GERMANS DISAVOW ACT
BERLIN FOREIGN OFFICE SAYS
LINER HIT MINE.
Government in Note to Gerard Says
No Submarine Was in the Vicln-
ty of the Disaster.

Berlin, Sept. 16.-"The German dec
laration that passenger ships will not
be torpedoed without warning unless
they try to escape when summoned to
stop, or 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:
LAS for the Arabic case, there
seems to be merely a difference of
opinion about facts, which does not
affect the aforementioned principle" "
The German government, in a note
to Ambassador Gerard, made a quail
fled 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 German submarine.
The communication is a prelimi-
nary note, which may be supplement-
ed when all the facts in connection
with the Hesperian incident are es-
tablished definitely. The German gov
ernment states that, on the basis of
the information thus far obtained, the
theory that the Hesperian was sunk
by German submarine apparently
may be abandoned absolutely.
1t is said 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 vio-
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
mine.

Products Owned by American Packers
Are Declared Forfeited to the

90 Companies Lose Big Claims.

London, Sept. 1S.-Chicago packers
were defeated in the British prize court
when that tribunal handed down a de-
cision on Thursday confiscating to the
crown large American cargoes taken
from merchantmen. The prize court
held that these cargoes we're ultimate
ly destined for Germany, to be used by
that country for her army and navy.
The firms whose contentious were
oVerruled by the court we're Armour
& Co., Swift & Co., Nelson Morris &
Co. and the Schwartzschild-S -Sulzberger
company.
At the conclusion of its decision the
court granted leave to appeal, provid.
ed $25,OOO security was posted as Sc.
curity for the costs of further pro
ceedings.
The judgment was delivered by Sir
Samuel t. Evans, president Of the
court. 1t involves the cargoes of the
Norwegian steamships Kim, Alfred
Nobel, Bjornstjerne-Bjornso and Frid
land.
All the goods on these vessels, con
sisting principally of American meat
products, are confiscated, with the ex
ception of a small portion which the
! court released to claimants.
The case has been pending for sew
eral months. The steamships were
seized late last November, and al
though efforts were made by the Amer,
lean owners to obtain an early trial
the British authorities set the hear
ing for June.
In lengthy judgment Sir Samuel
said it was plain these ships were car
rying toward Copenhagen, when cap
tured, more than thirteen times the
amount of goods which under normal
circumstances would have been taken
to that port.
That fact gave practical and over
whelming assurance that the goods
were intended to find their way to
Germany, although, of course, it did
not prove conclusively that they
were destined for an enemy of Great
Britain.
The meat cargoes, shipped for the
most part by the great American pack
ing companies and valued by them at
$15,000,000, we're found by the presi
dent to be destined, except for some
small items, not for consumption in
Denmark, but for delivery in Germany
He held that their eventual destina
tion was the German government, for
the use of it's naval and military
forces. To rule otherwise, Sir Sem
uel said, would be to allow ones eyes
to be blinded by theories and techni
| calities.

u. S HITS BRITAIN
WILSON AND LANSING COMPLETE
NOTE TO ENeLAND-sEA
POLICY UNFRIENoLY.
CALL SHIP SEIZURE ILLEGAL
Persistent Oppression Of American
Commerce and Blockade of Neutral
Ports is Denounced in Latest Mes
sage as Unjustified 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-
citically every one of the justitications
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 un-
friendly.
That Great Britain acted illegally
when she took cases of seizure and de-
tention out of the domain of diplomacy
and made them merely matters for
the British prize courts.
That the argument by Great Britain
for such action is indefensible, because
1t is based on the orGer in council,
which is itself in 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.
1t is stated that there is in the note
no suggestion of an ultimatum or a de-
mand for a definite answer from
Great Britain within any specified
time.
