PRESIDENT WILSON
Must Be Clothed With Power
to Meet Submarine
Menace.
tBy the Associated Press,

Washington, March President
Wilson last night -informed the coun-
try: in . statement that he may be
without power TO- arm merchant ships
and take other steps to meet the Ger
man acknowledgements In the absence
OF authority from congress.
An extra session Of congress, the
president says, is required to clothe
him with authority, but it is useless
to call one while the senate works
under the present rules which permit
e small minority to keep an over
whelming majority from acting.
The president proposes. therefore,
that the special session which he has
called to meet today revise the rules
TO supply the means Of action and
save the country from disaster.

GERMAN NOTE
AR0USES NATION
Zimmermann's Instructions
Unexpectedly Revealed.

Washington, March Full Off
cial confirmation Of Germany's in
trigue to ally Mexico and Japan with
her to make war on the United
States, as revealed last night by the
Associated Press, was given today at
the White House, the state depart.
ment and in the senate.
On the floor of the senate it was
announced that democratic senators
had been authorized to state that the
revelation including the text of the
instructions from the German For
eign Minister Zimmerman to the
German minister, Won Eckhardt at
Mexico City were correct.
On motion of Senator Lodge, the
senate at once took up a proposal to
ask the president to communicate the
facts to congress officially.
After considerable discussion, Sem
ator Hardwick insisted upon an OBJ
lection to immediate consideration of
the Lodge resolution in order that
there might be time for deliberation
by the foreign relations committee.
A copy of Zimmermann's instruc-
tions to Won Eckhardt sent through
Won Bernstorff and now in possession
of the United States government, is as
follows:
Berlin, Jan. 10, 1917.
On the first of February we intend
to begin submarine warfare unre-
stricted. In spite of this, it is our
intention to endeavor to keep neutral
the United States of America.
II this attempt is not successful,
we propose an alliance on the fol-
lowing basis with Mexico; that we
shall make war together and together
make peace. We shall give general
financial support and it is understood
that Mexico is to reconquer the lost
territory in New Mexico, Texas, and
Arizona. The details are left to you
for settlement.
You are Instructed to inform the
president of Mexico of the above in
the greatest confidence as soon as it
is certain that there will be an out
break of war with the United States
and suggest that the president of
Mexico, on his own initiative, should
communicate with Japan suggesting
adherence at once to this plan; at
the same time, offer to mediate be-
tween Germany and Japan.
Please call to the attention of
the president of Mexico that the en-
ployment of ruthless submarine war
fare now promises to compel England
to make peace in few months.
(Signed) ZIMMERMANN.

BERLIN ADMITS
GERMAN INTRIGUE
German Press Mystified as to
Manner In Which America
Secured Information.

LONDON, March s. Foreign
Secretary Zimmermann's in
structions to the German minis
ter to Mexico, as published in the
United States, are admitted in
Berlin to have been correctly
quoted, says a Reuters dispatch
from Berlin via Amsterdam.
London, March 3.-Reuter's quotes
the following telegram received in
Amsterdam from Berlin on Friday,
and which was apparently sent by the
Wolff Bureau, the semi-official Ger
man news agency:
"The American press contains re-
ports about instructions from the
ministry of foreign affairs to the
German minister in Mexico City, in
the event that Germany after the pro-
clamation of unrestricted submarine
warfare failed to keep the United
States neutral. These reports were
based upon the following facts:
after the decision had been taken
to begin unrestricted submarine war
fare on Feb. /, we had to reckon in
view Of the, previous attitude Of the
American government with the pos
sibility of conflict with the United
States. That the calculation was
right is proved by the fact that the
American government severed diplo-
matte relations with Germany soon
after proclamation of barred zone
and asked other neutrals to follow
her.
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 mill
itary conflict with the United States
in order to balance If possible the
adhesion to our foes of new enemy.
The German minister at Mexico there
fore was instructed in the middle Of
January that in the event of the Unit
ed States declaring war he should Of
fer to the Mexican government an al
lance and arrange further details.
These instructions, by the way, ex-
pressly directed the minister to make
no advances to the Mexican govern
ment unless he knew for certainty
that America was going to declare
war.
"How the American government re-
ceived information of the instructions
sent by secret way to Mexico is not
known. It appears however that the
treachery7sand it only must have
been treachery-was committed on
American territory

Vice Foreign Minister Calls
Germany's Attempt Ride

(By the Associated Press)

TOXIC, March 2 delayed,
March 3).-A declaration of the
Japanese government through
Foreign Minister Viscount Mot
ono, that Japan has received no
proposition from Mexico or Ger
many to join in possible war
against the United States, was

ment made to the Associated
Press in behalf of the govern

1--WE we're greatly surprised to hear
of the German proposal, ;" he said.
1--WE cannot imagine what Germany
is thinking about to conceive that she
could possibly involve ussin war with
the United States merely by asking
Mexico. This is too ridiculous for
words. Needless to say, Japan re-
mains faithful to her allies"
In response to q question regard

Japanese measures, which were
brought forward in Idaho and Ore
