Feared That He Migth Become
Domestic Menace In Case of War
BELIEVED GERMANY MAY STOP
SUBMARINE ATTACKS FOR TIME

Washington, May 15.- Intense interest continued
today In official and diplomatic quarters as to the
probable nature of Germany's reply to Wilson's note
regarding the Lusitania disaster It is thought not
improbable that Germany would suspend the sub
marine warfare while the diplomatic discussion was in
progress and it might suggest if the British govern
ment notified all it's merchantmen to sail unarned the
right OF visit and search would then be exercised to
prevent anything contraband from reaching it's des
tination. .~- ..3
Another suggestion considered not unlikely to be
made by Germany was that belhgerents give assur-
ances that no contraband of would be carried on
passenger ships. It is believed that Germany might
insist on retaining the submarine as destroyer of
commerce but would offer to make attacks on non
combatants or their crews if the merchant was un-
armed.
The suggestion of arbitration was received among
officials with the informal comment that such course
was among the considerations which had occurred
here but they point out that it probably would not be
satisfactory unless assurances given that in the
meantime submarine warfare on merchant ships would
be suspended The officials said unless that was DONE
more lives might be lost while artibtarton was prog
ressing. .-... "~s

Was Referred to AS
Unofficial Spokesman
for Kaiser William

Washington May 15.-Dr. Bernhard Dern-
burg, often referred to the official spokesman of
Emperor William in the United States, has
made plans to leave the country his own initia-
tive within a short time This became known in
official quarters today. In view of intimations that
President Wilson and his cabinet displeased
with Dernburg's speech justifying the sinking of
the Lusitania and some of his other public utter
ances which they believed might be calculated to
array the sentiment of the Germans in the United
States against the Washington government friends
of Dernburg persuaded him to leave the country.
just when he will leave where he will 60 is un-
known, but it is believed that he will sail for Cuba
or South America It has been repeatedly denied
by the German embassy we'll as by Dernburg
that he was the spokesman for the German gov
ernment or had any official status
Dernburg's activity in the United States since
the beginning of the has been closely observed
by the president and other high officials who came
to believe in the last week that continuation of
his speeches and statements might in the event of
a critical turn of relations with Germany, menace
the domestic welfare of America :. s.e a.--
Dernburg issued statement last night declar-
ing he had never discussed matters that have arisen
automatically between the United States and Ger
many. The officials made no comment beyond
pointing to Dernburg utterances at Cleveland and
New York recently seeking to justify the attack
the Lustania.

Court congress held its concluding
session here last night. with its dele
gates expressing the opinion that the
latest movement toward world peace,
as expressed in the congress- idea of
an international court of justice has
been launched toward a conclusion
that is bound to be successful.
There are many who are inclined
to believe the movement visionary"
said John Hays Hammond, chairman.
These do not comprehend the inform
alton at the disposal of the men fost-
ering the idea of world court, which
will have punch because it will
make arbitration obligatory and not
optional.
Assurances have come from all
sides, including representative men of
the nations now at war, that support
of the plan for world court is sure
to ensue, once the carnage in Europe
has ended. These assurances are
authoritative.
while the congress has been in
session we have received pledges of
intended support to our plan from
individuals and organizations all over

UNDER PANAMA CANAL ACT

Washington, May 15.-The applica-
tion of the Pennsylvania, New York
Central, Lehigh Valley, and other.
railroads to retain their ownership or
continue operations of boat lines on
the great lakes despite the prohibition
in the Panama canal act, was denied
today by the interstate commerce
commission. All the railroads apply
ing must give up their boat lines by
December 1. 1915. ~.
This is the first case involving ex-
tensive steamship propstties under
the new law. which has been decided
against the railroads. The commits
sion held that none Of the lake line
services maintained by the petitioning
railroads were "being operated in the
interest of the public or Of advantage
to the convenience or commerce OF the
people," within the meaning Of the
Panama canal act and that permission
to allow their operations by railroads
will prevent, exclude, reduce COM
