 - ANOTHER STATEMENT Of His Attitude on Position Between United States
 and Germany.

Washington, June 1O.-Former
 Secretary Bryan is preparing another statement of his, attitude on the sit
 uation between the United States and Germany, which he intends to issue for publication with the appearance of the text of the American note in tomorrow mornings newspapers
 Bryan's resignation as secretary of state and the circumstances leading
 up to it still held the center of interest in Washington today, overshadowing even the despatch of another note to Germany. It's effect on the nations foreign relations and also it's political consequences afford wide speculation
 Chief attention was centered on the effect of Secretary Bryan,s personal statement giving the reasons for his resignation, and his announcement that as a private citizen he would sub init ito the public for judgment his view Of what the American policy to- ward Germany should be-
 The propositions which MT. Bryan expects to urge upon the people are that an offer should be made to Ger many to submit the questions in dis pute to an international commission for investigation during a years time and that meanwIlile American citizens should by proclamation be warned not to take passage on belliserent ships or on American vessels carrying am ntnrlition, % MSThereawas considerable speculation Here today as to who would succeed MT. Bryan. It was believed that Rob ert Lansing, counsellor of the state department, who had been commis Stoned as secretary of state ad interim, eventually would receive the perrna- nents appointment. MT. Bryan spent the day of his retirement quietly, de- voting much time to reading and an swering telegrams from friends all over the country. Mr. Bryan has not determined definitely his plans for the future. x

King Victor Emmanuel of Italy at Front With Forces.

Rome, June g, 7:4O p. m., via Paris June 1O,. 6:O5t a. m.-The presence of King Victor Emmanuel at the front is having tremendous moral effect upon the Italian troops, according to reports reaching the capital from all sections of the long battle line. His Majesty has visited every zone where fighting is taking place which has meant the expenditure of vast amount of energy on his part, as the line of advance of the Italian forces is exceedingly irregular and he fre- quently has climbed to fortresses sit uated upon lofty heights along the frontier. Much of his travelling has been done on horseback because roads are lacking on a considerable portion of the front. The king is idolized by his troops x

GERMAN REPLY IN
 ABOUT TEN DAYS
Expected Answer Will Not Be Sent to American Note Und Gerhard .a Arrives in Berlin.

Washington. June 10.--The Amer tcan note to Germany concerning sink ing of Lusitania which precipitatei the crisis in President Wilson's cabinet and as a climax to which Wm. J. Bry- an resigned as secretary of state, was believed here to have reached Am bassador Gerhard in Berlin early TO- day. It was expected that the Am bassador Gerard in Berlin early to- ication imm ediately to the German foreign. 1t will be given out tonight for publication tom orrow morning, In the meatim e .yP esident Wilson has asked that detailed forecasts of the note be not published. It is under stood here that the German govern ment will not make answer to the American note until after Meyer Ger hard, the special envoy chosen by Count Von Bernstorff the German ambassador, to outline the American point of view to the government at Berlin, arrives and explains the sit uation. This, it is estimated, will take at least week or ten days.
 The latest note, though couched in friendly termss reiterates firmly the demand for sreparation for the loss of American lives in the sinking Of the Lusitania and sets forth clearly the earnest desire of the American government that Germany signify her early adherence to the principles Of international law--that neutrals be permitted to travel on unarmed ships without being subject to the dangers of submarine warfare. ....
 It became known today that just Lefore the note was forwarded to Berlin it was shown to former Secre- tsry Bryan byHActing Secretary Lan- sing at the personal direction of President Wilson. Some slight change had been made in the note and the president wanted MT. Bryan to see it in it's final form.
 Pending the publication of the note tomorrow morning officials would not discuss its details, but it was de- clared it was no more in the nature of an ultimatum than was the last note. The note makes it very plain, However, that the United States ex- poets that Germany shall cease at tacks on American ships and citizens.

..r- Q Detective Bamforth Goes eto Taunton and WiImington-thief Rawlings to Utica.

Final preparations for the trial of Bernard Montvid, charged with the murder of Rev., Joseph zebris and Eva Gilmanaitis, which is to open in the superor criminal court in Hart ford next Thursday, are now under way and Chief William J.

CITY PLAN BOARD IS
 ANNOUNCED BY MAYdR
Commission Was Created
 Under New Amendment ' to Charter.

Announcement of the personnel o1 ] the city plan commission was made ltoday by Mayor aQuigley. The com 1 mission will consiS< Of the mayor, City ] Engineer William H. Hall, John J, l Higgins, ex-Mayor George M. Lah- ders, Chairman w. F. Brooks of the
 park board and Henry L. Broggi.
 Mayor Quigley. believes fAet this
 commission will be, ,one ofZ Ehe best
 Of his admiristratfon. Afr Higgins
 is the one who first suggested tne
 idea of having city plan commis- sion. He had seen it tried out with success in other cities and believed it an ideal branch of the government for a city that is growing as fast as New Britain.
 The appointment of MT. Brooks will most likely Smeet with favor As chairman of the park board. he. will have no small role in the develop ment of the city in the next few years. He is one of .the best land scape artists in the east and should prove to be a valuable member of the commission. Mr. Broggi is an estimator employed by Peter Suzio, load builder and contractor, and his knowledge of grading. etc., should be or great value 10 the commission. E.X-Mayor Landers has shown in the past that he is a public-spirited cit izen and he will be welcomed to the board by his fellow commissioners. Mayor Quigley believes it will be necessary for MT. Landers to resign from the council before accepting the appointment to the city plan commis- sion. Engineer Halls value to the new board is found in his general knowledge of engineering and of the + Lroblems that confront the board of public works in the development of the city.
 Under the charter amendment, this co mmission will have no powers other than those of an Advisory nature, the i common council being required to pass on its recommendations.

 / BRYAN'S ACTION
Vorwaerts ">~ Says Resignation Will ss |.
 Mean that Note Will Almost Be
 Ultimatum to Germany. %a, >.

Berlin, June 10, via London, 2:15 p. m-The Vorwaerts, and the Tages- zeitung, are the only morning news papers in Berlin which comment upon the resignation of Wm. J. Bryan.
 The Vorwaerts says MT. Bryan all ways has been a European peace en- thusiast and that his leaving the cab inet now means, undoubtedly, that the note in he form planned by President Wilson will not lack much of being an ultimatum to Germany. r" We there fore have to do here With an event of the greatest importance" says the Vorwaerts. ... >'>
 Count Won Reventlou, in the .Tages- zeitung repeats that Germany cannot recede in any degree from the stand point already taken, no matter what President Wilson's note my demand Even, the. imputation that Germany could consider abandoning her sub marine warfare, this writer declares, would be considered by the entire country as an insult.
 Die Post, in it's issue of today, calls attention to the sailing of steamships with both munitions of war and pas sengers on board, saying in this con- nection: Our submarines must de- stroy these munitions, and whence they come and who does good busi- ness in them is immateriaL
 If England does not hesitate to car ny passengers on board the same ship with this war materials it is not pos sible for us to fulfill our duties with out destroying innocent human lives. The re&xpnsibility Tor the mishap rests on England alone."
