I miaul Sprague "reported that the
Kroonland waa discharging her cargo
of 1,400 tone of copper and 00 barrels
of lubricating oil. The reason for
this was not given. Htate Depart-rit-nt
officials will await a formal re?
ply from London before making
further representations. Inasmuch
aa copper and oil were placed on the
contraband list after the Kroonland
sailed, the American government
probably will contend that the vessel
has a right 'to deliver her cargo. It
is thought In some quarters, however,
that the Kroonland may have dis
era i rd the copper and oil as a result
of the offer of the British government
to buy It..
