ment of the Arabic case. The imperi-
al government in a letter presented
its ambassador. Count Won Bernstorff
TO Secretery Lansin, disayows the
sinking of the vessel. that
IL has so notified the submarine com
mander who made the attack, eH-
presses regrets for the loss OF Ameri-
can lives, and agrees to pay in in
demnity to their families.
Official Washington was both
gratified and relieved by the diplo-
matte victory. The communication
delivered by the ambassador pnrsu-
ant to general intructions from his
government spread absolute conf
dence that there would be no more
submarine controversies between the
United States and Germany, for the
document reveals the stringent or,
ders have been given to Submarine
commanders to prevnt a recurrnce of
such incidents as the Arabic attack.
Since this case embraces the prin-
ciple for which President Wilson con-
tended in his notes following the tor
pedoing of the LusitanIa and the
Falaha, the concessions made by Ger
many TO the American viewpoint We're
generally regarded as paving
the way for amicable settlement of
all the cases which have theatened
severance of diplomatic relations be.
tween the two countries.
Count Won Berntorff left Washing
on happy over the results of his
work. expressing the confident hope
that relations between Germany and
by United States would continue to
improve.
With the settlement of the Arabic
controversy. the dispatch to Great
Britain of the long delayed American
tote on interference with trade is
expected within a few days. Presi-
dentWilson has consistently refused
to send this communication while the
with Germany were pending,
because the Berlin government had
through it's notes, given the impress
sion that on the action which the
States took with one set of
belligerents depended its " con-
to international law. As the
issues with Germany appear now to
be adjusting themselves, the presi-
dent, 1t is known. feels free to press
Great Britain for a modification of
the orders in council and restrictions
of American trade.
Wild Bull Nose Chases Roosevelt. !
How Colonel Roosevelt had to
break the game laws of Quebec on his
recent visit and killd an extra moose
to ave his own life, is told In an aff-
davit sworn to by himself and his two
guides before Notary Penet of st
and deposited with the fish
and game branch at the local parlia-
ment buildings.
According to the statements, the
colonel, who was the guest of the
Tourilli club had already killed the
one moose allowed him by law. and
returning with his two guides In
a canoe, when they sighted another
moose at some distance. 1t was ex-
pected that as soon as the latter got
their wind 1t would make away. but
ii showed no signs of fear and at
tempted to charge, when the canoe
came near, the colonel and his guides
being forced to put to deep water.
Colonel Roosevelt, thinking to
scare, fired over its head, but this
only seemed to infuriate 1t. The way
home lay through a small stream con-
Meeting two lakes and shortly before
they came to this the o o disap-
peared into the bush and the party
thought they had seen the last of 1t.
However as the canoe was halfway
down the stream the animal appear
ed In front of it; the water at this
spot was only about a foot deep and
the moose began his charge at about
thirty feet distant. Roosevelt fired
owe his head despite the shout of the
guides who were urging to kill at
once.
The nose kept on and then the ex-
President, ralizing, as he said after
ward, that it as either his life or thai
of the angry beast, fired again and
struck the latter in the chest at about
eighteen feet away He slowed up for
a moment, but came on again, and
this time the big game hunter gave
him the rest with a shot through the
head which brought him down.
