Torpedoed without Warning.

"a careful, detailed and scrupulous-
~ impartial Investigation by naval and
military officials of the United States
has oonclusively established the fact
that the Sussex was torpedocd with
out warning or summons 10 surrender,
and that the torpedo by which she
was struck WAS Of German manufac-
ture. In the value of the govern
ment of the United States, these facts
from the first made the conclusion
that the torpedo was fired by Ger

considers that conclusion substantial

sideration to the note of the imperial

grets to state that the impression

that the imperial government has
failed to appreciate the gravity OF the
situation which has resulted. not alone
from the attack on the Sussex but
from the whole method and character
of submarine warfare as disclosed by
the unrestrained practice of the COM
manders of German undersea craft

sponsible for that act had wilfully vio-

inally negligent in taking none of the

Gentlemen of the congress-
"a situation has arisen in the for

which it is my plain duty to inform
you very frankly.
1T will be recalled that in Feb

government announced its intention
TO treat the waters surrounding Great
Britain and ireland as embraced
within the seat of war, and to de-
stroy all merchant ships owned by
its enemies that might be found with
in any part of that portion of the
high seas and that IT warned all ves-
sells Of neutral as well as of belliser-
