Contlnned from Taje One
as far as possible from tho measures of
war. The imperial Government cherlshe
the definite hope that some way will be
found, when peace IA concluded, or per
haps earlier, to regulate tho law of marl
time war In a manner guaranteeing th
freedom of the seas, and will welcome
It with gratitude and satisfaction If It
can work hand In hand with tho Ameri
can Government on that occasion.
OEnMANT NOT atJILTT.
"If, In the present war, the principles
which- should be the Ideal of the future
have been traversed more and more, tho
longer Its duration, the German Govern
mem has no guilt therein. It Is known
to tho American Government how Ger
many's adversaries, by completely para
lyzing peaceful traffic between Germany
and neutral countries, havo aimed from
the very beginning and with Increasing
lack of consideration at the destruction,
not so much of the armed forces as the
life of the German nation, repudiating,
In doing bo, all the rules of International
law and disregarding all rights of neu
trals. "On November 3, 18H, England declared
tho North Sea o war area, and by plant
ing poorly-anchored mines and by the
stoppago and capture of vessels mado
passage extremely dangerous and dim
cult for neutral shipping (sol) by (that?)
actually blockading neutral coasts and
ports, contrary to all International law.
Long before tho beginning of submarine
war England practically completely In
tercepted legltlmato neutral navigation
to Germany also.
"Thus Germany was driven to a sub
marine war on trade,
"On Novemberll, 1914, tho English Pre
mier declared In tjio HoUso of Commons
that It was one of England's' principal
taskfl to prevent food. for. tho German
population from reaching Germany via
neutral ports. Since Aiarch 1 England
has been taking from neutral ships with
out further formality all merchandise
proceeding to Germany, ns well as all
merohandlso coming from Germany, even
when neutral property. Just as It was
also with tho Boers, tho German people
la now to be given the choice of perishing
from starvation, with Its women and
children, or of relinquishing Its independ
ence. IN SELF-DEFENSE.
"While our enemies thus loudly and
openly proclaimed war without mercy un
til our utter destruction, wo were con
ducting a war In self-defense for our na
tional existence and for tho sake of peace
of on assured permanency. Wo have
been obliged to adopt a submarlno war
faro to meet tho declared Intentions of
our enemies and the method of warfare
aiSbptcd by them In contravention of In
ternationa) law.
"With all its offorts In principle to pro
tect neutral life and property from dam
age as much as possible, tho German
Government recognized unreservedly In
Its memorandum of February 4 that tho
Interests of neutrals might suffer from
tho submarlno warfare. Howovcr, tho
American Government will also under
stand and approclato that In the fight for
existence which has been forced upon
Germany by Its adversaries nnd an
nounced by them, It Is the sacred duty
of the Imperial Government to do all
within Its power to protect nnd savo the
llvos of German subjects. If tho Imperial
Government wero derelict In these, Its
duties. It would bo guilty before God and
history of tho violation of those principles
of highest humanity which aro the foun
dation of everj' national existence.
"Tho case of tho Lusltanla shows with
horrible clearness to what Jeopardizing of
human lives the manner of conducting
war employed by our adversaries leads.
In tho most direct contradiction of in
ternational law, all distinctions between
merchantmen and war vessels havo been
obliterated by the ordor to British mer
chantmen to arm themselves nnd to rom
submarines, and tho promise of rewards
therefor, and neutrals who use merchant
men as travelers thereby have been ex
posed In an Increasing degree to all tho
dangers of war.
MEANT SELF-DESTRUCTION.
"If the commander of tho German sub
marine which destroyed the Lusltanla
had caused the crew and passengers to
take to the boats before firing a torpedo,
this would have meant tho sure destruc
tion of his own vessel. After the experi
ences in sinking much smaller and less
seaworthy vessels, it was to be expected
that a mighty Bhlr Uke the Lusltanla
would remain above Wgier long enough,
even after the torpedolftf to permit pas
sengers to enter the ehttfe boats. Cir
cumstances of a very pectftlar kind, es
pecially the presence on bod of large
quantities of highly explosive materials
(word omitted, possibly 'dissipated") this
expectation. In addition, It may be
pointed out that It the Lusltanla bad
been spared, thousands of cases of muni
tions would have been sent to OermnnyV
enemies, and thereby thousands of Ger
mnn mothers and children roonea or
bread-winners.
"In the, spirit of friendship wherewith
tho Germnn nation has been Imbued to
ward the Union and Its Inhabitants since
the earliest days of Its existence, tho Im
perial Government will always be ready
to do all It can during the present war,
also, to prevent the Jeopardizing of Uvea
of American citizens. Tha Imperial Gov
ernment, therefore, repeats the assur
ances that Amerloan ships will not be
hindered in tho prosecution of legitimate
shipping, and the lives of American citi
zens In neutral vessels shall not bo
placed In Jeopardy.
"In order to exclude any unforcfecn
dangers to American passenger steamers,
mado possible In view of the conduct of
maritime war by Germany's adversaries,
German submarines will bo Instructed to
permit tho free and safe passage of sueh
passenger steamers when mado recog
nizable by special marking and notified
a reasonable time In advance. The Im
perial Goverrtment, however, confidently
hopes that tho American Government will
assumo to guarantee that these vessels
havo no contraband on board, dotalls of
arrangement for tho unhampered passage
of these vessols to bo agreed upon by tho
naval authorities of both sides.
PIIOVIDE FACILITIES.
"In order to furnish adequate' facilities
for travel across tho Atlantic for Amor
lean ellizons, tho German Government
submits for consideration a proposal to
Increaso tho number of available steam
ships by Installing In passenger service
a reasonable number of neutral steam
ships Under the American flag, tho oxact
number to bo agreed upon under the
earns conditions as tho above-mentioned
American steamships.
"The Imperial Government believes It
can assumo that In thl? manner adequate
facilities for travol across tho Atlantic
Ocean enn bo afforded American citizens.
Thero would, therefore, appear to be no
compelling necessity for American citizens
to travel to Europe In tlmo of war on
ships cnrrylng an enemy flag. In par
ticular, tho Imperial Government Is un
able to admit that American citizens can
protect nn enemy ship through the more
fact of their presence on board.
"Germany merely followed England's
examplo when she declared part of the
high seas an nrea of war. Consequently,
accidents suffered by neutrals on enemy
ships In this area of war cannot well be
Judged differently from accidents to
which neutrals are at all times exposed
at the scat of war on land when they bo
tako themselves Into dangerous locali
ties In spite of previous warnings. If,
however, It should not be posslblo for the
American Government to acquire an ad
equate number of neutral passenger
steamers, the Imperial Government of
prepared to Interpose- no objections to
tho placing under tho American flag by
tho American Government of four enemy
passenger steamers for passenger traffic
between North Amerloa and England.
Assurances of 'freo and safe' passage for
American passenger steamers would ex
tend to apply under- the Identical pre
conditions to theso formerly hostile pas
senger steamers.
"The President of tho United States
has declared his readiness in a way de
serving of thanks to communicate and
BUggost proposals. to tho Government of
Great Britain with particular reference
to the alteration of maritime war.
"The Imperial Government will always
bo glad to make use of the good offices
of tho President, nnd hopes that his ef
forts In tho present case, as well as In tho
direction of the lofty Ideal of the free
dom of the seas, will lead to an under
standing. "Tho undersigned requests tho Am
bassador to bring tho above to the knowl
edge of the Amerlcnn Government, and
avails himself of the opportunity ,to re
new to his Excellency the assurance of
his most distinguished consideration.
(Signed) "VON JAGOW."
WASHINGTON DISAPPOINTED
BUT NOT ALARMED AT NOTE
Continued from Page One
In tho text cabled from Berlin, to guar
antee the safety of four belligerent ships
to carry Americans in the war zone under
tho American flag, would embarrass seri
ously tho Administration In Its anticipated
further demands, on Germany for safety
for Americans at sea.
Altogether tho German note, as now
available, was stated to have been much
more carefully constructed and to bo a
far more friendly statement than the pre
vious one.
Stripped of lta argumentative phrases,
the German reply as cabled from Berlin
In press dispatches holds out no assur
ances for the safety of Americans If they
travel on undesignated passenger ships of
a belligerent, such as the LuBltanla was.
Americans on American ships or
"marked" neutral ships need not fear
molestation, providing this Government
assures Germany that the neutral ves
sels carry no contraband. Tho note in
effect says that thero la no need for
Americans to use vessels belonging to
enemies of Germany.
Officials read with especial Interest that
clause In the note saying that the mere
presence of Americans aboard an enemy
ship cannot protect It.
SAFETY NOT GUARANTEED,
This was construed as another method
of saying that if Americans persist In
using British passenger steamships, be
lieved by Oermany to be carrying contra
band, Germany will not guarantee their
safety. Nor does Germany Indicate In
this note that she will stop to search or
seize such ships, In fact, it la pointed
out In the unofficial translation that Brit
ish merchantmen endeavor to ram sub
marines, and that the latter cannot run
"it is upon this point that the gravity
of the situation today was believed to
rest. It is not believed that this Gov
ernment would agree to a yftem under
Which Germany must ba advised of the
sailing of neutral vessels with Americans
aboard, such Information carrying with
It n guarantee that there Is no contra
band aboard the neutral vessel. Like
Wise It Is regarded as impossible that the
United States can accept a doctrine that
an American on a nonflghtlng enemy
ship is subject to destruction without
warning anywhere on the high seas.
Germany, in almost every paragraph
of her reply to the American note, puts
up to Great Britain the responsibility for
tho situation.
ENGLISH BLOCKADE BLAMED.
Tho Kaiser's Government contends that
the British blockade Jeopdardlzes the Ger
man Empire because It was Inaugurated
to starve her people. The submarine
warfare in retaliation, the reply says In
effect, must go on so long as the British
blockade continues.
In tho final paragraph, the Kaiser sug
gests that If President Wilson can use
his good offices to modify this blockade,
an understanding between Oermany and
tho United States easily would be
reached.
As a. whole, therefore, tho unofficial
text of the German reply Is regarded In
certain quarters as an argument rather
than an answer. It does not shut out
further Interchange between tho two Gov
ernments, but It makes necessary moro
delay In the adjustment of tho Lusltanla
controversy and does not hold out a
promise of acceptance of the underlying
principles enunciated by this Govern
ment in Its two previous communications.
A matter of special moment to official
Washington Is the apparent avoidance of
the Lusltanla incident. The German note
barely refers to the tragedy, and there Is
an utter lack of assumption of responsi
bility for It. Regret again la expressed
Indirectly that tho Lusltanla had to go
down, but there Is coupled with It the
sugestlon that Great Britain really Is to
blame because of the British blockade
and the order to British merchantmen to
ram submarines, .
A. "yes" or "no" answer on the question
of responsibility Is expected to be de
manded when the President and hla Cab
inet draft a third noto to Germany.

of th Baldwin Looomotive Works. I

o far a reparation it possible for Injuries without measure," and In'
form the German Government that the United State will not "omit any
word or act necettary to the performance of its sacred duty of main'
talning the right of the United State and of it cltitent,"
May 30 Germany repliet, alleging that "the Lusltanla had cannon
aboard which were mounted and concealed below dechs," and alto that
"German commander are no longer able to observe the customary
regulation of the prize law which they before always followed,"
June B Secretary of State Bryan, refusing to sign the second note
to Germany, resign hi poll because he cannot agree with President
Wllion on the latter1 course in the negotiation with Germany growing
out of the Lusltanla affair.
June 10Preitdent Wilton tend a second note to Germany denying
the allegation put forward by Germany that the Lusltanla was armed,
"once more, with solemn emphasis, call the attention of the Imperial
German Government to the grave responsibility which the Government
of the United State conceive it ha incurred in this tragic occurrence,"
and "deems It reasonable to expect that the Imperial German Government
will adopt the measure necenary to put these principle (of humanity
and law) into practice in reipeet of the safeguarding of American live
and American ships, and ash for assurance that thl will be done."
July 10 Germany replies to the second American note again deny
ing guilt in connection With the linking of the Lusitania, promising full
freedom to American ships not carrying contraband and offering to allow
four hostile passenger ship, if under the flag of the United State, to
ply between North America and Europe under the same condition.
BERLIN BELIEVES NOTE REMOVES
DANGER OP CRISIS WITH U. S,
BEnLIN. July 10.
General sentiment In official Gorman
circles today Is that the reply to tho sec
ond American note will remove all danger
of a crisis In tho relations between Ger
many and tho United States. Officialdom
regards tho reply as a document that
meets fully tho plea of President Wilson
for tho observance of tho principles of
humanity In tho war.
Tho reply upholds tho sinking of the
Lusltanla without warning, on the ground
that tho submarine which destroyed tho
liner would have courted destruction
otherwise. Full responsibility for sub
marlno attacks upon merchant shipping
Is placed upon England In this paragraph:
"In tho most direct contradiction of In
ternational law, all distinctions between
merchantmen and war vessels have been
obliterated by tho order to British mer
chantmen to arm themselves and to ram
submarines, and the promise of rewards
therefor, and neutrals who use mer
chantmen as travelers thereby havo been
exposed In an Increasing degree to all
tho dangers of war."
Without directly making tho assertion
that an explosion of ammunition In Its
cargo was responsible for the Lusitanta's
sinking so rapidly, the reply, neverthe
less, makes this Intimation, snylng:
"After tho experience In sinking much
smaller and less seaworthy vessels It was
to bo expected that a mighty ship llko
tho Lusltanla would remain above water
long enough, oven after tho torpedoing,
to permit passengers to enter tho ship's
boats. Circumstances of a very peculiar
kind, especially tho presence on board of
large quantities of highly explosive ma
terials, deceived this expectation."

BRITISH BELIEVE GERMAN REPLY
NOT SATISFACTORY TO WASHINGTON
LONDON, July 10.
Tho British expectation Is that the
United States will Hnd the Gorman reply
lo Its appeal to humanity In submarlno
warfare completely unsatisfactory. The
reply to the noto arrived hero too late
for tho morning papers,, but the evening
editions display It prominently. They de
clare that Germany has pointedly Ignored
the demand of tho American Government
that merchant vessels be stopped and
searched Instead of being sunk without
warning.
"This ono point alone," said an official
today, "Is enough to make tha reply
worthless. It Is apparent that Germany
Is seeking to bargain with the United
States. From the previous actions of tho
American Government wo know how suc
cessful the Berlin .office Will be.
"That part of the noto relating to the
Lusltanla requires no comment. The liner
was sunk by torpedoes and not by "tho
explosion of ammunition on board. She
was unarmed;''"
"Germany seems" to have overlooked the
fact that the American Government la
noting for all humanity and not for Amer
icans alone. The suggestion that Amer
ica report tho coming and going of her
ships to Germany is preposterous. It
win meet with tho scorn it deserves."
"Moro German Cant" was tho headline
In the Evening News.
"Germany insolently blames Great Brit
ain for the loss of life aboard tho Lusl
tanla and protests hypocritically about
ner Claims on tho principles of human
ity," said tho Evening Star.
"Wo can scarcely Imagine tho United
States will accept it as In any way moot
ing her demands," said tho Westminster
Gazette.
"Tho pirates' excuses aro ridiculously
transparent," said the Evening Standard.
"The unctuous Germans whine, 'We
always respect tho lives of civilians as
much ns possible,' but what about Belgium?"
Full approval of the German noto to
the United States Is contained in the
newspapers toaay. The LoKal Anzelger,
which usually reflects official opinion,

REPLY TO U. S. AS IMPOSSIBLE
NEW YORK, July 10.
New Tork afternoon papers comment
as follows today on tho German reply:
