NEW YORK. July 12.-(Special.) }
This city today faced the prospect
of having the largest strike Of Jew.
ish workers that has ever taken
place in any trade in any city in
the world. According to their bust.
ness agent, 5000 pants workers will
90 on strike some time today, and
1t is expected that strikes will al
once follow among $4,000 chill.
dren's jacket makers, $4,000 coat
tailors, and $4,000 vest makers and
thousands of overcoat and sack coat
makers. Abraham Miller. secretary
Of the New York district council oi
the Amalgamated Clothing Workers
Of America, said the various bodies
would be called out as soon as they
could decide upon the order IN
which they should quit work.
A statement issued by one OF the
central bodies asserted that what
the clothing workers had gained by
their general strike in 1913 had been
lost. and that conditions we're now
worse than before. II is said the
desire of the masses in the union
trade to inaugurate a strike, had
been increased by the prosecution
of the Hebrew labor unions and the
great anxiety upon the part Of some
Of the officials to have some OF these
leaders sent to the. electric chair
and others to state prison.
President Benjamin Schlessinger
Of the International Ladies' Garment
Workers union. said that prepara
tions were being made by the manu-
facturers in his line for a strike
just as II Mayor Mitchell had not
named a board Of conciliation. He
said many OF the factory owners ap.
parently wanted strike. II the
cloakmakers struck, following 80
closely upon the strike beginning
today OF $4,000 clothing workers, it
would mean a strike participated in
by 100000 Jewish operatives.
II this takes place, IL Will have
very important influence upon the
politics OF New York city. Jewish
labor leaders have for the past few
months been making addresses TO
their followers every Saturday aft
ernoon in which they have told how
by their votes they can oppose the
reelection. OF those officials who
they believe are siding with the en-.
emies of unionism.

WASHINGTON. July i2.-lSpe.
ciaD--Secretary OF State Robert
Lansing will not leave Tor Cornish.
y. H., today to confer with the pres
ident, as nad been expected. In
siead. II II said ne will take several
days 10 digest the taxi OF the Ger
man note and draft an outline Of
what he thinks the American reply
should be. In the meantime, the
president. in the quiet and seclusion
Of the summer White House, will do
the same thing, and when Lansing
1nally does join him. the two men
Will compare notes and the actual
work of drafting the reply. which
will afterwards be discussed az the
cabinet, will be begun
IL is not believed the reply will go
forward before week elapses. Count
Bcrnstorff. the German ambassador,
who came on from his summer home
AZ Cedarhurst. l.. l.. will remain here
for some time so as TO be In close
touch with the administration. IL
Is thought here this Is for the pur-
pose OF stating TO the administratio
that Germany does not want war
with the United States and she will
be glad TO continue amicable discus
sions.
II Is also stated that President
Wilson will discountenance anything
that smacks OF the secret diplomacy
that is the curse OF Europe. He will
insist upon all moves between the
two governments being in written
form and spread upon the record for
the Americans and all the world to
read The impression prevails here
that the administration will tell Ger
many II cannot accept the proposals
for the future conduct Of Americans
upon the high seas and that pro-
test will once more be made because
OF Germanys second failure to disa-
vow the sinking OF the Lusitania with
the loss of more than 1000 lives.
While the situation Is admittedly
grave. the feeling here today Is that
the president will nnd some way to
keep this country out OF war unless
Germany, by some drastic act, such
as sinking other vessels, and drown
ing Americans on board, sets this
country into a blaze OF resentment.
A careful watch is kept on the press
and the almost unanimous support OF
the president by the newspapers has
been especially pleasing to those on
duty here. while the president Ii
