tween Count von Bernstorff and Sec retary Lansing in order that the draft ing of full reply to the last Ameri- can note cen the Lusitania satisfactory to the Washington government may be hastened.
 AS to the Arabic case, it was con- fidently stated today that whatever the German admiralty report might be, the Berlin government would give assurances that it's submarine con- manders had received explicit instruc- tions that no passenger ships would be attacked wothcut warning This was in accordance with suggestions sent to Berlin by Count von BernstorE immediately after his interview with President Wilson. Even should the submarine commander attempt to justify his action or should no repc t ever be received from German com mander as to the Arabic it is believed the German government will make it clear that as a national policy tine warfare against passenger ships has been suspended
 Already offers of reparation for American lives lost with the ship have been made informally and Ambassa- dor Bernstorff feels that barring ad- justment of minor details, the friction between the two countries is at an end.

Washington, Aug. 29.-Count von Bernstoriff, the German ambassador will leave tomorrow for New York lo await instructions from his govern lnent which he confidently expects will lead to negotiations that will bring speedy and wholly satisfac- yersy between the United States and Gei many over the question of sun n ar,re warfare. Unless the situation in Eerlin wholly changes be. ,se ,ht dispatches are sent the amp 'ssatlor toicves he will be authorizei te ie- open informal discussion with Secre- ,ary Lansing to the end that nc,se may be framed by the German govern ment entirely satisfactory to the Un- ited States.
 So far as the state department is concerned, formal presentation of the Arabic case to Germany awaited re- ceipt from Ambassador Gerard at Berlin of the German admiralty re- port on the destruction of the ship. Dispatches from Berlin tonight said the report might be delayed fort night. The last of the German sub marines operating south of Ireland will not return to port before that time. Until the admiralty statement is received, however, and the Araoic case disposed of it is not likely that the discussion of the broader question of submarine warfare will be reopen ed.
 In German circles here it is firmly believed that the Berlin government
 is anxious to bring a quick and friend 1 ly termination of the whole discussion over the submarine campaign. Tn, lyisit of count von Bernstorff to Wash IingtOn acting on instructions iron
