SOME SHARP PASSAGES
IN LATEST u. S. NOTE

WASHINGTON, November 3.-At the
instance OF the British embassy, copies
of the latest American note to Great
Britain protesting against intcrferences
with neutral shipping will be handed
the British ambassador and the French
amba sSador in Washington Siinultan-
cously with the delivery of the note by
Ambassador Page to the British For
cirn Office. This is in recognition OF
the fact that France is equally CON
ccrncd with Great britain in the sub
ject matter of the note.
II is learned that Secretary LansinE's
note contains some sharp passa Ses.
and is very emphatic in condemnation
and protest against several features of
the British orders i'm council. Dh;ec-
ton is made particularly to that part
Of the British order in council under
which craiscrs have diverted from their
voyages and detained for long periods
in British ports American vessels bound
for the neutral ports of Northern Eu-
rope.
Though the issues are understood to
be strongly presented by the United
States. they are not regarded rs be-
yond the reach OF diplomatic treatment
1t this stage. II already has been inti-
mated by Sir Edward Grey In the
British Parliament, however, that the
whole subject may he rapidly nearing a
phase when a peaceful and satisfactory
adjustment can he reached only by
means OF an international commission
The American note has been sent to
London by special messenger, and

Driven by her oll-burnlng engines, the

showing OF 2l.0i knots, and an av

of the naval trial board. headed by
Captain II. Ii. Wilson, said the tests
were very successful"
Particularly satisfactory to them. it
was said, was the use of oil on the
vessel as the Nevada is the first bat
tleship of the navy to be supplied with
that source OF power. The oil burners,
ii was pointed out, not only drove the
ship at Il speed in excess of contract
requirements, but also decreased great

proving the battle efficiency of the
Dreadnought by making it less con-

The Ncvcda's average speed was
computed from the five best runs Of

the measured mile course. She was
REQUIRED to show q mean record of

WASHINGTON, November S-An au-
thoritative outline of the status of the
negotiations between the United States
and Germany on the Lusitania case
was obtained to-day.
Germany has proposed to this gov
ernmcnt that the question OF her liza
bility for the payment OF indemnity for
the loss of more than 100 American
lives. as we'll as the amount to be paid
shall be submitted to The Hague for
arbitration.
In line with its general policy of re-
fuSinS to arbftratc questions involv-
ing the lives of American citizens. the
United States mt present is not inclined
TO accept the offer. The position of
this government is that Germany must
acknowledge fully and unconditio nally
her responsibility for the loss OF Amer
leans on the LusItania, and her LA
biiity for indemnity.
Germany has indicated plainly to this
government that disavowal of the
sinking of the Lusitania is out of the
range of possibilities. inasmuch as the
submarine commander who torpcdoed
The vessel was acting under general
instructions which permitted him to
attack British vessels without warn
ing. Germany is willing however. to
tender complete expression OF regret
EXPRESSION OF REGRET
WILL BE ACCEPTABLE,
1t is we'll understood that the State
department does not expect an actual
disaVowal from Germany, and there
iore 1t is believed in official circles
that satisfactory advancement can
be reached on this phase of the sub
)oct. ana that an adequate expression
OF regret from Germany will be ac-
ceptable.
The negotiations on the Lusitania.
which were resumed following the set
tlement Of the Arabic controversy, are
now proceeding smoothly. il is said
and without the possibility OF fric-
tion. Officials Of the State Department
teel they have reason to believe that
Germany Will not insist that the oues-
ton of her liability be submitted to
arbitration. The department under
stands that Germany is willing to pay
indemnity. the only question being
whether she shall make such an Of
FER voluntarily or wait upon the de-
cision of q Hague tribunal. Germany
believes. it is said In official circles
that The Hague tribunal would decide
that she was liable for indemnity for
the reason that The Hague being an
establishment for the encouragement
OF peace. has tendency TO decide In
favor OF neutral as against n bellig-
erent. This understanding Is accepted
rs convincing evidence that Germany
fully expects TO be called upon to pay.

Peace With u. S.

Recognition of End of
Strained Relations.
Especial to The mes-Dispatch.1

WASHINGTON, November 3.-The
true Significance Of the recent meeting
between the Kaiser and Ambassado
Gerard has leaked out from state De-
partment officials. 1t was stated on
good authority to-day that the Kaiser
invited Mr. Gerard to luncheon to give
oticiaL recognition to the fact that
there was an end to all strained rela-
lions between the United States and
Germany. 1t was said the much talk
about strained relations took place
during the absence Of the Kaiser on
military duty.
During that time there had been
gradual but effective diplomatic prog
fess by the two countries. largely due
10 the free and frank conferences be-
tween Secretary OF State Lansing and
Count Won Bcrnstorff. the German am
bassador.
The re-cstablishment OF good feeling
was an accomplished fact when the
Naiser returned, and he. therefore. sent
special invitation to the ambassador
10 meet him. The Kaiser talked for
IN hour with Mr.. Gerard. This was an
unusual concession for so busy. a mon.
arch as the Kaiser

Newspaper Report.

Supcrfiuous ballot boxes were visible
TO voters in all the precincts Of Wythc-
Vile last Tuesday, exciting general
comment. and compelling election Of
fccrS to explain the presence OF those

The explanation given was that mem
bcis of the Electoral Board had read a
report published in one Of the Rich
mond afternoon papers to the effect
that amendments to the Constitution Of
the state were to be voted upon Ac-
cord'ngly. they provided separate bal
lot boxes for this vote when making ar
ranEemcnts FOR the election.
