In the case of the sinking of the Englsh ship Fa-

With regard to the loss of life when the British
passenger steamer Lusitania sunk, the German
Government already has expressed deep regret to neu
trails concerned that nationals of those countries lost
their lives The Imperial Government is unable for the
rest to reject the impression that certain important
facts most directly connected with the sinking of the
Lusana may have escaped the attention of the Amer
lean Government 1t therefore considers it necessary
in the interests of the clear and full understanding
aimed at by both Governments primarily to convince
itself that the reports of the facts which before the
two Governments complete and in agreement.
The Government of the United States proceeds on
the assumption that the Lustana to be considered
an ordinary unarmed merchant vessel The Imperial
Government begs in this connection to point out that
the Iusania of the largest and fastest English
commercial steamers constructed with Government
funds as an auxiliary cruiser and is expressly included
in the navy list published by the British Admiralty.

GERMAN REPLY TO u s. REFUSES TO STOP SUBMARINE WAR
ON MERCHANT SHIPS; LAYS BLAME FOR LUSITANA LOSS
ON THE CUNARD COMPANY-~ASKS FURTHER DISCUSSION
TEXT OF GERMAN GOVERNMENTS REPLY ON LUSITANIA

Special Cable Despatch
ERLlN. via The Hague May 3O.-The text of the Ger
man reply to the American note regarding the sink
ing of the Lustania and other incidents of Germany
submarine warfare made public here to-day 1t is
ollows:
The Imperial Government has subjected the state
ments of the United States to careful examination and
has lively wish to contribute in frank and friendly
manner to clear up any misunderstanding which may
have entered into the relations between the two Gov
ernmens through the events mentioned by the Ameri-
note.
With regard to the Cushing and Gulfight incl
dents the American Embassy already has been in
formed that it is far from the intention of the German
Government to order attacks by submarines ers
neutral ships in the not guilty of any hostile
act On the contrary. most explicit instructions have
repeatedly been given to the German armed forces to
avoid attacking such vessels.
If neutral ships have come to grief through Ger
submarine warfare during the past few months by
mistake it is question of isolated and exceptional
which traceabe to the misuse of flags by the
British in connection with careessness suspicious
actions the part of ships. In all where neu
tral vessel through fault of its has come to
grief through German submarines fers according
the facts ascertaned by the German Government
this Government has expressed its regret at the unfor
tunate occurrence and has promised indemnifcation
where the facts justified it. Germany will treat the
cases of the American steamers Gushing and Gulfight
according the same principles. An investigation is
in progress and the results will be communicated to the
Embassy shortly.
If necessary. the investigation be supple
mented by call the International Commission of In
auiry, as provided for in Article ILL., of the Hague
agreement of October l8. 1907.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1915-05-31
MUNITIONS TO KILL GERMANS.

Lastly, the Imperial Government must specially
point out that her last trip the Lustania
ler occasions had Canadian troops and munitions of
aboard, including less than 5,lOO of
munton destined for the destruction of brave German
soldiers who fulfilling with self-sacrifce and devo-
ton their duty to the Fatherand
The German Government believes it acts in lust
sef-defence when its soldiers, with the of at
their command. destroy ammunition destined for the
enemy. English steamship companies must have been
of the dangers to which passengers aboard-the
Lustania exposed in the circumstances In taking
them aboard in spite of this the company deliberately
tried the lives of American citizens protec
ton for the ammunition carried and violated the clear
provisions of American laws. which expressly prohibit
and provide punishment for carrying passengers on
ships which have explosives aboard.
The company thereby wantony caused the death
of so many passengers. According to the express
port of the submarine commander concerned which is
also confirmed by all other reports. there be
doubt that the rapid sinking of the Lustania pr
mary due to explosion of her cargo of ammunition
caused by torpedo. Otherwise there all human
probability that the passengers would have been saved
The Imperial Government holds the facts recited
to be of sufficient Importance to recommend them to
careful examination by the American Government
The Imperial Government begs to final state
ments of its position with regard to the demands made
in connection with the sinking of the Lusitania until
reply is received from the American Government and
believes should recall here that took with sat
sfaction of the proposals of good offices submitted by
the American Government to Berlin and London with
view of paving the way for conduct of the maritime
war between Germany and Great Britain.
The Imperial Government furnished at that time
ample evidence of its good will by its willingness to con-
slider these proposals. The realization of these pro-
posals failed account of their rejection by Great
Britain.
