The time ID approaching Wnen the

following suggestions have been Pre-
pared.

total Of 1921 passengers aboard, Of
whom 179 were Americans, and with
a crew of SIC, sailed from here last
Saturday in the face of a warning
published on the day of her departure
by the German embassy. which stated
that travellers intending to embark
on British ships did so at the risk OF
the ships being destroyed in accord
ance with the German zone decree.
This warning, published in the form
of an advertisement, did not result in
the cancellation of a single passage
nor did anonymous notes of warning,
said to have been received by some
passengers just before the big liner
left her pier, deter anyone from sail.
ing.
Reports from Washington that it
was privately known in official quar-
tiers that the Lusitania was to be
torpedoed at the first opportunity.
gave color to the opinion expressed
in shipping circles Friday night that
the embassy's warning was intended
to apply particularly to the Lusitania.
Travellers intending to embark on
the Atlantic voyage" read the adver-
tisement, ARE reminded that a state
of war exists between Germany and
her allies and Great Britain and her
allies; that the zone of war includes
the waters adjacent to the British
lies; that, in accordance with formal
notice given by the imperial govern
ment, vessels flying the flag of Great
Britain or any of her allies are liable
to destruction in those waters, and
that travellers sailing in the war zone
on ships of Great Britain or her allies
do so at their own risk"
: In addition to those on her passen-
ger list, the Lusitania carried SO who
were to have sailed the same day on
the Anchor liner Cameronia, which
at the last moment was held in port
by orders of the British admiralty,
presumably to be sent to Halifax.
/ The Lusitania's cargo was valued
at about $750,000 and contained a
large quantity of war supplies. Her
manifest included 100000 pounds of
brass and copper wire, $4,000 worth
of military goods, and SAL cases of
ammunition valued at 100000, all OF
which was contraband of war.
The ship itself. Cunard officials said
Friday. was covered by $5,OOO.OO0 war
risk insurance
President to Act Carefully.
Washington-The first word from
President Wilson on the sinking OF
the Lusitania came Saturday night. II
amounted to an assurance to the coun.
try that the president would deal with
