An English View of the Reply

The inconsistencies and misstatcments of tue German reply, pointed by Lord Robert Cecil of the British ministry in Associated Press dispatch yesterday morning defects of the reply which Americans cannot admit unless ready to regard the reply sufficient for break with Ger many, and official Washington is not inclined regard it. On the contrary, the administration is disposed accept reply it's face value and to give a valuation preservative of the peace considerably than the German foreign office wrote into it; it be satisfaction in full of all demands.
 Lord Robert, very naturally does not So regard it. and for that natter probably large majority of Americans do not Such construction. must all agree is violently forced and further wonder what kind of reply il would have been possible for the Germans to make that would have been unacceptable to state department.
 But the feature of the reply to which Lord Robert objects and on which do not recall having observed any official comment, is the condition inn posed on the United States of compelling Great Britain to observe international laws in dealing with neutral commerce the high Lord Robert makes much of the fact that the maritime operations of Great Britain have single neutral life. That may be but the point in the German charge is that those operations infrngcd upon neutral rights rights guaranteed to all neutrals by tlonal agreement and which are therefore offenses not against neutral individuals but against nations themselves. This is a serious intcrna- tiona matter than injuries to property or even the lives of individuals
 The charge contained the German reply is not original with the German foreign office It was made by our state department many months ago in d weak protest to Great Britain and to which other has yet come than the statement that we Americans do not understand international law very well and that Great Britain has prepared for us in orders in- council and rules of the British Board of Trade new aud plain constructions for our edifcaton

TO EXPLORE eARTH's DEPTHS

Considering that the diameter of the earth k eight thousand miles. only scratch the face.
 One of the Lake Superior copper mines has reached depth of 4,5I5 feet; the Spcrembcrg shaft near Berlin, is 3,S0 feet deep; the Schadeoch mne near Merseberg, Germany, has gone down 5528 feet; and the Paruschowitz mine in Silesia had give up operations after 6009 feet had been rcucaed
 The gigantic ropes barely carry their own weight after they reach depth of six thousand feet and are unable to carry carriage besides More over, mining entails turning of diamond other drills, and no power has been discovered to drill at greater depth than six thousand feet and even then several hours required to give the drills a turning movement.
 So far all delving into the ground has had mercia objective; but the Austrian government has promised scientists to allow them to exploit after the war, the Siesian mines for scientific purposes
 Professor Hanauer of the University of Breslau is promoting this investigation and has arranged to have way stations" built along the original shaft, and these can be multiplied needed. Exactly how he intends to meet the temperature conditions has been disclosed Practical men hold that six thousand feet is the limit of depth that be reached in safety.-New York World

In some quarters there is disposition gloss over the more objectionable tto features of the German reply by the assumption that they were not really intended for but for home consumption That is what some of us have thought of the Ameri- can note that called out the reply. There was how ever, no apparent, urgent need why anything should have been cooked up in Germany for home consump- tion This is not, we believe presidential campaign year there and have heard that kaiser has 10 stand candidate for reelection. all times there is less for the German government to go out of it's way to pacfy fool it's people than exists in this country all the time
