Roleau was past them, beyond the
door, and in the hall before their scat
tered senses had time to realize what
had happened.
AS he fed, Roleau had no plan be-
yond that of mere fight. But it
CHANGED that he reached the outer cor
ridor just as Kitty's guards were
bringing her into it. He fell likewise
upon Kitty's guards with such des-
perate valor that before long they, too,
were scattered and helpless. A mo-
ment later Kitty and Roleau fed, seek
ing some exit from the palace walls.
The hue and cry followed them now.
Almost they had escaped, but not
quite. Even at the great door of the
palace itself they were apprehended
by yet other armed men. Once more
they were brought before the king.
$50 it seems we have two incor-
rigibles," commented that monarch
coldly as he faced Roleau and Kitty,
still painting. This man, as you
know, Sachio, is far more dangerous
than his accomplice here. She is dan
gerous, yes, in a way, but this man
has hesitated at nothing-not even
murder. What shall we do with hin?"
Sachio stood also regarding the two.
s'I'll tell you, your majesty" said he
at length, slowly, "if you ask me my
own feeling in the matter. Let US
send them out of the country to-
gether. They have way Of gravitat-
ing together-let them go together to
that America of which they talk so
much. Let them find the protection
Of that Uncle Sam of whom they
prate."
Away with them!" command Cort-
islaw, imperiously.
Sachio therefore now had his task
But how to achieve it was his ques-
ton. He knew well enough he could
not oblige either Kitty or Roleau to
book passage across the ocean unless
they so desired.
ATTEND to these two, lieutenant"
said he to the officer of the guard.
Keep them safe until return"
He fastened now as rapidly as he
might to the water front, where at the
somewhat restricted docks of Grahof
fen an occasional ocean liner touched.

inquired the nobleman.

but at length agreed with him. "Why

You are committing no crime, but

These two spies will be brought here
to the dock just before the ship sails.
There is some confusion-but they get
aboard-they are hoisted from the
dock into the hold, where they will be
safe. Very good, the vessel sails. She
is at sea one day, two days. Then all
at once there is hue and cry-stowa-
ways discovered-twoo of them. Very
well, that is all. They tell their story,
but the captain of the ship thinks
them to be stowaways, and nothing
else. They have the look of such. AS
such they will be landed in due time
at New York. Their passage money
is paid not to the ship but to you
yourselves-more than you would
make for six months wages. And be.

ice to our country, which is far more

Travel incognito.


Roleau paced his narrow cage like
some restless wild beast, some half
formed plan in his mind. The time
was at hand for his guards to bring
him his midday food. He heard them
approaching before long, four Of them,
all careless, singing some ribald ditty
of the line and trench. He saw them
open his door and enter. putting down
the basin which held his meager prison
fare. 1t was enough! The door of the
cell was open.
With a leap and snarl of rage the
powerful man was upon the guards,
striking. wrestling, assailing here and
there with such violence and such skill
that soon the four were much at his
mercy, taken altogether by surprise as
they had been. Once more holiness

Germans Sank 6 Ships
While Preparing Note

London, May 3l.-German subma-
rines were unusually busy while the
German Foreign Office was engaged in
the y.eparation of it's answer to the
Washington note on the Lusitania in,
cdent. The last few days, 1t is pointed
out in London. provided them with a
heavy bag Of big merchant ships.
These include the steamer Ethlope,
300 tons, and the Tullochmoor, $500
tons. which were sunk on Friday in
the approaches to the English Chan
mel.
On Saturday the British steamer
Ping Suey, belonging to the Holt line,
was attacked twice by undersea boats
within five hours, but she succeeded
in escaping into Plymouth. Another
victim was the steamer Glenlee, of A.
600 tons, recently sunk somewhere be-
tween the British and French coasts.
In the North Sea, a German submarine
sent the Russian ship Mars TO the bot
tom a few days ago, and the loss OF
the British steamers Spennymoor and
Cadeby also has been reported.
Thus within three days six ships Of
considerable size have been destroyed
and six lives lost. Furthermore, the
transatlantic liner Megantic had mar
row escape.
London observers are drawing atten-
ton to these cases, particularly in
connection connect nv, with presentation of the

CULFLIGHT ATTACK
GERMAN MISTAKE"
Berlin Officially Admits SUBJ

II British Boat.
from The Tribune Bureau

Washington. May 3l.--The German
government officially admitted to-day
that the attack on the American
steamer GulAight by German subma-
rine was mistake" This means that
Germany will afford damages without
first instituting prize court action, as
outlined in tie German circular of
May IL. The announcement of the
mistake" was in a cable dispatch + n
Ambassador Gerard at Berlin to the
State Department. 1t said:
"The American Ambassador at Bei in
reports that the chief of the Admiralty
staff. Admiral Behnke, has informed
him that the commander of he subma-
rine which sank the Gulflight did so
through mistake, because two boats
similar to trawlers. one carrying wire
less apparatus. were APPARENTLY convoy
ing the Gulfight. The commander,
therefore, thought il British boat
and did not notice the American flag
on the stern until jus: after giving the
order to fire."
The Gulfight was attacked in the
English Channel or May /, while bound
from Port Arthur, Tex, for Rouen,
France, with a cargo of oil. Two MEM
bers of the crew were drowned while
taking TO the boats, and the captain
died the following day from heart trou-
bic brought on by his experience.

German Papers Here
Call Note "FriendlV"

Comment from some of the Ger
man paper the United States fol-
lows:
CHICAGO FREE PRESSE.-The
German government goes further in its
answer than our government in Wash
ington could have expected. Despite
the fact that the American government
cannot assert positively that the Gulf
light was the victim of a German tor
pedo and that such proof might well be
demanded under international law, Ger
many agreed rCt to demand proof, and
offered compensation for the loss of
the Gulfiight. This fact alone ought
20 prove that Germany is in the high
est degree concerned in maintaining
friendly relations with our republic,
although she has long received any
thing but proc f such neutral friend

CINCINNA FREIE PRESSE The
German note ourteous in tone and
the hand is for a settlement Of
differences. me note does not say
that the American position is untena-
bic. 1t merely d hands that the facts

takes the good ola American view that
the complain ~ must bring forth the
evidence of Ia, guilt of the accused.
MILWAUKEE GERMAN HERALD
That the &c. .G demand in regard 10
establishing the facts is not only JUS
titled but even necessary to reach a
result satisfying TO the history of the
world seems clear. and as this demand
has been presented in a most quiet
and friendly manner, there seems TO
be absolutely cause for serious diff
ferences between the two countries.
"All To BE Expected"
CHICAGO hBENDP0ST- The Amer
lean note really was an indictment
based solely upon British and pro-
British testimony, and asked of Ger
many that she admit her guilt and do
penance witho I further ado. In view
of this, the German note is all that
was TO be expected.
INDIANAPOLIS DAILY TELE-
GRAPH TRIBUNE We believe that
the German Cove ment, through Mr..
Won Jago v, ha answered every ques-
tion in the 7 sIonnts note satisfac-
torily except @, and on that one it
desires further information.
ST. LOUIS WESTLICHE POST The

fenecuon, 10 dlSmlss the grounds SUD
mitted to him for rehearing, but
first he must accord them his most
respectful attention and. before all
things. must not regard il as an in
suit that a nation. striving for its very
being, seeks 70 justify its methods OF

call Of the ,enublic is sacred, expect
toward Germany neither sympathy nor
generosity. only justice.
MILWAUKEE SENTlNEL-The Ger
man preliminary reply is meant 10
open the way TO further discussion.
1t is a fair inference from the con-
tention as to the character OF the Lusi-
tsnia that the is no intention of pur-
suing such attacks OF passenger liners

Ought To Be Satisfied.

Berlin, May 81. All the newspapers
Of Berlin publish to-day the German
governments answer to the Washing
ton communication on the Lusitania
incident, but very few Of them make
airy comment on it.
CAPTAIN Persius. naval expert Of the
"Berliner Tageblstt," expresses thor
ough approval of the tone of Germany's
reply to the United States.
The reply, says Captain Persius,
while compile ely friendly. leaves no
doubt OF &c msry's firm determine
ton to cor tinue her submarine war
fare unless Great Britain returns to
the principles Of the London Declare
ton. He p 'es the American govern
ment on e 'ofensive to answer for
"the crimina .ght-mindedness" which
allowed its citizens to sail on steamer
CARRYING ammunition and exposed to
the attacks Of German submarines.
The attempt to pass the responsibility
on to Germany. the writer saws. is an
old device of those whose consciences
are now shattered or Germany's firm
reply.
The writer saws every clear thinking
German will be pleased at the govern
ment's moderate language. because too
brusoue language toward any or all the
neutral countries would scarcely be ad-
visable in an era when Germany's enc
mics are going to every length to win
their favor.
In conclusion Captain Persius says:
thine will pass and the opportunity
will be given for cooler consideration
of the Lusitania case. The cries Of
horror over American women and chill
dren will die down. and | hope the
views of peaceful neutral persons Will
gain the upper hand"
The "Boerse Zeitung" prints mild
editorial article, reitersting that the
responsibility for the loss OF lives lies
with those who took on bo&<d pas
sengers to use them to a certain extent
as hostages against attack"
The "TaCes Zeitung" publishes ex-
tended comment from the pen of Count
Won Reventlow, its writer on naval af-
fairs, who says that the German reply,
with Germany's earlier assurances Of
willingness and good will, will er-
roneously 1e taken to indicate prepare

To those who expect signs of giving

Count Won Reventlow quotes from the
war zone declaration of February the
phrase which warns vessels they are
likely to be torpedoeo, and nc ntimates
that this will be enforced in the future
as has been in the past.

after the torpedoing of the Lusitanla
the United States filed a complaint
with Germany that sounded almost
threatening. More than twenty years
ago merican diplomats won for them
selves the title of 'shirt-sleeved diplo-
matists.' Consequently, one judges the
tone and the contents of the American
note by a standard different from that
customary in Europe. The German
government, therefore, has not become
excited over the Washington note; on
the contra Y, it has replied in all calm
moss"

Of importance will be made here in

feet in depth, cross cut is being
driven to reach the big vein and in
a distance now covered of approx
mately 20 feet it has exposed a mum
ber of small seams of pay ore. A
popularity of this ore is that 1t
contains lead and zinc in small
quantity.
The winze from the long easS

sunk on an incline of 20 degrees.
starting near the footwall and near
an 1S-inch seam of $44 ore 1t
soon became apparent that the vein
was assuming a flatter dip as 1t
gained in depth and this flattening
is plainly more pronounced than was
at first indicated, as it was, believed
the foot-wall would be cut within
less than 80 feet of the winze at
the 700 level.
This flattening is further indi-
Gated by the more nearly horizontal
strata Of country rock, penetrated
by the cross-cut, but it is believed
that the vein will be reached within
the next few days. The work at
this level will be the first to cut
and explore the great lode below the
permanent water level, which is ap-
parently at depth of about 500

The wide distribution Of minerals,
forming narrow seams of good ore,
above the 500-foot level lends
weight to the belief that a greater
concentration will be found below
the water level and in the sulphide
zone Students of the geology OF
this part of the district are Of the
opinion that deposits of great value
will be found in exploring the big
| lode at this depth. On the 500-toot

contains many seams and small
shoots of pay ore, but comparatively
little of this ore was found in de-
posits that could be mined profita'
