WILSON'S DENIAL.
FAILS To DENY,
SAYS SEN. LODGE.
Town STATEMENT SHOWS
SOMETHING WAS UP
Arbitration Clause Referred
to as Rejected Bears
Out Claim.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass, Oct 21.--
The alleged weakling postscripts TO
the Lusitania note TO Germany regard
ing "striCt accountability" was again
referred to by Senator Lodge at po-
litical meeting here tonight.
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, 10 accept the
Presidents denial just as he makes
it, said Senator Lodge.
81 need hardly say" he added that
would not willingly bring an unfound-
ed charge against any one, high or low
and if misled into doing so ! should
be quick to retract it. The President
makes one mistake. The statement
which he charaCteriZes as untrue, that
there was such a postscript, was not
mine, but was made by Mr. Breckin-
ridge, a former Assistant Secretary Of
War. according to the evidence of two
independent witnesses. both gentlemen
OF high character, responsibility and
veracity, and Mr.. breckenridge was in
Il position to know if, as he is report
ed to have said, he had seen the post
script. Bearing in mind the public
and hitherto uncOntrovertcd fact that
Mr. Bryan had informed the Austro.
German ambassador that the strict ac-
cOuntablity note Of May l. meant
nothing, which fact was at once Cabled
by the ambassador to Berlin. it seemed
10 me Mr.. Breckinridgc's statement. as
testified to by two independent wit
nesscs. ought properly TO be laid be-
fore the public.
May Explain 1t.
THE president, it will also De OBJ
served says that the clause proposing
IarbilIation was suggesIpd' and that
aftAT consideration ho rejected It.
This suggestion rejected by the presi
said BY Mr.. breckenridge TO have been
hay been what Mr.. Breckenridge had
in mind when talking to DR.. Bailey
and Mr.. Jcffcries about the postscript
which was rejected without having
been referred TO the cabinet and it, may
have also been the recon for Mr.
BryanS statement To the Aus1ro-Iun-
garian ambassador that the note
meant nothing.
Il also would call your attention to
Il statement by Mr.. Charles Warren, a
Republican Presidential GleCtor of New
Jersey, who states that he WIS told by
a member of President Wilson's Off
Cial family that the proposition TO ar
bitrate the loss Of life Oh the LuSita-
mia was 10 be embodied i'll note to
Ambassador Gerard, and was not 10 be
Il postscript to the strict accountable
iy' note.
"As have previously pointed out,
The suggestion for Il proposition of ar
bitration 10 accompany the strict ac-
COuntabiily' note. whether as Il post
nrin q
methods Of its suggestion, cOnSidera-
lion 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 essential
fact that the strict accountability
note meant nothing, as Mr. Bryan de-
rlared 10 the Austro-Hungarian ambas
Sadur. and us events since that time
have painfully demonstrated"

OPEN BIDS TODAY

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31-Bids will
be opened at the navy department to-
morrow for four scout cruisers and 81
coast type submarines. leaving only
proposals for four battle cruisers to
be received before the construction
OF all the 1917 building program can

and twenty deStroyers are now under

defense against any ship more heavily

The submarines will be of the same

navy, having in the neighborhood of

Navy officials expect no difficulty

While awarded for the four battle
ships will not be made for week Or
so, it is known that examination of
proposals submitted Il week ago has
shown the Newport News Ship and
Dry Dock company and the New York
