Berlin Not So Cordial.

by Wireless 10 the Associated Press.
BERLIN, November 1.-THE German
newspapers received the news of Presi-
dent Wilson's reelection with skepti-
cism. and generally wait for the final
announcement before again venturing
extensive comment, but appear to feel
little need for revising the opinions
based on the first reports, since at that
time they took the standpoint that il
made little difference to Germany
whether Mr.. Hughes or President Will
son was successful.
The Tageblatt points out that Will
sons election. if confirmed. indicates a
continuation of present policies, with
the possible dropping of such cases as
We're introduced for campaign reasons
President Wilson, II adds. probably will
now devote himself with increased
yigor to the idea of an international
peace organization. which, as the de-
bate in the reichstag main committee
showed. will be received sympathetical-
ly in Germany.
Another favorable aspect of the lat
est news, the TagebIatt concludes is
that the reelection of Wilson will pre-
vent return by the United States TO a
high tariG system and will be helpful
to future Cerman-American commercial
relations.

GERMANS NOT so CORDIAL

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, November lin an ed
itorial on the result of the presden-
tial election in the United States the
Daily News regards President wilson's
election as a triumph both for his per-
sonality and his policies. The news
paper adds:
in this country it is inevitable that
predominant stress should be laid on
President Wilson's attitude toward
the European war, and it will be
learned with general relief that the
United States will be guided in the
four critical months ahead not by
defeated but by commissioned
President. We have never disguised
our conviction that Mr.. Wilson is quail
fled as is no other American states
man, TO guide the destinies of his
country al this time and particularly
in the field of domestic policy, and we
desire as little as possible to disguise
our satisfaction that the reins of
power are to remain in his capable
hands"
The Daily Telegraph says: ut is
clear that. whatever his difficulties
with domestic affairs may be. a man
of President Wilson's character has
now the opportunity of giving new
weight to the influence OF the greatest
neutral nation-the most powerful
trustee of the interests of humanity
in connection with the world war If
he can be sure of a majority in Con-
gress he can be sure of decisive sup
port for a clear and vigorous line of
policy with regards to those questions
Of American rights which have most
profoundly stirred the minds of his
countrymen. and we do not doubt that
the second Wilson administration Will
approach that part of its task with
purpose re-empha sized and firmness
reinforced.

Few would associate the name OF
Napoleon with the submarine, aud
yet, had 1t not been for the vigilance
of the British government. the two
might have been inseparably linked
for all time. When Napoleon was ban
ished to st. Helena various schemes
were set on foot to effect his escape.
One of the most remarkable of these
originated in the inventive brain OF q
notorious smuggler named Johnstone.
"A submarine vessel" says Scott in his
Life of Napoleon" was to be the
means of effecting this enterprise. 1t
was thought that by sinking the ves-
sci during the daytime she might
escape the notice of the British cruis-

begun in one OF the building yards
upon the Thames: but the peculiarity.
