TRAVEL Hamburg - American j and North German , Lloyd Craft to Fly Stars and Stripes. BROKER WEDS WIDOW .'Berlin Would Turn Over Giant Vessels for Neutral Passen ger Traffic Take Exception to Wording of Note Translation. By CARL W. ACKERMAN BBnutf, July ii Germany Is willing to make further concessions to safeguard American trnv elers In the "war zone," tho Foreign Of fice Informed me today. She wilt not 1 abandon her submarine policy, but she trill consent to placing several great German liners under the American flag for tho remainder of the war In addition to granting Immunity from submarine attacks to four English liners, as pro posed In her latest note to Washington. 1 The suggestion mado waa that tho big Hamburg-American liners Imperator and ICaleerln Auguste Victoria and the Korth German Lloyd liner Oeorge Washington (be placed at the disposal of tho Ameri can Government for transporting neutrals through the zona of submarine opera tions. , "Of course, you understand this matter would rest with tho ships' owners," said Under Foreign Secretary Zimmerman. "but Germany -would be willing to placd ,at aervlca of American travelers hero 'the largest liners If the American Gov 'ernment cares to suggest It. If America .desires to place them under the Ameri Scan flag, we shall certainly agree." ! NEUTRAL OIIBW8. I Germany, It was Intimated at tho For eign Office. Is willing to turn over these interned passenger ships without finan cial gain and with neutral crews, from ,tho captain down. The chief reason that Americana desire to travel aboard Eng rail liners, it was pointed out. probably is because better accommodations can be ,aecured In the majority of cases. Should the German liners be operated under the American flag neutral passengers could .travel aboard fast, luxurious ships In the iknowledge that they -were safo from sub marine attack. Furthermore, It was .pointed out, the soiling schedules would "not ba interrupted, as has been tho case with English liners, because tho ships were commandeered by the Government for use as transports. In official circles hero regret was ex pressed today that the English transa ction of the German reply does not exactly "interpret tho spirit pf the German text. The general opinion waa that the German (original was more friendly In tone than The translation sent to America. Under 'Secretary Zimmerman commented par ticularly on the translation of that sen tence which In the English version waa .Triads to read as follows: ' "The Imperial Government cherishes 'the, deflnlto hope that some way will be found, when peace Is concluded, or per haps earlier, to regulate the law of marl itlme war In a. manner guaranteeing tho ifreedom of the seas, and will welcome It with gratitude and satisfaction, If It can -work hand In hand with the American Government on that occasion."

The chairman of the Committee on -Resolutions, which composed the mes sage, Is tho Rev. Theodore Hammache, reotor of St. Ignatius Church. Another resolution, which will bo acted on to morrow, was adopted This puts tho fed eration on record m opposed to prohibi tion and local option as interfering with liberty of conscience.

Resolutions of sym pathy with his family were adopted. Mr Nickel lived at U23 Pcnn avenue. Pitts burgh. Great Britain's attempt to drag tho United States Into the European war was deplored by City Solicitor Michael J Ryan In the course of an address before the Federation at the Metropolitan Opera House, lost night More than 3000 mem bers attended and applauded vigorously when speakers demanded that this coun try Immediately placo an embargo on all exportation or arms and munitions. Mr. Ryan declared that the world was tired of war and would come at last to tho Pope to seek true neutrality and a spirit of benevolence that would deal alike with all nations. He declared that al though tho society met under a German name, every member was a real Ameri can. Joseph Frcy, president of the Central Vcreln of New York, indorsed the views of, Mr. Ryan, and added, "We object to being called German-Americans or hyphe nated Americans. We are real lovers of this country and don't like being regarded as second raters But It Is no trason because of our feeling of loyalty to our fatherland to demand that the United States stop sending nrearms abroad. This Is within our rights as American citizens. Leaders of Councils today refused to pledge their unqualified efforts to obtain earlv nctlon by Councils toward n start In tho construction of the proposed Con vention Hall, which must be constructed within the next ten months If Philadelphia Is to get the Republican National Conven tion next year. Both Senator Penrose and Conness- man Vare, In pledging their support to the movement to secure the convenUon for this city, pointed out the necessity for early action toward securing n suit able hall. The National Commltteo would not select Philadelphia, they said, unless a suitable halt and a fund sufficient to defray the expenses of the gathering are assured. The Chamber of Commerce directors. who are taking hold of tho movement to bring the convention to Philadelphia, have consulted engineers and have learn ed that If Councils act when that body reconvenes In September, the proposed new convention hall could be started In tlmo to have the building ready for hold ing the assembly in June. John P. Connelly, chairman of Councils' Finance Committee, and the Organization leader In Common Council, absolutely refused to pledge his support. "I want to see tho Republican National Convention come to Philadelphia," ho said "It Is hard to predict what Coun cils might do regarding tho Convention Hall. No special meeting of Councils has been called to consider the mat ter now, and anything la liable to happen berore councils meet again In September. I would not like to say now that I would make an effort to have Councils act on the convention hall immediately after they reconvene, because something might hap pen between now and then to alter the situation. On the other hand. I will not say that early action will not bo token, as circumstances may make It advisable to take Immediate action on the matter when Councils meet next September." Charles P. Seger, chairman of the sub committee on Finance, refused to discuss the convention hall.

There Is no argument possible with a Government which enters this plea, or with a people which en thusiastically supports It. It Is all a piece of the outrages in France and Bel gium " ; The Globe says: "The note means that j&aterlca must become an accessory be jfflre the fact In Germany's crimes, or Americana will continue to be murdered by CUrman agents.

Boys Had Robbed Shanty. Four hundred and seven sticks of dynamite lay between the rails, on ties and along the roadbed of the Philadelphia and Reading Railway at Flat Rock Dam. a mile above Manayunk, for several hours while express, passenger and freight trains rolled over them. None, however, exploded. Lata last night a man walking along the tracks struck his foot against an object and ho stooped In the darkness to see what it was. When he saw it was a stick of dynamite he nearly dropped it. Finally, ho decided It would not explode If carried carefully, so he started with It for Manayunk and the police station. On tho way be encountered four more sticks and covered the rest of the distance even mors delicately. A police patrol from the Manayunk station carried Acting Sergeant Tomlln son and six men to a point near the dam. They climbed down to the tracks and picked up all they could find. At the police station later 407 separate sticks were counted. These made a total of 300 pounds. The dynamite came from a shanty used by the McGraw Construction Company in tracks. Police who Investigated, found that boys had broken Into the shanty yes. terday. The police believed the boys, not knowing their loot to be dynamite, rolled the sticks down the hill from the shanty to the railroad tracks.

Premier Asquith was Interpolated in the House of Commons as to whether he agreed with Mr. Lloyd-George's criticism of Lord Haldane, but the Premier refused to make any statement. The British political situation has de veloped Into a scandal as a result of the Intrigues both In and out of the Gov ernment.

Arbitrators in $50,000 Slander Suit Hear Argu ments in Private Coun sel in Sharp Controversy Over Methods. WILKES-BARRE, Fa., July 11 Arbi trators In the J50.000 slander suit of Coun cilman W. J. Cullen, of Hazteton. against Evangelist Henry W. Stough, decided to shut the doors to the public, when argu ment warf heard today In the private chambers of Judge P. A, O'Boyle. There was room only for tho Interested parties of tho suit Paul J, Sherwood, one of Stough's law jcrs, announced that he waa opposed to -star chamber" sessions ana saia no would not make his argument In private. He left tho room, but came back and sold he was witting to go on. Sherwood declared there was no cause for action, because the plaintiff's state ment and all the evidence showed tho slander to have been a privileged com munication, uttered In good falUj by one Interested for the welfare of society, nnd hence was not actionable. Thero could be no dander where nn attack Is made In good faith, ho said, and he quoted decisions from Justice Paxon, that where criticism is made on proper occasion and with a proper notlco thcro Is no causo for action. Ho also quoted State decisions to show that a communication may bo delivered for tho welfaro of society. Probablo cause was shown, Mr, Sherwood asserted when Doctor Stough received word from Mayor Harvey that Cullen and tho other plaintiffs In tho slander suits wero responsible for vlco conditions in Hazlcton. Ho said Doctor Stough had mado Investigations and, from reports, ho had ground for probable cause. Mr. Sherwood referred to Luzerne County as tho third black political spot In tho State. First honors wore glvon Philadelphia County and second place to Allegheny County. Shcrwocd attacked District Attorney John H. Blgelow, and alleged that as a county ofllclal he permitted liquor Inter ests to violate tho law. This statement created a tilt among counsel, but soon passed over. Jamca Scarlet, of Danville, also of counsel for Stough, said the statements on which tho suit was based did not snow slander per so and held that there can be no award of damages. Scarlet said In the great uplift movement In the na tion, In tho pulpit, tn the press, from tho rcstrum, and In private, the "invisible government" controlled by politicians Is always open to attack and asserts that where there Is suspicion there Is also probable cause. District Attorney Blgelow pointed out as slander certain words spoken from the pulpit of the Hazleton tabernacle Hold ing the four plaintiffs responsible for disorderly houses, he said, was a suf ficient cause for an action for slander. Blgelow bitterly attacked the evangelist and charged that he had hidden behind a poor memory. He described Stough as a preacher looking for reward, who "worships the god of gold and who cares not uhom he harms so long as the golden stream pours In " After Blgelow finished counsel on each sldo submitted briefs to tho arbitrators. Tho board has seven days In which to ftle an award, after they have agreed, but they have unlimited time In which to de liberate on testimony and the arguments.
