According to the report OF
Commander Schneider of the sub

his affidavit as wei as those Of

good faith of the affidavits of the
British officers Of the Arabic. ac-
cording to which the Arabic did
not intend To ram the submarine.
The attack of the sub

The King summoned NJ. Venizelos this

Germany DSavozvs Arabic
Sinking, Offering to Pay
Indemnity for Lfves Lost
Won Bernstorff Clears Way for Complete Settlement
of Submarine Controversy Safety of Passengers
in the Future Is Assured by the Kaiser


WAsHINGToS. oct. Count Won.
Bernstorn, the German Ambassador,
presented note on behalf Of his Gov
erhment to Secretary Lansing to-day
announcing complete and unconditional
disavowal Of the submarine attack on
the British liner Arabic and offering
to pay indemnity for the American lives
lost with that vessel. This, in the opin-
Ion OF Washington officials, clears the
way for complete settlement Of the
submarine controversy
The Ambassadors note also contained
the important statement that recent or
ders issued to submarine commanders
by the German Emperor are of such
character that the recurrence of Incl
dents similar to the Arabic case is con-
sidered out of the question"
This, 1t is understood refers to an
instruction to submarine commanders
that in all cases of doubt as to the hos
tile intentions OF an enemy passenger
ship. the submarine is to give the pas
senger ship the benefit Of the doubt.
IObuv Ou 0Ae.
This was the crucial point in the
Arabic case. the German Government
having stated that the submarine COM
handler reported that he thought the
Arabic intended to ram him and so
torpedoed her At first the Berlin Off
cials maintained that while it was pos
sible that the submarine commander
had made a mistake. the German Gov
ernment could not under any crcum-
stances accept liability for the conse
quences of his act.
Her reversal on this point was the
result OF evidence submitted to Berlin
by Count Won Bernstorff. which evidence
showed, In the opinion of the United
| States. that the assumption that the
Arabic intended to ram the submarine
was wholly unwarranted by the facts.
A the submarine issue with Germany
now stands Germany has yielded the
following:
A pledge that hereafter no pas
senger ship is to be torpedoed without
warning ard without regard for the
safety OF those on board.
