SAYS HESPERIAN NOT
SUNK BY SUBMARINE
Berlin in Note to Ambassador Gerard
DisaVows Attack on Liner-Ship
Hit Mine.

Berlin, Sept. 16.-"The German dec
laration that passenger ships will not
be tOTpedoed without warning unless
they try to escape when summoned to
stop, Of offer resistance, holds good, !"
the foreign office announced on Tues
day thus confirming the statement re-
Gently made by Ambassador Bern
storff in the United States. The an
nouncement continues:
AS for the Arabic case, there
seems to be merely a difference of
opinion about facts, which does not
affect the above-mentioned principle. .
The German government, in a note
to Ambassador Gerard, made a quail
fed disclaimer of responsibility for
the sinking of the steamship Hes
perian. On the face of the evidence
thus far at hand, the government is
satisfied that the Hesperian was not
sunk by a German submarine.
The communication is a preliminary
note, which may be supplemented
when all the facts in connection with
| the HespeTian incident are established
definitely. The German government
states that, on the basis of the infor-
nation thus far obtained. the theory
that the Hesperian was sunk by a Ger
man submarine apparently may be
| abandoned absolutely.
1t is sale that official records show
/ that no submarine should have been
in the vicinity Of the Hesperian at
the time she was blown up. Further.
more, the point is made that the vic,
lence Of the explosion and the place
in which the steamship was struck,
as set forth in the accounts of the
disaster, indicate that it was due to a
mine.

us. HOLDS BRITISH
POLICY UNFRIENDLY
Wilson and Lansing Complete
New Note to England.
CALLS SHIP SEIZURE ILLEGAL
Persistent Oppression Of American
Commerce and Blockade Of Neu-
1raI Ports Is Denounced as Un-
justified by World Law.

Washington, Sept. 20.-President
wilson and Secretary Of State Ian
sing conferred at length on Friday
On the completed note OF this govern
ment to Great Britain, and on the
phases Of the controversy with Ger
many over the sinking Of the Arabic.
The points Of the new note to Great
Britain, as obtained from officials who
have had part in putting it into pres
ent form, are:
That as the United States has re-
peatedly and consistently denied spe-
cidcally every one of the justifcations
set up by Sir Edward Grey, the British
minister for foreign affairs, and Lord
Crewe, his assistant, this government
cannot fail to regard the persistent op-
preston of American commerce as IN
friendly.
That Great Britain acted Illegally
when she took cases of seizure and de-
tentiOn out of the domain of diplomacy
and made them merIy matters for the
British prize courts.
That the argument by Great Britain
for such action is indefensible, because
it is based on the order in council,
which is itself an illegal policy.
That the establishment of a block
ade under the order in council which
pretends to include neutral ports, is
not justified by international law on
the mere suspicion that neutral ports
may be made the basis for unneutral
acts.
That the contention of Great Britain
that cargoes may be seized and de-
tanned on suspicion alone, without any
assertion of reasonable proof, is absO-
lutely untenable under any form of
recognized law Of nations.
That the United States has hereto
fore given Great Britain notice that it
would not tolerate acts such as in the
packers case, which were based on
the illegal withdrawal of questions of
seizure and detention from the cate
CORY of diplomatic questions. The
United States has in fact filed its
caveat, putting Great Britain on no
tice.

ACCEPTS BERLIN's EXPLANATION

Germany Tells U. S. That Liner Hes
perian Was Not TorPedoed.
Washington, Sept. 1S.-The case Of
the Allan liner Hesperian, which was
destroyed by an explosion about two
weeks ago near Fastuet. has become
practically a closed incident at the
state department. Secretary Lansing
received the report on Thursday, and
the department is disposed to accept
the German explanation. The main
point in the admiralty report is that
the vessel could not have been de-
ctroyed by a German torpedo for the
reason that the reports from subma-
rines at the time of the accident show
that none of them was in that locality.

OFFICIALS FACE A DEFICIT
indications Are That the Receipts Win
Fall a Few Hundred Dollars Short
of Last Year-Make Plans
for 1916 Show.

NTilwaukee.-When the tents at the
state fair park had been folded and the
owners had silently moved away, the
figures of the attendance, receipts and
expenses were totaIed, and the eXhibi-
ton for 1915 was pronounced a sue
cess.
More than 10000 more persons at
tended this fair than the exhibit a year
ago. Of course more than $4,000 chill
dren were admitted free while only
5000 children saw the display last
year. But the larger number bene-
flied from the displays, which is the
real object of the fair.
Indications are that the receipts will
fall few hundred dollars short of last
years, but it was not possible to de-
termine the exact amount. The Mer-
chants and Manufacturers association
had not been heard from, but it was
unoffciaIly stated that the association
had disposed of $4,000 tickets.
1t is expected that the receipts will
total near $4,000. There will be a de-
felt of about $4,000. Officials for the
fair were confident that had the
weather given them anywhere near a
square deal on the week they would
have made money.
Already plans are being made for
1916. The fair will undoubtedly be on
a paying basis, according to the off
cials. Secretary Remey was confident
that there would have been a credit Of
several thousand dollars instead of a
deficit had the weather been fair.
