man government with regard to its
announcement of war zone and the
use Of submarines against merchant
men on the high seas-the principle
that the high seas are free, that the
character and cargo of a merchantmen
must first be ascertained before she
can lawfully be seized or destroyed
and that the lives of noncombatants
may in no case be put in jeopardy un-
less the vessel resists or seeks to es-
cape after being summoned to submit

of retaliation is per Sc an act beyond
the law, and the defense of an act as
retailatory is an admission that it is
illegal.
Methods of Other Nations Irrelevant
The government of the United Stat
es is, however, keenly disappointed to
find that the imperial German gov
ernment regards itself as in large de-
gree exempt from the obligation to
observe these principles, even where
neutral vessels are concernd, by what
it believes the policy and practice of
be in the present war with regard to
neutral commerce. The imperial Ger
man government will readily under
stand that the government Of the
United States cannot discuss the pol
icy of the government Of Great Brit
ian with regard to neutral trade ex-
cept with the government itself, and
that it must regard the conduct of
other belligerent governments as ir-
relevant to any discussion with the
imperial German government of what
this government regards as grave and
unjustifiable violations of the rights
Of American citizens by German naval
commanders.
Humanity Demands Suspension of
Practice
illegal and inhuman acts, however
justifable they may be thought to be
against an enemy who is believed to
have acted in contravention of law and
humanity, are manifestly indefensible
when they deprive neutrals of their
acknowledged rights, particularly
when they violate the right to life it.

against an enemy without injuring the
lives of neutrals, as we'll as their prop
erty, humanity, as we'll as justice and
a due regard for the dignity of neutral
powers, should dictate that the prac-
tice be discontinued. If persisted in
it would in such circumstances con-
S stitute an objectionable offense
against the sovereignty of the neutral
nation affected.

Early Story of the Disaster

Chicago, July 24.-From 500 to l.
900 men, women and children were
drowned in full view Of thousands on
bridges and shore when the big steel
steamer Eastland, loaded with $500
employees of the Western Electric
company, their families and friends,
on their annual holiday, turned turtle
at her dock at the Clark street bridge
in the Chicago river shortly before 8
o'clock this morning.
For some reason not clearly en-
planned by officials of the Chicago and
St. Joseph Transportation company,
owners of the Eastland, the heavily
loaded lake liner began to list while
still tied to the dock.
As the hawsers loosened, the craft
rolled over on her side, and tloated to-
ward the middle of the river. Officers
of the crew shouted warnings, but it
was too late.
A moment later, amid the shrieks
and screams of women and children,
the shouting and cursing of men, the
Eastland turned over on her side, roll
ing heavily. Then, in the middle of
the Chicago river, was enacted a
catastrophe that promises to exceed
the Iroquois theater horror for tragic
details and bizzare setting.
For in addition to the thousands of
Chicago's o'clock business crowds
streaming from the North side across
the Rush street, Clark street and
Wells street bridges on foot, surface
cars, elevated trains and automobiles,
there was grouped along both sides Of
the river close to 10000 vitality inter
ested spectators, most of them rela-
tives and friends and acquaintance of
the victims, who had come down either
to see the people off on the big annual
junket of Michigan City, or to go or

police, fremen crews of lake boat,
hundreds of volunteers with motor
boats and launches, joined in the res

People Perched on Sides of Ship
Within few minutes the Eastland,
with hundreds of passengers perched
on her upturned side, was surrounded
by a fotilla of city fire boats, police
