REPORTS DIFFER, SAYS BERLIN
ONE ACCOUNT OF ARABIC DlSAS-
TER TERMED NONSENSICAL.
American Citizens Are Blamed for
Disregarding Germany's Warning
AS to BeIIigerent Ships.

Berlin, by wireless to Sayville, Aug.
24.-'Naval circles call attention to q
remarkable contradiction in the English
press reports regarding the Arabic, !"
says the Overseas News agency in an
item given out for transmission.
"One report says the passengers
and crews received life belts when the
steamer entered the danger zone. This
statement is declared to be NONSENSE
cal because, it is pointed out, a vessel
leaving Liverpool is at once in the
danger zone.
Intended to Ram Submarine?
However, the distribution Of life
belts, it is argued, admits of the con-
clusion that the steamers captain
obeying admiralty orders and spurred
on by a high money reward, intended
to ram the submarine as soon as it
was sighted.
"Other reports state explicitly tt 1T
no submarine or torpedo was sighted
permitting an assumption that the ship
struck a loose mine, all this showing
the necessity for awaiting the official

says:
u. S. Disregards Warnings.
eff it is true that a German sub
marine destroyed the Arabic and
American citizens thereby were acct
dentally drowned, this is a fresh justi-
fication of German warnings to for
eigners not to enter the war zone on
board British ships and of Germany's
advice that they use neutral ships in
stead.
"It is extremely regrettable,' the
Tages Zeitung adds, that the United
States has entirely disregarded Ger
many's warnings and tried by threats
to cause Germany to give up subma-
rine warfare, which is an impossible
ity. This doubtless is the unanimous
sentiment of the German nation

French Sink German Destroyer.

Paris, Aug. 24.-French torpedo
boats of the second light squadron
sank German destroyer off Ostend,
the admiralty announces. The enc
my destroyer is believed to have
emerged from Zeebrugge, a rendezvous
for German submarines operating in
the North sea. 1t is believed to have
made it's way southwark from the base
of the main German feet. The engage
ment off Ostend is the first fight in
this portion of the North sea in several
months. The French warships re-
turned unchanged.

Bull GARIA AND TURKEY AGREE
Sign New Treaty, Sultan Granting
BuIgar's Desired Railroad Con-
nection with the Sea.

London, Aug. PA report given
out at Berlin by the Overseas News
agency states:
Unofficial reports late in July stated
that convention had been signed on
July %, by which Turkey ceded to
Bulgaria the Turkish portion of the
Dedeagbatch railway. The reports
stated that the treaty left Bulgaria
unpledged concerning her attitude in
the war.
That Bulgaria has not been pledged
to any definite course as regards the
war. has been the assumption under
which negotiations have been conduct
ed by the Entente Allies looking to a
satisfaction of her reported demands
for territorial concessions from Serbia
and Greece as the price for her entry
into the war on the side of the Allies.
official reports from Sofa and Con.
stantinople state that Turkey and Bull
garia have signed new treaty. Tur-
key granting Bulgaria her desired d.
rect railroad connection with the sea
and Bulgaria agreeing to observe a
benevolent neutrality"
The Balkan situation reached the
acute stage. Serbia was expected to
make known at once whether she will
cede Macedonia to Bulgaria.
