Have Prevented
Attack
DANISH SHIP PURSUED
NEW YORK, Oct 14. The steamship
Bovlo, whloh reported by wireless yesterday
that she had seen a submarine 200 miles
east of New York, arrived here today. There
were conflicting reports on the submarine
story following the ship's arrival.
The captain denied to reporters that a
submarine had been seen, but the pilot who
brought the ship up the bay said that the
captain hod told him that a German sub
marine had not only been seen, but chased
the Bovlo, The vessel was followed for
some time, but the presence of a gun
mounted on her stern Is believed by the
pilot to have saved the ship.
nf DAnrNd' sea, dash.
The last seen of the submarine accord
ing to the pilot's story, she was chasing the
Danish ship Helllg Olavi which sailed from
this port 'earlier In the weak.
The Bovlo Is a British- freighter; and
salted from Manchester,
The Helllg Olav sailed from this port for
Copenhagen on Thursday, carrying many
paaengers and a general cargo. Belief, was
expressed In maritime circles that the sub
marine would not sink the liner, but that
the vessel was being chased to establish her
nationality.
SEEN FBIDAT MOIININO
Captain John Hall, the pilot who brought
the Bovlo up the bay, told the following
story?
"On the bridge coming up the bay Cap
tain Jones, of the Bovlo, told ma that his
lookout sighted the U-53 while steaming
about sixty miles east of Nantucket at C
o'clock Friday morning. She was about a
mile astern. As soon aa tha submarine
was sighted the gun crew waa assembled.
No shots were fired, although tha sailors
were sure they could have sunk tbe Ur
boat. The submarine, after following fan
about a quarter of a mile, suddenly veered
her course and started In the direction of
the Helllg Olav. At the time the Danish
shlp.'was about three miles away and could
be made out plainly. Those on the Bovlo
got their last glance of tha submarine as
she was going at top spaed toward tha
liner."
HELLIQ OfcAV 700 MILES OFF SHORE
At the oOloes of the'flcandlnavlan-Amer-Ican
IJno It was said that, although tha
Helllg Olav had bean In constant commu
nication with the officers of the line since
her departure, no mention had been made
of the incident reported by the Bovtc.
It was estimated that tha Helllg Olav
was now 600 or 700 miles from port, and
tt was thought vtrr unlikely that subma
rines would interfere wttn her except pos
sibly to stop" her to examme her papers.
Jt was pointed out that tha Scandinavian
American Line has never carried munitions
nor contrabands and never had any trouble
with U-boats.
BOSTON, Oct 1. -Absolutely nothing
has been heard of the German submarine
U-51 slaee reports were received from the
steamship Bovlo early yesterday, tha
Cbarlastown radio station reported today,
A report, was current here that the sub

, By CARL W. ACKERMAN
COLOONE, Oct. II. "If those fellows
make peace only when Oermany la knocked
out, then we will make peace."
This declaration came today from Ernest
Posxe, editor of the Cologne Gazette, and
probably Germany's greatest editor. His
thirty-three years connection with that
powerful Journal makes him probably tha
best unofficial spokesman of the empire In
replying to Lloyd George's recent state
ment that "the war must go on to a finish."
"For weeks the Allies have conducted a
press campaign against peace, especially at
Washington," said Posse. "They have said
repeatedly that there will be no peace until
we are broken, until they reach the Rhine.
Thesa statements liaVe strenBtrmned'our
position enormously. In my opinion the
military situation la better today than It
was a year ago. Tha Allies will never be
able to break the west front, while the sit
uation on other fronts may Improve. The
people are filled with confidence In von
Hlndenburg."
"OLD METHODS DONT APPLY"
"Can President Wilson make peace T" he
was asked.
"This War Is so enormous that the meth
ods for bringing peace which applied for
merly do not apply today," he replied. t'An
International congress cannot settle It. The
only plan Is for Wilson through Ambas
sadors to suggest that special envoys meet
In Washington, but I don't believe this
would succeed now,
"The Allies want peace on their own
terms, which wo certainly will not consider,
Here, as elsewhere, there are peace-at-any-price
folk, but the German people, as a
whole, want peace only when we can exist
aa a nation."
"ESSENTIAL" CONDITIONS
Three things the Gazette editor considers
essential to peace, so far as Oermany Is
concerned, are:
rint Tho military situation mmt
be considered Germany moil follow
ntemarck's poller of protecting her
weetern boundary, perhapi by taking
the French fortreee of Ilelfort, and, ae
tha Chancellor Indicated, ehe mill have
an Independent Poland on her other
frontier to protect her egatnet ltnielaa
aggreeolon.
Second Germany nml derHop and
protect her agricultural resources, ee
that ehe will no lonser be dependent
on .Argentina and Kosela for wheat or
cattle. She mmt protect her Indoetrtee,
eo that ehe can exlet In the erent of
another war without outelde aid. If
noeeeeary.
Third Germany mnit consider her
international position and must hare
colonies,
Posze believes that Chancellor von Beth
mann-Hollweg will retain, his post for the
remainder of the war. despite the attacka
pf hla critics. Field Marshal von Hlnden
burg, he feels, Is the key to the whoje situ
ation, and so long as Hlndenburg' and tha
Kaiser join with Bethmann-Holtweg In op
posing unlimited submarine warfare It will
not be renewed.

EIGHT-HOUR INQUIRY TO START SOON

eral George W, Goethals. Conferences between General Goethals, Trade Commis

By JOHN EDWIN NEVIN
WASHINGTON. Octw 14. Complication
between the United States and tha Entente
Powers will come to a critical point within
the next week. Already the Joint refusal of
Great Britain and France to accept the
American construction or International law
as applied to malt Is before the mate De
partment The reply to the demand that
the British blacklist be abolished Is an
route from London. It In effect aays that
this action is of no concern to the United
States, as It Is a "legitimate measure of de
fense." It is said In official quartern that Presi
dent Wilson probably will take no steps le.
define the position of the United States in
either matter until after election. Then. It
re-elected, he will take advantage of the
embargo authorizations conferred on him
by the shipping bill and the general revenue
bill which passed In tha closing daya of
Congress. But whether he will utilize thta
weapon In tha event of Ms defeat naturally
is known only to himself.
MAY STIR RESENTMENT
The next six weeks promise to be most
critical in the history of the United States.
Although the danger of complications over
German submarine operations on this side
of the Atlantlo overshadows the mall and
trade questions, which deal entirely with
dollars and cents, It Is accepted that any
draatlo action by the Administration to de
mand Its rights, as It understands them
under Its construction of International law,
at the hands of Great Britain will lead to
further resentment there, where Wilson
methods are not too popular at present
In connection with the submarine situa
tion, reports ha,Ye reached several Govern
ment departments that the operations of
the U-5S were not the nrst on this aide
of the ocean. Certain vessels, on "Admir
alty service," plying between Canadian
ports and Great Britain with supplies, are,
said to have been chased by submarine.,
within ten daysand atlerW'reporte
to have been sunk. These report's, nat
urally, are Impossible of confirmation her.,
because of ths fact that the British nawii
authorities Jn Canada maintain, their, eea
aorshlp. It is admitted, however, that British
warships and destroyers have been search
ing for more than a month along the bleak
and uninhabited coast of Labrador and at
other points of the Canadian coastline fer
a possible German submarine base similar
to those discovered off the coast of Scot
land early in the war. This base, or base,
according to reports, was established frost
the United States.
SEEK GERMAN BASES
And while tha British and American fleets
continue to make Independent search of
their own coast line for submarine bases,
olUclals here said that even though they are
located within the United States there 'la
no law which provides any drtitlo punish
ment tor their establishment on American
soil. Any prosecutions that might take
place, It Is said, would be limited to such
narrow lines that those responsible would
have a good chance of escaping punishment
on technicalities. It Is expected that, as
result of this discovery, comprehensive law
covering every phase of such a situation
will be asked by President Wilson of Con
gress when It reconvenes In December.
Up to the present all of the reports frost
the naval officers who are conducting th
search for.the rumored submarine base on
American soli Indicate that nona has beea
discovered. If German submarines have
been supplied off the American coast,
official say they were probably taken oars
of by privately owned yachts against whose
owners no evidence Is possible. And so far
as th U-BJ and U-tl are concerned,
offlolals here believe that they now are well
on their way back to their home base.
