WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The situa-
ton growing out of the sinking Of
the steamer Marina by a German
submarine, today loomed up as an
issue fraught with the most serious
possibilities since the torpedoing Of
the SUSSEX. With six Americans be-
lieved to be dead as the result Of
the sinking of the British steamer
and no evidence yet to show that
the submarine gave them chance
for their lives, the situation has be-
come extrem ely grave.
Germany las been asked for the
submarine commanders report ON
the affair, while the United States
diplomatic and consular representa-
tives near the scene have been di-
rected to forward by cable all in
formation that can be gathered.
If the evidence finally shows that
the Marina was sunk without warn
ing, the German government, it wa3
agreed, will face the necessity OF
taking drastic action to expiate the
offense One submarine commander
Will nave Deon pTOFeu guilty. VI pl JSS-
cutting relentless and indiscrimtnate'

the penalty for which this govern
ment declared in it's Sussex note of
April 1S would be the breaking of
of diplomatic relations.
Recognition of the gravity Of such
action by a submarine commander
was shown at the German embassy
where it was said the commander
would be punished If found guilty,
his action disavowed by the governt
ment and reparation made.
Today It was made clear that in
asking Berlin, through the American
embassy there, for the admiralty's in
formation on the sinking of the
Marina, 1t was not intended to inti-
mate Germanys submarine pledges
have been violated. Such informa-
ton as Germany may have Is likely
to be essential in the clearing up OF
disputed points in the case.
Because of the large number OF
Americans among the survivors of
the Marina, their affidavits probably
will prove the deciding factor in de-
termining this governments action.
Secretary Lansing has refused to dis
cuss the matter, in the absence OF
definite. proof of just what happened.

ABOARD PRESIDENTS TRAIN,
JOHNSON CITY, N. Y. Nov. New
York upstaters proved themselves
early risers today. Beginning at $50
there were crowds at all stations
where President Wilson's train
stopped for 'howdy do" and an
occasional haadshake from the chief
executive. The first stops were at
Scranton, Dalton, Nicholson, and
New Milford, where hundreds gave
the president q cheer at each place.
There were rarely a thousand at
Binghamton, which was reached at
1850.
Geo. F. Johnson, shoe manufac-
turer, who recently adopted the eight
hour day and came out for Wilson,
boarded the presidential train there
to accompany the party to Johnson
City.
At Johnson City President Wilson
got his best reception Of the early
forenoon. There was tremendous
crowd, including $4,000 workmen
from the Endicott and johnson Shoe
company plants.
The presidents friends expressed
themselves as deeply gratified over

said, but l want to express my re-

last Saturday to celebrate what
think was a very significant thing
the action of the firm OF Endicott,
Johnson and Company, in giving their
employees eight hours, not only for
the reasons generally given. but also
for better reasons, because they re-
gard their men and all their employees
as members of the same business
family with them.
IF that sort of feeling existed
everywhere, there would be no ques-
ton between capital and labor.

SULLIVAN, Ind. Nov. III Re-
his campaign advisors request, a
goodly part of his campaigning from
now on until the finish on November
will be along the Wilsonian lines.
In other words he is going to parallel
the presidents scheme of appear
ances" to the public.
Hughes friends realize the nomi-
nee's voice has just about gone the
limit OF endurance and cannot be
pressed any farther than the present
program calls for. In the face of this
knowledge, they are confronted with
appeals from every settlement along
the railroads which the candidate
travels, for stops of some sort.
The scheme decided upon and
which Hughes has been asked to fol
low is for the candidate to carry out
only his present program OF speeches
during four more days Of stumping,
but in addition to "show himself" as
much as possible.
Such plan was followed yesterday
by Hughes with highly successful re-
suits, but it kept the nominee busy
lodging in and out of the state room
to the observation platform.
Hughes was up early after leaving
Evansville at eight o'clock today and
did not miss showing himself to any
cross road crowds, and there were
lots of them too. Mrs. Hughes was
in all of the appearances" distribut-
ing post cards and shaking hands
when the train stopped long enough.
Despite his tremendous program
since August 1, Hughes voice seems
clear and strong.
Personally he is supremely conh-
dent. but not letting confidence lead
him into sighting any audiences by
sliding over" any speeches.
Here through Indiana, the strain IS
particularly hard on his voice as out
door meetings are necessary because
no halls are big enough to take care
of the crowds he draws. 1t was
Americanism, tariff and false pros
perity upon which Hughes planned to
make his appeal to Indiana voters to-
day on the final day of his campaign-
ing in the Hoosier state. Tonight he
winds up his middle west stumpins
with a mass meeting at Terre Haute
and departs early in the night for
the final whirlwind session in New
York state.
