LIMIT Of GERMANY'S
PATIENCE IS REACHED
Must Go Ahead in Course Chosen
Despite United States Protests,
Says Cologne Gazette.

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, February
25.-Berlin newspapers publish a dis
patch from the United States relative
to criticism in the American press OF
Ambassador Won Bernstorf on the
ground that he has misused his diplo-
matte position by attempting to In
fuence public opinion. His position is
described in this dispatch as shaken.
The Cologne Gazette has published
two editorials on this subject. defend
ing the ambassador. 1t attributes at
tacks upon him to the exigencies of
patty politics In America and con-
tinues:
Germany must go ahead in the
course chosen without regard to the
changing currents of American politics.
Otherwise her head will grow dizzy
and her foot will slip.
IF England succeeds in influencing
the American government to enter a
protest" the Gazette adds. I'VE shall
prefer to let the breach come rather
than to yield to protest, and that is the
will of the entire German people. We
have reached the limit Of our patience
as far as America is concerned"

BRYAN HOPES CONGRESS
WILL TAKE SOME ACTION
Message to Representative Urges
Bar to American Use of
Belligerent Ships.

William Jennings Bryan today tele-
graphed to Representative Warren
Worth Bailey of Pennsylvania, earnest
refusing passports to Americans on
belligerent ships would be passed. The
telegram was passed from member to
member in the House and attracted
much attention in view of the strained
relation between some members of Con-
gress and the administration on this
point. The telegram read:
Il earnestly hope that Congress will
speedily announce legislation refusing
passports to Americans travelling on
belligerent ships, or. still better, re-
fusing clearance to belligerent ships
carrying American passengers. No
owner of belligerent ships will claim
that he has the right to safeguard a
central band cargo with American lives.
and no citizen should be permitted to
endanger the peace of a nation at a
time like this. Ours is the greatest
of the neutral nations, and will prob
ably be the mediator when the time for
against civilization as well as against
our own people to become involved in
this war and thus loan our army and
navy to a European monarch to use in
settling his quarrels. If Congress has
the right to declare war 1t certainly
has the right to promote peace by re-
straining citizens from taking unnec-
essary risks. A mayor keeps the people
of his city out of the danger zone dur
ing riot. Can our government AFFORD
to do less when the world is in riot?

Washington.

There is an embargo against freight

Of weeks on all shipments beyond New

goods, government supplies and all
such special classes of freight have

The Washington freight agents of
