Berlin Papers Underscore the Reference to Rus
STA as Outstanding Feature ~ Editorials Say
Won Bethmann- Hollweg Has Won Adherents
by His Stand

Berlin. Ma: 1G. via London. May II.
Press comment today on the chan
cellors speech almost unanimously
underscores the reference to Russia
a; the significantly outstanding fea-
ture OF the Premier's utte.ance. The
speech as 4 whole is generally COM
mended as one OF the boldest and best
that Won Bethamnn- Hollweg has yet
made in parliament and personal criti-
cism of the chancellor is conspicuous
~ absent.
The editorial discussion, dilating
upon all angles of war aims and peace
terms. emphasizes the widely divergent
views entertained on all sides. In
man, quarters the speech has had a
pronounced conciliatory effect and is
interpreted az pointing the way to a
common meeting ground. The impress
sion prevails that the Conservatives
came out OF the fay badly battered
although the chance lor was equally
emphatic in disowning any prediction
for the Socialist Democratic program
of territorial end indemnity renuncia-
,tion. Standing guard between these
two nillstones the bloc OF the Middle
parties helped the chancellor to carry
the day.

SEA MYSTERY STORY
Danish Skipper Tells of Possible
Submarine Off Hatteras

New York, Nay 1.-THE skipper Of a
Danish steamship which arrived here to-
day with sugar from Cuba had a mys-
terry story to tell. involving the possible
presence OF a submarine and mine off
Cape Hatteras.
HIS ship was SO miles north by east
from Diamond Shoals l!ghtship on May
10. the captain said. when wreckage WAS
sighted For 80 miles this extended,
casks and white painted boards and other
debris indicating vessel had met a vio-
lent end.
A cylindrical tank six feet long and
foot in diameter. galvanized. with Pc
culiar end attachments and with a small
chain on the top surface. attracted the
captains attention and he steers toward
it, An of3icer sighted about that time
what appeared to be spar sticking about
is inches out Of the water. As the Daa
ish vessel neared it this object slowly
submerged. Some distance to starboard
British steamship was proceeding
northward.
The Danish skipper suspected he might
be in the presence Of a mine-laying sub
marine which. having destroyed one ves.
sci. was lying in wait for the Briton 10
starhoard. and he at once ordered full
steam ahead and fed from the vicinity.

PREDICTION OF The CHANCELL0R'S
ATTITUDE SUbSTANTlATED

Copenhagen, via London) May IL
The adjournment of the German
Reichstag for two months without OBJ
tanning from the cautious Imperial
chancellor any satisfaction regarding
the details Of the governments peace
program and without having made
any progress toward the desired con-
stitutional reforms beyond compro-
mise Of the proposal for greater rep
resentation for few overgrown
Reichstag districts. confirms The As
ISOLATED Press prediction of nearly two
take. The chancellor was only able to
deal with generalities in respect to
peace discussion, but he seemed also
able TO convince the great majority Of
the House. including probably the
Scheidemann Socialists of the wisdom
Of his policy of saving nothing which
would tend to call the Russian people,
superior TO the party struggle, to pros
ecute the war vigorously as a defen-
sive program. nor. on the other hand,
bar Germany from obtaining greater
advantages should the progressive
weakening OF Russia continue.
The adjournment of the Rechstag
was not altogether voluntary.
The government which desires to
have its hands free from the embar-
rassment Of the parlia mentary debates
for "the great moment" which it feels
may come In the course of the sum-
mer. intimated that the session Of the
Reichstag might otherwise be closed

SIMS' REPORT
None Received of Ger
man Submarine En-
counter
Officials Resent Statement OF
Inadequate Clothing

Washington. May 17.-No report has
come from Rear Admiral Sims that
any of the American destroyers cruis-
ing with the allied fleets have encoun-
tered German submarines, but navy
officials do not expect to receive detail
ed statements Of operations on minor
engagements if no losses are involved.
1t was reiterated today that for OBJ
vious military reasons the number
and Eames Of American warships In
European waters or those to be sent
would not be disclosed.
Naval officials resent the statement
that the destroyer crews were not ade-
quately clothed for duty. The men all
had regular outfits. which included
wooden underwear, uniforms. caps
socks, jerseys, heavy peajackets, sea
boots and oilskins. and most OF them
were provided with additional lamb S
wool jackets before they sailed.
The department has contracted for
new winter outfits which will be avail
able for all men who may be sent
abroad. Included will be knitted wool :
Ell underwear as heavy as athletic
sweaters in texture, thicl; wooden
houses similar to the uniform hlouses
Of the navy. but three times as heavy,
wird rrcof cutter suits of new neu-
trail tinted cloth, and heavier caps and
socks.
All these will so under oilsk;ns for
deck work and provide the sailors
with as much clothing as they can
wear ard still move about in working
the ship.

business, including in this work of the
constitutional reform party.
The German newspapers which have
been working for peace interpret the
chancellor's speech as an invitation to
Russia to make a separate peace and con-
frmation of the Socialist limitations that
the governments program for settle
ment in the East includes a Polish pleb-
iscite to determine whether the new king
dom which the Central Powers are en-
deavoring to establish from Russian Po-
land shall obtain its independence or
gravitate into the sphere Of influence Of
Germany or Russia.
Such newspapers, including the vor-
waerts. lament that the speech indicates
an intention, in case this plan succeeds,
of making the western powers pay for
the war once Russia is detached. Some
significant indications may, however, be
observed In the Bethmann press, particu-
larry the Frankfurter Zeitung. that the
imperial. chancellor still hopes to come
to some terms with the western powers
dispatch to that paper from Vienna
just after the chancelIor's visit to Count
Czernin, the Austro-Hungaran foreign
minister, puts for the suggestion to Eng
land:
Utilize the psychological moment be-
fore the mid European harvest begins to
approach the Central Powers with peace
proposals which might possibly lead to
peace. 1t would be difficult for any gov
eminent to reject such proposals. Should
the Entente Powers neglect the opportu-
nifty a catastrophe for them is certain"
