greatness to the nation on more than
one trying occasion.
"The American people may be glad,
too, that Bryan was not President, with
his idea that he could overcome a Eu-
ropean food by pouring sweet oil
on its turbulent waters. They may be
glad, too, that Roosevelt is not Presi-
dent, for we would already have been
in war with Germany and England and
France and Russia and Mexico

81 will support the President to the
utmost" replied Lodge, when he takes
stand against foreign nation, but
will not be led under the blackmail OF
a threat of war to support an objec-
tionable treaty"
1t is true, he said, that Germany "has
blockaded" the United States, but it is
because ship owners cannot get guns
which are in the hands of the Navy
Department.
"Why don't they have the guns?" nc
asked. Congress can't give them.
"We have read to-day that our for
mer ambassador to Germany was afraid
to take passage on a ship in Spain fol
fear il would be demolished. Car
Congress send battleship to bring oul
ambassador home? No. but the navy
can. That is not an act of war. Can't
we protect the life of our own am
bassador?
ave have heard how the wives of our
consuls have been stripped and acid;
applied to their bodies TO determine il
they bore any messages in invisible ink
Yet nothing has been done. Is that thi
fault of Congress?
81 am loath to say these things, but
I cannot permit the charge to be made
here that the Republicans are in a
congpiracy"

Talks with Alfonso

The women and children Of the
nartv which will sail on the lnfanta
Isabel are extremely nervous, and
for that reason discussion of the
submarine menace is limited as far
as possible to the responsible mem
hers Of MIR. Gerard's retinue.
Alarming views about German
boats are appearing in the Spanish
papers. 1t is said that Engllshmen
have been removed from Spanish
ships even within Spain's own terri
torial waters during the last few
days.
Mr. Gerard had private audience
Yesterday with King Alfonso. 1t
Is understood they discussed inter-
national questions, especially the
submarine situation. To-day Am
tassador Willard entertained the
Spanish Premier, Mr.. Gerard and
other diplomats here.
Mr.. Gerard will leave Madrid on
Sunday and will arrive in Corunna
or Monday.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-02-25
Warned Not to Sail

Before Mr.. Gerard left Berlin two
intimate friends warned him not to
sail from Spain and advised him TO-
remain for a few months either IN
France or Spain. Mr.. Gerard is IN
clined to disregard this warning. he
is anxious to report personally TO
President Wilson as soon as pos
sible. but he does not feel that he
and the Americans with him should
be subject to unnecessary U-boat
hazards in crossing the Atlantic II
tney can be avoided by taking pre-
cautions in time.
Embassy officials here are certHn
that if Washington cannot provide
4 naval escort to reach the Spanish
coast before the Infanta Isabel sails
the Allied governments will be will
ing to convoy the vessel to a meet
ing with al American escort IN MD
Atlantic. They emphasize the fact
that submarine dangers are not Inn
tied to Europe, and that in case OF
hostilities between Germany and the
United States German U-boats may
he encountered even in American
waters.

USE OWN SHIPS OR FORFEIT U. s
TRADE, SAYS UNCLE SAM

Washington, July 10-(By Union
Associated Press)-Uncle Sam is not
mincing words with the neutral coun-
ries seeking United States trade.
From now on the neutrals will have to
bring out their own merchant ships
or go without supplies from America.
The 100000 tons of shipping neutrals
are keeping tied up in port will be re-
leased shortly as a result Of the de-
cision of the United States. Neutral
diplomats in Washington have asser-
ted that the reason their countries
shipping is tied up is not because Of
the owners fear of attack by German
submarines so much as fear of being
compelled to enter the submarine zones
by Great Britain.

Battery c., First Mississippi Field
Artillery, can use between twenty and
thirty additional to the number now
enrolled. That order was received by
Captain A. C. Metts last week. The
Battery is already up to and above war
strength but Adjutant Genral Erie G..
Scales in his order said for the units
up to war strength not to stop there
but to continue recruiting, securing
thirty more than necessary as some
probably would be thrown out on the
physical examination.
Battery c., is the only new unit in
the Mississippi National Guard that
has reached war strength so far. The
others are digging hard to make the
number by August the fifth. If up to
war strength the various units will
be called into service on or about that
date.
The Battery now enrolls two hun
dred and five men including the OFF,
GERS. One hundred and ninety is all
that is necessary to make war
strength. An additional twenty or
thirty men can be accommodated If
that number desire to become affiliated
with the organization. Following is
