TREATY VIOLATION
Germanys Answer to United States Note Re-
iterates Previous justification Of Sinking the

of Damages to Two Experts

Washington, Aug. 4.-GermanY is un-
Welding in her refusal to conccde that
the sinking of the American sailing ship
William T. Frye by the auxiliary cruiser.

lantlc last January was violation Of
American rights under the Prussian-

In reply to the last representations OF
the United States, the German foreign
office, in note made public here Tonight
ny the state department, reiteratcs a pre-
vioua justification of Gcrmany's course.
declares again her willingness to pay for
the ship and accepts a proposal first ad-
vanccd by the United Statcs-that the
amount of damages he fixed by two ex-
perts one to he selected by each country.
Such a sum the German government
pledges itself to pay promptly with the
stipulation however. that the payment
shall not he viewed as a satisfaction for
violation of American rights Should that
method be unsatisfactory, Germany in
vites the United States to arbitration at
The Hague.
The unofficial view here is that
roparaton by a commission of experts
probably will be satisfactory to the
United States with the express provision
however, that it is not n waiver of treaty
rights for which the American govern
ment contends, but applies only to the
matter of damages.
1t is virtually certain that if the United
states allows the dispute to go to Tho
Hague for Interpretation of the treaty
provision or continues the academic dis
cussion of principles through the channel
of diplomacy, it will insist that. mean.
while, Germany refrain from violation
of what the United States contends are
its rights.
Tho entire dispute rcvolves ahou,

treaty of 1873 which was revived and in.
cludod in the treaty of lS1s That article

protected the William p Frye from being
sunk, although it did not protect n CON
tiaband cargo. Germany takes precisely
am opposite view. contending that the
article obligatos her only to pay dam

as the FrNcs cargo of wheat dostina ed
to ENGLAND was contraband the ship was
