reported: A
It is understood that the $10,000,000 of specie which
made the voyage almost across the Atlantic and back 011
board the Kron Prinzessin Cecillie is to be sent to Ot-
tawa. The Bank of England will make payments 'in
London against this and other gold which will be depos-
ited with the Canadian Minister of Finance.
The eflect of the arrangement will be to provide
means of remittance from North America to London
without the necessity of shipping gold across the Atlan~
tic. The plan is said to be capable of extension to other
places outside the region which now is or may come un-
der control of an enemy. 2;... no i "rugs-fit

the details of the negotiations between England and
Germany regarding the status of their merchant shipping
in ports of the enemy.
A dispatch from: B'erlin received here yesterday said
that the German and British governments had requested
the American embassy in Berlin to intervene for the pur-
pose of fixing the time in which the merchantmcn oi the
two countries must quit the ports of the enemy.
From the matter published by The Gazette. it ap-
pears that Germany on August 4 proposed to the British
government the mutual liberation of interned ships. A
reply to the proposal within 48 hours was' requested.
Apparently no reply was made in the ‘Geritia’n climb

American ambassador, Walter Hines Page, made known
to Germany the decision of this government regarding
the treatment of room’s ships and asking whether this

of the American ambassadors at Berlin and Stockholmt ‘
but no communication was received from Berlin and the
British government has no knowledge of the treatment
being accorded ”to British ships and cargoes in German
