peror of Japan and other. dignitaries
in that country.
Aifnaro Sato, Japanese Ambassador

tions of Gugleilmo Marconi, the in
ventor to the director of post and

A message from Melville E. Stone,

tions on this new bond of union be-
tween Japan and the United States"

ings to your Imperial Majesty and to
the people of Japan and rejoice in this
triumph of science which enables the

May the day soon come when the
voice of peace carried by these silent
messengers shall go into all the world
and it's words to the end of the world.

SEC. LANE is TOLD TO END
BORDER PLAN CONFERENCE.

Diplomatic Settlement Of Disputes
Arising is Remote Unless Commits

WashingtOn.-Arme with Presi-
dent Wilson's complete approval of his
course, Secretary Lane returned to
Atlantic City Monday determined to
being the session of the American
Mexican Joint Commission to an early
concluSe Jon. He is still hopeful that an
agreeAe nt as to the border situation

dica(e I'd in official circles that the
joint conference in entering on it's
final pr Sc, agreement or no agree
ment.
If the commissioners find it impos-
sible to formulate plan the view
taken here will be that the prospect
of settling border disputes through
diplomacy will be remote. Secretary
Lane is understood to have found
President Wilson, Secretary Lansing
and Secretary Baker in full accord
with him on every point when he laid
before them in a three-hour confer
ence at the White House a review of
the efforts the American commission
ers had made to reach a settlement.
Mr.. Lane said he was we'll pleased

FOREIGN SITUATION
CHIEF STUDY NOW
INTERNATIONAL ISSUES BEFORE
PRESIDENT BOTH coMPLICAT-
ED AND PRESSING.
MUST DECIDE VERY SOON
From Now on President Expects to
Deal With All Foreign Questions
Without Embarrassment and With
out Delay.

Washington. - A portentous and
complicated international situation
now faces President Wilson and for
the next few weeks will engage his
attention and that of his advisers to
the practical exclusion of all but the
most urgent of domestic subjects.
In the last days of the campaign
Secretary of State Lansing frequently
spoke of the necessity of postponing
action on the more delicate interna-
tional questions because the uncer-
tainty of the outcome of the political
contest had a direct bearing on the
success or failure of some OF the adj
ministration policies.
From now on the President ex-
poets to deal with all foreign Ques-
tions without embarrassment and he
is receiving from his advisers sum-
mary of the outstanding issues so
essential to taking stock of the basic
situation which must be met now
that international relations have re-
turned to their place of prime i'm
portance. While it is not evident that
there will be any fundamental change
in policy, freedom from fear that
any move at all would be misinter-
preted as inspired by an internal
political struggle has been removed.
President Wilson and Secretary Lam
sing feel themselves able to act with
a single eye to the international sit
uation and their immediate confer
ences on the Presidents return to
Washington, indicate how pressing
they feel the situation to be.
The President must decide how the
United States shall meet the German
submarine question on that one hand,
the Entente Allied trade restrictions
on the other, whether the retalitory
legislation shall be enforced, whether
the traditional theory of isolation
shall be abandoned for concerted
neutral action, and whether the coun-
try snail have an aggressive or pas
sive policy toward the peace con-
ference; the war after the war, and
the Permanent League to Enforce
Peace which the President has accept
ed in theory. and. during the rest of
the war shall Americas attitude be
governed by a decidd benevolence
in the Interpretation of international
law according to it's own best interests
or shall it be strictly legalistic, regard
less of whom it affects?

that to maintain a position as one of

past in extending short term credits
necessary in the production and trans
portation of goods of all kinds in the
world trade.

London-With the end of the first
stage of the Franco-Serbian campaign,
which resulted in the capitulation of
Monastir by the Bulgars and Germans,
and a dimunitiOn of hostilities in the
Somme region of France, except for
bombardments and isolated infantry
actions, Rumania again has become
the center of interest.
Driving eastward through western
Wallachia, the Austro-German forces
now are reaching out for CralOva, ly-

the Danube town of Orsova, Hungary,
and Bucharest. This maneuver ap-
parently places a menace in the rear

entered Monastir, the town having
been virtually destroyed, according to
unofficial accounts The Entente
forces have occupied villages to the
north of the town and are declared to
be still in pursuit of the Germans and
Bulgarians.
The German artillery on the Somme
front near Beaumont-Hamel and Gued-

Washington.-Inco canvasses

sional districts brought no changes in
the unofficial election results, which
indicate that PIT Republicans, PIP
Democrats and six of other parties
have been elected to the Sixty-Fifth
Congress.
Representative Woods, Chairman
of the Republican committee, insisted
that the Republicans undoubtedly
would control the organization of the
House. A speaker to be elected must
receive majority of the House or
218 votes. Although the unofficial re-
turns show the Republicans to be one
short of majority, they are counting
on the Progressive elected in Mime

Administration Misunderstanding on
Annual Message.

ington.-President Wilson has
decided not to take vacation before
Congress convenes, but may go on
one or more weekend trips down the
Potomac River on the naval yacht
Mayf1ower. He was urged to go to a
Virginia resort for a brief stay, but
reached the conclusion that it would
be impossible.
The President has almost complet-
ed the selection of members of the
traiff commission and shipping board
created by Congress last session and
probably will make an announcement
of the personnel of both before Con
gress meets. He has made but little
progress, however, in the selection of
members of the board to administer
the wOrkingmen's compensation act
for Federal employees.
One typewriter page Of the annual
message to Congress has been finish

ing all of his spare time to this work.

DEUTSCHLAND RAMS TUG
UNAVOIDABLE ACCIDENT OCCURS
AT MOUTH OF THE
HARBOR.
Return Trip of Deutschland Not to Be
Delayed by Investigation in Which
Several Witnesses, Including Cap
tain koeniq, Have Testified.

New London, )nn-The collision
which caused the merchantmen
Deutschland to abandon her return
set when conveying tug, the T. A.
Scott, Jr, was sunk with a crew of
five men, was the subject of Federal
investigation. The United States in
spectors of steam vessels heard
through witnesses of the conditions un-
der which the submarine, slipping out
of the harbOr in the darkness so that
she might submerge in neutral waters
before day break, ran down the tug
which was acting as Ler protector. off
Race Rock, just outside this port. The
testimony came from Captain Paul
Keonig of the Deutschland; from F.
w. Krapohl, his chief officer, and
from Hans Kleese, his chiee engineer.
1t was Civ IN in secret, but it became
known through statements outside the
chamber that the collision was an &C
cident
Survivors who would discuss the
matter were agreed Lat it was due to
a combination of swift currents, which

across the bow Of the submarine and
the darkness which was to be the
Deutschland's medium of safety, but
which instead prevented ready obser-
walton of the danger ahead. Captain
Keonig would say only to questioners:
Its a terrible thing to lose those
good men. feel it deeply. You must
excuse me-"
The Deutschland's return will be
delayed only a few days by the dam
ages which she sustained and not at
all by the fact that inquiry is being
made. Examination of her bow show
ed that three plates had been stove-in
to degree described by some ''as
hole" and others as "a dent"
The men of the T. A. Scott, Jr.,
had no chance for their lives. They
went down imprisoned in the pilot
house, engine room and galley and I'M

posts Their bodies have not been re-
