heavy that at no time during the summer was Silverman able to reach the lead, so he abandoned the prop erty. It has been staked several times since but no one could find the lead from which the highgrade float came, and it has been a sort Of lost lode copper mine ever since The general understanding has been that the lode was under the glacier
 This spring Skeen and Emsweiler staked the claim by way of experiment and have examined it from time to time.
 On a recent visit they noted Likes original monument about 60 feet above the present level of the glacier, show ing how much the ice had melted in the past few years. This gave them a hunch to examine the rim, hence the rope ladder About 5000 feet up the ice from a point where the iron capping was shown by the rust they found the long looked for lode.

R|CH FIND GOLD QUARTZ ORE
 TEIKHELL

Some fine specimens of gold quartz were brought to Valdez by Nick Nee kem from his recent find near lei kel The specimens are almost pure gold, with just enough white quartz to set off the yellow metal to adyan- tage.
 MT. Meckem states that the new find is but fifty to sixty feet from the mouth Of the tunnel on the claims he has been working for the past two years. So far as known this new dis covery has been covered by snow for many years. This year. Mir. Meckem says, the snow has melted back farther than he ever saw it, and prompted by curiosity he went over to look at the ground thus uncovered Finding traces Of quartz he dug away some of the overburden and the sight which met his eyes when he got down to the solid rock was electrifying The bright yellow metal stood forth big as house to Nick's eyes, and he straightaway proceeded to gather in a few specimens.
 So plentifully is the gold distributed through the rock that 1t Is not stretch ing it any to place the values at s2o0.- 900 to s25O.OO per ton, and Mir. Nee kem believes he can take out a nice little sum by banning the eroded rock lying along the vein, anl when he re turns to the property within a day or two will take with him the necessary pan to perform this work.
 It is not known how extensive this ore body is, as but little work has been done. When he returns he will strip the lead as far as possible to de tsrmins the extent of the pay chute.

would erect four line cannery at Cordova. To this end the driving of piles for dock was begun late in February, 1916.
 MT Hawkinson, with a crew of able assistants, arrived in Cordoya during the last days of February. and al. though there was some delay in re ceiying lumber for buildings-whicb did not arrive until the first week in March -- and in spite of a great deal Of indictment weather, the buildings were erected, machinery installed and everything was ready for the canning Of salmon before the first day of May. The run of red salmon started some what later than usual and the first fish were caught on May 12, and were canned and shipped on May 13. The pack to date aggregates approximately l2O,00O cases, and Is reported to be the largest pack Of any single cannery In Alaska. It is anticipated that the amount of the seasons pack will az. gregate 13O,OOO cases before the can nery closes down.
 When canning operations of the Car. lisle Packing Company were started in May of this year, the management promised complimentary dinner when the pack reached fifty thousand cases. When this amount was put up the cannery was handling 30,OOO to 50,90G fish per day. and no time could be spared for jollification, and before an opportunity presented itself the pack had aggregated more than a hun. dred thousand cases. The cannery is still packing nearly 1.000 cases of salmon daily, but part of day off was taken on Saturday last. and the Century Dinner" was given to the em ployees and score Of Cordoya busi ness men also invited to share the hospitality.
