while the German reply to the
American note had not yet been de-

Berlin, (ia London), May 29-Germans answer to the Ameri-
can note was delivered to Ambassador Gerard this morning. The
German reply avoids decisive statements in regard to the questions
raised by the United States pending a further exchange of views.
Berlin, (via Iondon), May 29-On the eve of the delivery to
United States Ambassador Gerard of the German reply to the Amer
lean note OH the destruction of the Lusitania, the exact form and
phraseology the document would take seemed unsettled and a few
changes in details still were under consideration.
The answer in substance, however, will embody a proposal to the
United States to defer definite consideration of Germany submarine
policy and President Wilson's demands until the two governments
have had an opportunity to establish just what sort of a vessel was
sunk-whether the Lusitania was a peaceful merchantmen, as as
sumed in the American note, or an auxiliary cruiser. on the British
navy list, mounting concealed cannon, carrying Canadian soldiers
bound for the front, as well as q cargo Of ammunition and war sup.
plies, as indicated by information the German government claims to
have.
1t will be in effect an invitation to define the terms to be used
in the argument before proceeding with the discussion. Germany
believes it unnecessary to take up the question Of disavowing the
sinking of the Lmsitania or disseminating submarine warfare in gen.
eral until the two governments reach an agreement upon the essen
