France Denies Seizure of Vessel Aimed at Denmark
In a Paris correspondence, the French Government defends its actions over a vessel sunk in Danish port terms. The debate centers on whether the ship, part of a Confederate-linked sale, was mishandled when French flags were lowered and ship ownership shifted before Danish acceptance.
