ADRIATIC WARNING
CHAGRINS GERMANS
They Believe Announcement
Will Impel British to Send
BattleShip Convoy.

The exclusive announcement made in
yesterdays Tribune that the White
Star liner Adriatic had been marked
Cor a German submarine attack owing
20 the munitions of war and the high
British perSonages who are on board
was resented in British as well as in
German circles. 1t caused a food OF
inquiries at the local Offices Of the
" hite Star Line from anxious friends
and relatives Of the 400 passengers
aboard the vessel. To all inquiries Of
f'cals of the steamship company re-
flied that there was no reason for
anxiety. as the Adriatic was quite safe.
The publication of the impending at
tack upon the contraband laden British
steamship was resented by local Ger
mans owing to the certainty that the
Adriatic would be warned by local
British agents and that a submarine
attack might be thwsrted by a convoy
of British bsttleships.
German officials here were plainly
chagrlned at the premature puDIlChtioH
If the plans which the German Ad-
miralty Is said to have made regarding
the Adriatic. On the riverfront in Ho-
oxen, where fourteen crack German
Messenger ships are tied up, tie fate
cf the Adriatic was the subject Of live
ly discussion.
"a layman has no idea about the
terrible effectiveness Of Germany's
Iewest submarines" said grizzled old
sea captain. an my estimation they
ore far more powerful than any super
d-eadnought that was ever built"
Odds of 2 TO were offered in Wall
Street in favor of the safe arrival of
the Adriatic in Liverpool. No bets
we're reported negotiated at these odds,
however. Even money was offered that
the big ship would not sight German
submarine on her voyage.
Despite this local Germans who pre-
dicted the sinking Of the Lusitania in
April were firm in their declaration
yesterday that big things are to be
expected N the activities of the new
6O0-foot German submarines which
are now reported as operating in the
war zone around the British Isles.

Heinz Hsrdenberg. held at the Tombs

Heinz Hsrdenberg, held at the Tomos
as a material witness in the Lusitania
affidavit case, was aided by his Irish
fancee, a passenger on the ll-fated
liner, TO gain admittance TO the ship
the day she sailed. Under pretence Of
affection for her. he searched the
Cunarder for the guns she did not
carry. Then he let the blue eyed, dainty
~irl who loved him sail away 20 what
he knew was certain death.
The former roommate of Gustav
Stahl told this story to william Counts,
Chief United States Deputy Marshal,
who brought him from Cincinnati 10
New York. He told the story calmly
and apparently with no appreciation of
the tragedy it contained.
She was rare Irish beauty" he
said complacently. From the day he
met her, she had seemed to care for
him. They grew very close to each
other in the time they spent together
before she engaged passage on the
liner.
Hardenberg knew of her intention
TO 90 back home, but had no idea that
she contemplated making the voyage
on the Lusitania. When she told him,
it was too late, he explained to the
marshal. His duty 70 his country for
babe his warning her and his acquaint-
ance with her was bound to be useful
in getting him aboard the vessel.
The German government wanted in
formation about the Lusitan!a, and
Hardenberg was willing TO use his
sweetheart, who he was letting sail

Wife and Son at Bedside
of EX-DiCtatOr When
End Comes.
DEATH DUE TO
AGE INFlRMlTY
Health Failed After Severe At
tack of Grip-No Date
for Funeral.

Paris, July General Porfrio Diaz,
ex-President of Mexico, died at Z
o'clock tonight.
General Diaz's wife, Sonora Carmen
Romeo RIbio Diaz. and their son,
Porifrio Diaz, jr., and the latter's wife
were at the bedside when the end came.
About three weeks ago General Diaz
began 20 fail rapidly, and while his
death was not unexpected, owing to his
advanced age and recent failing health
the crisis came suddenly this after
noon. Porfric Diaz, jr., and his wife
were hastily summoned, and arrived at
the bedside only few minutes before
the end, which came at I o'clock.
End Very Sudden.
Colonel Diaz, in announcing the death
Of his father, said that he was unable
TO state the nature of the malady, but
expressed the opinion that the cause
was a complication Of diseases, due TO
advanced age.
Two tragic circumstances marked the
death Of the exiled ruler. Owing to
the troubled state in Mexico, II has
been Judged impossible to send the
body home with all that ceremony
which would have befitted one of the
greatest figures in Mexican history,
and further Colonel Portirio Diaz, Jr.,
has tried in vain to inform his sisters
Sonora Ignacio de Ia Tore and Sonora
Rincon Gallardo, who are now in Mex
leo. of the death of their father.
Not less tragic, perhaps, IS the fact
that not one of those whom GeneraI
Diaz raised up to be his assistants IN
governing Mexico, and who prospercd
and grew rich in the shadow OF ms
greatness. were with him when he dled'
lose Yves de Limantour, x-MeXlcan
Minister of Finance, is in London;
Francisco de la Barra, ex-Proyisionaii
President Of Mexico, and holder Oh
other important positions, including the
ENTHUSIASTICALLY to the United States
and Guillermo de Landa, ex-governor
of the Federal district in Mexico, are
in Biarritz, France. Scarcely any one
outside the family knew Of the serious
ness of General Diaz's illness or that
he was in Paris.
Weakened by Attack of Grip.
The end seems to have been brought
about by failure of the heart, which
was weakened by severe attack Of
the grip last year. This illness also
left the aged exile almost blind. Never
theless. he was accustomed to walk out
daily during the last spring in the
Bois de Bouloene, which he loved be-
cause it resembled the Chapultepec in
Mexico City. He had been hoping to
go to Biarritz soon, but his illness pre-
vented.
General Diaz lived here in the great
est simplicity, occupying a modest
apartment, in striking contrast to the
great houses and retnue Of servants
maintained by some of his friends VINO
fled Mexico with him.
No decision has yet been made con
corning the final disposition OF the body
or the date of the funeral.
