kA|SER'S Teeth
Must Be Fixed by An
American Dentist
Therefore He Recognizes No
State of War

Copenhagen, via London, May 13.-
Emperor William recognizes no state
Of war with the United States so far
as his personal comfort is concerned.
This is known by the fact that he has
summoned his American dentist, Ar
thur Newton Davis of Piqua, Ohio, to
visit him at Great Headquarters this
week and attend to the necessary re-
pairs to the imperial teeth.
The war in general has proved tooth
ache to be no respecter Of international
relations and through the long months
Of tension between Germany and the
United States, the Imperial and Royal
family and the highest officials of the
state have continued to patronize
their espective American dentists.
Each new crisis was marked by an
almost ludicrous rush of members OF
the royal families. foreign office off,.
Gals and others to get their teeth at
tended to before the possible depart
ure of the American dentists. Some OF
the most rabid vituperators Of the
United States have been mild doves
in American dental chars.
The Emperor's personal view of the
relations With the United States APP
parently is the official Interpretation
of his government. which in a COM
munication regarding the continuation
of the Belgian relief work speaks not
of war. but Of the abandonment OF
neutrality" by the United States.
Along the same line is a declaration
In the Reichstag committee by Mai
Gen. Friedrich, who said there was no
intention to intern Americans.

MONGOLIA AGAIN
Brings Report of APP
parent U-Boat En-
counter

May 13.--The American
steamship Mongolia, from which the
country's first SHOT in the war with
Germany was fired. with such accur-
acy that a German submarine was
sunk arrived at an American port
today from Europe. bringing a report
by the officers of another apparent en-
counter with a U-boat.
The second adventure was on May
4, according to Lieut.. Bruce NJ. Ware,
the man who commanded the naval
gun crew which disposed of the sub
marine on April 10, the anniversary of
the battle of Lexington.
The Mongolia was on her homeward
voyage, Lieut.. Ware said. when about
midnight the wake of what was be-
lieved to be a torpedo was seen ahead
in the moonlight.
The missile. if it was one. passed UNI
der the ships bow. No submarine was
sighted. but shot was fired from one
of the Mongolia'S guns in the direction
from which the supposed torpedo had
come and nothing further was heard or
seen to indicate a submarines pres
ence.
The gunners on the Mongolia were
jubilant upon their arrival. They re-
iterated their conviction that the shot
on April 10 sank the submarine. 1t was
fired, Lieut.. Ware said, by James A.
Goodwin, gunner's mate, of Portsmouth,
Va.
Lieut.. Ware declared that through his
glasses he saw the shot strike the u
boats periscope and that the hit was
followed by a cloud of white vapor, as
if an internal explosion had been caus-
ed. After that the submarine did not
reappear, he said.
