DEEAA1lN WIZ sept. ~.
Germany in her note to the United
States government on the sinking OF
Arabic expresses regret for the loss OF
American lives, but stands positively
that no indemnity for such loss can
be granted. The text of the note was
made public here Thursday night.
The expression Of regret is whole
hearted and without equivocatiOn.
The imperial German government
says "it deeply regrets" that lives were
lost, not merely specifying American
lives, but apparently including the
lives Of all n-cOmbatants This in
a measure is an evident acceptance of
the principle insisted upon by Pres'I
Wilson that the lives of all non-cOm-
batants, even when travelling on bel
lgerent ships must be held sacred.
Respecting the loss of American
lives N the destruction of the Arabic
the imperial German government says
II particularly expresses this regret
on account of the death of American
citizens"
The refusal TO grant indemnity is
absolute and will stand even if the
submarine commander should have
been mistaken as to aggressive in
tentiOns on the part of the Arabic.
Text OF Note.
Following is the text Of the note:
Ion Aug. 10 a German submarine
stopped the English steamer Dunsley,
bout $50 nautical miles south of Kin
sal and was on the point of sinking
the prize by gun fire after the crew
had left the vessel. AT this moment
the commander saw a large steamer
making directly toward him. This
steamer, which as developed. was the
Arabic. She was recognized as an
enemy vessel as she did not fly any
flag and bore no neutral markings
10
her original course, but then again
pointed directly toward the subma
rine. From this the commander be-
came convinced that the steamer had
the intention of attacking and ram
ming him.
In order TO anticipate this attack
he gave orders for the submarine to
dive and fired a torpedo at the steam
er.
after firing he convinced himself
that the people on board were being
rescued in Is boats. -
Had Instructions.
According TO his instructions the
commander was not allowed TO attack
the Arabic without saving the lives
unless the ship attempted TO escape or
offered resistance.
'He was forced. however. to con-
clude from attendant circumstances
that the Arabic planned q violent at
tack on the submarine.
This conclusion is all the more
obvious. as he had been fired upon at
a great distance in the Irish sea on
Aug. IA, that is a few days before
by a large passenger steamer appar-
emily belonging to the British Royal
Mail Packet Co. which he had neither
attacked nor stopped
THE German government most
deeply regrets that lives were lost
through the action of the commander.
1t particularly expresses this regret
TO the government of the United States
on account of the loss OF American
lives.
"In so doing ii assumes that, as a
matter of course. the arbitral decision
shall not be admitted 10 have the i'm
pOrtance of a general decision on the
oermissibility of the converse under
International law of German subma-
rine warfare"

ment on the statement that the
Arabic was not warned and that no

the Arabic was changed, but IL is con
tended that this was done in order to
proceed to the steamer Dunsley.

department officials believe that a
great deal will depend upon the rea-
son for the change OF course.
