his Office in the morning, Immediately
shook Kennels hand and wished him II
much longer period OF service. Other
CITY officials. remembering that it was
the handsome lioutenants anniversary,
dropped in at the City Hall to add their
fluctuations.
Had Kennel been in a reminiscent
mood and inclined to talk about ms
career, instead Of preserving his wonted
suave. non-committal manner he might
have told how he became the buffer be
tween too curious public and the
city's highest official when Mayor

Of the past, says "The Evening Stand
ard and St. James's Gazette"
In the South African war only four
peers and six heirs Of peers lost their

many, had been killed 1t the front some
months before.
List a Long One.

 The fact that over 100 American citizens perished made it the duty of tha United States with solemn emphasis to call the imperial Ger man governments attention to gray responsibility the United States conceived it had incurred in this +-agic occurrence. and to the in disputable principle upon which this responsibility rests"
 Referring to the German conten- ton that he Lusitania was armed with rauuons and carrying Canadian troops, the note says:

THE AMERICAN NOTE

Reiteratirg in so many words the American not of May 18th, insistiD that the German government must recognize the rights of Americans on the hiyl seas and asking that ii guarantee that they shall not again be invaded, the second American note on the Lusitania and other questions at issue between the Un- tted States and Germany insists that these are questions that are "out of the class of ordinary subjects of diplomatic discussion or information al controversy.
 The note suggests that the Un- ited States expects" Germany to recognize the principles set forth by this c.untry and to put them into practice as far as that is neces- sary to safeguard American lives and ships.
 The note is couched in friendly diplomatic language, but it states the rositiou Of the United States so plainly that there can be no mis- understanding concerning 1t.
 Referring to the German repre- sentaiions concerning the sinking of the Lusitania, the note says:
 Whatever may be the contention Of ths Imperial German government rpgardiug the carriage of contraban On beard the Lusitania, or regard ing the explosion of that material by tLe sinking, il need only be said that ia the view of this government these contentious are irrelevant to the question of the legality of the methods used by the German na- val authorities in sinking that yes sel.
