Washington, Aug. 23.-Ofticial dis
patches to the state department have
confirmed earlier press reports an
nouncing the British liner Arabic was
torpedoed without warning and that
at least two American passengers lost
their lives when the vessel went down
Whether the attack on the Arabic
was an act deliberately unfriendly"
TO the United States against which
President Wilson warned in his last
the German submarine commander
claims he interpreted as a hostile ap-
proach the change in the liners
course to assist the sinking British
steamer Dunsley which had been tor
pedoed nearby This point, perhaps
cannot be cleared up until Minister
Gerard at Berlin has ascertained what
report the German government re
ceives from the submarine comman-
der.
In the meantime President Wilson
and Secretary Lansing are comforting
over dispatches received from Minis
ter Page at London and are awaiting
further reports
While awaiting the report of the
submarine commander at Berlin Off
cials here are greatly interested in
what Minister Gerard has to say as
to what he may have discovered at
the German capital about the attitude
by German officials there.
Diplomatic Break Possible.
Officials here made no attempt to
minimize the situation. Everywhere
the possibility of a severance of diplo-
matte relations between the United
+ States and Germany was discussed
as likely If it develops the Arabic
was deliberately torpedoed without
regard to the question as to whether
she made hostile approach on the
submarine
The White Star line has given out
a revised list of the missing. Mrs.
Josephine Brugiere of New York and
DR.. Edmond Woods OF GAINESVILLE, Wis,
were the only Americans on the list,
which included twelve other passen-
gers, and officials said they were sat
isfied the final lists will show only
two Americans perished.
All persons accounted missing by
the Queenstown consulate are said by
the White Star Offices here to have
been saved. Officials said that in
their haste to leave Queenstown for
London several Americans probably
failed to register with the consul.
Fourteen passengers and forty
members of the Arabic's crew are not
accounted for in the White Stars lat
est list
Officials believe that other passen
gers may have gone to the home OF
friends in the vicinity of Queenstown

Women Who Drink.
From the New York World.


Such offhand assertions relative to
the drink habit as those made by for
mer Representative Bennet are of little
value. Tipping by women is increas-
ing, he says, whereas among men IL Is
decreasing, and in New York city the
use of intoxicants is proportionately
less than it was twenty years ago
There are fashions in drink, as in most
other things. and as customs change II
is natural that hasty observers should
imagine that some radical departures
have been made. Twenty years ago
few women drank I'm public. but proba-
bly, the sex as whole consumed AZ
much liquor relative to its numbers as
it does today.
Hard drinking used to be associated
with men. The barrooms were for men
exclusively. Now there are establish
ments of many kinds where women are
served. and at most public functions at
tended by both sexes wines are sup
piled and freely used. Many things
have united to discourage excess on the
part of men, but perhaps nothing has
had a more powerful effect upon both
men and women in this respect than
the fact that the sexes now drink to-
gether. thus exercising restraint upon
each other. ...>
