Washington, Sopt. 13-Conferences
today between President Wilson and
Secretary Lansing and between Sec
retary Lansing anG Count Won Bern
storff. the German ambassador,
brought the situation growing out of
the German submarine activities, to
the following status:
The German ambassador has been
furnished with the evidence of officers
and survivors of the Arabic, all agree
ing that the liner was proceeding
peacefully when torpe0oed without
warning. and has been advised that
the United States desires disavowal
of the attack and reparation for the
American lives lost.
Evidence to Germany.
The evidence will be sent by Count
Won Bernstorff to the Berlin foreign
office, to which it has not beenavail-
able before, and it will probably be
ten days before Berlin is heard FROM.
In some quarters it is believed to be
possible that the foreign office, upon
examining the evidence, may change
it's position and disavow the action of

was claimed in the last note, sank the

S|DLE.CLARK
CASE IS BEFORE
SUPREME J I |: COURT
Fight for Possession Of Eight
Year Old Herbert Clark to
Open Soon
MANY WITNESSES WILL
BE CALLED IN TRIAL
Considerable New Evidence to be
Introduced by Attorneys on
Both Sides

The legal battle Tor the possession
of eight-year-old Herbert Clark will be
opened in the supreme court one week
from today, according to the calendar.
The fight between Mr.. and Mrs. G.
F. Clark of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and
Mr.. ana Mrs. W. J. Sidle of Flasher
has attracted great attention through
out the state and is the first case Of
the kind to be beard by the supreme
court. The interesting part of the
case opened last May when Mr.. and
Mrs. Sidle got out writ CT Habeas
corpus to secure possession Of the
child while Mr.. and Mrs. Clark were
temporarily in this city. The writ was
quashed by District Judge Nuessle,
however, and the case was taken to
the supreme court. The Sides in ap-
plying FOR the writ alleged that they
are the true parents of the child. A
second writ issued by the supreme
court was quashed by Chief Justice
Fisk. and the Clarks ordered to put
up bond of $4,000 to guarantee the
appearance of the child here on the
day set for the trial. The bond was
furnished. "
Case to Take Week.
The hearing of the case will in all
likelihood take at least a week. For
the past several months the attorneys
on both sides have been busy gather
ing evidence. Dispositions have been
taken in all parts OF the country and
any number of witnesses have been
sabpoenaed to appear at the trial. De-
positions We're taken in Massachus-
cites, Kansas, Iowa, Minnesota and
North Dakota, and also.in Washington.
The prominence Of the parties con-
cerned has given the case more than
usual interest. C.9F. Clark is a prom
inent attorney in Cedar Rapids, and
his wife is one of the social leaders
in the city.
Story Of CAGE.
The story OF the case is as follows:
The Sides who claim to be the real
parents of the child, gave the child to
a certain nurse to care for, while Mrs.
Sidle was ILL., This nurse was fire.
quently called out on professional du-
ties and frequently left the child with
the Clarks to care for in her absence.
The last. time she so left the child
with the Clarks she herself became i'll
and was gone for a considerable per-
iod of time. When she returned to
claim the child the Clarks refused
to give him up, claiming that they had
already adopted him. Thereupon the
nurse attempted to kidnap the child,
failed in the attempt and was arrested
on a charge of kidnapping. Later she
attempted to obtain possession of the
child through court orders but failed
to do so And then it is claimed the
nurse came to FLASHER and told the
parents of the situation, whereVpon
action was started.
Clark Known Here.
Attorney c. F. Clark is we'll known

times on business trips. sa-@.

TO
. FLOAT LOAN Of
COOL BILLION
Straight French and British
Bonds the Only Collateral
They Will Give
AMERICAN BANKERS
FAVOR COMMISSION
Will Pay in Gold for Everything
Purchased if Loan
Plans Fail

Now York, SEPT. lo.-The present
plan Of the joint Anglo-French finan>
cial commission, it was reported to-
night, is to borrow one billion in the
United States on straight British and
French government bonds wiy.lclt
any collateral whatever.
If this vast sum Of money is obtain
ed, it was said, it is to be spent to
the last cent in the United STAGES in
payment for wheat, cotton, meat and
other commodities shipped, including
munitions of war 1t will, therefore,
in the opinion Of financial authorities
be classified as a commercial loan.
Question of Neutrality.
Whether the neutrality of the Unit
ed States would be questioned in case
the bankers financing the mammoth
loan should accept straight British
and Frencl government notes as their
security has been given serious con
sideration. 1t was said that the fin
anciers familiar with the plan have
every reason to Believe that the Wa.h-
ington administration would nCt inter
fere.
The foregoing was the unan NOUS
opinion tonight CT many scores OF
prominent bankers of New York and
the chief cities of the country, VINO
have visited the commission at it,
headquarters during it's stay in the
clay. AS to its correctness, the mem
bers of tile commission decline posi-;
lively to comment.
. 1t is to be a loan without collateral
of any sort, or no loan at all-that is
the present plan of the commission at
least, so far as the American tinan.
ciers visiting it has been able to
learn.
Commissions Attitude.
Here is the attitude of the reported
commission as gathered by bankers
who have talked with the commission.
ers during their stay here: the credit
of great Britain and France has never
been questioned. They are able, to
pay for anything they promise to paw
for. Their bonds are the standard of
world investment. u .9 '
These countries require only one
thing from the United StateS-muHi-
tions of war. True, they would like
to have great many other things
wheat, cotton, corr, meats manufac-
tured goods, thousand and one differ
ent articles-but they can exist with
out some of them, and the others they
can buy elsewhere, if necessary. But
for the one thing. these countries need
war munitions. they are prepared to
pay in gold, if they have to. And they
will pay in gold rather than submit to
terms that they thirk are onerous in
establishing a credit here.
Means Prosperity.
Four hundred million bushels of
wheat fresh from the harvest fields
would choke American granaries,
some of the financiers said. if the
commission should fail in accomplish
ing it's mission here One authority
whose name is known the world over
ventured that it would be better to
dump two hundred million bushels of
American wheat into Lake Michigan
tomorrow than to send the commits.

The historian of the present time is

the little incidents that surrounded it
