NOW WAITING OUTSIDE PORT WASHINGTON, Nov 10.—The American steamer Zeelandia was forcibly searched by a party from a British cruiser last week while lying |in the port of Progreso, Mexico. The American consul there reports the crulser now is lying outside, pre- sumably waiting to seize the ship. On the face of such a report da the consul sent, even though incomplete, the officjal conclusion here is that the Brit- ish naval authorities not only violated Mexican neutrality, but far exceeded thelr rights in forcibly searching an American ship In a neutral port. Movements of Zdelandia, The Zeelandia figured mu f late in reports of the invest'gations of British agents on the trall of ships supposed to be fitting out in the United States for attack on ofl-carrying ships from Mex- fean fields, where the British navy draws a great proportion of its supply of fuel oll. On October 7 the Zeelandia, formerly sacola, Fla., at night for Tampico, Mex- jco, carrying a large stock of provisions and manned principally by Germans. An American flag painted on its hull had been painted over and it was reported that while at sea it flew the German colors, although this was flatly denled by its owners. The ship moved from Tampico to Cam- peche, where British agents located it and reported that it bore a large quan- tity of rosin, for which there was no ostensible use in Mex.co, although it is used largely for making shiapnel. They also reported their suspicions that it bore & large quantity of copper and the British view was that the ship was walting for an opportunity to slip out with the cargo for some port where it would find its way to Great Britain's enemies.

Nothing further of its movements was reported it had been forcibly searched reported until today when the American consul reported it had been forcibly searched in port by a party from the Brit- ish cruiser which had been lying outside. What the searchers found the consul dia not report, but inasmuch as he re- ported the crulser still lying in walt it which they beiteved would justify fur- sea.
