were told, had been mined closely from
the French and English shores to the
points where the men-of-war were sta

DELEGATES BITTER
AT GERMAN BLOW
u. S. Alone Able to Prevent
World Reverting to Bar
barism, Says Schurman.

From 4 star Correspondent u The Tribunal
Albany, May II. Delicacy alone pre-
vents the delegates to the Consttu-
tonal Convention from expressing
their real feelings and views over the
torpedoing of the Lusitanla. They are
waiting until President Wilson has
made an official reply TO Germany.
Among themselves and TO those who
have their confidence some of the
leaders of the convention we'll &C
quainted with international law de-
clare that the sinking of the Lusitania
was Unjustifable and an occasion for
the United States severing domestic re-
lations with Germany.
II is understood here that when the
President makes formal reply to
Germany Ellhu Root. ex-United States
Senator and president of the conven-
ton. will issue a formal statement on
the Lusitania episode. Mr.. Root is not
only a recognized expert on interna-
tional law, but he has been the guiding
mind for the government in many OF
its trying international problems in re-
cent years. Henry l.. StimsOn, exSec-
rotary Of War, will also issue a state
ment.
OF the delegates who would speak
for publication to-day. Edward n.
Smith, of Watertown, a close friend OF
Robert Lansing, of the State Depart
mcnt. used bitter terms in discussing
the affair.
"The Germans" said Mr.. Smith,
fought TO be treated as outlaws. They
have proved themselves 10 be nothing
else. When a man insults you in your
own house, you order him out. That is
what we should do with the Germans.
There are some things worse than war.
The sinking of the Lusitania is one.
The time comes when words cease to
accomplish anything"
Jacob Gould Schurman, president of
Cornell University, ex-United States
Minister TO Greece and Montenegro and
delegate-at-large declared it was the
duty of the United States not only to
assert its rights as a neutral nation,
but 10 protect them.
american citizens have the right 10
sail on the ships of neutrals or bel
ligerents without having their lives en-
dangered. These ships may be seized
and destroyed, but not until an OPP
portunity has been given to save all
lives. This much for our rights as
American citizens. There is still an
other consideration of vast importance.
The greatest progress has been made
in the last few centuries toward hui
manizing war This has chiefly been
along the lines of restricting hostilities
70 actual combatants. Centuries ago
it was common TO STAY helpless non
combatants, even women and children.
That was barbarism. Unless the
United States can maintain interna-
tional law in all its integrity, there
is danger of the modern world re-
verting 70 barbarism.'
Edgar Truman Bracket. another del
egate at-large. and one Of the former
leaders of the state Senate. said he did
not want TO discuss it just now.
ut is too delicate and too danger
Gus a subject" said Senator Bracket.
1--WE ought TO let the President act
without embarrassment"
Louis Marshall. when asked for his
views. replied:
81 lost several dear friends on the
Lusitania. and do not want to trust
myself to discuss it,"
