pleasure. BY writing 10 MT. Lansing
announcing his return to Washing
ton. and suggesting that the secretary
might wish TO see him, the ambas-
sador made il difficult for him "a
visit the State Department to discuss
the submarine issue until invited to
do so. Mr.. Lansing replied TO the am
bassador's note that IL might be desir-
able for them TO have talk, and.
meeting the ambassador informaily
today outside the department, the
two agreed again that IL might be well
for them to discuss the situation.
No Time Fixed For Discussion.
No time has been fixed for this dis
cussion, however, and 1t Is very prob>
able that 1t will not take place until
the course OF the administration mas
been well thought out. The admins
tration, apparently, viii not put itself
in the position of looking to the am.
bassador for counsel or assistance in
the present situation.
1t is known here that the ambassa-
dor wishes to emphasize certain pointa
in his government note, particularly
in reference to the phrase freedom
of the seas" and also regarding inc
suggestion that the United States end
the submarine warfare by serving as
Britain. The ambassador feels that a
great opportunity lies before this gov
eminent in the present situation: that
If it will take the initiative in secur-
ing pledges from Great Britain and
Germany for the freedom of the
seas 1t may bring about the end of
the war.
Freedom of the Seas"
1t develops, however, that the
the phrase, freedom of the seas" is
not defined in the same way at the
German embassy. and at the State
Department The American Govern
ment feels that Germany has vio-
lated the freedom of the seas in kill
ing noncombatants and neutrals, and
in attacking neutral vessels on the
highways of commerce. 1t is. indeed,
pressing Germany to respect the free
dom of the seas in this particular.
The German proposal. on the other
hand, is that the slate be wiped clean
by instituting freedom of seas,
which shall make all commerce a bso-
lutely free in time of war, as well as
in peace.
The impression prevails here that
the administration will refuse to
yield it's claim on the submarine issue
with Germany for the sake of trying
to institute an ideal condition.
Reports from Berlin that the I'M
favorable reception of the German
note in this country Ia not understood
there. caused little concern in Wash
ington today. 1t was pointed out that
Ambassador Bernstorff has been able
to make lengthy reports to his gov
eminent in the two months that the
submarine issue has been up; that he
sent Meyer Gerhard to Berlin to ex-
plain the American attitude: that
DR. Dernberg. the German spokesman
in this country, has also returned TO
Germany recently. and that there Is
no reason why the attitude of Amer
leans should not be thoroughly known
to Berlin by this time

FIRE BRIGADE BIG
HIT IN ROOSEVELT
CheSter'S Hall Packed to Doors
Expect Another Capacity
Crowd ia Crescent Tonight.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS
Roosevelt, July 2:-Chester's hall
was packed to the doors last night
to see the production of the great
fire play, "The Fire Brigade" which
was staged with local talent under
the management and direction of
Captain Harry DeLong, of New York
City, as a benefit to the Roosevelt
Fire Company No. 1. From the ex-
pressions of the vast audience pres
ent and the roars of applause which
greeted the efforts of the local talent
1t can safely be stated that the bor-
ough has never seen anything like
it before. 1t is expected that the
Crescent will be crowded to the
doors tonight, where the same play
will be staged with the same clever
cast, with a special children's natl
nee at p. N. this afternoon.
Special mention cannot at this
time be made of each character in
the play, but suffice it to say that
each carried out their different roles
in truly professional style, re-
spending to many encores through
out the play. Captain Harry DeLong
tuu WllC ouhtu lIc 1SduluB iOIOc
and their long experience in this line
of work enabled them to portray
their lines perfectly and to carry
those about them through the pro-
duction without the usual slips that
often occur in local plays. In fact
the production was as near to per-
lection as one could desire, and the
great fire scene with the thrilling
life net leap by Mary McNally was
alone well worth the price of admis-
sion. The brave fire laddies, rush
ing to the rescue, unfurling the life
net and heroically saving the preci-
Gus life, were cheered. Many who
saw the production at Chester's hall
last night are going to the Crescent
theatre tonight, when the playhouse
will be filled to its capacity again.
The children's matinee will no
doubt be we'll attended this after
noon at p. M, when the little tots
can enjoy this really clever show.
