having 1t published in Switzerland.
To prevent his flight into Switzer-

himself stepped in and ordered him
arrested and placed in solitary confine-
ment until the end of the war. He
was committed to prison by imperial
order. without the semblance of a
trial or investigation. and was not al

the government in the Hungarian
house of deputies were answered with
the statement that the government
could not at this time deal with a
purely military matter in parliament"

the sinking Of the Lusitania. The
action OF the Washington govern.
ment, however, depends almost On.
tirely on whether the Armenian was
chartered by the British government
and was, In fact a transport of war
aboard which Americans would sail
at their own risk, or whether she was
an unarmed merchantmen. In the
latter case. even though carry
ing contraband. the ship should have
been subjected to visit and search
and those aboard transferred to a
place of salty before the destruction
OF the vessel was attempted, officials
hold.
In the absence of conclusive infor.
nation on these points, officials de.
clined to say what effect the sinking
OF the Armenian would have on pend.
ing negotiations between the United
States and Germany. Immediate in.
quiry was directed, however, to Am.
bassador Page at London to obtain
more details and when Secretary
Lansing returns Ambassador Gerard
will be instructed to INQUIRE of the
German admiralty as to its report.
From the messages received II ap-
pears that in addition to the torpedo
at least one shot was fired from a dis
appearing rifle. The consult's report
said the wireless house was taken
by second shot" It was not made
clear whether the Armenian first was
ordered to halt and resisted capture
requiring a second shot or whether
the submarine attacked without warn
ing. The fact that the number of the
submarine was given indicated that
she had come to the surface to make
the attack.
Mules are contraband OF war, &C.
cording to all the lists of the bellig.
erents, so there can be no doubt as to
the contraband character of the Ar.
menian's cargo.
