SINKING OF THE
ARMENIAN.

The lingo papers OF the oh''e'
States have been printing in big type
and with handbill headlines accounts
Of the sinking of the steamer Ar
menian by German submarine, -
usual. they have gone ott-cockeo '''"
before the actual facts were obtained.
It now seems that the steamer at
+en,nted TO run from the submarine
and that the commander of the Ger
man boat did not violate any inter
national law when he sunk the snip
with it's contrahand cargo. Inc cap"
tain of the Armenian in his statement
makes it clear that the United States
has no case against Germany II IN
the attempt of the steamer TO get
away and land its cargo some ne
croes from the United States lost
their lives.
There is every reason to believe
Germany is endeavoring TO AVOID
trouble with neutral nations ana
especially with the United States,
and that no more horrors akin u"
that of the Lusitania arc to be OK
pectcd during her submarine war
fare. The Baltimore Sun in speak
ing of the sinking Of the Armenian
says:
Late cables concerning the sink
ing of the Armenian seem to Indicate
that the German submarine observed
all the rules of war in it's attack.
According to the stories of surviv-
ors, the Armenian's captain when Or
dered to stop attempted to escape
and called for help by wireless. Inc
U-38 then fired several times across
the vessels bows, and as she still re-
fused to surrender finally fired into
her. Not until the Armenian was IN
a sinking condition did Captain
Trickey abandon his attempt to get
away. If these stories arc true, 1t
would appear that the United States
has nothing on which to base COM
plant concerning the death Of the
Americans citizens on board, especial
ly as it has been admitted that the
Armenian was a British Government
transport carrying no passengers ana
had cargo Of contraband. The
fact that the U-3S took the trouble
to observe the rules Of maritime
warfare in this case is a very nccour-
aging feature, and seems to show Il
disposition on the part Of Germany
not to repeat any such horrors as
those of the Lusitania and the faia-
ba. It augers we'll for the safety OF
Americans on the seas and the likell-
hood that the United States will not
be forced into an ultimatum 20
Germany, for which all lovers Of
peace in this country will be duly
thankful"

ANNIVERSARY OF
ASSASSINATION.

Tempus fugit-"time fies"-is ar
old saying. Many now living can
hardly realize that over third OF
a century has elapsed since a fana-
tic known as Charles Guiteau con-
ceived the idea of numbering Presi.
dent James A. Garfield in the old
Sixth street depot in Washington.
The murderer pretended that ne was
urged by a power higher than him.
self to shoot the President IN order
to bring about reconciliation OF re-
publican party leaders, rupture
having occurred after the appoint
ment of a man named Robertson as
collector of the port of New 1ork.
Senators Conkling mad Platt had re-
signed after having been ignored by
the President in the selection OF a
man for this important position. IT,
however. seemed clear to many WHO
made a study of the criminal that MS
real object in killing the frcSl-
dent was to get his name In history
His wife, who knew him better than
anv one else, said he had a mania Tor
notoriety.
President Garfield appeared at the
waiting room at the Sixth street de-
not on the morning of July z, lSeI'
Guiteau was on hand, and after
snealzing about the depot for a short
time he entered the waiting room ana
discharged bulldog pistol at the un-
suspectinc victim. The ball struck the
President in the abdominal region
and he fell. Guitcau fired anotne'
shot which went wild. The assassin
made no attempt to escape and was
arrested. The President was plckeo
nm and hurried to the White House
and there seemed to be a chance OF
his ultimate recovery.
He was at first attended by Df'
bliss. a local physician, but later d
disnute arose between the medica'
attendants. The President was soon
threatened with pyamia, and 1t was
decided to remove him to the ne"
Jersey coast, away from the depres-
.;rn boat Of Washington. The Presl-
dent however, grew weaker and on
the 10Th of September died.
The subsequent trial of the mpF-
derer was sensational. Gulteau poseo
as a lawyer and he attempted to run
Tho court, becoming at times so dis
orderly that it was thought 1t woul'
be necessary to remove the accuse"
f,oro tho court room. He was tinal-
" sentenced to be hanged, but he was
kept in Jail long time before the
rope was put around his neck. In the
meantime Guiteau lived in the nope
that he would be pronounced irres-
ponsible and that ne would esca'c
vs.. When he was about u
ID the murderer uttered dire
against all who had had
do with his trial and con-
x,,.,,,u, asserting that heaven would
ayenge his death by holding the coun-
try responsible for the Outrage.
1t was stated some time ago IN
the Gazette that well-known Alex
audian was present at the three as
sassinations Of Presidents OF the
limited States. Mr.. Peter AltcheSoh
was in Ford's Theatre in Washing
ton when Both shot Lincoln. tic was
also in the railway station when
