Won BERNSTORFF CoNSuLTS
WITH LANSING ON MONDAY
Policy Which Brought Arabic Case to Success
full Issue to Be Followed in Present Negotia-
tons Question of Reparation Looks Favor
able '

government demanded disavowal Of
the act, reparation and assurances
that the incident would not be repeat
ed. The last is considered to have
been disposed Of through the published
instructions to German submarine
commanders not to torpedo ships
without warning as embodied in the
settlement Of the Arabic case.
PREPARATION
The question Of disavowal Is beset
with many complexities, since. the
commander acted under instructions
existing at the time. That Germany
will give the reparation desired In
the form Of indemnity Is considered
not unlikely in view Of the fact that
virtually the same principle was in
volved in the case Of the Arabic,
which was torpedoed without warn
ing, causing the loss of two American
lives.
Although today was but the first OF
what probably will be long series OF
parleys on the subject. there was
noticeable feeling Of confidence that
an agreement ultimately would be
reached and that there would be nc
new crisis over the situation.
