The British consul said that he has received a letter from the British em bassy at Washington, dated May 24 which tenuis to strengthen his belief that the British consulate at New York has 6ent out a call to British subjects in the United States to eu list voluntarily. This letter refers to a recent "Act of Congress permitting voluntary recruit ing within the United States of Brit ish subjects for service with the Brit ish army, conditional upon regulations issued by the United States secretary ui war. me age limit specnied in the letter is 18 to 40. until he receives official confirma tion of the despatch Gordon will not take steps to notify British subjects resident in the territory.
