Special Efforts Have Been Expended on Behalf of the American Ship pers Note Says. Vashington Great Britain, in a memorandum transmitted to the Unit ed States and made public here and in London, secites at length its ef forts to minimize inconvenience to neutral commerce resulting from the order-in-councll against trade wjtfc. Germany. Austria and Turkey, and asserts that American citizens ' have no just grounds for complaint on ac count of the treatment accorded their cargoes. No attempt s mad to answer the principles - asserted in the American not of March 1 protesting against the order-in-councll and insisting upon the right of neutrals to carrp on le gitimate commerce with each othei and to trade in non-contraband with civilians in belligerent countries. In transmitting the memorandum Am bassador Page said it was "merely an explanation of concrete cases and the regulations under which they are dealt with." Another note to Great Britain k now in course of preparation at tht State Department and is expected tc be dispatched as soon as the negotia taxis with Germany over submarine, warfare have been cleared up. While this communication probably will make reference to the "latest memo randum, it is understood that the manner of enforcing the order-ln-council will not be treated as rele vant fo the question at issue wheth er there is any warrant In interna tional law for the powers that Great Britain and her Allies have assumed to exercise over the commerce of the world. In its memorandum the Foreign Office emphasizes the "various special concessions made in favor of the Unit ed States citizens" in setting forth that all British officials have acted In every case "with the utmost dis patch consistent with the object in view and of showing in every case such consideration for neutrals as might be compatible with the object, namely, to prevent vessels from car rying goods for, or coming from the enemy's territory." According to a summary of ships detained there are now 27 vessels whieh cleared from the United States now held in ports of the United King dom. Of these eight are said "to be unloading cbtton which Great Britain has agreed to purchase, seven will be allowed to depart as soon as items of their cargo placed in a prize court have been discharged, and the other 12 three of them American ships are the subject of investigations not yet completed. NO PEACE IN SIGHT. President Wilson and Colonel House Discuss Situation. New York. President Wilson does not see any prospect for an early peace in Europe. Col. E. M. House, his unofficial en voy to Europe . gave the President the result of his sojourn of several months in European Capitals where he talked Intimately with the responsible offi cials of the German, British and French Governments, and the infor mation he imparted in the long walks and talks which they enjoyed reflected definitely the ideas held by both dip lomatists and the ciritary element in each of tha countries at war. Colonel House also disclosed the currents of public opinion -in each country as to peace terms. " Seldom, Iri Fact. 1" You never can tell.

MEXICAN FAMINeJIsERIOUS. Conditions In City of Mexico Are Grow ing Wors&j , Washington. Anxietjj increased ir official quarters over tie 'situation in Mexico City as the State Department has been unable to cora'nmnicate witl that city by telegraph' for several days Brief dispatches from Vera Cm? said Carranza officials! were much chagrined at the apparent failure 01 General Pablo Gonzales to enter th Capital. Reports that fGonzales wa engaged in an artillery duel with tV Zapata forces gave theilrs't intima tion that the Villa-Zapata forces ir Mexico City had determined ' to offe resistance to the invading Carranza army instead of evacuating. Gonzalei himself, it is indicated,-cut communl cation between Vera Cruz and Mexicc City to isolate the Zapata forces. This prevents the State Department from communicating with the Brazil ian Minister and deprives all othei foreign Governments cMnformation concerning their diplomatic missions and subjects. Ifr - ' Famine conditions ihV.Mexico City have been growing worse daily While it is generally. understood that there will be no further develop ment in the Mexican situation so far as the United States is concerned un til the return of President Wilson from Cornish, it is thought in official quarters that the situation in the Southern Capital may Jforce a new crisis. - A:u .r Overlooked In Proverb.

Washington. Gen. Felipe Angeles, righthand man of Gen. Francisco ViUa, came to Washington to. deny intima dons that he was involved in the act ivities of Victoriano Huerta and his associates and at the: same time to learn the sentiment of officials to ward the Mexican problem. The general issued a statement say ing he was opposed to Huerta and all that he represented: in Mexico poll tics and that after a brief stay here would go to Sonora on a private mis sion for General Villa, returning afterwards to the battle front to re main with his chief. Department of -Justice officials had no additional details concerning the charges and evidence on which Gen erals Huerta and Orozco wer? arrest ed at El Paso. -. They expressed the opinion, however, that the arrests al ready had a wholesome effect in pre venting the launching of a new Mexi can revolutionary movement. General Angeles wishes to talk with President Wilson. He was not direct ed by Villa to do so, he said, but is anxious to learn just what Mexican policy thSj United States intends tc pursue, s General Angeles agrees with President Wilson's recent statement that ; the various elements must come to an understanding. He told' friends fchat he and General Villa, would sup jpgrt , for the provisional presidency any capable man - who represents the! principles and Ideals for wbiaih Ithe revolution has been fought. Major General Scott, Chief of Staff of the United States Army, .was the only official on whom General Angeles called. Enrique C Llorente, Villa's Washington representative, acted as interpreter. Angeles brought a letter of introduction from General Villa to General Scott. The contents of the letter were not disclosed but it was understood to have showed clearly that Generals Villa and Angeles arjfe not at odds. s ASQU1TH URGES ECONOMY.

FRYE NOT SUBJECT ' E AMERICAN GOVERNMENT OB. JECTS TO PRIZE COURT SET TLEMENT OF CASE. GERMANY DENIES CLAIMS Contention of Kaiser's Government That it Has Right to Destroy Con traband and Ships. Washington. By agreement with the German Foreign Office the State Department made public the text of the note sent on June 24 by the Unit' ed States asking Germany to recon. sider her refusal to settle by direct displomatic negotiations instead of by prize court proceedings, the claim presented on behalf of the captain and owners of the American ship William P. Frye, sunk with her cargo of wheat by the commerce raider Prinz Eitel Friedrich. Ambassador Garard babied that he had delivered the note The American government declares rthat inasmuch as Germany has admitted liability for the sinking of the Frye under the treaty of 1828, ; prize court proceedings are unneces sary and not binding upon the United States. As to the question of how Indemnity ' should be pid, the note brings out clearly the refusal of the United States to accept the contention that Germany has a right to stop the car rying of contraband by American ships "by the destruction of the con traband and the ship carrying it." While.no mention jf submarine war fare was made in either the last Ger man note or the present reply, oc casion was taken to deny this right because of a; belief that admission of it '-now -might 'in the future be used as a justification- for submarine ""ittt tacks on meTiean shlav ZAPATA HOLDS MEXICO CITY.
