this crime"
After IT is stated taht the jury had the
active cooperation Of Governor harris.

our town and county, knew nothing of
this crime until they heard of the body
being found near Frey's gin in this
county. The city of Marietta and the
county of Cobb We're quiet before this

FRANK SURPRISE
AMONG OFFICIALS
At WASHINGTON
Regarded As Inconceivable That
Germany Now Would Attack
Liner by Submarine
without Warning.

washington, Sept. 5.--Official Wash
ington received news of the torpedoing
or the Allan liner Hesperian by a Ger
man submarine with unconcealed sur
prise, though there was none of the
grave anxiety that followed the sinking
or the Arabic. While comment was
withheld Mt both the White House and
the state department pending detailed
reports on the attack, 1t was learned
that high officials regarded It as
inconccivable that after the assurances
given by the German government last
week. Il German submarine commander
had without warning launched a tor.
pedo at peaceful passenger vessel.
President Wilson and Secretary Ian.
sing heard Of the incident first early to.
day through Associated Press dispatches,
Later cabled reports from Ambassador
Page a~ i,ondon and Consul Frost at
Queenstown announced the torpedoing of
the iiospcrian with loss of about eight
lives. none OF them Americans. Several
Americans were said to have been among
the surviving passengers.
Some significance was alta chod 20
Consul Frost's statement that the Hes
perian carried mounted and visible on
inter-
national law permits merchantmen to
have guns for defensive purposes, partic-
ularly when they are of small calibre.
ana mounted aft. 1t was pointed out that
II the Allan liner acted at all susplc.
iously after being approached, the pres
ence of this gun probably would figure
prominently In the submarine command
ers explanation OF the torpedong.
No one was In Washington to speak
with authority for either the German
or Austro-Hungarian governments
Count Won Bernstorff. the German am
bassador, left last week for the summer
embassy at Cedarhurst l.. l.. happy in
the belief that the strain upon rela-
tons between his government and the
United States had been lifted and that
the way was clear for an AMIGA BILE set
tlcment of all difficulties growing out OF
Germany's submarine warfare. He had
given Secretary Lansing assurances from
the imperial government that German
submarines would sink no more liners
without warning and expected the early
arrival OF formal communication from
Berlin In regard to the Arabic disaster
to make 1t possible for him to begin
negotiations regarding reparation for
American lives lost on the I-usltania and
the Arabic.
Remembering the oral and written
words Of the ambassador as we'll as
the unqualified declaration by Foreign
Minister Won Jagow at Berlin that It
was not the policy of Germany to sink
passenger vessels without warning. Of
ficials of the American government ap-
peared confident that there would he
some satisfactory explanation Of the
statements of her passengers that she
was torpedoed without warning.
