u. S. GETS BERLIN'S
FRYE CASE REPLY
Likely to Contain Unacceptable
Proposal to Send Matter to
Prize Court.

Washington. Aug. 1.-The German
note regarding the sinking Of the
American ship William P. Frye, which
was handed to Ambassador Gerard at
Berlin yesterday, had not been re-
ceived at the State Department TO-
night. II was expected some time to-
morrow. Secretary Lansing said no
word had been received from the am
bassador concerning the note.
There is considerable speculation
here as to what the German reply TO
the last American communication con-
tains. in view of the attitude then
taken by this government. Germany
was asked TO reconsider her decision
to send the Frye case to a prize court
for readjustment, the United States
maintaining that. under the treaty
with Prussia of 1928. it was matter
for diplomatic adjustment, and not
subject TO prize court rules Inc
United States intimated that IT would
not recognize a prize court ruling IN
the case as binding.
Should the German reply include an
announcement of q prize court decl-
sion, the United States would not, II
was said, take any measures TO pre-
vent the owners from accepting the
award if they are satisfied. But the
American government will not recede
from it's contention that the case was
one for a diplomatic adjustment.
