, LOSING PRESTIGE. THE ITCH FOR DOLLARS!. A STRONG INDICTMENT. Received Jan. 9, 5.5 p.m. London, Jan. 8. The London correspondent of the Chicago Daily News, who is the doyen of American journalists in England, makes a strong attack on the American policy. He says that since the war American prestige abroad has sank to the lowest depths it has ever reached, and Americans abroad arc uncomfortable and apologetic. The picture of President Wilson, when screened in the music halls of London, provokes hissing and "booing. "This low opinion in England is due to our failure to give expression to our outraged conscience and long suffering in the face of repeated frightful crimes. We have lost prestige in France, Italy, Russia, and the Balkans, while the Germans hold vs to be more than foes. Everywhere it in said that we are diseased with the itch for money, are namby-pamby, and too sordid and cowardly to fight." THE TYPEWRITER AGAIN.
/ ANOTHER iMERICAN NOTE. Received Jan. 9, 5.5 p.m. Washington, Jan. 8. The United States has despatched a vigorous Note to Britain protesting against British interference with American mails en route to neutral countries.
