 ments Arc Restx1cfed.

London, March S1.-A Berlin de. spatch to Reuters by way of Amster- dam emphatically denies reports that Brand Whitlock, American minister to Belgium, has suffered any viola tion of his privileges. The despatch says that MT. Whitlock will be grant, ed every privilege as a neutral dip- lomat until he crosses the frontier and that all obligations in regard to the American representatives on the Belgian Relief commission will be strictly observed.
 The American embassy never had a special American courier, continues the despatch, but always borrowed the services of Dutch courier, 1t is further stated that MT. whitlock was given the same treatment as Count Won Bernstorf, former Ger man ambassador to the United States, with the difference that while Won Bernstorff's telegraphic communica- ton with Berlin was interrupted on tho breach of diplomatic relations, MT. Whitlocl was permitted to receive ~telegrams addressed to him even when in cipher.
 In regard to the sinking of the Bel- gian relief steamer Storstad. the de- spatch says that the investigation has not been concluded but that it has been established that the vessel was torpedoed in the barred zone of the Irish sea, despite warnings received at the Cape Verde Islands.

TAKES OVER BARGE PEERS.
Hamburg-American Line Docks R4
 turned to New York.


 New York, March S1.-R- A. c. Smith, commissioner of docks and ferries, announced last night that he had taken over two unused piers ',f the Hamburg-American Line, one al the foot of West Twenty fifth street, Manhattan, and the other at the foot of Thirty third street, Brooklyn. and had turned them over to the federal government.
 The lease of the piers was ceded back to the city after long negotia- tions between Commissioner Smith and officials of the Hamburg-Ameri- can line.
 The ships which were tied up at the piers until eighteen months ago, are now at a dock at 135th street. and the North river. The dock eommis- sioner endeavored to get back the piers because the crowded condition of the harbor made more loading and discharging space essential.
 The North river pier has been turned over to the Panama Railroad company, which is owned by the United States government, and the Brooklyn pier to the Luckenbach steamship line until such time as the government has need of it. Commis- sioner Smith, although he would not say how much the deal netted the city, admitted under questi oning that it was considerably over $5O,O00.
