CHAPTER Xxx.
THE ESCAPE.

/ have a confused remembrance of
Godfrey STOPPING for an instant above
the body, staring at it, and then, with
a sharp cry, hurting himself through
that open doorway. A door slammed
somewhere, there was a sound of run
ming feet, and before either Simmonds
or myself understood what was hap
pening, Godfrey was back in the room,
crossed 1t at a bound, and dashed to
the door opening into the hall, just az
1t was slammed in his face.
/ saw him tear desperately at the
knob, then retreat two steps and hurl
himself against 1t. But it held firm
and from the hall outside came a burst
of mocking laughter that fairly froze
my blood.
Come here. you fools" cried God
frey between clenched teeth. Don't
you see he's getting away"
Simmonds was quicker than and
together they threw themselves at the
door. 1t cracked ominously, but still
held; again they tried and this time
II split from top to bottom. Godfrey
kicked the pieces to either side and
slipped between them, Simmonds after
him.
Then, in a sort Of trance, I stag
gered to 1t, and after a moments aim
less fumbling was out in the hall
again. / reached the stairhead in time

The employees Of the laundry, con-
scious that something extraordinary
was occurring, crowded about him, but
he elbowed his way through them to
the desk where the manager sat.
"A crime has been committed up

Messages Of Advice
Pour in--Some Urge
War, But Majority
Are In Favor of Peace

Washington May 1O.-Count Won Bernstorff,
the German ambassador, called on Secretary Bryan
today and expressed his 'deep regret that the
events of war had led to the loss of many Ameri
can lives" The conference continued for half an
hour. By mutual consent Secretary Bryan issued
a statement merely saying Won Bernstorff had ex-
pressed regret.
Consul Frost cabled the state department that
the funeral of Lusitania victims other than Ameri-
will be held at Queenstown this afternoon with
a military and naval escort.
The bodies of the American dead, he said,
where immediate embalming was not necessary,
would be photographed and sealed in leaden cas-
kets, for their return to the United States. While
neither Secretary Bryan nor Ambassador Won
Bernstorff publicly mentioned the Lusitania dis
aster by name, it is known the two officials talked
of it officially. -.""H a<.r. ...
When the ambassador came from Secretary
Bryan's office he parried all questions saying he
could not talk, and saying he promised Mr.. Bryan
he would not talk. The public statement is inter
preted as meaning the ambassador had, for his gov
ernment, expressed deep regret not only for the
loss of life on the Lustana. but for the Americans
lost IN the tOrpedolng Of the American steamer
Gulfight, and of one American lost on the Falaba.
The president continued his consideration of
the Lusitania disaster today in seclusion of the
White House. 1t was indicated that he will let the
country know what steps are decided upon in a
few days.
Messages from all parts of the country poured
in urging war, the majority counseling peace.
The opinion developed among the diplomats
that Wilson will express In the policy he pursues
denunciaton of the act as inexcusable under the
laws of the nations, and humanity.
The extent of his action-whether it will go
beyond an emphatically phrased note to the actual
severance of diplomatic relations with Germany
is still undetermined. 4
When the cabinet meets tomorrow the presi-
dent will probably present to his colleagues his
ideas of what the governments policy should be-
It is now certain that the president does not
intend to call congress in extra session This it is
believed, disposes for the present of suggestions
that Germany's action would cause the United
States to be drawn into the European conflict Some
officials intimate that complete severance of dip
lomatic relations until a complete reparation and
an apology is made probably would conform to the
wishes of American opinion.
