GERMAN COMMENT.

Berlin, via, London. May 6, GAO a. m.-The text of the German reply to the American note was printed in eX- tra editions of the newspapers but caused hardly a ripple of excitement. No crowds gathered around the news paper offices and the people in gener- al showed marked calmness.
 Noted restraint was shown in the limited comment made on the note in the papers. Even Count Won Re- ventlOW usually a caustic critic of German-American relations, disposes of the matter With a single line re- ferrng his readers to previous editor ials for his opinion. The Kreuz Zei- tung also declined to criticise and contended itself with referring to pre- vious discussions on the issue in ques- ton.
 On the whole the German press ap- pears satisfied with the tenor of the reply from Berlin, although there are indications that the attitude of the newspapers is not wholly uninspired.
 The Vossische Zeitung, one of the few papers to comment at length on the German reply says:
 ''The note is inspired by a sincere wish to avoid a break with the United States The government, in ignoring the tone of President Wilson's note has gone straight to the point wherein there is a possibility of an agreement by offering to conduct the submarine campaign within the limits of ante bellum international law. This is the last and the furthest concession that Germany can make and should the ex- pectation that England be now re- Quired to return to the same basis of international law be deceived the gov ernment reserves full liberty of ac- tion."
 The Taeglche Rundschau, while ex- pressing the opinion that the note should have taken different char acter urges that the expression of di- vergent views is unwarranted at this moment and that everybody should subordinate his own judgment and stand behind the government.
 After Germany has undertaken this doubly difficult sacrifice" says this paper, "Germans are entitled to expect America to keep her promise to restore freedom of the seas as against all belligerents. It is now up to the American people to show before all the world whether their purpose was to protect the rights of humanity or to act as England's ally With view to cripple use and fruStrate our victory"
 The Berlin Tageblatt contents itself with summarizing the main points of the note and expressing the hope that it will attain it's aim in preventing war with America.

AFRAID TO COME HOME.
One of Black Rock Train Wrcckers
 Brought to Police Today.

Eddie Krystopic, nine years old, one of the ring-leaders in the gang Of boys who recently attempted to wreck the dinky at the Black Rock bridge, was brought to police headquarters this afternoon after he had run away from home. When he did not come home last night his folks sent out an alarm.
 Eddie told the police he was afraid to go home. It developed that the boy had taken the probation report cards Away from other boys who were on probation from the police court, hence his fear of returning home. When he found on Main street the boy had a quart bottle of milk he had picked off a doorstep and in his fright he dropped it.

FROM POPE TO WILSON.
Message Thought to Bear OH Strained
 Relations.

Washington, May 6.-Monsignor Giovanni Bonzano, the apostolic dele gate, called at the White House to- day and delivered a message to Presi- dent Wilson from Pope Benedict. He did not see the president, but left the communication with Secretary Tu multy.
 White House officials at first re- fused to discuss the message, and so did the apostolic delegate. Later it was stated that it bore on the subma- rine issue between the United States and Germany. It was understood 1t reflected the apprehension of the Pope at the possibilities of a rupture be- tween the two countries.

FRENCH COMMENT.

Paris May 6, 4:55 a. r1.-The French press subjects the German note to the United States to severe analysis, drawing varying conclusions from it. Some newspapers consider that Germany has yielded, although with bad grace. Others believe the document is a tortuOus refusal.
 The Petit Journal the newspaper of Stephen Pichon, former foreign min ister says, Germany certainly makes a concession on the essential point in regard to the sinking of vessels with out warning, but in the next breath seeks to make capital out of that con- cession by asking the United States to enforce respect for liberty ot the seas. This means in substance, the newspaper says that the suppression Or at least attenuation of the block ade, from which the German people are suffering more and more.
 The Petit Parisien says the note contains little that is new. It offers concessions but this is not the first time Germany has spoken of having issued humane instructions 70 sub marine commanders. It continues:
 "Even if America accepted these proposals, notwithstanding the un- gracious and even discOurteOus tone in which they are made, notWith- standing the bargain they involve, the conflict will break out afresh tonCr- row over another inevitable incident"
 The Matin heads it's comment "Blackmail' It says:
 ITO judge properly the impudence of the reply it must be remembered President Wilson declared in congress that he was in the position of Spikes man of neutrals and of civilized hu- manity. He has never in any deorcc admitted there could exist connection between lawful restrictions on enemy commerce and assassination of iu- offensive passengers.
 Ut is for the American government to judge whether Germany has made concessions, as she pretends or Wheth- CT she has not pushed cynicism and hypocrisy to the extreme limits' The Journal says the concession made by Germany is hedged in with reservations and conditions which in Germanys calculations constitute ground for further conVersation even if rejected. It asks whether Presi- dent Wilson will not be obliged to send another note to reject these con- ditlons This would mean so much more time gained without speaking of the echo which the curious pacific allusions, protestations of friendliness and solicitations in regard to impar- tiality might find in America.
