confdants. is the feeling in Berlin tow
ard the United States, the extent TO
which Germany will go TO avoid war
with the United States, and the Ger
man attitude in the Lusitania case.
Colonel House cut short his visit TO
Berlin by several days, and his hurried
departure from the German capital has
never been explained to the complete
satisfaction Of officials here.
The President is most anxious. 70
know 10 what extent German officials
are blufing in their published declara-
tons that Germany is through making
Concessions" and that the United
States must be satisfied with what has
been offered "a satisfaction for the
Lusitania. II these utterances are 10
be taken al their face value. the Presl-
dent believes a break IN relations Is
threatened "a he is determined not 10
acquiesce in Germany's new submarine
campaign, considering Il reputation
Of Germany's assurances that 1ners
would not be torpedoed without provld-
ing for the safety of on-eombatants.
Colonel Houses impressions about
the possibility of peace IN Europe are
also expected 70 be interesting. Wnlle
il IS deniVl that the colonel went on a
peace mission. II is realized that IN MS
talks with foreign officials he could not
have helped discussing the subject and
obtaining from them some hint of the
terms on which they would be wiling
to terminate the hostilities.
The President will also confer with
Colonel House on the domestic political
situation. II is generally understood
that the man who selected the original
Cabinet will be consulted about ming
the vacancy that now exists, and Colo
mel House may therefore choose the
successor to his original appointee as
Secretary OF War.
II has become more and more ap-
parent from day to day that the fresl-
dent will need Tammany both in Con
gress ard next fall. His failure 10
name postmaster 10 succeed the time 70
expired Republican who continues to
hold Office in New York has not aided
the strained feeling between the white
House and the Wigwam. At one time
MIR. Wilson had decided 10 pick Joseph
Johnson, Tammany man. out the
storm of protest that greeted the un 70
official announcement drove the Presi-
dent TO cover, and the commission has
since lain unsigned on his desk. Tho
President is between two free, facing
on the one hand popular disapproyal
and on the other the wrath OF the
Tiger, and Il is assumed that he will
look to Colonel House to guide him 70
a position of safety.
Support Of Tammany men IN the
House is eagerly sought at the present
time, when the Administration is eX-
erting every effort TO whip its organ.
,yu ha a "A
merchartmen resolution, and the Presi-
dent realizes that he must hold out AZ
least an assurance that the New York
postmastership plum will fall into the
Tammany basket. At the same time he
wants TO avoid raising political issue
while he is appealing 20 Congress on
patriotic grounds. II Colonel House
can show him how to square this circle
il will not be the least valuable Of his
acts as assistant President Of the
United States.

armed liners will be destroyed without
warming.
Secretary Lansing has delayed his
reply while waiting for the appendices
20 the German decree. which were de
layed in transmission. but arrived on
the steamer Rotterdam to-day. The
appendices contain copies of the Brit
ish secret orders which. Germany al
res. show plainly that British mer-
chantmen carry armament for aggres-
sion.
The State Department holds this ale
cation TO be unfounded. The instruc
tons direct merchant commanders 20
fire on submarines that appear in their
path, but. according 10 Secretary Ian
sings view, such action is purely de
fensive, as IL must be presumed that
a submarine appearing in the path OF
an enemy merchantmen intends con
fiscation and destruction OF the mer-
chairman. Unless. therefore. British
merchant vessels were instructed 10
leave their regular course to seek out
German submarines and destroy them
they cannot be considered aggressive.
To Await Action in House.
II il probable no action will be taken
by the State Department until the
House of Representatives has ayted on
the Presidents demand for vindica-
tion of his position. IL Is believed,
however, that Count Won Bernstorif will
have his answer before the end Of the
week.
The Lustania case. after the Secre-
tary reiecss the ambassadors offer. will
be further from settlement than ever
Only the complete withdrawal of the
new submarine order, II is declared,
will renstate the ambassadors original
promises and make it possible for the
two governments 70 reach an agree
ment.
Meanwhile il Is doubtful If a crisis
will be forced unless Germany COM
mits some overt act in carrying out the
new submarine policy. The State De-
partment holds that the destruction of
an armed merchantmen without warn
ing. even if no Americans are lost. will
raise a serious issue, as IL will demon
strate Germany's willingness 20 risk
break for the sake of the campaign Of
"terribleness" that has just been her
aided.
