U. S. NOTE STUDIED CLOSELY Communication Accepted as Friendly Action Intended to Clear Up Situa tion That Might Become Serious Points In Protest Against Britain. London, Jan. 2, Cutting short his vacation as a result of tho American protest against British interference with United States commerco, Sir Edward Grey, foreign secretary, re turned unexpectedly to London on Wednesday and hastened to his ofuco lu Downing street There he conferred at length with Viscount Haldanowho had been act ing as head of tho foreign offico, and later consulted with Premier Asqulth. As a result of tho second conferenco the entire cabinet was summoned to discuss tho protest from the United States. It is understood that the American ambassador will bo invited by Sir Edward to discuss tho whole question with him very soon. Officials of tho British foreign of fice aro closely studying the Amerlcnn noto of protest against tho treatment given to American commerce during tho war, nnd tho indications aro that a reply will be mado ns soon as nos- slblo. Members of tho diplomatic corps scout tho Idea expressed in somo quarters that tho matter will lead to friction between tho United Stntes and England. Tho foreign office has accepted tho protest as a friendly action Intended to clear up a situation that might have become serious had it been allowed to continue without a clear understand ing. Even tho statement of Presi dent Wilson that compensation will bo asked because of the damage done to American commerco has failed to roil tho British press, which is usually quick to take offense. Washington, Jan. 2. Tho general points of tho protest sent to Great Britain by tho United States govern ment aro as follows: 1. American cargoes havo been searched on tho high seas a belliger ent right that is not denied but the ships also havo been diverted to ports for further examination, a circum stance hold not justified under inter national law unless full proof of hos tllo destination is presented at the time. 2. Great Britain has regarded abso lute and conditional contraband ns in tbo samo class, Tho general under standing in international law has been that absolute contraband includes thoso articles which are intended for use by a belligerent forco and directly destined to it. Conditional contra band, Including foodstuffs, comprises tho articles which nro susceptible of use by an army or navy, but it must be proven that, instead of being Intended for tho civil population of a country, these products are destined for use by Its army and navy. 3. Irrespective of the controversy over what constitutes aboluto or condi tional contraband in tho commerco be tween n neutral and a belligerent country, the noto sets forth that In re spect to commerce between two neu tral countries mere ougnt to bo no question of contraband at all, for the relations aro those of peace and not of war. Since tho Civil war the United Stntes has upheld tho doctrine of "con tinuous voyage," which pormltted Boizure of a cargo oven in Its Journey between neutral porta, provided even tually it was destined for a belllgorent. The Ariiorlcan noto, however, takeB the position that proof of such hostile destination must be shown at tima of seizure. 4. Tho American government con tends that a consignment sent to no spuclflc consignee, known as a "to or dor" 'shlpmont, is not of Itself suspi cious.
