4 Fact and Its interpretations.

In this country in 1913 about three
times as many men committed suicide as
women-7,709 men and 2,279 women.
What is the reason for this discrep-
ancy?
We have received the following sug-
gestions: Because men are less afraid
Of death than women; because women
have more sense of responsibility than
men; because women don't drink as
much alcohol; because men evidently
make life pleasanter for women than
women do for men; because you can't
please men whatever you do.

NEW LONDON, Conn, Nov. 2.-The
German merchant submarine Deutsch-
land continued to be closely guarded
at her pier here today. Captain Koenig
stoutly refused to grant plea that
the public be allowed to view his craft,
announcing that none but government
or city officials would be allowed to
enter the enclosure where the little
vessel lies today.
Several bags of mail brought over
by the Deutschland were brought
ashore this afternoon, but little work
has been on removing the general
cargo. Captain Keonig late today ac-
cepted an invitation to a dinner given
in his honor by the New London

WATTS On WHAT
THE KAISER SAYS

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov 2.-State
department officials today continued to
await receipt of the German version
OF the sinking Of the British steamer
Marina, which it is expected will be
transmitted through the American en-
bassy at Berlin shortly Affidavits of
survivors and other data gathered by
Consul Frost and Conusl Skinner were
also anticipated.
Great Importance was attached the
the Athens news dispatch received last
night, saying the Greek government
had been formally notified by Germany
that henceforth the Berlin government
intends sinking without warming all
ships carrying supplies to the Entente
Allies, but so far as could be learned
this afternoon, the United States gov
ernment has received no such notifca-
tion. 1t is generally presumed, too,
that the Imperial German government
would scarcely send such notice to
Athens and omit the delivery of sim
liar declaration at Washington. In any
event, it is stated, the United States
would regard such procedure as dr.
rectly contrary to German pledges Civ

versy, when Germany solemnly pledg-
ed itself not to attack certain ships
