ENGLAND'S NOTE

AFFIRMS STAND ON SHIPMENTS

New Note Shows Great Brit

ain's Decision to Back Up Declarations Made in Former Notes.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.Great Brit

ain takes sharp issue with the American position that she is illegally interfering with the commerce of the United States. She has sent to the stato department three notes along similar lines. In them she defends the Lon

don order in council. The note re

ceived today which it had been sup

posed modified the note of last week

and took the "teeth out' of the order in council," does no such thing.

It was learned on the highest au

thority that the foreign office justifies

every act of its naval commanders in detaining American vessels and diverting them into British ports so their cargoes could be passed on by the British prize courts, despite the fact that they are consigned to importers in neutral countries. -

The British foreign office reviews

the trade retford compiled by the de

partment of cemmerce in Washington. From them, it is pointed out that the

bulk of exports for Holland, Denmark,

Sweden and Norway have been intended to reach German sources and the British blockade against Germany is

defended as a proper act of war and

one that is justified by the precedent

established by the United States government itself during the Civil war. In f ddition she questioned the propriety of our caveat intended to protect our

rights in prize court proceedings.

Secretary of State Lansing statea

the text of these notes will be made public next Wednesday morning. He

sa d that this time has been nxea ny

the British government. In this connection the secretary stated that he could not answer any questions about

the notes because the British govern

ment bad asked that the state department withhold comment until Wednesday.

Because of the position that England

has assumed it is certain that a definite and strong protest will be sent for

ward reaffirming the position or tno

United States that the order in coun

cil is in defiance of international law and a violation of England's obligation

to the United States.

PLAIN QUESTIONS TO

RICHMOND PEOPLE

very Richmond Reader Will Admit the Soundness of the Logic. Would Richmond people recommend

loan's Kidney Fills as they do if the

medicine were not reliable? Would

hey confirm their statements after

ears have elapsed if their experiences

'id not show the remedy to be deserv-

ng of it? Statements like the follow-

ng must carry conviction to the mind

f every reader: Mrs. Henry Brokamp, 62 Sherman

Bt., Richmond, says: "We have used

loan's Kidney Fills with fine results.

am glad to confirm our former pub

ic endorsement of them. This remedy

has been used for backache and other

ytriptoms of kidney complaint and

has never failed to give relief in a

hort time." Mrs. Brokamp is only one of many

Richmond people who have gratefully

ndorsed Doan s Kidney fills. If your

ack aches if your kidneys bother

ou, don't simply ask for a kidney

emedy ask distinctly for Doan's Kid-

ey Pills, the same that Mrs. Brokamp ad the remedy backed by home tes-

imony. 60c all stores. Foster-Mil-

FRANCE SHOWS WISDOM IfJ ENDORSING MONROE DOCTRINE AS TO HflIT

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2 France has reaffirmed her acceptance of the Monroe doctrine. That was the interpretation officially placed today on her action in landing a guard of marines for the French legation at Port Au Prince only after asking and receiving permission so to do from the United States government. The result may be far reaching. Diplomats today pointed out that the action of the French republic means that the supreme police power of the United States on this hemisphere has once more been endorsed by France. And in doing so, she has taken a po

sition of strategic strength, not only to secure proper redress for the outrages against her national honor by the Haitians, but also to demand that the United States see that French interests are protected in all forthcoming developments in Mexico. This latter may prove a serious problem to the Wilson administration when the time comes for it to enforce its new views and policies south of the Rio Grande. Although Rear Admiral Caperton has reported that so far conditions in Haiti are quiet the aavy department is ready to rush further reinforcements to him if needed.

CANDIDATES KEEP EYE

MAYORALTY

0

If you take it straight from Mayor Robbins the question of whether he will be a candidate for re-election is one which he has never given the slightest consideration. And Charles A. Marlatt Democratic member of the Robbins board of public works, is Just as diffident about his reported candidacy for the Democratic mayoralty nomination. Alfred Bavis. president of the board, only smiles when asked if he intends to be a candidate for mayor on an independent ticket. There are two well known citizens,

BEE"

however, who frankly admit a hankering after the job of mayor. Henry Farwig, Democratic mayoralty candidate two years ago, has announced that he will seek the nomination again In two years. The other announced candidate is Dr. W. Zimmerman, who desires to make the race under the Republican standard. The Zimmerman candidacy will occasion no surprise. What would a mayoralty race be without Dr. Zimmerman as one of the entries? "It has been reported that I am a candidate for re-election," Mayor Robbins said today. "You can say that I

have given this matter absolutely no consideration," , "Say for me that I have not considered seeking the Democratic mayoralty nomination, Mr. Marlatt said today, "It's a long time until the mayoralty election.". Mr. Bavis has announced that he intends some time in the near future to propose a plan whereby city officials can be elected on a non-partisan basis. It is said this plan provides for a general primary nominating election, all candidates for city offices, irrespective of their political affiliations, having their names printed upon one ballot which "will bear no party emblem. The two -candidates for each office who receive the highest number of votes at the primary election would then be submitted to the choice of the people at the fall election. Mr. Bavis, it is said, believes this is the only way to remove city affairs from politics.

MANY VISIT PARK TO HEAR CONCERTS

The largest crowd of the season attended the regular Sunday afternoon band concert at Glen Miller perk yesterday. Thousands of Richmond people and many people from the country and small towns within a radius of twenty five miles, flocked to the park for shelter from the hot sun. Each Sunday a larger number of out -of-town people are noticed at the concerts showing that many little towns near Richmond are appreciating "the opportunity given them to hear a band concert eacn week.

FALLS ON STREET

A horse owned by William Sleeth, while hitched to a buggy and standing in front of a residence on Pearl street, near Fourth street, Sunday evening, became frightened and bolted west, turning south on Third street. When it reached the corner of Kinsey street it fell and slid clear across Kinsey street on its head, inflicting a number of injuries. The rig was not badly damaged.
