lowing: A steamer belonging to one OF
the neutral Balkan states was caught
laden with benzine and naphtha by an
Italian warship. The captain of the
steamer confessed that he was waiting 10
deliver the cargo to German submarine.
The naval commander thereupon took
possession of the vessel. manned il with
a crew OF his own blue jackets disguised
as ordinary seamen, and armed the ship
with machine guns. Then he set out to
keep his appointment. Precisely at the
hour and spot arranged the periscope
was seen emerging from the surface.
Greetings were being exchanged when
the commander of the steamer stepped
forward and cried, "Take your choice
surrender or be sent to the bottom" The
disappointed Teutons chose the former,
and, with their craft, were lowed TO z
well-known naval port.

GERMANY'S answer 10 President Will
sons second communication concerning
the sinking of the Lusitania and the free
dom OF neutral waters has been received
by our government and made public. II
is very unsatisfactory, in that there is no
disposition TO agree to the demands OF
our government that neutral vessels and
passenger ships shall sail the seas I'M
molested by submarines. Germany makes
impudent proposals guaranteeing the safe
passage OF vessels on terms which she
alone shall dictate, which are wholly at
variance with the contention OF President
Wilson that the seas shall be entirely free
and subject to the regulations of no gov
eminent.
The press of the country is practically
united in its condemnation of Germany's
stand, and the people generally disap-
prove. The President and his advisers
are taking time TO study the text of Ger
many's note and to formulate reply, as
it is realized that the situation is very
serious one and liable to lead to trouble
some complications.
II is gratifying TO note that the people
OF the country have full confidence in the
wisdom and patriotism of the President
and are willing to trust the matter to his
judgment.
