STOP SCRATCHING, YOUR SKIN doubt for E. L. M. OINTMENT CURE ALL DOES s 25 cents a box At Druggists 0o rights are ‘waived -in the interval. Germany already has given assurances that pending arbitration American ships carrying conditional’ contraband will not be molested, but since virteal- ly every: commodity of importance has been made absolute _contraband, the value of the assurances i6_regarded by officials as comparatively ‘small. The American government holds that the treaty of 1828 does not permit. thé de. struction under any circumstances of American veasels carrying contra®and of any character, and in its mote in- sists that while ‘the arbitration pro- more security in lifeboats be given 9 passengers and’/crews on American vessels which the German commanders may deem it necessary to destroy for carriage of absolute contraband. “Without admitting that the Decla- ration of London is in force,” says the note, and “on the understanding that the requirement of Article 50 of the Declaration. ‘that ‘before the vessel is destroyed all persons on board must be placed In safety,’ is not satisfled by merely giving them an opportunity to escape in lifeboats, the government of the United States is willing, pending the arbitral award in this case, to ac- cept the Declaration of London as the rule governing the conduct of the Ger- man government in relation to the treatment of American vessels carry- ing cargoes of absolute contraband.” In_the Frye, case, the commander of the Prinb Eitel Frederich took all on board his own vessel. When the Lee- lanaw, an American ship carrying ab- solute " contraband, was destroyed, the crew was taken aboard the submarine and transferred later to small boats when near shore. No compiaint ha: bheen made, therefore as to past trea ment, but an effort is being made to safeguard the American lives in the ture. DENIES CONFISCATION OF MINES IN MEXICO Gov.
