ARABIA not WARNED,
SAYS LLOYD'S REPORT
State Department Officials at High Ten
sion Over Ships Loss.

The State Department received a dis
patch yesterday, based on the Aoyd's
report stating that the British Penin-
sular and Oriental steamship Arabia was
sunk In the Mediterranean without warn
ing on November 6. All the passengers
were rescued. but two engineers are miss
ing. The Arabia carried armament, and
had two American passengers
Tension is high IN administration cir
cles over the recent attacks by subma-
rines upon merchant vessels, which In
several instances are reported TO have
been in violation of Germany's pledge to
the United States.
The State Department made it plain
that this government will hold Germany
to a strict accountability for attacks
without warning upon armed merchant
men. with Americans aboard.
Both the British steamer Marina, which
had on board several Americans. six Of
whom perished. and the Arabia. which
carried two Americans. who were res
cued, were armed. Both were reported
to have been attacked without warning.
Germany has declared armed merchant

men TO b. war vessels. Holland refused
to admit them into her ports and classi-
ned them as ships OF force. The United
States. however, maintains that such ves-
sells are peaceable merchantmen, al
though each case is TO be decided on its
own inertia
The case OF the Arabia resembles in
many particulars that of the Persia, also
OF the Peninsula and Oriental Line, en-
cept that an American consul lost his
life on the latter ship.
The nationality Of the submarine which
attacked the Arabia has not been re-
ported, and It is possible mystery will
shroud 1t as in the destruction of ths
Persia.
II was indicated at the State Depart
ment that inquiries would be instituted
into the reported attacks upon the Amer.
Jean Hawaiian steamship Columbia. which
sent out wireless calls while being shelled
by submarine, and the Philippine linel

submarine.

response to fits request to Berlin for In.
