10 the American note suggesting that
Germany and Great Britain agree on
n nlan TO lessen danger TO neutrai
shipping in the war zone was maze
public here to-day. 1t follows:
"Thc imperial German government
have taken note with great interest
of the suggestion Of the American gov
eminent that certain principles Tor the
conduct Of maritime war on the part
OF Germany and England be agreed
upon for the protection OF neutral
shipping. They see therein new eyi-
dencc of the friendly feelings OF the
American government toward the Ger

rocated by Germany.

Quoted according to rules which WIN
out discriminatory restricting one or
the other Of the belligerent powers IN
the use of their means of warfare are
equally corsiderate Of the interests OF
neutrals and the dictates of humanity.
Consequently. il was intimated in the
German note Of the 10th instant that
observation Of the Declaration of Lon
don on the part Of Germany's adver-
saries would create "a new situation,
from which the German government
would gladly draw the proper conclu-
sions.
proceeding from this view. the Ger
man government have careful ly exam
med the suggestion Of the American
government and believe that they can
actually see in il a suitable basis for
the practical solution Of the questions
which have arisen.
with regard 90 the various points
Of the American note they beg 20 make
the following remarks:
First With regard to the sowing
Of mines, the German government
would be willing to agree as suggested
not 10 use floating mines and TO have
anchored mines constructed as indl-
Gated. Moreover, they agree to put
the stamp Of the government on all
mines to be planted. On the other
hand. it does not appear to them 10 be
feasible for the belligerents wholly to
forego the use of anchored mines for
offensive purposes.
Second The German government
would undertake not to use their sub
marines to attack mercantile OF any
flag except when necessary TO enforce
the right of visit and search. Should
the enemy nationality of the vessel or
the presence of contraband be ascer-
tanned. submarine would proceed IN ac-
cordance with the general rules OF IN
