Washington, D. C.-Amercan Min
lister Reinsch at Peking reported to

China had severed diplomatic rela-
tions with Germany and that the Ger
man minister had been handed his

Chinas severance of relations had
been expected here for weeks. The
action of the United States in break

received with acclamation by Chinese
officials and the press, particularly
Young China. The fe.ling against
Germany has run high, not only be-
cause scores of Chinese on their way
TO Europe have lost their lives

details.
The seizure of German ships may
be taken by Germany as an act OF
war, as in the case of Portugal.
Chinas action may be followed by
the seizure of German property in
China. which is very extensive. In
addition to all concessions held by
Germany in Chinese cities which
presumably will be seized as quasi
public property, are extensive Ger

The latest figures show about 5000
German civilians sattered through

From Iorpedoing of AL

Washington, ID. C,-In the absence
of official dispatches on the destruc-
tion of the steamship Algonquin, Off
cials herel withheld comment, but
the unofficial view was that nothing
in the act changes the situation be-
tween the United States and Ger
many.
President Wilson already has tax
en- steps to place the nation in state
of armed neutrality, which, with the
breaking of relations with Germany,
is probably the last measure possible
short OF war
American ships are now being
armed to defend themselves against
unlawful submarine attack. The gen
eral view today is that the armng
OF ships is the only step possible
short OF IA declaration of war, which
may be made only by Congress.
The real issue of peace or war is
expected TO come when an American
armed ship has clash with Ger
man submarine.
a series OF distinctions of Ameri-
can ships probably would arouse Con-
gress to declaration of war, if in
deed Germany should noy declare
war on the United States, as many
expect, as the result of the first en-
counter with one OF her submarines.

OF action by Congress, all that could
be done has been done to meet such
