of state, in an interview with the
.CarranZa confidential agent, deplor-
ed not having received the observa-

fore American troops crossed the bor-

troops took place in the best OF

Polk were later confirmed on March

Secretary Lansing, "who stated also

Refers To Previous Note
Reference Is made also in the note
to the declaration made by President
Wilson on March &c saying the "ex-
pedition was ordered under an agree

of Mexico for the purpose only of

Germany Denies Responsibility
On the Sussex Case Alone

two elements remained to be proved
before action could be taken. The
first had to do with establishing that
the vessels actually were torpedoed;
the second with the legality or ille-
gality of the attacks. Germany has
admitted sinking three of the ships
and evidence in the possession of the
state department strongly indicates
that in at least two Of the cases the
acts were in contravention Of Am
erican rights.
\ FIimsy Plea
1t appeared to officials from the
unofficial version of the note that
the German government had denied
torpedoing the Sussex solely on that
the commanders reports differed
from photograph of the channel
steamer which appeared in a news
paper. The description of the attack
on the ship admitted to have been
torpedoed and the story of the ex-
plosion which damaged the SUSSEX
appeared to be nearly identical. The
note says the explosion OF the tor
pedo sent against the unidentified
vessel caused the entire forward
part of the ship to be torn away to
| the bridge" The entire forward mart
of the Sussex was torn away.
In spite of the fact that the sus
sex is the chief case now being con
sidered, officials made it plain thai
the next step OF the United State,
would rest on the accumulation Oh
evidence that American lives were
constantly placed in jeopardy in vfo-
lation of their rights.
The German contentious regarding
the attack on the Berwindvale do not
agree with the evidence received by
the state department. 1t is known
that at last two OF the survivors
stated that the vessel was torpedoed
without warming.
1t is understood that there also ia
a conflict between the evidence here
and the German version in the case
OF the Englishman. Germany con-
tends that the ship was sunk "arter

SEAL OF APPROVAL
FROM NICARAGUA
Congress Ratifies Treaty Witt
United States
MONEY PAID AT ONCE
Three Million Dollars for Canal
Route Right and CoaHng station
Goes Forward.

Washington, April 11.-Ratificatioa
by the Nicaraguan congress of the
treaty by which the United States ac-
quires for 100000 canal route
rights and cOaling station on Fon-
SEGA bay, was announced here in a
dispatch received from Managua by
Gen. Chamorro, the Nicaraguan min
ister. The treaty already has been
ratified by the United States sem
ate. xsX 81
Later the state department re.
ceived word of the ratification from
Minister Jefferson at Managua Tho
final vote Tuesday in the Nicara-
guam house. the senate having acted
last week. 1t Is assumed that the
convention was accepted without
amendment If so, nothing remains
to be done to put 1t into operation
except the exchange ratifications in
the usual form.
AS the Nicaraguan government is
urgently in need of money, arrange
ments will be made at once for pIac-
ing the 100000 to its credit.
The next step will be to authorize
the navy department to select the site
for the Fonseca naval station. AL
ready the naval photographers have
made fairly accurate surveys of the
waters of the bay but no attempt has
been made TO find definite location
for the station which is expected to
be of considerable stragetical impor-
tance. During the construction OF
The treaty both Costa Rica and SAL
Eador filed notice with the state de-
paitmont that their interests would
be adversely affected by the location
o@y ahd in each case assurances were
given that these interests would be-
considered and proper compensation
made If justified. 1t is expected that
these claims soon will come under
consideration.
