THE COTTON TROUBLE.
GREAT BRITAIN'S POSITION
LONDON, July 25. The "Times" correspondent at Washington says that news has been published stating that Britain is -con-' sidoring the question of compensating cotton producers on the line's suggested by the "Times,?'. and there is reason to believe that the news ia correct. It is of the greatest importance that • a decision should be reached as soon as possible. The decision should include, the correspondent adds, making cotton contraband and compensating producers for loss, under an Order-in-Council. As things stand it is certain that a strong protest, will be made against the illegality of the British blockade and the interference of trade between neutrals. Prompt action can mitigate and;perhaps dbviato any danger.
