While It Is presumed here, from pub lished account of the chase of the Vln tnnd, that the llrltlsh were technically within their rights, there Is some re sentment manifested ln official nuatters at the extent to which the Mrltlsh hail carried the exercise of their right to In tercept all vessels on the seas. At the request of the I tilled State the Hrltlsh OOVOmmonl has rep.-at.-dly ordered It cruller to remain a consid erable distance heyond the thren mile limit of United Hlates territorial waters, and thl Government expect them to refrain from carrying on their operation close to the American coast. It Is possible therefore that If the case Is officially brought to the attention of the State Dapartfnant a reminder may bo sent to the British ' loverni ient that It is not agreeable to this Government to have Hritish cruiser crowding upon our coat and harrying Amerlcrin vessel making coaatwlse voyage.
