negroes made confessions which were
substantially repudiated. Heals plead
ed guilty to manslaughter and became
a witness for the state.

He did not so into details. There was
no indication whether the president
had decided Germany's latest proposal
was satisfactory or unsatisfactory.
Not Sickler on Words.
Administration officials let it be
known that a mere choice of words
would not be permitted to stand in
the way of success of the negotiations
and that the United States would not
insist in the use of the word Illegal
or "disavowal' in Germany's acknow1-
edgment that sinking of the liner

American lives was wrong. mas

able to the United States as covering
the same point without humiliating
Germany and having regard for public
opinion in the country this announce
ment was taken as strengthening the
optimistic atmosphere which sur
rounds the negotiations and possibly
leaving open the way to continued
negotiations.
The principal consideration of the
United States now is that there shall
be an acknowledgment by Germany
that the sinking of an unresisting
merchantmen without warning is in
contravention of international law and
that such naval warfare shall be per-
manently discontinued. The German
contention is that such assurances al
ready have been given in the Ara bic
case and that all that remains in the
Lusitania case is reparation for the
lives of neutrals and an acknowledge
ment that it was wrong to destroy
them
GeTmany-s Original Note.
The full text of Count Won Bern
storff's note delivered to Secretary
Lansing September l, 1915, was as
follows:
MY dear secretary: With ref
erence to our conversation of this
morning, 1 beg to inform you that
my instructions concerning our
answer to your last Lusitania- note
contain the following passage:
Liners will not be sunk by our
submarines without warning and
without safety-of the lives of non
combatants, provided that the
liner does not try to escape or Of
fer resistance.
Although / know you do not
wish to discuss the Lusitania
question till the Arabic incident
has been definitely and satisfac-
torily settled, I desire to inform
you of the above because this pol
icy of my government was de-
cided on before the Arabic Incl
dent occurred
4 have no objections to YOUR
making any use you may please
of the above information re
I main, my dear Mr.. Lansing,
Sincerely yours,
u BERNSTORFF.'
At that time Secretary Lansing
would only say lit seemed needless to
make any comment in regard to the
note other than to say it appeared
to be recognition of the fundamental

was quoted as follows:

agred to pay indemnity and all that

made it's new demands which it is i'm

AT the German embassy it was said
that no knowledge was had there of
Secretary Zimmerman's interview.

official, adding:
