Calls U-Boat Activity
"Pacifc Blockade" Not
Permitted by Laws

London, Oct. 10. = The Times legal
correspondent, dealing with German
submarine activity off the American
coast, calls it "a long distance blockade
of the British Isles which is utterly
inadmissible in international law"
1T amounts in practice" the cor
respondent adds. Ito a pacific block
ade' of the American coast. A pacific
blockade is a form of coercion adopted
in time of peace to bring a wrong do
ing State to reason. If in the present
instance the United States will tolerate
pressure of this sort, some surprise
will be caused international lawyers"
The Times editorially reviews the
submarine activity near the American
coast, declaring that it raises a grave
and complicated situation between
Germany and the United States.
while it is for President Wilson to
protect the dignity and interests of the
American people," says the Times, sit
is for the allies to make clear that
they cannot and do not regard Ger
man submarine 'frightfulness' as
coming within the recognized laws of
war.

Count Won Bernstorf Says

New York, Oct. 10.-Secretary of
State Lansing. James w. Gerard. am
bassador to Germany. and Count Won
Bernstorff. German ambassador to the
United States, all were in New York
to-day and the two ambassadors were
registered at the same hotel. Score
tary Lansing, who will leave late to-
day for Long Branch to see President
Wilson. was stopping at q hotel a
block or two distant.
The Secretary said to-day in answer
to questions as to whether he would
confer with either ambassador:
Il have no appointments o-day.'
r There were rumors that Ambassador
Gerard might accompany the Secre-
tary to Lang Branch.
Count Won Bernstorff said to-day he
had no appointment to see Mr.. Gerard.
He reiterated to newspapermen his
statement of yesterday, in regard to
U-boat warfare that Germany always
keeps its promises and intends to keep
it's promises"
Am bassador Gerard left his hotel in
an automobile soon after his arrival
there. He said he was going to visit
friends.

U. S. Refuses to Deny
Use of Its Harbors to All
U-Boats, AnsWer to Allies

Washington. d. c., Oct. 10.-The
United States has refused to accept the
contention of the entente allies urging
that neutrals deny the use of their
harbors to all submarines, whether
n merchantmen or warships, Counselor
Polk, of the State Department, an
nounced to-day.
The allied governments in memo
randum to neutralS called attention to
''the grave danger incurred by neutral
submarines in the navigation of re-
gions frequented by belligerent sub
marines" Counselor Polk announced
the departments position, but refused
to discuss the reasons for 1t. The
American reply will not be made pub
lie before the return of Secretary
Lansing from the summer White
House tomorrow or Thursday.
The claim of the Allies that sub
marines are outlaws. as the note
cabled last night from London shows,
brought up the question of whether
the American government may be sued
for damages resulting from the call Of
the German submarine U-53 at New
port before she started on her spec
tacular raid against commerce. Under
the Interpretation of the Allies, the
position may be taken that Newport
was made the base for operations
which. officials estimate. already have
caused at least $6,000,000 damage to
allied shipping and trade.
Any attempt to collect damages,
however, would probably be most Wig
orously opposed by this government,
which holds that a warship has a right
to enter a neutral harbor and that the
U-E3 in no way attempted to make
Newport a base.

Eleuen Vessels Find No
Trace of Missing Crew
From Torpedoed Ship

Newport, R. l., Oct. 10.-The crew
of the British freight steamship Kings
tonian, missing since Sunday, when
its members abandoned their ship at
the order of the raiding German sub
marine in the waters off Nantucket
shoal lightship, had not been heard
from to- day. Eleven torpedoboat de-
stroyers were dispatched to the vicinity
of the lightship by Rear Admiral AL
bert Gleaves to continue the search.
No further report of the submarine
or submarines which destroyed six
steamships Sunday on the transatlantic
lane that rounds the lightship came
to hand to-day. There has been no
trace of the submersible since it's last
victim went to the bottom Sunday
night.
Search for the missing crew. said to
number more than fifty men, was
halted yesterday on receipt of news
that some of them had been found.
There was no confirmation from any
source by wireless and in fact the re-
port was officially denied AS the
men had been afloat for more than
thirty-six hours in open boats, and
probably without food or adequate
clothing, the anxiety on the part of the
destroyer fleet to locate them became
moro intense, especially as the weather
last night became extremely cold.

COMMISSION IS
WINNER in CASE
Pulp Rate Ruling Is Upheld by
Superior Court in Decision
Just Announced

According to word received here
to-day the Superior Court at Phia-
delphia IN an opinion by Judge Hen
derson dismissed the appeal of the
West Virginia Pulp and Paper Com
pany, the New York and Pennsylvania
Company, the d. NJ. Bare Paper Com
pany, and the York Haven Paper
Company from the order of the Pub
lie Service Commission, refusing to
restrain the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and other railroad COM
panies from increasing the freight
rates on shipments of pulp wood to
the mills of the complainants at diff
ferent places in Pennsylvania.
The case was one of the first ap-
pealed and attracted much attention
over the State. The new rates were
alleged 20 be unjust, unreasonable and
discriminating, and the prayer was
for the commission to make an order
requiring the companies named to de-
sist from charging the advanced
rates. When the Public Service Com
mission declined TO make such order,
after hearing evidence on the sub
iect the petitioners appealed to the
Supreme Court.
In the matter of the appeal of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company
from an order of the Public Service
Commission which required the COM
pany to construct at its expense a
switch and side track for the use OF
the Kift Milling Company, which has
a -four and feed mill in the borough
of Sunbury, the Superior Court in an
opinion by Judge Henderson reversed
the order of the commission.

Lansing May See Gerard
Before Going to Confer
With President Wilson

Washington, Oct. 10. - Secretary
Lansing left here last night for New
York on his way to the summer White
House at Long Branch, to confer with
President Wilson on the submarine
raids in the western Atlantic.
1t was regarded as possible that Mr..
Lansing might see Ambassador Ger
ard, who reached New York this morn
ing from, Germany before the ambas-
sador proceeds to report to the Presi-
dent.
Nevertheless it was authoritatively
stated here that Secretary Lansing
had not made his trip at this time or
one by way of New York because of
the ambassadors arrival. He expects
to meet Ambassador Gerard at the
summer white house, however, and
at the conference with the President,
new light of vital Importance will be
thrown upon the internal situation in

taken but only the officers Of the ship
were aware of the danger, though the
precautionary measures soon gave the
passengers an inkling of the facts
The course of the Espagne was chang
ed sharply to the southwark. She had
been heading about due west, expect
ing to reach New York Monday night,
but the changed course southwark
heightened her voyage another IL to
15 hours.
All lifeboats were swung clear from
the boat deck and carefully prepared
for any emergency. Numbers in the
lifeboats had previously been assigned
to passengers while crossing the war
zone outside Bordeaux and each pas
senger had a ticket designating the
number of his lifeboat and the COM
mander. The defensive gun mounted
on the upper deck astern was cleared
for action.
Passengers and crew were perfectly
calm during the preparations and
there was the usual gaiety aboard,
though some of the women passengers
kept their lifebelts conveniently near
them. Madame Sarah Bernhardt,
artists aboard heard and discussed the
reports but showed no evidence of
anxiety.
Through Monday the Espagne zig
Jagged in her course. She was so far
south-140 miles from her usual
course-that passengers thought she
might make Chesapeake Bay. Mon
day night the ship trembled as full
speed was put on and the zigzag
course was pursued. Many remained
on deck last at night, but no hostile
craft was seen. The ship finally reach.
ed the three-mile limit, within which
sanctuary she stayed for the rest OF
her voyage.
AS the Espagne drew into harbor
this morning the passengers gathered
in the f1rst-class saloon and signed O
testimonial to Captain Laurent, ex-
pressing their deep appreciation OF
the judgment of the commander under
the conditions which prevailed.

SEE CHALLENGE TO U. S.

Paris, Oct. 10. - Under the head
ings of "Blackmail' and Defiance"
the morning newspapers print in
prominent position every scrap of
news obtainable about the submarine
campaign on the American coast, ac-
companied by plentiful comment. The
general sentiment of the press is that
Germany is challenging the United
States with a conviction that the
challenge will not be taken up and
that neutrals must see to-day that
they acted unwisely in not "nipping
the submarine warfare on commerce
in the bud"
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1916-10-10

that sent out the U-53. Officials
realize that unlimited possibilities for
developments result from the transfer
of German undersea activities to Am
erica's shores, but as yet these are
entirely eventualities of destruction of
American commerce and Gripping of
American export trade in a purely
legal way rather than actual VIOLA
tions of international law.
The description of the present situ-
alton by the London press as "a
pacific blockade" is not accepted by
officials here. 1t is pointed out that
a pacific blockade Is form of re-
prisals" taken during times Of peace
by one power to coerce another power
In some desired action without an
actual declaration of war.
