Gathering Facts

Every agency open to the State de-
partment tonight was being employed
in an effort to gather an unimpeach-
able array Of facts regarding the ex-
plosion which damaged the British
channel steamer Sussex; the sinking
of the British ships Manchester En-
gineer. Englishman and Eagle Point;
and the alleged firing Of a torpedo at
the French passenger ship Patria. All
these ships carried American citizens
and all apparently were attacked in
violation of Germany's recently renew
ed assurances to the United States.

Next Step Determined

Next step Determined
The next step Of the United States
is said authoritatively to have been
determined upon. Unless Germany in
reply to the inquiries made by the
United States through Ambassador
Gerard makes some statement to cause
the state department to change its
present intentions, it is understood
that all the recent aggravating incl
dents will be combined into one gen.
eral formidable indictment which will
bring the entire subject to a clear
cut issue.
Should Germany admit responsible
ity for any Of the attacks and attempt
to satisfy the United States by saying
a mistake had been made and by Of
fering reparation and to punish the
submarine commander, the issue would
not by any means be disposed of. 1t is
regarded as certain the United States
would not accept such a statement as
sufficient unless shown that punish
ment actually was meted out to the
offending submarine commander and
whether any value longer could be at
tached to Germanys promises.
In the event Of Germany disclaiming
responsibility for the disasters. the
United States will proceed with It's IN
yestigation to determine to Its own
satisfaction whether the evidence
which now strongly indicates that the
Sussex and other ships were torpedoed
without warning, can be regarded az
conclusive proof. With such proof be-
fore it, the government prooapiy "oolu
act promptly. Of1cials refrain iro"

ton would be.
