Berlin, Feb. 13.-(By wireless to

cd by the Overseas News Agency as
saying:
November 8, 1914, declared the whole

The German declaration with re-

1917, which followed the English
declaration, announced exactly the
same thing and pointed out that neut-

been already set forth, Jan. Is, 1915.
in a letter by an English minister to
the Dutch ministers-'vessels may do

This Is Warning.
The Nord Deutsche Allgemeine Eel
tung declares:
THE German sea forces have thus
never torpedoed without warning.
since the sinking Of all ships without
previous particular warning occurred
in a war district. which had been de-
clared dangerous" and adds:
1.-The same cannot be said of Eng
land. since the British submarines
have repeatedly attacked and sunk
steamers by torpedoes outside the sea
war district and without warning"
The paper then gives the list Of
vessels alleged to have been sunk by

II, within q reasonable length Of

then take the necessary measures to
conhne the confagration to its strict
limits. refusing to the belligerents all

THE Mexican government recos-
aside a little from the principles Of
international law. which until now
have been in force in the relations
Of the neutralss with the belliRerents.
But We ought to recognise that the

1t may be, by Itself may take q step
Of this nature and as result Of this
measure can only be reached with the
cooperation Of the neutral govern

ent nations.
1T pertains especially to the United

In America. and to Spain, Sweden

more influential and more at liberty
to take a determined stand haPoro ~, a
