TELLS WHY GE ERARD
IS HOSTAGE: IN
GERMAN CAP|TAL.
Failure to Hear From Bern
storff Causes Detention of
American Ambassador
Says KaiSets Official,

10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED WIaEl
Loadon, Feb. f0.-Dr. William Won
Stumm, the German under secretary
of foreign affairs, in an interview
printed in the Amsterdam Handels-
blad, says Germany regrets that she
was compelled to take the measures
she adopted against Ambassador Ger
ard but that the United States had
prevented Count Won Bernstorff, the
retiring German ambassador, from
telegraphing that he had received his
passports.
The interview, according to Reuters
Amsterdam correspondent, was had in
Norden, Prussia. DR.. Won Stumm is
declared to have said that Germany
received no reports from the United
States about the treatment of Count
Won Bernstorff or of German con-
suls or German subjects in the United
States. The American government
according to the under secretary. evil
IDENTIFY had stopped Count Won Bern
storff from telegraphing Immediately
after the severance of diplomatic re-
lations with Germany by the United
States. and the ambassador had been
unable to announce even the receipt
of his passports. Germany had only
learned from the Swiss government
that the ambassador had received his
passports.
Such treatment, DR.. Won Stumm is
credited as having said. has compelled
Germany to adopt tae measures she
had taken against the American am
bassador, although she deplored such
measures which would have been SUI
perfluOus with some mutual courtesy
Il hope Count V9n Stumm is quot
ed as having said, "the reports of the
seizure of German ships and the re-
striction of the liberty of their crews
are untrue, as such measures would be
contrary to the German-American
treaty of 1899. We do not wish a
system of warfare against non-com-
batants such as Great Britain intro
duced by the internment of civilians"

BILE; Their Boat Sunk,

Providence, r. l., Feb. 9.-The crew
previously reported sunk by a German
submarine, in the Bay of Biscay, ar
rived here today ON the Faber liner
Roma, and told of seeing a large
transport sent to the bottom with all
hands, just before the Rergenhus was
destroyed.
The submarine held up the Norwe.
gian January 10, First officer Fred
bold of Boston, said, and the COM
mander remained on board for several
hours until the transport was sighted,
apparently with a load of troops.
Shots were exchanged by the transport
and the submarine. Fredbold said the
latter remained on the surface and
fired several shots which hit the
transport clean. The transport, ac-
cording to Fredbold, burst into flames,
broke in two and sank. The subma-
rine then returned to the Bergenhust
ordered the crew to transfer to the
American steamer Borinquen and then
sent thes Bergenhus, vessel of 2,S44
tons. to the bottom.
The Borinquen took the crew to the
Azores to be put aboard the Roma.
Fredbold said he could not tell wheth-
er the transport was French or Eng
lish as she was about five miles
away.
The Roma also brought in four
members of the crew of the Greek
steamship Dimitrios Goulandris, tor
pedoed by German submarine, thirty
miles off the coast of Spain, January
4. The crew of twenty-three were
obliged to row to land, they said. The
vessel was bound from Buenos Aires

men landed here was John Bereis,
third engineer, of New York.

Chihuahua City. Mexico, Feb. 8
Gen. Francisco Murguia has establish
ed his headquarters at the railway
station of Diaz, n point between Santa
Rosalia and Jimenez, in the campaign
he is personally directing against
Villa. Beyond this announcement,
made officially today, which indicates
the general location of Villa and his
main command, nothing is known
here of the progress of the campaign.
General Murguia has issued a new
manifesto to the people of the state
calling on all rebels to lay down arms
on the ground that the withdrawal of
the American punitive expedition has
removed his last preteXt for armed
opposition to the de facto government
The report that Gen. Jaeinto Her
nandez was killed while fighting rebels
near Parral city, is still unconfirmed.
Gen Francisco Gonzales, the late
commander of JuareZ, remains in
charge of the chihuahua City garri-
son, which answers the border rumor
that it was he who had been killed.

was 10. 424.
The Norwegian vessels lost were
the Hanskinck, Storskog, Ida and
Odin. Sailors on both the Ida and
Odin were killed by shell fire. All but

they had been taken, submerged
suddenly on the approach of a steam
er and left them to seek safety in the
water. The one British steamer
sunk was the Hannah Larsen of
1910 tons. Her captain and chief
engineer were taken prisoner on
board the submarine.

SAYS NAVAJO INDIANS
WOULD GUARD BORDER

Salt Lake City, Utah, Feb. &C. L.
Christensen, of Monticello, Utah, who
says that he has been an interpreter
among the Indians for forty years,
wrote to Gov. Simon Bamberger to-
day to the effect that he could enlist
900 Navajo Indians to protect the
Mexican border in case of war.
Christensen's letter follows:
IF Uncle Sam gets hard pressed
for men and the government author
ICES me, l can recruit 10000 Navajo
Indians in one month. They will be
invincble in defense of our country
and they are eager for the opportun-
ity. They are ready if the United
States will arm and feed them rigr.
and they would be especially adapted
for patrol duty on the Mexican bor-
Ger. They already have good horses.
Their food would consist of flour,
yeast powder, coffee, sugar and plenty
of meat of any kind"

New York, Feb. 9,-Although fig
ures to show the number of subma-
rines destroyed by the entente allies
and the measu used in their deStruc-
uon are unavailable, owing TO the rig
id censorship on war activities, it was
learned here tonight from an authorb-
tative source that direct gunfire from
the decks of warships and auxiliary
vessels had been the most effective
method employed thus far.
To combat the submarine menace
the British government and her allies
have adopted vaGious plans to catch
the undersea boats although some of
them have been abandoned as inef-
fective. A marine authority of un'
questioned standing, who is close to
British shipping interests, said today
when asked as to the effectiveness OF
arming ships:
Light Guns Best.
I'VE have found that light guns
discharging proiectiles of four to six
pounds, in hands of trained gunners,
have been by far the most effective
weapon. l know personally that as
ilieilIS do bNO iiiSS iAthNt bSS''
hagged in one day in this way.
"A submarine commander looking
through periscope has a range OF
vision of about three miles, but he
must get his target broadside on to
have a reasonable chance of making
q torpedo hit, and as torpedoes are a
very expensive missile, he cannot az
ford to take many chances on a miss,
"A periscope above the water at O
distance OF 200 or 800 yards makes a
fair mark for a gunner working from
the deck of a ship thirty or forty feet
above the surface of the sea. one
shot hitting the mark is all that is
needed as the submarines are of light
construction, easily penetrated and a
hole anywhere in their shell spells
their doom.
Must Have Side Shot.
1T is seldom that a torpedo is fired
when a threatened ship can so man
euver as to show only her stern for a
mark, and in most OF the cases OF
this nature so far reported, the sub
mersibles have come to the surface
and resorted to gunfire from a deck
gun. In this kind of a fight a gun

advantage, for the platform Offered
by submarine is an unsteady thing
to fire from, and, despite the smaller
target offered, the gunners on ships
have the better of it.
Careful observations made during
the last year of steamers mounting
defense guns show that they are in
measure immune from attack-un-
less 1t is without warning, as in the
case of the California. The number
of U-boats that the Germans have
lost has made thSn chary about show
ing themselves within range of ships
on which they see guns or which they
have learned are defensively armed.
"Other methods of catching sub
marines, such as nets, bombs and de-
vices that are admiralty secrets, are
still being used, but the deck gun on
steamers in the hands of good marks
men is leading all others in results
