British Policies Not at Issue.
THE imperial German government
will readily understand that the gov
ernment of the United States cannot
discuss the policy of the government
of Great Britain with regard to neu-
trail trade except with that govern
ment itself and that it must regard
the conduct of other belligerent gov
ernments as irrelevant to any discus
sion with the imperial German govern
ment of what this government regards
as grave and unjustihable violations
of the rights of American citizens by
German naval commanders.
illegal and inhuman acts. however
justitiable they may be thought to be
against an enemy which is believed ts
have acted in contravention of law
and humanity, are manifestly indie
fensible when they deprive neutrals
of their acknowledged rights, particu-
larly when they violate the right to
life itself. If belligerent cannot re-
taliate against an enemy without in
juring the lives of neutrals as well as
their property, humanity, as well as
justice and a due regard for the dig
nifty of neutral powers, should dictate
that the practice be discontinued.
"If persisted in it would in such
circumstances constitute an unpardon
able offense against the sovereignty Of
the neutral nation affected.
1.-The government of the United
States is not unmindful OF the ex-
traordinary conditions created by this
war, or of the radical alterations of
circumstance and method of attack

ITO Ambassador Gerard, Berlin:
you are instructed to deliver textu-
ally the following note to the minister
for foreign affairs:
The note of the imperial German
government dated the Sth of July, 1915,
has received the careful consideration
OF the government OF the United States.
and II regrets to be obliged to say that
it has found It very unsatisfactory be-
cause 1t fails to meet the real differ
ences between the two governments
and indicates no way In which the ac-
cepted principles of law and humanity
may be applied In the grave matter In
controversy. but proposes, on the con
trary, arrangements for a partial sus-
pension of those principles which vir-
tually set them aside.
The government of the United States
notes with satisfaction that the impe-
rial government recognizes without res
ervation the validity Of the principles
insisted on in the several communica-
tions this government has addressed to
the imperial German government with
zone and the use of submarines against
merchantmen on the high seas-the
principle that the high seas are free
that the character and cargo of mer
chairman must first be ascertained be
fore she can lawfully be seized or de-
stroyed and that the lives of noncom-
batants may In no case be put in jeop-
ardy unless the vessel resists or seeks
tolescape after being summoned to sub
NIT to examination, for belligerent
act of retaliation is per Sc an act be-
yond the law. and the defense OF an act
as retnliatory is an admission that it Is

the city also took some clothing that

II was also learned last night that

him when he left Augusta had revolv-

who were at the train, but whether
or not the guns were automatics could
not be learned. Neither could it be
learned that any automatics had been
sold this week by local dealers in

The Austro-Hungarian reply
to the American note on the
sinking of the Ancona is in the
hands of the American ambassa-
dor at Vienna, but the text has
not been received at Washing
ton. The contents of the note,
however, apparently have been
made public in Berlin and other
German cities, the comments of
the German newspapers indicat-
ing that the Austrian govern
ment will not comply with all
the demands of the United
States, but that proposals are
embodied in the reply for an ex-
change of views and that the
United States government is
asked to furnish proofs of it's
charges against the command
er of the submarine which de-
stroyed the Ancona with the loss
of American lives.
Washington dispatches indi-
cate that the United States will
make one more attempt to Sc
cure compliance with its original
demand, dispatching another
note to Austria-H ungaria if the
Austrian reply proves to be as
indications lead officials to be-
lieve. If this prove futile the
next step undoubtedly will be
severance of diplomatic rela-
tions.
