JAPANESE SHIP AsAMA

ADMIRAL HOWARD ON WAY
Washington Officials Reticent in Dis
GUESSING International Phases OF
Case-Situntion More Complicated

WASHINGTON. February 6.-The
japanese cruiser Asama. aground in
Turtle Bay. near Port Bartolomo.
Lower California, lis in no immediate
danger" according to r. report to the
Navy Department to-day from Rear
Admiral Howard, commanding the Pa
cihc Fleet,
Admiral Howard was due to reach
the Asama to-day on the cruiser San
Diego. His report was based on n
radioEram from the cruiser Raleigh.
which already had reached the strand
cd ship.
The Navy Department summarized
official reports in this statement:
admiral Howard has wired from the
United States ship San Diego that
the Raleigh reports the Japanese
cruiser Asama is aground on an un-
charted shoal. He says there is no
immediate danger. Admiral Howard
should arrive on the scene on board the
San Diego to-day"
officials were rcticent in discussing
tho international phases OF the case
arising from the fact that warships
OF the United States, a neutral nation,
arc aiding the armed forces OF bel
ligerent nation in waters foreign to
the United States The situation. 1t
was said, was unique In international
law. The shoal upon which the Asama
is grounded is believed to be within
the territorial waters of Mexico
DICTATES OF HUMANITY
PERMIT THE RESCUE
OfSoial opinion inclined 10 the view
that the most the American vessels
could do was TO take the officers and
Grew OFF the ship. The dictates of
humanity, It was pointed out. as In
terpreted by international law, permit
the rescue OF belligerent personnel by
neutrals. but would not allow the
American craft to assist in relocating
the vessel
From Admiral Towards dispatch Of
ficials assume that the crew of the
Asama is still aboard her. Should they
have landed on Mexican soil, however,
as unofficial reports indicate the situa-
tton would become more complicated
IN that event the opinion was expressed
that the sailors could scarcely be
brought away from Mexico Should
they be taken on American vessels
technically American soil. II is taken
for granted they will be brought to
the United States for internmcnt during
the war, and that the Asama will be
left to whatever fate may befall her
