CONFER WITH
sec. LANSING
Executives Will Discuss German
Submarine Raids in U. S.
Waters
.-'--. .'--''.. y ~
POSITION OF AMERICAN
GOVERNMENT MADE CLEAR
President Will See French AM
bassador and Discuss situa-
ton With Him

Long Branch, N. J.,gOct. 9.-Secre-
tary LANSING, it was announced to-
night, will come here tomorrow for a
conference with President Wilson
concerning German submarine raids
off the American coast. Mr.. Lansing
is expected to remain over night at
the presidents summer residence.
The announcement that the secre.
tary of state would confer with the
president confirmed the impression
gained here earlier in the day that
the American government considered
the attacks on vessels off the coast
by German submarine as frought
with grave possibilities, at the same
time 1t was made clear that there is
nothing in reports 30 far received to
show that international law or the
earlier promises of Germany have
ben violated. Concern over the situ'
alton centered chiefly about the pos
sibility OF what might happen if the
submarine attacks are continued.
Position Made lclear.
The position of the American gov
ernment and its determination to
make full investigatlon before act
ing has been made clear by the presi
dent.
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, who came here today to
give the president personal letter
from the German emperor, on Polish
relief, discussed with President Will
son the new activities of German sub
marines. 1t was understood that the
president made it clear that while
the American government had no in
tentions of interfering with the legiti
mate use of submarines, it would in
sist on the strict observation of the
pledges given previously by the Ger
man government.
Official Advises Lacking.
The ambassador, while lacking off,
cial advices from his government Of
i the submarine attacks, said the Ger
man government had promised to
conduct the submarine warfare in ac
cordance with the cruiser rules Of
! warfare.
Before seeing Secretary Lansing
the president will confer with Jewels
Juesserand, the French ambassador
WHO is coming to Shadow Lawn, to
bring personal letter. from Presi
dent Poincaire of France to President
Wilson on Polish relief.
1t is considered probable that dur
ing the conference the French am
bassador may lay before the presi
dent the view of the Entente govern
ments that German submarines
should not be allowed to come into
American ports.

Early today the submarine or SUD-
marines had not been identified. but
there is doubt in the minds Of naval
officers that one of the engines Of
destruction was the German U.53.
which delivered mail for the German
ambassador, Count Bernstorff at New.
port yesterday. The belief is grow.
ing that the U.53 is only one Of 40.
tilla Of German submarines gathered
for attacks on vessels OF the allied
nations and neutral bottoms carrying
contraband of war. Their operations
so far as known have been known
south and southeast of Nantucket ISL
and and from three to ten miles OF
shore. r4tI b, !.t
The submarine arm of the Imperial
German navy began ravaging ship

Four British, one Dutch and ono
Norwegian steamers we're sent to tho
bottom or left crippled derelicts OF
Nantucket Shoals.
Last night under the light of the
Hunters moon, the destroyer flotills
of the United States Atlantic fleet
was kept busy picking up passengers
and crews Of the destroyed vessels
and bringing them into Newport, r. I.
So far as known, there was no loss
of life.
A submarine held up the American
steamer, Kansan, bound from New
York for Genoa, with steel for the
Italian government, but later on es-
tablishing her identity, allowed the
American to proceed. The Kansan
came into Boston. harbor late last
night for her usual call here.
The hostile submarine is believed
to be the U.53, which paid . call to
Newport yesterday and disappeared
at sunset. Some naval men. how.
ever declared that at least two sub
marines are operating close to tho
American shore though outside tho
three.mile limit.
Holds Up Shipping.
Shipping at ports along the New
England coast had been held up to
greater extent today and vessels 1t
sea were reported making for the
nearest harbor The sudden onslaught
of underseas craft had thoroughly ter.
rified shipping interests engaged In
the carrying of munitions of war and
other shipping not flying the Ameri-
can flag.
q, The American steamer. Kansan.
which was held up by a submarine
off Nantucket, at 4:3O O'Clock yester-
day morning, arrived here today. Her
captain said he had turned back In
response to the signals Of distress
from the West Point, but finding that
his assistance was not required ho
proceeded to Boston. .,, q
The richest prize bagged BY tho
Germans yet was the passenger liner,
Stephano, which had just rounded tho
east end of Nantucket when she fell
prey to a submarine. The vessel,
British owned, was on her regular
trip from St. Johns, N. F., to New
York, via Halifax. and carried 50 pas.
sengers, including 30 Americana.
Twenty-six of the latter were making
the round trip on the steamer iron
New York. The Stephano was val.
ued at 100000 when she was launch-
ed, three years ago. She carried also
a cargo of Goldfish, goldfish oil and
seal oil, consigned to parties In tho
United States and South America and
valued at $l5O,000. Her naval value
was due to the fact that she had been
sold to the Russian government and

FALLS BENEATH FATHERS
CAR, INSTANTLY KILLED

Hebron, N. D., Oct. paul, the
4-year-old son of George Urban of He
bron was instantly killed Sunday af.
ternoon, when he fell from the auto.
mobile in which he was riding with
his father, and was crushed to death
by the rear wheels of the machine.
The body of the little lad was brought
to Hebron Immediately. Funeral SER
vices will be held this afternoon.
1t is supposed that the youngster
was leaning against the door of the
car and it accidentally opened, pre-.
cipitating him from the moving ve-
hicle. In falling he undoubtedly
grasped the running board and was
thrown beneath the rear wheels. His
chest was badly crushed and all ef.
forts to save his life were unavail'

making prisoners of the Roumanian
troops there.
Serbs Cross Cerna River.
Serbians, in considerable force,
have crossed the Cerna river, in Ser.

have occupied positions along the
north bank of the river.
Hard Fighting Near Lutsk.
Considerable hard fighting has
again taken place in the region west

American Officers Firmly Believe

Newport, r. l., Oca. 9.-The whole.

of Nantucket lightship Sunday was
the work of one submarine, according
to reports of American naval officers.
Rear Admiral Albert Gleaves. com.
manding the torpedo boat destroyer
fiotilla, which did such remarkable
speedy rescue work yesterday, said
tonight that the reports Of all his
officers agreed that to the best Of
their observation. one raider only was
concerned. This boat, presumably,
was the German U-53, which called at
Newport Saturday afternoon to mail
a letter to Ambassador Bernstorff

an ounce of supplies, although
she was seventeen days from her
base, according to the statement Of
her officers.
This opinion would seem to be
naval officers indicates that but one
submarine was operating.
Statement Borne Out.
This opinion would seem to be
borne out by the statements of many
of the refugees, that the submarine
had more business on hand than she
could care of at once, and was oblig-
ed to request one steamer to wait her
turn while another was being put out
of commission.
Raiding Has Ceased.
Today, the raiding had ceased, at
least for the moment.

from the Nantucket lightship that
three other ships, the identity of
which could not be learned, were sent

Ten Refugees Landed.
Ten more refugees we're landed
here tonight by the Maville, tender Of

ten Chinese members of the crew Of
the Strathdene.
Destroyers swept the waters on q
wide area today in a vain search for
the crew of the steamer Kingstonia,
who were seen by members Of the
Strathdene to take to their boats be-
fore their vessel was sunk.
Notwithstanding the lull in such
marine activities today, shipping men
were by no means reassured.

Hippodrome Notes

The rush never diminishes at the
Hippodrome where "Hip Hip Hooray"
holds first claim on local as well as
visiting amusement seekers. This
past week the skating tournament
was most successful and interest
ing social event, in which Charles
Dillingham; took the initiative in again
stimulating still further the interest
in ice skating-a vogue which the
skating ballet, Flirting at st. Nor
itz" with it's expert ice nymphs,
started in America. Although every
week seems like "a holiday period at
this vast playhouse, this one is made
even more joyous by the Washington's
Birthday performances at which the
usual special features of an appro-
pirate nature were introduced by
r. H. Burnside. One was the play
ing for the first time of a new march
by John Philip Sousa, called america
First" and dedicated to Mrs. William
Cummings Storey, president of the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion. It had been arranged that this
march shall be played first on Wash
ington's Birthday, when it was
performed simultaneously by the U.
S. Marine Band in Washington at the
convention Of the D. A. r.
Seats are now on sale at the four

To the Editor of the "Palisadian,"

To the Editor of the "Palisadian,"
Dear Sir:
A project of growing interest to
the residents of Cliffside Park is the
proposed improvement of Palisade
avenue and Gorge road, as we'll as
the connecting of the top hill bor-
ough with the borough of Edgewater
by the improvement of Oakdene
avenue.
If the grading, paving, concrete
curbing, guttering and sidewalking
of these most important highways in
the section could be performed in a
night, as it were, without trouble or
expense to anyone, there is not a
doubt that not a single objection
would be heard from the residents.
1t is only a question of the prac-
tical working out of the scheme, the
mathematics and the finance of it
that could cause any possible hesi-
tation or opposition on the part of
property owners Immediately or re-
motely affected.
From the standpoint of the tax

have nothing to do with. That is
undertaken primarily by the govern
ing body as the trustees of the towns
best interests; to less degree by the
large development companies; and
more directly and intimately by the
expert engineers, contractors, finan-
ceers, attorneys, dealers of materials,
and laborers.
The owners of the borough, the
taxpayers, are now paying yearly

quoted as saying that it is only by
improving the borough's material

From Thomas Paine's
Immortal Book

The following extracts are from
Thomas Paine's "Rights of Man"
published in 1892:
"That there are men in all countries
who get their living by war, and by
keeping up the quarrels of Nations,
is as shocking as it is true; but when
those are concerned in the business
of country, make it their duty to
sow discord and cultivate prejudices
between Nations, it becomes the more
objectionable"
3If those to whom power is dele
gated do well, they will be respected:
if not, they will be despised; and
with regard to those to whom no
power is delegated, but who assume
it, the national world can know
nothing Of them"
Thomas Paine gave as his toast,
"The Republic of the World"
