NEW TACK
 IS TAKEN
 BY LODGE

NORTH ADAMS, Mass, Oct. 91.- The alleged weakening postscript to the Lusitania note to Germany regard ing "strict accountability was again referred to by Senator Lodge here to- night.
 ''The president of the United States has denied that there was any post script to the Lusitania note and we are all bound, of course, to accept the presidents denial just as he makes it, " said Senator Lodge.
 q need hardly say," he aded, "that I would not willingly bring an un- founded charge against anyone high or low and if misled into doing so l should be quick to retract it. The president makes one mistake; the statement which he characterizes as untrue. that there was such a post script, was not mine, but was made by MT. Breckenridge, a former assistant secretary of war, according to the evil dence of two witnesses, both gentle men of high character, responsibility and veracity, and Mir. Breckenridge was in a position to know, if, as he IS reported to have said, he had seen the postscript. Bearing in mind the pub lie and hitherto uncontroverted fact that Mir. Bryan had informed the Aus tro-Hungarian ambassador that the strict accountability note of May 15 meant nothing, which fact was at once cabled by the ambassador to Der lin, it seemed to me that MT. Breckin- ridges statement, as testified to by two independents, ought properly to be laid before the public.
 "The president, it will also be ob- served, says that the clause proposing arbitration was suggested and that after consideration he rejected it. This suggestion, rejected by the president and which covered the exact proposi- tion said by MT. Breclinridge to have been embodied in the postscript, may have been what Mr. Breckinridge had in mind when talking to Dr. Bailey and Mir. Jeffries about the postscript which was rejected without having been referred to the cabinet and it may also have been the reason for Mir. Bryan's statement to the Austro-Hun- earian ambassador that the note meant nothing.
 q would also call your attention to a statement by MT. Charles Warren, a Republican presidential elector of New Jersey, who states that he was told by a member of President Will sons official family that the propo- sition to arbitrate the loss of life on the Lusitania was to be embodied in a note to Ambassador Gerard and was not to be a postscript to the strict accountability note.
 "As I have previously pointed out, the suggestion for a proposition of ar bitration to accompany the strict ac- countability' note, whether as Q post script or as a separate note, and the methods of it's suggestion, considera- tion and rejection are only of interest as throwing light on the manner in which our foreign relations have been dealt with by this administration. This question of the arbitration proposition does not in the least alter the essen | tial fact that the strict accountabii- tv' note meant nothing, as Mir. Bryan declared to the AustrO-Hungarian am bassador and as events since that time have painfully demonstrated"

{. ]. P. MEXICO POLICY WAS 4
 RABBIT POLICY

Official records, showing that the late Republican administration did not even protect Americans upon Amer ican soil, reveal the partisan nature of the attacks by Candidate Hughes and other Republicans upon the Wilson ad- ministration on the pretext that it has not protected the lives of Americans in Mexico. When Mexican bullets were flying thick in Douglas, Ariz., and five Americans had been dangerously wounded, President Taft, in a tele- gram to Governor Sloan of Arizona, advised "the people of Douglas to place themselves where bullets can not reach them and thus avoid casualty"
 On April r, 1911, Governor Sloan of Arizona wired the following mes sage to President Taft:
 Douglas, Ariz., April IT, 1911. ''The President, Washington, D. C.:
 "As a result of today's fighting across the international line, but with in gunshot range of the heart of Douglas, five Americans wounded on this side of the line. Everything points to repetition of these casualties tomorrow, and, while the federals seem disposed to keep their agreement not to fire into Douglas, the position of the insurrectionists is such that when fighting occurs on the east and south east of the intrenchments, people iv- ing in Douglas are put in danger of their lives. In my judgment radical measures are needed to protect our in nocent people, and if anything can be done to stop the fighting at Agua Prieta the situation calls for such ac- tion. t is impossible to safeguard the people of Douglas unless the town be vacated. Can anything be done to re- liave situation now acute ?
 "RICHARD SLOAN, Governor"
 Such vas tha CT from Arizona, in Q "good old Republican" time; and this was the "G--" al5 vigorous action" which a EcpuiGc1a president, now supporting Hughes on the stump, took to relieve American lives in Arizona from Mexican bullets:
 Rabbit Policy of Hiding Act
 "White House, Washington, D. C.,
 April IS, 1911. Governor Sloan, Douglas, Ariz.:
 "Your dispatch received. Have made urgent demand upon Mexican to issue instructions to prevent firing across border by Mexi- can federal troops and am awaiting reply. Meantime I have sent direcJ warning to the Mexican and insurgen5 forces near Douglas. I infer from your dispatch that both parties at tempt to heed the warning, but that in the strain of the exigency of the con test wild bullets still find their way into Douglas.
 The SlCuaJlOn mlgnL JuSIlIy me IT ordering our troops across the border and attempt to stop the fighting or to fire upon both combatants from the American side. But if I take this step, must face the possibility of resist lnce and greater bloodshed, and also the danger of having our motives mis- and misrepresented and of thus inhaming Mexican popular indig nation against many thousand Amer cans now in Mexico and jeopardizing .heir lives and property.
