HE HAS AUTHORITY.
The v. S. Senate Expected to Adopt
CIoture Rule to Put An End to
Filibustering.
Newspaper Union News service

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, March 6.-President
Wilson, having proclaimed to the
world in his. second inaugural ad-
dress the principles that will guide
the United States if it becomes in
volved in the world war, is consider
ing what steps he will take to protect
Americans and American ships from
the German submarine menace. The
question of arming American ships to
repel submarine attacks, notWith-
standing the failure of Congress to
confer upon the President this spe-
cific authority, will be discussed and
possibly decided by President Wilson
Gregory has given the President an
offhand opinion that the executive
possesses the authority in his own
right to supply American ships with
defensive armament and that the al
o forgotten statute of 1919, provid-
ing that American merchantmen might
defend themselves from attacks by
any vessels except the warships of a
friendly power, creates no bar to the
provision Of defense against German
submarines.
Cabinet members contend that Ger
mar submarines are now guilty of pi-
ratical attacks on American ships,
whereas the statute of 1919 contem-
plated that the Warships of friendly
powers would observe the rules of
maritime warfare. The prohibition of
defense against warships, therefore, is
said not to apply to German sub
marines.
Upon the decision of the Cabinet on
the arming of American merchantmen
will depend to a large extent the Presi-
conclusion as to the necessity |
of calling an extra session of COn-
gress. If the President decides to pro-
coed on his own authority he will be
disposed to postpone a summons of
the new Congress pending his effort
to establish q ~cloture rule in the Sen
ate preventing a repetition of the fill
which killed the armed neu-
bill.

London.-Foreign Secretary thinner
mann's instructions to the German
minister in Mexico, as published il
the United States, are admitted il
Berlin to have been correctly quoted
according to q dispatch to Reuter-
from the German capital by way o
Amsterdam. The dispatch quotes the
following telegram received in Am
sterdam from Berlin on Friday ant
which was apparently sent by The
Wolff bureau, the semi-official Ger
man news agency:
THE American press contains re
ports about the instructions from the
ministry of foreign affairs to the Ger
man minister in Mexico City, in the
event that Germany after the procla
nation of unrestricted submarine war
fare failed to keep the United States
neutral.
"These reports are based on the fol,
lowing facts:
After the decision had been taken
to begin unrestricted submarine war
fare on February l, we had to reckon,
in view of the previous attitude of the
American government, with the posi-
bility of conflict with the United
States.
THAT this calculation was right is
proved by the fact that the American
government severed diplomatic rela-
tons with Germany soon after the
proclamation of a barred zone, and
asked other neutrals to follow her ex-
ample.
anticipating these possibilities, it
was not only the right but also the
duty of our government to take pre-
cautions in time-in the event of a
military conflict with the United
States-in order to balance, if posi-
BILE, the adhesion to our foes of a new
enemy.
"The German minister at Mexico,
therefore, was instructed in the mid

should offer to the Mexican govern
