Fire on Steamer Minnehaha Under
COntrOl-Suspect Hollis Hand.

New York, July S.-While the steam
ship Minnehaha, afre at sea with 15,-
600 tons of war munitions aboard, was
speeding to Halifax, N. S., tonight,
Atlantic Transport officials and au-
thorities here were bending every eff
fort to learn if the blaze could nave
been the work of Frank Holt, assailant
of J. P. Morgan, who had given warn
ing that steamship would sink in
midocean July 7.
The Minnehaha is due to reach Hal
flax tomorrow morning. Capt Claret's
last message said the fire was under
control. 1t started yesterday from an
explosion in a forward hold far away
from the ammunition Line officials
here believe that Capt. Claret picked
up the wireless sent to all ships and
had caused a search to be made to
ascertain if there were any bombs
aboard.
THE fact that no further word was
received tonight at the Offices of the
Atlantic Transport line was taken to
indicate that the ship was making good
progress.
The Minnehaha left here July for
London. She carried no passengers
Her crew numbered nearly 100.
The possible fate of the Minnelaha
overshadowed all other Developments
in the case of the man who set off the
capital bomb, then shot J. P. Morgan
and finally committed suicide.

plices because Of the large amount OF
money he was supposed to have spent

CONFIRMS IMPRESSIONS
REGARDING THE ANSWER

Washington, July Carnival tonight
of a press translation of the German
reply to tie United States submarine
note confirmed impressions current
in official quarters for several days
that Germany would refuse to give
assurances asked by the United States
that the lives of Americans travelling
tie high seas on unarmed ships Of
any nationality be not endangered.
The press copy arrived 200 late to
be read by many officials and those
who saw it said they could not COM
ment until tie official text arrived.
This probably will reach here late to-
morrow or Sunday and President Will
son, it is understood, will start back
for Washington to communicate with
his cabinet as soon as word is sent
him that it is here.
The apparent restrictions placed by
Germany on the use of American pas
senger ships, which it seems are to
be given com olete immunity from in
reference only if they do not carry
oontraband, was regarded in many
quarters as adding another to many
issues which have arisen over sub
marine warfare.
Assumption of liability for the loss
of Americans in the Lusitania tragedy
was considered to have been wholly
evaded by Germany and the chief prin-
cipIe for which the United States an
nounced that it would omit mo word
or act" to see observed was viewed as
having been lightly passed over.
The general feeling that the no.e
would lie unsatisfactory and bring to
crisis the friendly relations that have
existed between the United States and
Germany developed more strongly in
oficia, quarters as news of tie con-
tenta of the note spread. For sew
era; days tension has been renewed
but officials have inclined to manifest
their displeasure or apprehension over
the situation, believing that nothing
could be done or said until the Off
cial version of the German reply was
at hand
What 1!e course of the United
States will be is problematical. Many
of chose in official quarters familiar
with Germany's proposals as outlined
by Ambassador Gerard in the last few
days are in favor of an emphatic as
sertion by the American government
that it intends to exercise the rights
which it holds under international law,
placing upon Germany the response
bility for any future violation tat may
cause breach in friendly relations.
Persons conversant with diplomatic
precedents in the framing of notes be-
lieved the next step of necessity would
be an advance in the position of the
United States, for, having asked for
assurances and failed to receive them,
the field for further negotiations had
been considerably narrowed and now
required some assertion of rights.

England to Blame.

England to Blame.
con November 5, 1914, England de-
clared the North Sea war area and
by planting poorly anchored mines
and by tie stoppage and capture OF
vessels made passage extremely dan
gerous and difficult for neutral ship
ping, so (by) that actually blockad-
ing neutral coasts and ports contrary
to all international law. Long before
the beginning of submarine war Eng
land practically completely intercept
ed legitimate neutral navigation to
Germany also. Thus Germany was
driven to submarine war on trade.
On November IA, 1914, the English
premier declared in the house of COM
mons that it was one of England's
principal tasks to prevent food for
the German population from reaching
Germany via neutral ports Since March
1, England has been taking from neu-
trail ships without further formality
all merchandise proceeding to Ger
many, as well as all merchandise
coming from Germany, even with neu-
trail property. Just as it was also
with the Beers, the German people is
now to be given the choice of perish
ing from starvation with its women
and children or of relinquishing it's
independence.
'While our enemies thus loudly and
openly proclaim without mercy our
utter destruction, we were conducting
war in self-defense for our national
existence and for the sake of peace
of an assured permanency. We have
been obliged to adopt submarine
warfare to meet TIE declared intentions
of our enemies and the methods of
warfare adopted by them in contra
Vention of international law.
"Might Suffer"-and Did.
with all its efforts in principle TO
protect neutral life and property from
damage as much as possible, the Ger
man government recognized unreserv-

Captain A. D. Williams came into

Bob Smith, Jack Larson and Ed Stat

eral men who spent the winter across
the divide on the Kuskokwim had not
heard Of the conflict.
Last fall a few men came down the
Porcupine from the Arctic divide, and
people on the Yukon thought it great
joke when it was learned that the men
from the rim of the pole had remained
in total ignorance Of the belligerent
state Of Europe until reaching the big

Japanese Government Has Thrown
1000 HottIss Overheard.

Seattle, Wash.-1n an effort to de-

Pacific ocean the Japanese government
has thrown 1000 bottles overheard In
q large area south and east Of japan.
The first was dropped on May 30 and
the last on June 80.
Each bottle contained request in
eleven languages that it be returned
to the Imperial Fisheries institute at
Tokyo with exact Information as to
the time and place it is picked up.
According to local mariners, many
Of these bottles will get into Puget
sound and some into the gulf OF Low
err California. In recent years large
quantities Of wood, both trees and lum-
Der, from Japan, Siberia and the Phil
ippines have been picked up on Puget
sound shores. 1t is believed by many
seafaring men that the current from
Off the Japan and China coast returns
to the orient after great circuit
through the Pacific as far south as the
Hawaiian group.
A substantial reward is offered to
the finder Of each bottle.

States and northern Europe dressed as
man Edna Puffer, eighteen years
old, was arrested in New Haven, Conn.
Miss Puffer says she has worn male
costume for five years. William Shaw,
her travelling companion for some time,
was dumfounded when he learned of
her sex.
She told Judge Booth she had cooked
in Mexican ranch and had been n

when twelve years old, she said, and
assumed male attire for protection in
travelling. Her father had Indian blood,
and her mother was English. Both died
before she was seven years old.
