Berlin sidesteps Demands of
Wilson for Disavowal
of the Act.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Although
Germany's new note on the Arabic
easejisin not entirely satisfactory TO the
United States the situation is not con.
sidered critical at this time. This was
stated today on high official authority.
The view held by President Wilson
and State Department officials on the
note handed 10 Secretary Lansing in
New York Saturday by Count Won
Bornstorff, the German ambassador,
Is that 1t was not specific enough on
the points insisted on by the Presi.
dent. ~
These are disayowal of sinking as
surances that the act would not be
repeated and proper reparation.
President Wilson has taken the po.
sition that the United States cannot
arbitrate questions involving the loss
OF American lives and 1t is believed
that inSthe next step the Washington
government will indicate that the
only matter II can submit to arbitra.
ton Is the amount OF the damages to
be paid after the question OF liability
itself already is admitted.
The fact that the negotiations are
being conducted without publication
OF the texts OF the notes, messages or
rietnorando that are passing between
the two governments is considered by
high officials an important factor, for
II permits OF frank discussion OF the
points atsissue.
There were rumors that Count Won
Bernstortf was preparing to supple
ment the note he left with Secretary
Lansing Il he found that 1t did not sat.
isfy the American government. This
could not be confirmed here on ac.
count OF the absence OF the ambassa.
dor.
TheyArabic case has completely sub.
ordinated other cases that previously
had arisen between the United States
and Germany over submarine warfare,
and II has been known to Germany
that the American government is look.
Ing upon the Arabic negotiations as a
test OF good faith. The fact that no
American lives have been lost recent.
" has encouraged officials TO believe
that more care is being exercised and
that Germany is desirous Of avoiding a
break and, on this officials are basing
their hopes that in subsequent nego,
tiations the Berlin foreign office will
adjust amicabiy the question OF re.
paration for lives lost.

before a no-hit game was played. In 1880 Pitcher Richmond, of the wor- chester club, then in the National League, pitcher a game against C1eve- land in which his opponents were not only held hitless, but in which not man of the Clevelands perched on first Richmond had previously per- formed this feat twice ins the, pre- ceding year. Tn june, 1880, John. M. Ward, then on the slab for the, Prov idence National Leaguers, got into the baseball hall of fame in a game in which not single Buffalo player reached the initial bag. Corcoran of Chicago and Calvin, then with Buffalo. also pitched no-hit contests that year.
 There were no more no-Iit games in the National League until 1882, when Mullane and Hecker, of Louis- vilie. and got into the limelight. and
 Ccrcoran of Chicago repeated his 1880
 feat. Radbourne and Daley, of Prov
 idence and Chicago, respectively, were
 the no-hit heroes of 1883. Corcoran
 twirled his third no-hit game in 1884,
 end Calvin of Buffalo also repeated.
 Morris and Mountain of Columbus,
 Atkissen of the Athletics and McKeon
 of Indianapolis, also got no-it honors
 that annum Atkissen repeated in
 1886.
 Among those who pitched two or more eno-hit games in subsequent
 years were Terry of Brooklyn, in 1886 and 1sSs Breitenstein or Louisville. ls91. and Cincinati, 1898: Thornton of Chicago, twice in 1898; "Cy" Young, for Cleveland in 1897; TOT Boston. 1904 and 1903. and Mathewson of
 New York, 1901 and 1905.
 Tn 1904 "Cy'' Young pitched a no-hit game for Boston agaiost the Athle- i tics in which not a man reached the initiai base--tI1e first time this stunt had been pulled off in major league company for forteen years. Joss of Cleveland, performed a similar feat against Chicago in 1902.
 ! Since 1880 there have been an ayer- l age of about two no-hit games in the 1 major circuits each year. The banner l year was 1908, when Young of Bos- l ton, Wiltse of New York, Rucker of i Brooklyn, Smith of Chicago, and Joss and Rhoades of Cleveland, all pulled l this stellar stunt.
 Considering all the chances 8 pitc- ] her has for spilling the beans, mo- :: hit game is a truly wonderful per- formance, and a contest In which no ! player reaches first is to be classed as just one degree lower than a miracle.

 The first no-hit game in which not a man reached first-often called the first no-lit game in baseball history
 was played at Iona, M1ch., in Aug ,lst. 1876, more than year after Me- TIory's feat. The contesting clubs were the St. Louis Reds and the Cass team of Detroit. James Calvin, of the Reds, was the hero of that occasion and the first professional pitcher tc twirl a hitless game.
