Washington, May 27.-"Had no
warning and saw nothing"
To administration officials this was
the most significant sentence in the
report received today through Consul
General Skinner, London, from Cap
tain Green of the American steamship
Nebraskan, damaged by an explosion
off the Irish south coast the night of
May 25.
1t was taken as indicating an un-
certainty which promised to make the
incident an unsolved mystery.
If the ship was torpedoed by sub
marine. it was agreed that the attack
was an act of war. Officials admitted
as much after examining precedents.
Sharp Note in Berlin.
The United States has addressed a
sharp note to Germany, it was pointed
out, protesting against submarine war
fare and flatly warning the kaiser that
we could not be expected to do less
than to use all of our powers to pro-
tect Americans. If, with this note
before his government, the German
submarine commander fired a torpedo
at the NebraSkan, it was held that his
act was one of belligerency and A di-
rect assault upon the honor of. the
United States.
1t was considered that as yet, how
ever. there was no evidence this hap
pened.
Green said frankly that he did not
know whether a mine or a torpedo
damaged the vessel. He and his men
saw nothing, though for an hour after
the explosion they floated in their
boats on the open sea about the Ne
braskan.
At the state department it was
stated that Ambassador Gerard had
not yet cabled from Berlin when the
German reply to President Wilson'S S
note might be received. The German
embassy understood the note was
completed, but thought it would not
reach Washington until early next
