Ber,,storff Admits
No Other Course
Was Open to U. S

Washington. Feb. 3.-When in.
formed today Of the severance Of
diplomatic relations with Germany
Ambassador Count Won eernsto rff's
eyes inoistened as he received the
information and he said to an As
soeiated Press correspondent
am 50 sorry. However, I ex-
pected il. There was nothing else
lett for tho United States to do. !
wonder how am to get homer"
Count Won Bernstorff earlier In
the day had said even should
break come President Wilson prob
ably would continue his efforts to
restore peace to the world, possibly
thru tho Swiss government. Il
was during this disc usssion that his
private telephone rang.
"You say relations have been.
broken off and that the president i.
going to congress at 2 o'eIook?"
said in response to what was \
him oyer the wire. "Are you 81,
Well, maybe, that's right. No, i
have no comment to make and
nothing to say"
Later he explained how sorry he
was that the break had to como,
and added:
Not Surprised.
~ am not surprised. Ny govern
nent will not be surprised either.
People in Berlin know what was
bound to happen If they took the
action which was taken. However,
] have merely been here to carry
out the instructions Of my govern
ment. ! have had no information
either from my governments or from
the United States since ! presented
the note which brought this about"
Many attaches Of the embassy
Immediately began preparing to re-
move their personal effects. The
clicking Of typewriters ceased and
clerks stopped working to talk of
possibilities Of war and how they
were going to get back to Germany.
In the mind Of every person in
the embassy there is now and al
ways has been the conviction that
the severance Of diplomatic rela-
tions could be followed by nothing
else but war. They all feel that the
first American life lost a. the re-
suit Of the new submarine oam-
paisn will bring the casus belli.
Vice President Marshall, notified
to arrange for the joint session Of
congress, said:
1T 10 sincersly to bs hoped that
this necessary break will not drag
the United States into war. There
are limits, however, to endurance
beyond which no self respecting
nation can 90. This government
can net permit 5dsiianes Of al laws
Of civilization sby any nation to
pass unohaiIsngsd." 55
Senator Ben Tiilman, chairman
Of the senate naval COMMITTEES,
said: a
"l'm mighty glad Of Il. hear
Count Won esrnstorH has been told
to pack up his duds and 90 hons to
the barbarians. We will do the best
we can.
I'VE don't take any passes from
anybody to 90 anywhere we please
on the sea. Congress ought to agree
unanimously to back up tho presi-
dent to the limit, just like we did
Mckinley"

GHOSTLY ATTACK rs
METBY BRITISH FIRE
German Raiders, In smocks Of White,
Attempt Surprise Assault Over Snow
Covered Ground - eritons Repulse
Attack With Machine Guns.

lStaff Correspondent Of the Associated
Press.]
With the British Armies in France
via London. Feb. 3.-The German raid
ers who made two attacks yesterday
against British trenches south of the
Ypres salient looked for all the world
like the Ku Klux Klan, the crusaders OF
reconstruction days in the southern
state of America. They were clad in
white sheets fashioned into sort Of
smock, wore white hoods and masks
and sought thus to cross the snow COW
erred no-man's land without detection
The raiders came over in two waves
only TO pc hurled back with heavy
losses in killed and wounded
They swept into a>perfect storm OF
machine gun fire. There was a ghostly
aspect to this affair thruout. It was
attempted at the misty hour when the
later winter moonlight faded into the
dawn.
After an all night vigil in the front
trenches the soldiers nerves are apt to
be jumpy as morning approaches. On
this occasion there had been the usual
preliminary German bonlbardment and
something was expected but not the
ghostly apparitions which eventually
greeted the aze of the sentries as they
|peered thru the chilly half light into
the barren stretch of white separating
their trenches from those Of the enemy
Regardless of whether they were
ghosts or Germans the sentries knew
that the proper thing to- do was tc
shoot Then the machine guns chirned
in and the first wave of the attackers
was breaking when the second came
over. Two Germans managed tc
plunge into a British trench but they
got out so quickly they left behind them
unused can Of dynamite. One of the
two died in the wire entanglements as
he was attempting to retreat.

liner ST. Louis DELAYS SAILING
American. Rush Homeward..

London, Feb. "a large crowd OF
homeward bound Americans took the
boat train at Euston station this
morning. There seemed little appre-
hension as today's sailing was exempt
under the German warning, it beins
the last one with such exemption.
1t turned out that the demands for
by Americans desiring
to get away from England We're less
urgent than expected and virtually
one entire deck was not taken.
