u. S. CASE ON SINKING
OF w. P. FRYE IS READY
Germany May Settle for Steamer
Following Notes Presentation-Page
Will Discuss WiIhelmina Case.

The State Department has made up its
case for presentation to the German gov
eminent demanding indemnity for the
destruction of the William =. Frye and
cargo. II is likely that the statement
will be cabled within the next twenty
four hours.
One of the officials interested said there
We're two questions of fact which this
government had resolved in favor of the
vessel. One was that she was not going
to fortified place in England. and. sec
ond. that the goods We're not for enemy
destination'-that is. they were not, so
far as the records show to get into the
hands of the British government.
1t IL recognized this official said.
that the burden of proof ia on the own
ers of the William p. Frye. but the proof
is ample and We expect a prompt dis
position of the matter in our favor. even
IL the case should be referred to a Ger
man prize court"
The case of the Wilhelmina is still
dragging in the prize court at Lon
don. Former Senator Charles A. Towne
announced there will be a meeting to-
day in London between Ambassador
Page and the representatives of the
Wilhelmina. after which some an
nouncement of the future of the ves-
sci and her cargo might be made.

The petition for a rehearinG was
