Of the sinking by a German submarine

2,252 tons gross. in the Atlantic Ocean
on January l2 are printed in the
Italian newspaper Idea Na.iONal. says
the Overseas News Agency. The Bisagno
was stopped. according to the newspaper
by four warning shots. Because of the
rough sea the steamer was then ordered
to approach within five miles Of the

advised by the submarine commander to
throw themselves into the water. The
men were then rescued by the C-boat
and later were transferred to the Dutch
steamship Gcsterland. which carried
them to Falmouth.
The foregoing despatch Is the first an
nouncement to reach this country of the

The warning is said to have reached
President Wilson last week and is now
given as an explanation of the Presi-
dents decision To go before Congress
before sanctioning officially the arm
ing OF American vessels.
This matter has apparently assumed
more ana more direct bearing upon the
international situation as the result OF
information which has reached the State
Department within the last few days.
Whether the information has come from
Ambassador Penfieid at Vienna or from
Mr.. Gerard or through the Spanish En-.

statement referring to possible immun.-

German proposal 10 negotiate with the
United states regarding the rights OF
American ships in the war zone which
President Wilson flatly refused to en-
tertain so long aa the Illegal subma rine

seems to he Ia keep the idea before the
