In Washington that Grey will

"On the right Of Great Britain to

much are they to receive, and how

That is where the controversy
lies. Great Britain wants to pay no
more than the market value of the

want the contract price, which is
somewhat higher. Moreover. they
want their money soon. They dis

SUBMARINE is AGROUND
Third Plunger to Meet Trouble Since
War Maneuvers Off New
port Began.

NEWPORT. r. L., May 2o.-Another
mishap to the submarine flotilla guard
ing the Atlantic coast during the war
game of the Atlantic feet was reported
tonight, when word reached this city
that a submarine was aground on the
east side of No Mans Land. The tender
Fulton was standing by. The subma-
rine struck during dense fog in a
heavy southwest wind and rough sea.
The condition of the submarine was
not known. No Mans Land is rocky
islet eight miles south of Gay Head 1t
is owned by Joshua Crane. jr., of Bos-
ton, the well known polo and court
tennis player, who uses it as fish and
game preserve. Capt. A. w. Hall, the
keeper. and his family are the only
residents.
No Call for Help.
So far as can be learned here no call
for help has been sent out by the
tender Fulton, and this is taken to in
dicate that the submarine is not in a
critical position. M
Since the Atlantic fleet began it's war
game at midnight of May 19 two sub
marines, besides the one off No Mans
Land have been in difficulties. The
E-2 arrived yesterday with a broken
crankshaft, while the XII is in port
with engine trouble.

officials do not underestimate the
seriousness of the crisis if the reply
from Berlin is unfavorable TO the
American demands.
If the German reply should cover
this point satisfactorily il is felt that
arrangements for the future safeguard
