TREATMENT OF BY THE BRITISH FLEET\u2014STATES ANGRY.r\u2014 Washington, Dec.28\u2014The United States government today dispatched & long note to Great Britain, insisting spon an early improvement in the deratment of American commerce by the British fleet.It gave warning that much feeling had been aroused in this country, and that public crit.feism was general ove: ur-arranted inierferance with the legi te foreign trade of tie United States, The document, constituting the strongest representations on this suh- fect made by the United States to any of the belligerents since the outbreak of the war.was cabled to Amdassador Page tn be formaily presented to Sir Edward Grey, the British Foreign Secretary.Its preparation was hegun a month ago by Solicitor Cone Johnson.Counsellor Robert Lansing and Secnctary Bryan and finally during the last two weeks had the personal attention of President Wilson himself, who revised its phras ectagy with mffrôfe care.~~ = \\s the detafled point of view of the United States.in numerous speci- lie cases of detzntions and seizures of cargots, had been set forth ia a series i emphatic protests.most of which have gone unheeded, today's communication wae couched in general terms cavering the eniire subject of tie re~ lations hetween tive United Statés and Great Britain as affected by the latter's naval policy.considered highly ohjectionable by this government, The uote declares at the outset that te representations are made in a iriendly spirit.but that the United States considers it best to speak in terms of frankness.lest silence be construed as an acquiescence in a policy on the part of Great Britain which infringed the rigats of American citizens under tie laws of nations, Since France has adopted practically the same decrees on contraband as has Great Britain, today\u2019s note is| virtually a statement intended for all! the members of the Triple Entente.Feeling has heen aroused on the | subject to such an extent, the come munication adds, thst the American covernment feels compel ed to ask for definite information as to Great Britain's attitude in order that it may | take such measures as will protect | American citizens in their rights.; teference is made «1 tne note to! the high principles of equity which | have actuated Great \u201cDritain in ler chiarapionship in the pact of the freedom of the scas to neutrzi commerec.and the hope is expressed that even thoug! a helligerent herself.she will realize the seriousness to the neutral of continued interference.The position of the United States b 1 i | |

Cuxhaven and the gas works were hit by bombs, but that no damage was done, and consider this improbable.The naval writers dilate and speculate lavishly upon the most remarkable engagement of twentieth century warfare, They conclude that the German ships feared to come forth and give battle to the British cruisers because of the uncertainty as to whether the British battleships were lurking behind them.The fact that the Zeppelins were driven off is taken by some as evidence that the Zeppelins are really untrustworthy craft.Others think it means that the Germans are husbanding all their dirigibles for a grand raid upon England.It is-argued by some of the writers that if Cuxhaven can thus be attacked, why not Heligoland, Wilhelmshaven and even ition of the Germéns snd Austri the Kiel canal.ans is regarded as promising.The, only damage the British expedition suxcrined was the \u201closs of several hydrôplaires.costing 9.000 pounds ($45.000), and the only loss of life was Commander Hewlett.The British people are beginning to lose whatever fear of the Zeppelins they held, perhaps prematurely, but the exploits of the sirmen on the continent and the scouting trip of the German flyer over Kent on Christmas show there is a strong possibility that the Taubes may repeat: over London, the visit with pombs which they paid Paris and Warcew.The authorities issues a warning tonight of the danger to people in the streets from guns which may be used in London against hostile air craft and advised the people to take refuge in basements if they should hear the sound of explosives or guns.A heavy windstorm with rain and snow swept over parts of England and adjacent waters tonight.DROPPED BOMBS GERMANS SAY IT WAS THEIR AIRMEN WHO DID DAMAGE ON GERMAN ISLAND.\u201cDiscussions of
