Bernstorff Is Guarded.

Soon after Count von Bernstorff's passports arrived, United States se- cret service men threw guard about the ambassador and his suite to make certain that the hospitality of the United States is not violated while he remains on American soil The status of Count Tarnowski, the Austrian ambassador, was undecided, although he called at the State De- partment to arrange for presenting his credentials to President Wilson.
 For months, ever since relations with Germany became acute, there have been ominous signs of threaten ed activities of German sympathizers and disloyal Americans if diplomatic relations were broken off. The ad- ministration has not been unmindful of these. Various branches of the government have informed themselves on the subject far more completely than might be thought. Officials ex- press themselves as satisfied that they will be able to cope with the sit uation.
 In the army and navy and in the citizenship generally officials realize that the composite character of Amer ican nationality makes it difficult not to ind some persons who will express sympathy with the land of their birth.
 The attempt to sink the torpedo boat Jacob Jones at Philadelphia is recognized as an instance of some of the things which may be expected, but on the whole all the agencies of the government believe they have made preparations to meet such exi- gencles or are prepared to meet tt5rn as they arise

 Washington. News of the sinking of the Housatonic created a sensation here, but State Department officials pointed out that 1t would depend en- tfrely upon the circumstances wheth- or the incident would affect the pres ont situation.
 The ship was carrying contraband, and If she was destroyed with proper warning and provision for the safety Of her crew or in an attempt to es- cape, the United States would merely have claim for damages as in the Frye case.
 The first effect of the incident in of fetal quarters was to direct attention anew to the presidents declaration in his address to Congress that if Ameri- can ships and lives were sacrificed "in needless contravention of the just and reasonable understandings of in ternational law" he would again go be- fore Congress for authority to fuse any means that may be necessary for the protection of our seamen and our people"
