Berlin, May 30.-Germany withholds
its final decision on the demands ad-
yanced by the United States govern
ment in connection with the sinking
of tie Lusitania until the receipt OF
an answer from the United States to
the note which Herr van Jagow, the
foreign minister, has delivered to Am
bassador Gerard, in reply to the Amer
lean note received by the German gov
ernment on May 10. In its reply the
German government declares taat it
is not its intention to submit neutral
ships in the war zone, which are guilty
of no Lostile acts, to attacks by sub
marine or aeroplane; that it is lnVestl-
eating the circumstances in connec-
ton with the attacks on the American
steamers Cushing and Gulfight ana
that in all cases where neutral YES
sells, through no fault of their own,
have been damaged Germany will pay
indemnidcation.
The reply urges that in tie case OF
The Lusitania, which Germany alleges,
was armed and carried large stores OF
war munitions, "it was acting in justi-
fed self-defense in seeking with all
the means of warfare at its disposition
10 protect the lives of the soldiers by
DESTROYING ammunition intended for
the enemy.
Pass Buck to British
The German government recalls tae
proposals submitted by the United
States government to Berlin and Lon
don. designed to end tie submarine
warfare and the shutting out OF food
supplies from Germany which, it de-
clares. failed Of their purpose because
Of the refusal of the British govern
ment to agree to them.
The following is the text OF the
German note made public today:
"The undersigned has tie honor to
submit to Ambassador Gerard the fol-
lowing answer to the communication
of May Is regarding the injury to
American, interests through German
submarine warfare
"The imperial government has sub
nnitted the communication of the
American government to a thorough
investigation. 1t entertains also a
keen wish to cooperate in a frank and
friendly way in clearing up a possi-
BILE misunderstanding which may have
arisen in the relations between the
two governments through the events
mentioned by the American govern
ment.
Regarding, firstly, the cases Of the
American steamers Cushing and Fulf-
light. The American embassy has al
ready been informed that the German
government ias no intention of sub
mitting neutral ships in the war zone,
which are guilty OF nohnostlle acts' 10
attack by submarines or aviators. On
the contrary, the German forces have
repeatedly been instructed most spec
ci6cally to avoid attacks on such
ships.
'If neutral ships in recent months
Rhave suffered trough the German sub
marine warfare, owing to mistakes in
Identification, it is question only OF
quite isolated and exceptional cases,
which can be attributed to the British
governments abuse of flags, together
with the suspicion or culpable beha-
Eior of the masters of the ships.
The German government in all
cases in which it has been shown by
its investigations that neutral ship,
not itself at fault, was damaged by

accident and, if justified by conditions,
has offered indemnifcation.
Gushing and Guflig!lt.
"The cases of the Cushing and the
GuIfight will be treated on the same
principles. An investigation of botl
cases is in progress the result of which
will presently be communicated to the
embassy. TIE investigation can, if
necessary, be supplanted by an inter
national call on the international COM
mission of inquiry as provided by ar
ticle 8 of The Hague agreement Of
October IS, 1907.
when sinking the British steamer
Falaba the commander Of the Ger
man submarine had the intention of
allowing tie passengers and crew a
full opportunity for safe escape. Only
when the master did not obey the
order to neave to, but fled and sum-
moned help by rocket signals, did the
German commander order the crew
and passengers by ignals and mega
phone to leave the ship within ten
minutes. He actually allowed them
.23 minutes time and fired the torpedo
,only when suspicious craft were Las
tening to the assistance Of the Fall
abb
Regarding the loss of life by the
,sinking of the BRITISH passenger
steamer Lusitania, the German gov
ernment has already expressed to the
neutral governments concerned its
keen regret that citizens of their states
lost their lives.
"On this occasion tie imperial gov
,ernment, however, can not escape the
that certain important facts
having direct bearing On the sinking
of the Lusitania may have escaped the
attention of the American government.
'In the interest of a clear and COM
plete understanding, which is the aim
Jof both governments, the imperial
Germany government considers it first
necessary to convince itself that the
information accessible to both govern
ments about the facts of the case is
complete and in accord. The govern
ment of the United States proceeds
on the assumption that the Lusitania
could be regarded as an ordinary un-
armed merchantmen. The imperial
government allows itself in this con-
Inection to point out that tie Lusitanla
was one of the largest British mer-
chant ships, built with government
funds as an auxiliary cruiser and car
ried expressly as such in the navy
,list' issued by the British admiralty.
'It is further known to the impe-
rial government from trustworthy re-
ports from its agents and, neutral pas
.sengers, that for a considerable time
practically all the more valuable Brit
ish merchantmen Lave been equipped
with cannon and ammunition and 9TH
er weapons and manned with persons
who have been specially trained in
serving guns. The Lusitania, too, ac-
cording to information received here,
had cannon aboard, which were mount
ed and CONCEALED below decks.
"The imperial government, further,
has the honor to direct TIE particular
attention of the American govern
ment to the fact that the British ad-
miralty in confidential instruction is
sued in February, 1915, recommended
its mercantile shipping not only to
seek protection under neutral flags,
but also, while disguised to attack

GERMAN AND FRENCH TROOPS
BATTLE For A CALF

Berlin, Ger, Jan. 29.-In the neigh
borhood of B., in France, the trenches
of the Germans and the French are
about 500 yards apart. One day a calf
appeared between the fighting lines.
Firing Immediately ceased, for both
sides were anxious to capture the calf.
Both the French and the Germans tried
their best to coax the calf to come
over to their respective side but with
out success. The calf. nosing around
for something to eat kept away from
both trenches.
Finally one of the German soldiers
made up his mind to capture that roast
OF veal even if it should cost his life.
He decorated a steel shield with some
branches Of pine trees and showing the
shield in front Of him, slowly crept
nearer to the calf The soldier sue
ceeded in throwing a moose over the
calfs head and started to creep back.
With one hand he pulled the shield
back, with the other the calf.
When the French saw this vancouver
they commenced to fire and soon the
calf, pierced by many bullets, gave up
the ghost. But the German soldier in
the meantime. haS reached his trench,
and with the help of his comrades sue
ceeded in pulling the dead calf into a
place of safety.
They had roast veal in that particu-
Tar trench that evening.
