LUSITAN|A CARRIED
MUNITIONS Of WAR.
SAYS DR.. DERNBURG
Charges That American Pas
sengers We're Carried As
A Shield For Cargo

Cleveland, Ohio, May s.-Dr. Bern,
hard Dernburg today charged that the
British government carried American
passengers on the Lusitania as shield
Tor an immense cargo of war mum.
tions.
When asked pointedly if he antici.
pated that the United States might be
drawn into the war by the Lusitania
disaster Dernburg said:
THAT is question | cannot discuss,
! can only say that any ship flying the
American flag, and not carrying con.
traband of war, will be as safe as a
cradle on the seas.
but any other ship, not so exempt,
Will be as unsafe as volcano-or as
the Lusitania."
Dernburg was questioned about the
Gultlight case He replied:
"Oils are contraband Of war. The
GuIflight carried oil for France.
'The Lusitania S manifest showed
that she carried for Liverpool 28O, 1000
pounds Of brass, 10000 pounds of con
per, lS9 eases of military goods, 1911
eases of ammunition and for London
1900 eases Of cartridges.
"Vessels of that kind can be seized
and destroyed under The Hague rules
without any respect to their presence
in or out Of the war zone The Lusi.
tania was British auxiliary cruiser
and a man of war The passengers had
full warning.
"Gcrmany wants to do anything
reasonable so as not to make the
United States or its citizens suffer in
any way, But we cannot do so unless
Americans take necessary precautions
to protect themselves from dangers Of
which they are cognizant
"What Germany has done, has been
done by way Of retaliation after Great
Britain rejected President Wilson s
suggestion that the British permit food.

Great Britain had declared a war that
