WANTS MAIL LET ALONE.
U. S. Sharp In Protest Against British
Interference.

Washington. - The text OF the
American protest to Great Britain
against interference with neutral
mails, reveals that diplomatic and
consular pouches have been treated in
a manner which the United States
considers "yexatiuusly inquisitorial"
The note describes the practices OF
British officials as "unwarranted in.
references" and in urgently request
ing prompt reply points out that "a
strong feeling is being aroused" in
this country by the loss of valuable
letters, while foreign banks are re-
fusing to cash American drafts be-
cause they have no assurances that
drafts are secure in the mails.
The United States declares that par.
eel post articles are entitled to the ex.
emptlons of neutral trade, and denies
the right Of Great Britain to take neu-
tral mail ships into British Jurisdiction
for purposes of search and then sub
nit them to local censorship regula.
tlons. 1t also denies that the British
Government has any authority over
neutral sealed mails on ships which
merely touch at British ports.

WILL CONTINUE
BLOCKADE POLICY
Allies Will Not Try to Make It
Complete.
FRENCH NAVY TO COOPERATE
No Riaht To Embarass NeUtrals
Whose Good VIII, He Declares,
Is Essential To the
Allies Victory.

London.-The result OF the anxious
ly awaited debate in the House OF
Commons on the blockade question is
that the British government adheres
to its existing policy.
A resolution introduced by Arthur
Shirley Benn, Unionist member for
Plymouth that the entire overoceanic
traffic with Germany should be pre-
vented by a blockade, was talked out
and the subject dropped, thus leaving
the position exactly as before the de-
bate, except that Parliament seemed
more converted to the government
policy.
Interesting figures published by the
War Department partly demolished
the elaborate structure raised by the
newspapers, and Sir Edward Grey's
effective speech appeared to finish the
work thus begun.
After the Foreign Secretary had
spoken Commander Bellairs said he
had anticipated that nine-tenths of the
House would be against Sir Edward
Grey, but since his speech he had to
admit nine-tenths were with him. In
fact, after the Foreign Secretary sat
down, the House gradually empued,
and at one time during the debate only
half a dozen members were present.
At the opening OF the debate the
House was crowded, all the business
section being very conspicuous and
the galleries also were filed, notable
visitors being the American Ambassa-
dor, the Swedish and Danish Minis.
ters, Lord Fisher and Lord Stamford
ham, private secretary to the King.
Hereafter French warships will
assist British vessels in blockade duties
in both the English Channel and the
North Sea, participating in the ex
animation OF mails and cargoes.
In future France will be consulted
on all questions concerning the block
ade. ,Joint Anglo-French replies will
be made to any protests on the subject

BERLIN OFFER
IS REJECTED
Proposals in Lusitania Case
Unsatisfactory.
NEW NOTE BY LANSlN G
Will Make Clear To German Foreign
Office Terms United States In
slsts Upon-Has Said
Last Word.

Washington.-Th United States re-
jected the German Governments pro-
posals for settlement of the Lusltania
case. Count Won Bernstorff. the Ger
man Ambassador, was summoned to
the State Department by Secretary of
State Lansing and advised Of this de-
cision.
Immediately thereafter Secretary
Lansing began preparation of COM
munication to Berlin that will fatty set
forth the terms Of agreement insisted
upon by the United States.
Count Won Bernstorff will be called
to the State Department to confer
with Secretary Lansing before the final
terms of the communication are de-
cided upon. The German Ambassador
will then cable the communication to
Berlin, accompanying the communica-
tion with request to his government
for favorable consideration.
The Lusitania question will hang in
the balance until reply is received
from the German Government.
1t was stated in the most author
tative quarters that the question of
whether the Lusitania case is to be
settled rests entirely with Berlin. The
United States has said the last word
Rejection of the German Govern
ment's proposals for settlement of the
Lusitania case was announced after
President Wilson and his Cabinet had
given the most careful consideration
to them at a session lasting more than
two hours.
The point Of disagreement arose
over the language used by Germany in
meeting the demand made in the Lusi.
tania note Of July 81 that the Imperial
Government "disavow the wanton act
of its naval commander in sinking the
Lusitania."
The United States wants an explicit
and not an implied admission of the
illegality Of the Lusitania attack.
The United States also wants more
than an offer from Germany to pay
indemnity. 1t wants an administration
admission Of its legal obligation to pay
indemnity for American lives lost.
Failure of the Lusitania negotiations
at a time when hopes were highest was
distinct disappointment in official
and diplomatic quarters.
Secretary of State Lansing presented
an unusually grave demeanor when
he made an announcement concerning
the Lusitania after his conference with
Count Won Bernstorff. The Ambassa
doris bearing also was grave as he left
the department.

THREE TONS OF
BOMBS HIT PARIS
Twenty-four Persons Killed, 27
Wounded BY Zeppelin.
BUILDINGS SPLIT IN TWAIN
Majority OF Victims Killed In Their
Beds-6ombs Weighed Six Hun
dred Pounds Eaeh-Fire
Engines Give Alarm.

Paris.--A Zeppelin dirigible passed
swiftly over a section OF Paris Satur-
day night, dropping a dozen great
bombs whose weight aggregated about
three and a half tons, which killed "a
persons and injured 27.
The raid lasted about one minute
and a half, while in the first visit Of
zeppelins to Paris, on March q, 1915,
four of these aircraft we're over or in
the neighborhood of the capital for
nearly two hours. They came at that
time under entirely different atmo-
spheric conditions, being plainly
visible in clear sky. Saturday night
the fog seriously interfered with the
work of the Paris aerial guard.
The fact that only one German ma
chine appeared leads to the belief that
the Zeppelin was making a reconnoi-
tering trip. and the supposition is that
the Germans have in view similar
operation on larger scale.
Warnings of the presence of Zep-
pelin were hurriedly given and the
lights OF Paris were dimIned. AT the
hour of the raid the theatres and cafes
were open and householders had hard.
ly yet retired. Almost Immediately all
the aeroplanes guarding Paris were
made ready, and about 80 Of them took
the air. One of these machines fired
25 shots from quick firer at the in
vading craft, which, pursued by sew
eral of the little machines, sped at top
speed westward. Apparently the
bombs carried by the Zeppelin were
let loose indiscriminately and without
thought of where they should strike.
One of the pursuing aviators said
that the searchlights were useless in
the fog, he himself being hardly able
to see more than "a feet above with the
aid of his light.
The Paris newspapers demand that
measures Of retaliation be taken inn
mediately.

FOR SUBMARINES
Submits Draft Of Rules 10
BelIigerents.
lust AND FAIR FORMULA
Safety OF Noncombatants and Crew
OF Merchant Ships Sousht-May
Intern Armed Llners-clinch
American Principles.

Washington-A suggestion that all
belligerent countries subscribe to a
declaration OF principles governing
attacks on merchant vessels and for
bidding the arming of such vessels has
been made by the United States in an
effort to establish in international law
q general policy disposing of many Of
the vexatious problems arising from
the development of submarine war
fare.
Identical notes have gone forward
asking the various countries at war to
say specifically whether they are will
ing to join in such an agreement. The
declaration Of principles would pro-
vide:
THAT noncombatants may expect
protection under the rules Of interna-
tional law and the principles Of hui
manity when travelling on merchant
| ships; that warning must be given be-
fore a merchantmen is attacked; that
belligerent-owned merchant ships must
obey warnings to stop; that merchant
men shall not be fred on except in
case of resistance or flight; that no
merchantmen shall be sunk except
where II is impossible to supply prize
crew or until passengers and crew are
placed in safety; that merchantmen
shall not be permitted to mount arms"
Favorable responses from the bel
llgerents would be looked on as clinch-
ing the principles of submarine war
fare for which the United States has
| contended through It's extended nego-
tiations with Germany and Austria and
at the same time disposing Of trou-
blesome question recently accentuated
by the arrival at New York Of three
armed Italian merchant vessels. Ger
many and Austria already have agreed
in effect to the proposals regarding at
tacks on commercial ships, and Great
Britain and her allies always have
been understood to be in accord with
the American viewpoint on that sub
ject
officials pointed out that should any
of the belligerents fail to agree with
the proposals, the United States would
have no difficulty in enforcing the prin-
ciple so far as concerned vessels en-
tering American ports. The note IT,
self voices a warning that this Gov
ernment is considering adoption Of a
policy under which all armed mer.
chantmen that enter ports Of the
! United States in the future shall be
considered war vessels, subject to the
established regulations governing in
ternment.
In its note the United States calls
attention to the fact that II has
changed its policy toward mounting
guns on merchantmen since sub
marines began to play such a large
part In naval warfare. officials made
It clear that this change had not re-
suited from suggestions from any
foreign government. but solely from
the changed conditions.
1T was merely from a humanitarian
standpoint" said one high official in
discussing the note, "and in order that
there might be some arrangement TO
save innocent lives" Whatever atti-
tude the belligerents adopt in their re-
plies, it was added, the United States
expects TO stand on the principles It
has enunciated as sound international
law.
