barge.

Washington, D. C.-Secretary Of
State Bryan made public the text of
6.000-word letter written by him to
Chairman William ]. Stone, of the
Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
tons, defending the Administration
against the charge Of having shown
Partially toward Great Britain and
her allies in the present European war.
The letter, inspired by one from
Senator Stone setting forth numerous
complaints and charges relative to the
attitude of this Government, was pre-
pared under the direction of President
Wilson. under 10 separate headings,
corresponding to Senator Stones
summary of the various charges, to
which Secretary Bryan makes cate
gorical answers.
Answers Charge OF Partially.
In the concluding paragraph Of the
communication he thus replies to
charges that the Administrations
course has favored England and her
Allies, to the hurt OF German and Aus
tria-Hungary:
IF any American citizens, partisans
of Germany and Austria-Hungary feel
that this Administration is acting in a
way injurious to the cause of those
countries, this feeling results from the
fact that on the high seas the German
and Austro-Hungarian naval power is
thus far inferior to the British. II is
the business of belligerent operating
on the high seas, not the duty of a
neutral, to prevent contraband from
reaching an enemy.
Those in this country who sympa-
thize with Germany and AuStria-Hun-
gary appear to assume that some obi
CATION rests upon this Government, in
the performance of its neutral duty, to
prevent all trade in contraband and
thus TO equalize the difference due to
the relative naval strength of the bel
ligerents. No such obligation exists
1t would be an un-neutral act. an act
Of Partially on the part of this Gov
eminent. to adopt such policy If the
Executive had the power to do so. II
Germany and Austria-Hungary cannot
import contraband from this country
it is not. because of that fact, the duty
of the United States to close its mar
sets TO the Allies. The markets of
this country are open upon equal terms
to all the world. to every nation,
belligerent or neutral"

Stirred Annapolis.

Although the furore incident to the
raid made on the Patuxent Rod and
Gun Club at Meyers Station by Mar
shall Carter and force of so officers
of the Baltimore city police force is
gradually abating. much unfavorable
comment is still heard in Annapolis
as to how a score of the 14S men
gathered in could have made good
their escape from Sheriff Potee and
his assistants, states dispatch from
Annapolis.
Following the suggestion made in
the public declaration of Governor
Goldsborough, reports were current in
Annapolis that Judge Brashears would
recall the October grand jury to con-
duct rigid investigation, but no

All OF the Passengers Escaped From

Seventy-six passengers and the "a

sci when it burned to the waters edge
of the mouth of the Magothy river.
That some of the passengers may
have lost their lives was at first feared
because some jumped into the water
to escape from the burning boat.
officials Of the B., C. and A. Line, to
which the boat belonged, are con-
t1dent no lives were lost.
The story of the rescue of the pas
sengers and crew in the darkness Of
early morning, their landing on the
practically uninhabited shore Of Anne
Arundel county, near Mountain Point,
their efforts to prevent freezing by
building big bonfires and their subse-
Quent taking off by ships of the Cheaa-
jeake Line. which brought them to Bal
timore, is full of thrills.
The grave danger in which every
man, woman and child on the vessel
found themselves when aroused to
their peril was minimized by the ad-
mirable conduct of the officers and
crew of the doomed ship. who managed
the rescue work with display of COM
posture and consideration for the pas
sengers' safety that very nearly spells
heroism.

New York.-Alfred Moves, English
poet and peace advocate, and visiting
professor of English at Princeton
reached here aboard the Lusitania.
THE watchword OF even the most
pronounced militarists among the
Allies" said Mr. Noyes, is never
again. When the settlement finally
comes there will certainly be a grim
attempt to establish some sort of col
lective responsibility among nations
so that treaties cannot again be torn
up with impunity. The whole thing
reduces itself to whether we are going
to have international wars In the
future.
