Unless German Government Offers to Make Full Resti- tuition, United States Will
 Forward Protests to Berlin.
GERMANY MAY AGREE
 TO APOLOGIZE AT ONCE
Payment of Full Damages and Courtmar6aling of German Captain May be the Terms Made for Satisfaction.

WASHINGTON. Marcn 11-Unless the German government voluntarily offers to make restitution for the de- suuction of the American snip, Wil- liam Frye. sunk by the converted cruiser Prnz Eitel in the South Att lantic and expresses regret for the occurrence. a strong protest win be made by the United States with a re- quest for rcparation. Probably no an- nouncements concerning the case will be made, 1t is said by high officials, until the investigation into all the facts is completed. The president said a searching inquiry will be con ducted
 Officials are unanimous in their opinion. and it is shared largely bv diplomats that the commander of the Etel had no right to send the Frye to the bottom Captain Boyd. the na- val attache at the German embassy. it is understood here, has gone to New port News from New York to con- fer with the captain of the Eitel and obtain a sworn statement of facts for the German government
 It is considered probable by off, cials, that the German governmenl would admit the error of the naval commander and agree to make the usual separations. Some officials thought that sufficient amends after the payment of damages. would be he court martialing of the German officer. It is made clear at the state depart ment that whatever action may be taken as a result Of th esinkng of the Eyre. it will be entirely divorced from the questions arising out of the entry into an American port of the Prinz Eitel. desiring time for repairs.
 The vessel could therefore depart. leaving the question brought no bf the destruction of the American shin 10 be settled through diplomatic chan. nels. Captain Kiehne of the Frye has been asked okeep the members oc his crew together so all the testimony necessary for diplomatic correspon. dence may be gathered. The captain will probably come to Washington Sat urday 10 confer with treasury and state department officials to give a personal statement of the circnmstan ces surrounding the sinking of his ship
 II is said in official quarters the American government took note of the fact that American citizens by en forced presence on board the German cruiser for more than a month, nave been subjected to unnecessary iisk' which might have involved serious dangers to them and that this vii probably be one of the points in tho correspondence which is certain t' develop between the United States anC Germany over the incident.
