Germany viii Make Exceptions for
Liege-Bryan Accepts View.

WASHINGTON. Jan. %. - The
United States has accepted the Ger
man foreign office view that Germany
cannot permit United States consuls.
or the cOnsuls of other nations to act
as such in the parts of Belgium now
controlled by German military au-
thOrities.
The notification of the United
States of this attitude of Germany
came TO the state department Nov so
last. There has been official CORE
spondence on the subject with the
German government.
In Teply TO Germany Mrs. Bryan
said:
This government is not disposed at
this time TO raise the question Of right
OF the German government TO sus-
pend the duties OF United States con-
sular officers within the district occu-
pied and the subject 10 military jur-
isdiction"
The German note indicated 10 the
state department that exceptions
would be made for the present in
Brussels and Antwerp and Liege" Mr.
Bryan has accepted that condition
and will retain consuls for the present
at the three cities named and in
places in Belgium outside of the Ger
man military zone OF operation.

MOTOR BIKE SPILLS
SOLDIER THREE TIMES
British Trooper in East Africa
Has Exciting Time With
Machine.

LONDON, Jan. "a. A member os
the British forces which have been
engaged in East Africa gives the fol-
lowing sprightly account of the eX-
periences in a letter home:
On the Gazi road, 80 miles from
German border.
We are still all safe here. Some
days ago authentic information came
through from Mombasa that $50
German troops had invaded British
East Africa some 60 miles from Nom
hasa, and at point (Vanga) where
there vas only Capt. ROdwell and
seven natives. Volunteers were called
for to ride to Nanga, and subsequently
to patrol the road.
Now the road is one of the vilest
paths possible to imagine. In one
place, some seven miles in length, the
sand is from eight inches to nine
inches thick, in others the road has
been dug out at the side and thrown
up in the middle, to a varying height
of eight feet to 10 feet and only Is
inches wide. In other sections it
winds through eight feet or nine feet
high elephant grass, q narrow, wind
ing little foot patch, which one finds
only through the damage done to the
grass-b blades and stalks through ne
groes passing through, then over
swampS galore, Wading through
small. Shiny streams, reeking with
malaria, through long stretches of
mud which clOds ones boots and
bicycle, and finally over huge eXtents
Give or six miles, Of mangrOve
swamps and wonderful African jungle,
great ferns. cactus creepers and i'm
penetrable scrub
Troubles Begin.
They bought the bike, gave 1t TO
me- and went through in the dead of
the night
There were no maps procurable,
and the path had more or less to be
guessed at 20 miles out in the bush.
Whilst travelling fairly fast the motor
bike fell into a hole, which it was inn
possible in the darkness to see. The
new moon only lasted about two
hours, and had sunk below the hOri-
ION long before The bike flew one
way and l the other L landed on
some bullets which were in my breast

for half an hour. Two miles from

useless for some time to come. At
daybreak I left the machine in a hut
and marched for six and half hours.
I arrived at Thammani more dead
than alive. on the way l met a game
of 50 big monkeys. We passed each
other with mutual respect Then /
came on four armed negroes with
spears and hatchets. They were on
our side so ] didn't fire. At Thimoni

two and half hours afterwards This
is the place which is supposed to have
fallen and. believe me, the landing
from that dhow in such vicinity was
q sight TO see.

STEAMER SINKS;
ONLY ONE Lost

NORFOLK. w. Va, jan 20
Rammed by an unidentified schooner
just before dawn today, the Amer
ican-Hawaiian steamer Washington
ian was sent TO the bottom of the
Atlantic within seven minutes. The
collision occurred off Fenwick Island.
Lie boats from Lightship No. -,
which is stationed at Fenwick Island,
fastened to the scene of the disaster
and succeeded in saving all but one
of the crew
The steamer, which was vessel of
4,064 tons. was bound from San Fran
cisco to New York. She was due in
New York tomorrow.
The early reports from Lghtship
No. y gave no information as to the
fate of the schooner which rammed
the WashingtOnian.
Because of the force of the collision
the opinion was expressed in marine
circles here that the schooner had
also been badly damaged. She hit the
Washingtonian such a terrific blow
that the steamer began to sink imme-
diately. Members of the crew took
to the Ifeboats. The time was too
short, however. for all TO escape in the
boats and some were compelled TO
leap into the icy water.
Fenwick Island, off which the col
lision occurred. is off the east coast
of Maryland, 20 miles south of Cape
HenlOpen.
The Washingtonian was built in
1914 by the Maryland Steel Co, at
Sparrow Point. Md, and was owned
by the American-Hawiiian Steamship

SHIPS CAP TAIN
AMONG RESCUED
Commander of Cruiser BIueCh-
er, Sunk in North Sea, Lands
SafeIy-BritOnS Impatient at
Lack of Details.

LONDON, Jan. 26.-General salts
faction was expressed here over the
news that Capt Erdman of the Ger
man cruiser Bluecher, had been
among the survivors of that vessel
saved on Sunday and that he had been
landed at Leith with members of his
crew. Capt. Erdman is regarded as
one of the ablest officers in the Ger
man navy and comes from distin-
guished family.
The reiterated assertions in Berlin
that one or more of the British ships
engaged in the North sea battle had
been sunk, are beginning TO wear on
the patience or the Britons Though
these claims are generally regarded
as being given out for home con-
sumption in Germany, the British
public believes that more official de-
tails of the conflict might be given out
a statement by the captain of a
Dutch trawler, the Erica, at Ymuiden,
and telegraphed here, says that he
saw two British ships struck by Ger
man shells, but neither was seriously
damaged. These are the only details
of the battle received here from any
source except Berlin.
mat German mine layers nave set
traps off the north coast of Ireland
for British warships is indicated by
an announcement that the armored
merchant vessel ViknOr has been lost
off the Irish coast and that bodies and
other wreckage have been washed
ashore. Though the official announce
ment said that she might have either
foundered or been sunk by a mine,
the general belief here is that the
latter was the case, because of an
other ship being blown up in the same
locality.
(This is undoubtedly a reference
to the battleship Audacious.)
The ViknOr carried a crew of 125
men who are believed to have per-
iShed. This vessel was chartered at
the outset of the war TO carry strand
ed Americans home from England.
She was a vessel of 1856 tons and was
built in 1883.
