Washington.-In announcing the re.

the American note Of March 30, which
protested against the British order of
council and French decree of similar
contents, Secretary Lansing stated
that the dispatch OF another note to

been under consideration for several

latest communication from London
was thoroughly studied

Washington. July 27.-Destruction
of the American ship Leelanaw by .
German submarine drew sharply to
the attention OF officials Of the U. g.
government the fact that Germany
was insisting ON her own inter
probation of the PrussiAn-American
treaty Of 1928 in disregard Of two
American notes ON the subject.
In three instances Of American
ships destroyed or damaged-the Gulf
light. the Nebraskan and the William
p. Frye-Germany has agreed to pay
damages-and in the last case the
Berlin government took the position
that 1t had not violated the treaty Of
1928 but had exercised right given
by inference from the language Of the
pact. q
Messages from American Consul
Dennison at Dundee, Scotland. and
Consul General Skinner at London.
telling Of the torpedoing and sinking
of the Leelanaw were received at the
State Department. The messages said
all the crew were saved and landed
ut Kirkwall.
Consul Dennison's message said:
American steamer Leelanaw OF
New York, from Archangel to Belfast
with flax. torpedoed and sunk by
German submarine, July Is. Whole
crew landed ut Kirkwall, in their own
boats, Have instructed the consular
agent to send them to Dundee imme-
diately."
Consul General SINNERS message
was almost Identical. iii
A dispatch from Kirkwall to tho
Central News agency says that after
the members of the crew left the Lee
lanaw about dozen shots were fired
ut the steamer. They failed to sink
her. however, and she ultimately was
sent to the bottom by . torpedo The
members Of the crew were taken
aboard the submarine. the dispatch
adds, and were we'll treated. When in
sight Of the Orkney Islands the men
were ordered to return to their boats,
and the submarine disappeared.
The episode has created widespread
discussion in England, coming, as It
did, almost coincidental with the de-
livery Of the American note to Ger
many.
Only meagre accounts of the de-
struction of the Leelanaw have been
received but 1t Is clear that the sub
marine gave the commander of the
steamer ample warning. even permit
ting the crew to collect part of their
effects before taking them aboard the
underwater craft, which then. through
the combined use Of shell fire and
torpedo, sent the vessel to the bottom.

CANNOT GIVE REBATES
RESOLUTION FoR0IDs EVASION
or INSURANCE RATES.
Industrial Commission Declares Re.
bates, Refunds and Participating
Endorsements Unlawful.

Denver.-An important regulation
affecting the new workmen's compen-
sation insurance in Colorado has been
made through . set Of resolutions
passed by the State Industrial Com.
mission forbidding all profit-sharins
and refunds by any privately oper-
ated companies who issue compensa-
ton insurance policies. The resolu-
tions as passed are as follows:
Whereas. In order that the insur-
ance OF compensation liability Of en-
ployers may be made safe to employees.
the workmen's compensation act has
imposed upon the Industrial commits
sion Of Colorado. the duty to approve
the minimum basic and schedule rates
at which insurance companies may do
the business OF workmen's compensa-
ton insurance in this state. none Of
which rates are to take effect unless
approved by the commission as ade
quate, and
Whereas. This commission on the
9Th day OF July. 1915, approved the
minimum basic and schedule rates at
which any company could do q COM
pensation insurance business in this
state, and
Whereas, 1t was the intention by
such approval to exclude refunds and
rebates and participating plans Of
any and all kinds. now therefore
BE It resolved, That any and all
refunds, rebates and any and all par
ticipating endorsements or any plans
whereby the insurance carrier ut the
time Of writing the insurance creates
or attempts to create against itself
an obligation, either absolute or con-
tingent. to refund or give to the as
sured employer any sum Of money or
other consideration, or to permit the
assured employer to share in any
division Of money or other thing Of
value, at any subsequent time, would
be incompatible with the approval Of
rates which this commission has
made. and would be an unlawful de-
parture therefrom."
