Brazil Expects
To Break with
Germany To-day
Only Awaits Receipt of or
fetal Report on Sink
ing Of the Parana

RIO Ge Janciro. April Q. An early
rupture of relations between Brazil and
Germany is expected by tomorrow
morning. AZ the latest. The break de-
pcnds solely on the formality OF the
reception Of the official report from
Paris on the sinking Of the Brazilian
steamer Parana by a German subma-
zinc.
The break probably will be followed
by the seizure Of German ships in
Brazil.
Dr. Lauro Muller. Foreign Minister.
refused to-day TO receive the German
Minister. DR.. Muller then gave urgent
orders that a steamer in Rio de Jsneiro
be made ready at once for a mission
abroad
DR.. Muller conferred with the War
Minister and the chief of staff. He
also urgently requested a report from
the Brazilian Legation in Paris.
The refusal TO see the minister fo''
DR.. Muller had with him yesterday, and
which. the newspaper, "A Noite" re-
ports. caused no change in the atti-
tude of tho government
The wording of a telegram sent by
Or. Lauro Muller TO the Brazilian Le-
CATION in Berlin on February l3 is re-
called. The telegram said: I'VE will
consider il essential TO the maintenance
o. friendly relations that no Brazilian
ship be attacked cn the sea under any
nrctext. even that Of carrying contra
band Of war. as the belligerent nations
have arbitrarily put everything into
a. at category
An Indication that Germany may
deny that the Parana was the victim or
a German submarine is shown in state
ents in newspapers here and attrlb-
uted 20 German diplomatic officials.
According TO these statements. the
Parana probably struck French or
English mine. a.. u IS contended, II -
improbable that German submarine
would have been able to operate so
close TO Hayre The German Minister
is quoted as asserting tina. the testl-
mouy Of the commander OF the Parana
IS open TO suspicion because he Is
Portuguese.
There j. little disposition here to
take these statements seriously, anu
the newspapers continue 10 demand
energetic action breach OF dlplo-
matte relations. a. the least. Some OF
the papers express impatienee at the
slowness Of the Chancellery TO take ac-
tion. The "Gazeta de Noticias' says:
There is no reason 10 hesitate. Bra
iii is at war with Germany, and the
government ought 10 recognize that
situation. The Brazilian nation should
be represented in the tribunal whlen
will ludge the crimes OF Germany.
The 'Jornal do Brazil" demands an
immediate breach Of relations and the
turning over Ct Brazilian interests IN
Germany to Switzerland.
The "Correio de Mania" says that the
time for diplomatic temporiZngs IS
past, and that no satisfaction can be
accepted from Germany less than I'M
mediate suspension of the submarine
blockade The paper expresses aston
ishment that the Brazilian government
has not vet made any move, ana de-
nands immediate action.
