SAY U-B0AT HID FROM ARABIC
Survivors Of Steamer Ounsley Declare
German Submarine Concealed
Herself Behind Hulk.

Liverpool, Aug. 23.-According to
survivors Of the steamer Dunsley, tor
pedoed by q German submarine just
before the White Star liner Arabic
was sunk, the underwater craft hid
behind the Dunsley's unsunk hulk to
lay In wait for the larger vessel. The
survivors declare they had been order
ed of their ship and were in lifeboats
whep the submarine concealed herself
from the approaching Arabic.
It 10 stated that when the liner
came close enough to make an attack
possible the submarine submerged,
went around the Dunsley's stern and
launched the fatal torpedo. Survivors
say that the German boat, which came
up alongside the Dunsley bore no
number.
No previous definite statement as to
the fate Of the Dunsley has come
through from London. It was announc-
ed that she had been torpedoed, but
It had not been known whether she
succeeded in reaching port with her
passengers.

DID LINER ATTEMPT TO
RAM GERMAN SUBMARINE7

Washington, Aug. 23.-lt was an
nounced At the state department 0st
Ambassador Gerard will be directed 70
call the German governments atten.
ton to the sinking Of the White Star
liner Arabic and to ask an explanation.
Washington, Aug. 23.-Tension In.
creased in official quarters here when
consular messages forwarding, afida-
Wits OF American survivors of the
British liner Arabic brought definite
information that the vessel was tor.
pedoed without warning and at least
some Americans had been lost. 1t
seemed that but M point remained
to be cleared up-whether the Arabic
attempted to ram the submarine or
whether q change of the liners
course to assist the already sinking
British steamer Dunsley nearby was
misinterpreted by the German SUBJ
marine commander as a hostile ap-
proach.
America in Receptive Mood.
The attitude OF the American gov
eminent for the moment is receptive,
anxiously awaiting accurate details
and reserving judgment as to wheth-
err the action was deliberately un-
friendly" The final decision rests with
President Wilson. The president mo.
tored to Philadelphia t see an ocu-
list. He had consulted Secretary
Lansing before leaving and ~conferr-
ed with him again. No statement
was forthcoming, as details from
abroad were lacking, but everywhere
in official quarters the grave aspects
of the case were discussed. The gen.
eral trend of comment was hat the
American government had reached
the point where it must now decide
whether it would sever diplomatic
relations with Germany.
Word From Survivors Awaited.
In addition to awaiting information
from the American survivors,, the an
bassy in London and consuls, the off,
Gals expect word from Ambassador
Gerard at Berlin to indicate whether
the attack without warning on the
Arabic had the sanction of the Ger.
man government. Should Germany
offer an explanation, stating there were
qualifying circumstances, such az
an attempt by the Arabic to escape or
ram the submarine, the disposition on
Germany's part 20 discuss the case
would in all likelihood be construed
here as a disvowal of any intention
deliberately to violate the principles
for which the United States has con-
tended.
Officials here have found it difficult
to reconcile the act with previous dec
larations from Germany that the pur-
pose Of the submarine warfare was to
prevent the carriage OF munitions OF
val to the Allies.
The Arabic was bound for an Am
erican port and carried therefore nc
contraband.

DECIDES UPON TWO STEPS
Wilson and Advisors Fix Tentatively
Upon Course to BE Taken az
to Germany.

Washington. Aug. 23.-Before the
last note to Germany, which was de.
signed to terminate the diplomatic
interchange regarding the submarine
issue was cabled to Berlin, the Presi-
dent and his advisors deemed it wise
to fix tentatively upon the steps that
would be taken if Germany disre-
garded the warning then given.
Although no intimation was given
that the government had any suspic-
ion that the German government
would commit a breach of the prin-
ciples stated by the United States,
the fact was that the actual decision
al reached at that time, SO that the
future relations Of the United States
with Germany were made to depend
entirely upon the conduct of the lat
ter nation.
Decide Upon Two Steps.
According to the best information
secured in the interval since the note
vas dispatched, two steps were de-
cided upon tentatively. These are:
First-the severance Of diplomatic
relations step which the president
may take upon his own constitutional
authority.
Second-Congress to be called into
session Immediately to receive full
information from the executive branch
of the government as to the acts OF
Germany SO that 1t may exercise its
prerogative deciding what further
steps II any shall be taken to main.
tain the honor of the country and
protect the rights Of its citizens.
National Defense Program.
It Is believed that the first move
the president would make after SUBJ
hitting the issue to congress would
be to present his national defense
program.

London, Apk. 23.-At least hye pas
sengers, two OF whom were Ameri.
cans, and 40 members of the crew
lost their lives when the White Star
liner Arabic was sunk by a German
submarine on Fastnet. Nine other
passengers are missing and are be-
lieved to have persisted. The two
Americans, who went down with the
ship, were Mrs. Josephine Brugeire
Of New York and Edmund T. Wood.
Mrs. Brugeire was thrown into the
water and was kept afloat for some
time by her son, Louis, who was
forced to relinquish his hold when he
was struck by a piece Of wreckage.
Nothing was seen of Wood after the
steamer was struck.
Most of the missing members OF the

They remained at their posts and
went down with the ship.

Pierre.-The final figures of state
population for the 1915 census shows
q total of $50, 765, or only 1923 less,
than for the 1910 census. AS there
was a heavy exodus of people from

five years, they having proved up"

the increase of new population in the.
