The note opens with the warm
est expressions of friendship, Of de-
sire to spare even enemy civilians so
far as possible from the sufferings
Of war, and of desire to cooperate
with the United States, even before
the close of the war, if possible, to
secure agreements guaranteeing the
freedom Of the seas. The offers
made by Germany to conduct the
war under the rules of the Declara-
tion Of London are referred to.
DRIVEN TO PRESENT POLICY"
All responsibility for the present
illegal methods of warfare are
placed on England, which, the note
declares, drove" Germany to her
submarine policy, in defence of her
liberties and the lives of her sub
jects.
The British policy, the note goes
on, has destroyed the distinction be-
tween war and merchant ships, and
it is declared that had the com-
mander of the submarine which
sank the Lusitania waited til her
passengers were taken off his vessel
would certainly have been sunk. IL
was expected, the note says, that the
Lusitania would have remained
afoat much longer, and her quick
sinking is declared to have been due
to the explosion of ammunition.
Moreover, it is declared that If the
Lusitania had not been sunk the
employment of her cargo would have
resulted in the loss of many German
lives.
Declaring its desire to permit
safe travel by Americans, the Ger
man government then proposes to
guarantee safe passage for Ameri-
can merchant vessels, and for PAS
senger ships if they are clearly
marked for Identification, and il
Germany is notified a reasonable
length of time in advance of their
arrival in the war zone. The Ger
man government confidently hopes"
that the United States will not per-
nit them 10 carry contraband. To
make sure that there are enough
ships TO give Americans adequate
facilities for travel, limited num-
her Of neutral ships, and, if neces-
sary, not over four enemy ships,
may be put under the Stars and
Stripes and travel in safety on the
same conditions.
The German government in aak-
ing this proposal, takes pains 70
deny responsibility for injury to
Americans who venture into the
naval war zone, declaring that they
are in the same position as persons
going into a battlefield on land.

TENSION GROWS
WHEN OFFICIALS
LEARN OF NOTE
u. S. Now Expected to
Assert Her Rights
Under Law.

Washington, July 10.-The arrival
of the unofficial text of the German
reply to President Wilson's second
note on the Lusitania, confirmed the
| forebodings of officials here as to the
unsatisfactory nature Of its prOpo-
/ sails. 1t is believed that the United
States will now necessarily take up
a more advanced position, for, as 1t
has failed to receive the assurances
for which it asked, there is much less
room for further negotiation, and an
assertion of the rights of this coun-
try is likely.
Many of those in official quarters
who have been familiar with Ger
many's proposals as outlined by AM
bassador Gerard in the last few days
are in favor of an emphatic asSer-
ton by the American government
that it intends to exercise the rights
which it holds under international
law. placing upon Germany the re-
soonsibility for any future Yiola-
tion that may cause a breach in
friendly relations.
Feel a Crisis Closer.
The general feeling that the note
would be unsatisfactory and bring TO a
crisis the friendly relations that have
existed between the United States and
Germany developed more strongly in
official quarters as news OF its con-
tents spread. For several days tension
has been renewed. but officials have de-
clined to manifest their displeasure OF
apprehension over the situation, believ-
ing that nothing could be done or said
until the official version Of the German
reply was at hand.
Although prepared for an unsatis
factory response to the American de
mands, officials here were frankly sur
! prised at the character of the German
document. Not only is no concession
granted by Germany that had not al
ready been made in the last note, but il
is felt that the German government j:
