SPAIN SAID To Be
PREPARED FOR WAR

Madrid, June 2S.-Spain is extreme
ly desirous of maintaining its neu-
trality, but it appears more than like
ly that circumstances stronger than
its will may eventually bring 1t into
the present conflict. A prominent
diplomat and an important military
authority said that September prob
ably will see Spanish forces in the
field on the side of the allies.
Preparations ON a large scale are
being carried on at Trubia and OWE
do. The national gun factories have
been working day and night manufac-
turing arms, cannon, shells and other
war material. Uniforms are also be
ing manufactured.
A significant fact is the calling out
for this autumn, ostensibly for the
purpose of maneuvers, not only the
present years eonscription but of the
preceding year also, which will in the
aggregate employ a body of 100000
men ON a war footing.
The minister of war is making q
tour of inspection of the various
military centers and factories and
the government intends to recall 90,
0O0 men from the Spanish posses

CAN'T BE TIPPED"
Woman Head Of CIoakroom Could
Make $2,500.

Seattle, Wash.-May Stehle, in charge
of the cloakroom at hotel here, is
untippable.
If she would take tips she could
make $500 a year In addition TO her
salary. But" she says, II would lose
my self respect"
The hotel management could, if 1t
desired, fire Miss Stehle and save her
salary and, TO boot, sell the cloakroom
privileges" for $3.50 q month.
But the mere fact that it has an
employee who actually spurns tips has
proved such an advertisement that the
hotel can't afford to let Miss Stehle go
If it wanted which ii doesn't.
The travelling public cannot believe
its ears when Ii hears Miss Stehle
refuse tips. Thank YOU" she says,
with gracious smile, "but l do not

A copy of the petition, which is ad-
dressed to President Wilson, made
public in New York, sets forth that
the British blockade measures CON
Germ mot only the property rights of
the undersigned citizens" but in
volyed a contemplated unlawful de-
struction of a most important por-
tion of the entire commerce of the
United States. The petition discusses
at length issues of international law
involved and urges upon the presi-
dent "the need for a very early de-
termination of these issues so that
we may know whether we will be able
to conduct our established business. -
England Avoids Answer.
Great Britain, the petition says,
has studiously avoided" answering
the American note of March 80, in
which the position of this govern
ment in regard to the blockade
measures was set forth and nearly
three months of valuable time, in
which il was necessary for us to pre-.
pare for our coming business, have
passed"
Notwithstanding that this declara-
tion of the British government does
not follow from any declared and
maintained blockade of German ter.
ritory," the petition says, we have
been unable to induce any steamship
companies to carry our goods, Ameri
can property, either from unblockad
ed German ports or from neutral
ports to which the goods have been
shipped by means of internal land
4 communication.
"The mere fact that Great Britain
4 does not threaten confiscation of oul
\ goods if they are shipped does moi
concern us, because, first, we cannot
I get them shipped, and, secondly, be
cause We are interested in the much
greater question of lawfully obtain
ing an uninterrupted supply of oul
American owned merchandise, wheth
er the same has been paid for, con
tracted for, or may be contracted FOL

German Position Explained
by Official Organ.
DUETO MISUNDERSTANDING
Berliner Tageblatt, Exponent of Chan,
celIor's Policies, Asserts Much of
the Present Feeling Is the Result
OF Jinuoes in Both Countries.

Of Jinuoes in Both Countries.
Berlin. June 2S.-A strong editorial
in the Berliner Tageblatt, exponent OF
the German chancellor's policies, is
expected to have an important influ-
ence on the German-American situa-
tion.
The Tageblatt appealed to the peo-
pie both of Germany and of America
to view the Lusitania situation sanely
and not to be misled by jingoes.
The editorial, it was the opinion
here, will go a long way toward
checking a reaction which is expected
before the next German reply is sent
to Washington.
THE newspapers of America and
Germany should employ to the best
advantage an exchange of notes, clear
ing up the earlier misunderstanding
which influenced the recent senti-
ment," said the Tageblatt. 1T is evil
dent that America was as badly mis-
informed as to Germany's attitude as
Germany was in regard to America.
1T must be remembered messages
that reached America represented that
Germany was Indifferent as to the pos
sibilities of war with the United
States and caused an exceedingly bad
feeling there. These statements were
founded on misrepresentation and
had no expression i'm Germany.
The German people and the Ger
man government cannot too emphatic
ally assert their earnest desire to
maintain relations of the utmost
friendliness with the United States
through all honorable means.
German Cause Suffers.
"The German cause in America also
has suffered by the fact that the ut
terances of German-American citizens
in the United States against the Amer
lean government have been falsely al
legged to have been inspired by the
imperial government. Nothing is far
ther from the German mind.
The small representation of Ger
mans In the American government
may be considered another factor con
tributing to the misinterpretation o
the German sentiment in America.
"The present relations between the
two countries are not so bad, and Will
mutual efforts the situation may b'
cleared up and an understanding ar
rived at. Only at one point will it %
difficult to reach a satisfactory agree
ment-that is on the ammunition prob
lem.
Germany will continue to regre
the sale by Americans of contrabant
to Germany's enemies. While Amer
lea is adhering to the letter of thl
law, she is helping to prolong the un
fortunate and terrific conflict Gel
many acknowledges. of course, tha
the suppositlon that the America
government participates in this barte
is absolutely unfounded.
Public opinion i'm Germany unan
mously favors continuing the use o
the submarine, which is PRACTICAL
our only weapon against British cor
traband commerce. But we hope
speedy understanding on this poin
will be reached We believe broa
minded citizens of America will nc
accept the views and charges of a
inspired portion of the press agains
Germany"
