8T. PETERSBURG, July . The Russ
today publishes an editorial statement of
Russia's position relative to the stopping
of neutral ships In the Red sea by vessels
of the volunteer fleet. There is great Interest-
In the statament because It is be
lieved to reflect directly the views of the
foreign office. It follows:
The operations of the converted cruisers
Smolensk and Bt. Petersburg ars causing
tremendous excitement in England. Ques
tions are being asked in Plymouth, tne
newspapers are appealing to the public and
there its intiur among Ihiopwrviir. Vlhej
also is tf"obd deal- of taik in Germany
-because -f-t he selswe -of themalls on the
steamer Prlns Helnrlch, the most noise there
being made by 'extremist organs, the others
treating the matter coolly. It Is a pity thty
do not display the same Teutonic calmness.
It is easy to understand that the British
merchant' Wkrihe feels these restriction
severely. - As a result ot the stopping and
searching of yessels, English ships either
must give up transporting contraband or
continue at their own risk and peril in
time of war between two powers.
Others are bound to. suffer more or less,
as It Is impossible ' fo check contraband
trafflo' without search. ' '
In regard to the detention of the Prlns
Helnrlch's malls, details , have not yet
reached St. Petersburg. ' Comprehensive
discussion-of-the Incident Is. therefore, Im
possible, but it must be- pointed out that
the official correspondence oi a belligerent
Is contraband.
- Claims' Molls May be Inspected,
, Consequently, If the- Prlns Helnrlch car

-The EngiiBii. in then c.w-.o . ..t
raised the question as to whether we were
justified In converting the volunteer fleet
steamers Into warships after they had
passed the Da inelles under the commer
cial flag. Thik .s strange. Every govern
ment has a right either to build warehlpi
either in Its own yards, order them abroad,
buy them already built, and finally to con
vert merchant vessels Into warships. The
volunteer fleet ' at Its very Inception was
Intended to be converted Into a. military
fleet upon the declaration of war.
The English should not feel incensed over
the passage of the St. Petersburg end
Smolensk through the Dardanelles. The
British embassy st Constantinople hands in
a protect to Turkey very time a volunteer
fleet vessel passes lie straits. For many
years these protests nave neen entirely dis
regarded, and therefore long ago lost their
importance. Before the war the Darda
nelles were repeatedly passed by volun
teer ships on ths way to the far east, even
with troops, srms and munitions aboard.
If this were possible before tha war it Is
fiosslble now, as there haa been no change
n our relations with Turkey as a result
of the war.
When the St. Petersburg and Pmolens't
passed through the straits under the mer
chnnt flag their destination was correctly
given aa- being the far east. The tact
Is that the vessels, upon entering the
Red sea armed hoisted the military flng
A fundamental principle of International
law that a neutral M covers neutral roods
will not, on the contrary, bo violated by our
cruisers. Subsequently cargoes aboard the
ships of neutral powers containing no con
traband of war will remain free as ever.
Formal Protest Is Made.
Sir Charles Harding, the British ambas
sador to Russia this afternoon In behalf
of his government presented a strong pro
test to Russia against tho seizure in the
Red sea and detention or the peninsular
and oriental steamer Malacca, which was
carrying 300 tons of British government
stores for the nsval establishment at Hong
Kongy each ease of which was marked
with the Broad Arrow, which Is th gov
ernment stamp. The ambassador also pre
sented a general protest against the action
of the-Russlsn volunteer fleet steamer In
th Red sea.
- The protest was In the form of a verbal j
nots made In conformity with te'egraphlo
Instructions from the Uritlsh government.
It, does not raise the question of the pas
sage of the Dardanelles of vesssls -of the
volunteer fleet,- It being understood that
Great Britain ia reluctant to -reopen the
question of the Dardanel'ea and that It
will net do ao unless aa a laat resort.
Russia has reason to believe and con
tends, that the Malaeca, in addition to
British government stores, had on board
munitions Intended for Japan.
Rassla Heady for Eusload,
Russia seems prepared for any repre
sentations Great Britain may make on the
subject of stopping ships In the Red sea.
It Is Understood that before tending th
cruisers there the Russian authorities be
came satisfied through an elaborate system
Of eaptonsge that an Immense amount ot
contraband was going from England
through the Red sea to Japan and they
decided to stop the traffic. It Is understood
that If this traffic Is now diverted to the
cape rout the Russian admiralty la i re
pared to send ships to the Cape of Good
Hope. If Great Britain object to th
