GERMANY EXPLAINS
LUS|TANIA SINKING

Berlin, May 1.-THE following dis.
patch has been sent by the German
foreign Office to the German embassy
at Washington;
Please communicate the following
to the state department: The Ger
man government desires to express
its deepest sympathy at the loss OF
lives on board the Lusitania The re-
sponsibility rests, however, with the
British government, which through its
plan OF starving the civilian popula-
ton of Germany has forced Germany
to resort to retaliatory measures.
In spite of the German offer to
stop the submarine war in case the
starvation plan was given up British
merchant vessels are being generally
armed with guns and have repeatedly
tried to ram submarines. SO that a
previous search was impossible.
They cannot, therefore. be treated
as ordinary merchant vessels. A re-
cent declaration made to the British
parliament by the parliamentary sec
retary in answer to question by Lord
Charles Beresford said that at the
present practically all British mer-
chant vessels were armed and provid-
ed with hand grenades.
Besides, ii has been openly admit
ted by the English press that the
Lusitania on previous voyages re-
peatedly carried large quantities OF
war material. On the present voyage
the Lusitania carried 5.400 cases OF
ammunition, while the rest of the car
go also consisted chiefly OF contra
band.
III England, after repeated official
and unofficial warnings. considered
herself able to declare that that boat
ran no risk and thus light heartedly
assumed responsibility for the human
life on board steamer which, owing
to its armament and cargo, was liable
to destruction, the German govern
ment in spite OF its heartfelt sym
pathy for the loss of American lives
cannot but regret that Americans
felt more inclined to trust to English
promises rather than to pay attention
TO the warnings from the German
side"

CALMLY VIEWED ITS WORK
Lusitanis Passenger Says Submarine
Came to the Surface.

London. May 1.-THE statement
that three torpedoes were fired at the
Lusitania was made to the Fishguard
correspondent Of the Daily News on
the authority Of Rev. Mr. Guvier Of
the Church Of England's Canadian
railway mission, who said the third
found its mark while the last boat
was being lowered
When the Iusitania sank, Mr.
Guvier said, a submarine rose TO the
surface and came to within 800 yards
Of the scene. The crew stood stolid
ly on the deck" he said. "and sur
veyed their handiwork. I could dis
tinguish the German flag. but it was
impossible to see the number Of the
submarine. which disappeared after a
few minutes"

Braceville, o.; DR.. Howard l.. Fisher,
Major F. Warren Pearl and Robert
Rankin Of New York, are the only

AMERICAN men GAVE
LIVES TO SAVE WOMEN

Queenstown, May 12.-There are in
dications that the heavy death roll
among the American men in the first
cabin was due TO a scarcity of life
belts, many OF them having given the
life preservers they had obtained to
helpless women. There is a prepon.
derance OF testimony that no Amer,
lean man got into boat until after
he had been thrown into the water.

LUSlTANIA GIVEN WARNING
Told by Wireless Of Danger From
Submarines.

London, May 10.-Wireless signals
warning the Lusitania Of the danger
GUS area were sent to her. That much
has definitely been established and
there is growing amazement that
these warnings were not followed and
mid-channel course taken.
Lord Mersey, who had charge of the
official investigation into the Titanic
and Empress of Ireland disasters, is
to conduct an inquiry into the sinking
of the vessel and until that begins
Official opinion as to how the Lusi-
tania came to be caught and why so
many lives were lost will remain a
