Many submarines have sighted scores
OF passenger ships between England

We have lived up to our promise In

had been lost since March 1st.
Five months more will see what
we can do with the British shipping.

Bernstroff in a
Trap of His Own
Making, is Report
GERMAN AMBASSADOR MAY GET
PASSPORTS BECAUSE OF
PART IN PLOT.

WASHINGTON, April 21.-It is be-
lieved that Bernstorff has been
caught in trap from which he can
not escape. Washington has con-
cluded that Bernstorff faces the ne
cessity of admitting improper activi-
ties or having the facts proved against
him with the papers taken from Won
lgel who was arrested in New York
on bomb plot charges. 1t was freely
predicted that Bernstorff might re-
ceive his passports for reasons in
dopenden of the submarine contro-
versy
1t is known that the cabinet has
considered the situation. How seri-
ously Bernstorff has viewed this was
shown when eight demands were made
for the return of Won Igel's papers.

taken.

GERM <<PRESS IS

TO AMERICAN NOTE

BERLIN. April 21.-Wilson's note,
demanding a cessation of Germanys
submarine campaign was printed to-
day. The day being Good Friday
made it impossible to obtain an ex-
preston of opinion from the foreign
office. A reply is unlikely before the
end Of next week. Bankers and mer.
chants and the heads Of government
departments probably will be sum-
moned in conference over a reply.
Newspapers almost unanimously
declared that Germany will not yield,
though most of them expressed the
opinion that a diplomatic break will
not result. The Vossische Zeitung
predicted that congress will prevent
a breach.
