Wilson and Lansing
Will Both Prepare
Memoranda to Be
Basis of New Note

Washington, July 12-The situation between
Germany and the United States has taken on such
serious and critical character that the policy of the
American government will require lengthy and delib
crate consideration, that 1T may have the hrmness
which the circumstances require This statement was
made in high official quarters.
Secretary Lansing, after taking several days to
examine the German reply, may not go to Cornish,
New Hampshire after all, to confer with President
Wilson. The original plan, it explained, for
the president and Lansing to confer, and then have
the secretary draft note to be submitted to the cab
met on the president s return to Washington.
Now the belief is that the president and Lansing,
working Independently, will prepare memoranda and
confer after their ideas have matured
Count Won Bernstorff, the German ambassador,
has asked Lansing If he wishes to him, and the
secretary is understood to have replied that he does
after he has carefully examined the situation
The ambassador is seeking information on the at
titude of the American government towards the Ger
reply. After Lansing has consulted with Presid
ent Wilson it is not unlikely that intimaon will
be given to the German ambassador of the seriousness
with which the United States government regards
the crisis '. "ss =. .a... .-s
While Lansing has not given the slightest inkling
OF his views, ntmatiens from the White House well
as the state department point to the framing of
policy which will express even more emphatically
than before the views of the United States and the
belief is growing that the next note may include some
idea of the intentions of the American government if
its demands are not met.
The general comment in executive quarters is
that the next American note would define the position
of the United States clearly so that Ger
many's subsequent attitude would definitely deter
mine whether diplomatic relations will be continued
That there will be surrender of American
rights In the note is practically certain, and it is
also assured that German proposals for the immunity
of American passenger ships not carrying contraband
will be rejected. just what step will be taken by the
United States a result of Germany failure to dis
aVow the sinking of the Lusitana is most uncertain.

AMMUNITION Is
AWAITING NOW

II there is any peaceful people In the
United States whom the war is hitting
any harder than anybody else those
people are the nimrods. The great de-
mand for powder in Europe has sent
the prices of ammunition of all kinds
aeroplaning among the clouds and the
end is not yet in sight. Just recently
shot shells have Jumped 15 per cent in
price and are now selling for 86 cents
and more per box.
The hunters are rather on the anx-
ious seat just at present and many Of
them have laid in a big supply of
shells for fall use and others are
thinking about 1t. They say there is
no telling when the war will end or
who is going to get into 1t and th@y
think 1t Just as well to stock up for
aly amount OF hunting they intend to
do this coming fall.
There are going to be ducks and
geese and chickens In plenty this fall
and hunting should be excellent in al
most all parts OF the state, except,
perhaps, in those portions Of the state
where young chickens were drowned.
fortunately this section lis not large
and the chicken crop is going to be a
sbumper'' one.
American powder factories are
working night and day on war orders,
according to reports and the hunters
face the possibility OF going back to
black powder should the war continue
for any great length Of time. The de-
xmand for smokeless from abroad is
now about all American factories can
handle. Even the u, s.. govern
uasnt ig stocking I'D.

I Berlin, July s. The undersigned
has the honor to make the following
reply to his excellency, Ambassador
Gerard, to the note of the 10th ultimo,
| regarding the impairment Of American
interests by the German submarine
war. The Imperial German govern
ment learned with satisfaction from
the note how earnestly the govern
ment of the United States is concern
ed in seeing the principles Of humanity
realized in the present war. Also, this
appeal finds ready echo in Germany
and the Imperial government is quite
decisions on the present case to be
governed by the principles OF humanity
just as it has done always.
THE Imperial government welcomed
with gratitude when the American
government, in the note of May l5,s
itself recalled that Germany had al
ways permitted itself to be governed
by the principles Of progress and
humanity in dealing with the law OF
maritime war. Since the time when
Frederick The Great negotiated with
John Adams, BENJAMIN Franklin and
Thomas Jefferson, the treaty and
friendship and commerce of September
3, 1885, between Prussia and the re-
| public Of the west, German and AM
erican statesmen have in fact, always
stood together in the struggle for the
freedom Of the seas and for the pro-
lection Of peaceable trade. In the
international proceedings which since
| have been conducted for the regulation
Of maritime war, Germany and AM
| erica have jointly advocated progress
sive principles, especially the abolish
ment Of the right to capture at sea and
the protection of the interests OF neu-
| trails.
Even at the beginning of the pres-
ent war the German government inn
Imedtately declared it's willingness, In
response to proposals OF the American
government TO ratify the declaration
OF London, and thereby subject itself
in the use OF its naval forces to all the
restrictions provided therein In favor
OF neutrals. Germany likewise has al
ways been tenacious of the principle
that war should be conducted against
the armed and organized forces OF an
enemy country but that the enemy
civilian population must be spared as
far as possible from the measures OF
war. The Imperial government cher
ishes the definite hope that some way
will be found. when peace is conciud-
ed, or perhaps earlier, to regulate the
law of maritime war In a manner
guaranteeing the freedom OF the sea.

SENIOR OUTING

essary TO shed the assumed garb OF
dignity and wisdom and giving
sway to more youthful inclinations.
allow oneself to become youngster
again. Such was the case with our
worthy senior body and their fac
ulty friends last Monday afternoon.
Taking the noon train they soon
landed at Slate Lick, 1.-THE class-day
park of Berea," where surrounded
on all sides by the majestic handi-
work of Nature, and far from the
curious, critical eyes of the public,
they forgot their weighty text books
and the graver duties of the class
room and once more were free TO
move and act as best suited their
own fancies.
A bounteous luncheon, prepared
by highly efficient cooks, was par
taken Of, and then the afternoon
was given over to games and other
diversions, in which pursuit Profess
sor Robertson easily won the crown
OF laurels.
A sudden rain interrupted the

ed an early return. However, the
memories were all pleasant and

prohibition league-the winner OF
the state contest representing the
state in this southern contest. The
president of the association, Mr..
