WAS FORMERLY FROM BRISTOL
of Former Kenosha Man as
Citizen of the United States Is Estab-
Ished by the Fact That His Name
Appeared on the Last Poll List.

The officials of the Dominion OF
Canada have filed notice with the
United States Department of Labor
that John HASA, or 'sHesse,p a Ger
man, fifty nine years of age, is to be
deported from Canada to the United
States. The man, it is declared, is
properly a charge upon Kenosha county
and he is now in an asylum for the
insane at Battleford, Saskatchewan.
For more than four months there have
been diplomatic communications be-
tween the Canadian and United States
governments relating to the case of
HASA and the chief Of the bureau has
reached the decision that HASA is
properly charge upon Kenosha
county and has directed the Canadian
officials to deliver the man to one
of the border towns that he may be
sent back to Kenosha. John H. Clark,
United States commissioner at Mon
treal, Canada, has been instructed to
handle the case for this government.
Hasa was formerly employed as
farm hand on the farm of L. T. Hern-
sheim in the town of Bristol and he
left that farm in April of last year.
At that time the man was in perfect
health and people who knew him in
Bristol declare that they can not ac-
count for his becoming insane He
gent from Bristol to the Canadian
Northwest with a view of lettering
his condition. IT is said that he be-
came insane shortly after he reached
farm settlement in Saskatchewan.
The man had no records to show who
he was but the Canadian officials man
aged to get some facts in regard to
him through letters which had been
sent to him from the town of Bristol
and many months ago the department
of labor was asked to provide for his
return to this country.
1t was discovered that he had taken
out his first papers in Trenton, New
Jersey, more than twenty-five years
ago, but there was no record that he
was citizen. Finally orders were re-
ceived here that the poll lists be
searched and these showed that HASA
or Hesse" as the name appears on
the poll lists, had voted at the last
presidential election in the town of
Bristol. AS his vote was accepted
without challenge this is taken as an
indication that he was citizen Of the
United States. At least no objection
was ever raised to his vote and citi-
zenship was required before he could
have voted. The name of Hesse APP
pears on the poll list directly below
that of Harry Hernsheim and this is
taken to establish fully the identity
of the man.
Under the treaty relations between
the United States and Canada, the man
may be sent back to this country as
he had not been in Canada for period
of two years before he became de-
pendent. Under the federal rulings
the man must be sent back to Wiscon-
sin and Kenosha county and as he had
been out of the town of Bristol for
more than year he must become a
care upon the county. It is expected
that he will be delivered to the Of
fcials of Kenosha county within the
next few weeks and if found insane
here he will be committed to one of
the Wisconsin asylums

Germany Agrees in Principle.
What Germany said officially wa
as follows:
THE German government Woul,
undertake not to use their subma
ines to attack mercantile Of any flai
except when necessary to enforce tn,
right of visit and search"
The proposal of the United state
was that Germany and Great Britain
should agree that neither will us,
submarines TO attack merchant yes
sells of any nationality except to en-
force the right of visit and search.
The only explanation advanced 10y
officials as a possible reason for the
misunderstanding is that a newspaper
report, also published in the Unitcc
states reached Great Britain to the
effect that Germany had agreed tt
abandon her submarine warfare
against neutrals, but not against bel
ligerent merchant men.
Officials declined TO say whether
this misunderstanding would furnish
the basis for further negotiation. II
was evident they were deeply dlsap-
pointed at the failure Of their ef-
forts to bring the belligercnts to a
realization of the difficulties in which
their actions involve the neutral
commerce of the world.
Notes From Washington.
The following identical note was
sent by the secretary Of state to the
American ambassadors at Berlin and
London
Washington. Feb 20. 1915.-You
will please deliver to Sir Edward Grey
the following identical note which we
are sending England and Germany:
an view of the correspondence
which has passed between this goY-
ernmcnt and Great Britain ana Ger
many. respectively relative to the
declaration of war zone by the Ger
man admiralty and the use of neutral
flags by British merchant vessels, TINS
government ventures to express the
hope that the two helligerent govern
ments may, through reciprocal con
cessions find basis for agreement
which will relieve neutral ships en-
Gagged in peaceful commerce from the
great dangers which they VIII incur
in the high seas adjacent to the coasts
of the belligerents.
"The government Of the United
states respectfully suggests that an
agreement i'm terms like the following
might be entered into. This sugges-
tton is not to be regarded AS in any
sense a proposal made by this gov
ernment for it Of course fully realizes
that It is not its privilege to propose

Officially Il a Blockade.
The answers from Great Britain anC
France reveal for the first time that
the allies officially regard their pol
icy as "a blockade" but desire to re-
frain from exercising the rights OF
bclligerents under a blockade to con-
fiscate carg0es as a penalty fOi
breach of blockade, substituting for II
procedure in prize courts and com
pensation through sale of the detained
merchandise.
The definition Of radius of activ-
ity' for the allied fleet in European
waters including the Mediterranean
is the first intimation Of the geo
graphical limits of the blockade. Its
limits were not given more exactly
the allies claim, because Germany was
equally indefinite in prodaiming al
the waters surrounding Great Britain
and Ireland a war zone"
The restriction Of the area Of OPP
eraiions of the blockade to European
waters followed this observation by
the United states to both Great Bri-
tain and France:
While this government is fully
alive to the possibility that the meth
DDS Of modern naval warfare, par
ticularly in the use of submarines foI
both defensive and offensive opera
tons, may make the former means

should be also some limit to the ra

construed as blockade. 1t would

The publication of the correspond

The notes record the failure of the
United states to bring the belliser-
ents into an agreement on the use OF
