VIRTUALLY STATE OF
WAR NOW EXISTS.
PRESIDENT URGING AN IMMEDI.
ATE SESSION OF CONGRESS
TO CONSIDER MEASURES.

Washington. March Is: With
the announcement of the ruthless
destruction of three unarmed Amer
lean merchant ships by submarines,
it was unofficially admitted here to.
night that virtually state of war
exists between the United States
and Germany.
Technically the United States re-
mains in position of armed neutral
ity. Whether this shall be changed
before April l6, the date fixed for a
special session of Congress, the war
making branch of the government.
President Wilson has not decided.
One step the President is contem-
plating is a call for an immediate
session of Congress to hear an ad-
dress asking for authority to adopt
aggressive measures against the SUBJ
marine menace.
Already American ships are being
Armed to defend themselves; the
next move must be to send warships
with orders to seek out submarines
and clear the transatlantic lanes.
Some OF the highest officials of the
government hold that the executive
has power to declare that a state of
war exists and to proceed with ag-
gressive protective steps pending
the assembling of Congreas. There
is no indication, however. that Pesi-
dent Wilson will follow that course.
Of the three ships destroyed, two
were unloaded and were homeward
bound. All were American built,
American owned and officered and
manned largely by American citizens.
Meagre dispatches indicate that
all were sunk with complete disre-
gard for the safety of those on board
and that some of the members of
the crew may have been lost.
Today's developments brought the
government face to face with the
problem of formulating a definite
policy for the nation in case the
United States actually enters the
war. This possibility was mention
ed by the President in his inaugural
address March 5.

other fugitive, also was killed and J
L Lathem. a memb Der the escaped
band, Was mortal!y wounded. Four
of Overtor's companions fed when
the fight with the deputies began,
and are being pursued by the posse.
None of the deputies was injured.
Malino was un&er a death sentence
for the murder of a peddler here
several months age. and Lathem had
been inflicted on a charge of forgery.
The seven prisoners fled from Bir-

armed. Thoroughfares in every d.
rection out of Birmingham were
searched and late this evening the
police were informed by a negro
