 FIRST DISCUSSED
WHETHER THE AMERICAN SHIP GULFLIGHT WAS ToRPEDoED
 OR RAN INTO A MINE.
President Wilson Discusses With Cabinet the Situation and Indicates Slow Procedure in the Matter.

Washington. May 4-President Will son discussed briefly with his cabinet today the torpedoing of the American steamer GuIrieht off the scilly Islands but In the absence of a de-. tailed report on the incident no polic5 was formulated
 Messages received from American Consul Stephens at Plymouth, and Consul General Skinner at London, added little to the information pre- viously obtained. Both were in. st-ucted today to get complete state meuts from members of the s3ips crew and to gather sucI evidence of a technical nature concerning the damage done 10 the ship as could be learned by an examination of the yes- SC. on ts arrival in port.
 Officials want to establish beyond doubt whether the vessel was struck by a torpedo or a mine, and if pos sIble the nationality of the explosive. Secretary Bryan stated today that until these facts were in hand no pre- dictions could be made as 10 the course of the United States govern ment.
 Thus far it is known only that a submarine was sighted by one of the officers of the Gultight 25 minutes before the attack. and that the sub marine submerged immediately. No proof has been reported to establish that the submarine then sighted com mitted the attack or what its na- tionality was.
 Nor is there information available to snow whether the Gutlight flew the American flag at the time, or what colors were shown by the two British patrol boats which are said to have accompanied her.
 To enable the German government to present any information it may have. Secretary Bryan explained that an inquiry had been directed to Ambassador Gerard This action, he said should not be construed as i'm plying that the United states as sumed that a German submarine had attacked the Guflight
 Naval officers here think it will not be difficult to establish whether the damage to the Gulflght was caused by torpedo or mine when the yes sel had been lowed into port. Some think it will be possible to determine from the nature of the damage the nationality of the explosive.
 Charles C. Short, the wireless op- orator. who jumped overheard 10 his death when the Gulflight was torpe- doed, learned wireless telegraphy while serving in the Philippines as an enlisted man in the army signal corps. He was a son of Mrs L. A. Short of Chicago and was 22 years of age. He was discaarged at Fort Bay ard, N. M., last October with an eX- cellent record
