Talk of Sending a
Battleship for Gerard

Washington. Feb. 24.-Carl W. Acker-
mans dispatches to The Tribune giving
the news that Ambassador Gerard had
warned Americans not to take passage
with him, as he had no safe conduct
from the Germans. aroused very biting
comment here, even before Senator
Lodge made his speech in the Senate
this afternoon, in which he demanded
that the navy take steps to protect
Gerard.
The difference between the present
condition Of the German Ambassadors
return to Germany from the United
States and the return of the American
Ambassador from Berlin was pointed
out. Won Bernstortf safe by the prom
ise and guarantee Of the enemies of his
country, Gerard in fear of his life be-
cause of the threats of a government
with which the United States is sup
posed to be at peace.
There was talk in both houses Of
Congress about sending battleship
for Gerard Unfortunately, this is a
matter entirely in the hands of the Ad-
ministration, and the Administration
fears that sending a battleship would
be regarded by the Germans as an un-
friendly act.
The critics OF the President in Com
gress hesitate to offer a resolution
directing that battleship be sent for
Mr.. Gerard and other Americans, be.
cause they would be accused of trying
10 embarrass the Administration.

TOTAL SINCE FEBRUARY |
by Cabie 20 Tns Tribunal


London, Feb. 24.-The sinking by
German submarines of three Dutch
steamers and crippling of four more
is the most direct challenge that
Germany has yet given any neutral
The attacks took place Thursday,
but did not become known until to-
day.
Apparently there were no lives
lost, as the attacks were made with
in a few hours run Of Falmouth,
where the seven steamers had been
tied up.
The vessels were all bound TO or
from Dutch ports, were under direct
control of the Dutch officials, the
four inbound were loaded with food
stuffs and other necessaries for Hol-
land. and all steamed from Falmouth
under what they believed to be safe
conduct from the German govern
ment. They had not asked or re-
ceived advice from the British au-
thorities, and shipping men declare
that if they had done so they would
doubtless have gone through as safe
ly as do SO per cent of the ships in
these waters.
1t remains to be seen whether the
Dutch will treat the attacks as hos
tile act. All the facts seem to point
to a deliberate outrage. Advices
from Holland indicate the greatest
excitement there. The bourses
showed extreme weakness, and the
temper of the people is declared to
be highly infamed.
Holland Faces Food Crisis
Shipowners and other business men
are urging the Dutch government to
demand that an equivalent for the tom
mage lost or crippled be provided at
once from German ships interned in
Holland or America. The loss OF the
foodstuffs and the threat to further
shipments brings Holland to the verge
Of crisis in provisions.
In spite Of the strong pro-Germsn
leaning Of the Dutch court, IT Is be-
lieyed that a peremptory demand for
immediate and complete reparation is
the least that can be done. Those best
informed on the situation expect very
rapid developments. The blow has
been a severe one, not only to the ma
terial interests, but to the pride Of all
Holland.
The possibility that Holland would

been imminent for some time. Re-
Gently there was heavy concentration
of German troops along the Duteh

Sinking of Dutch Ships Taken
as Proof Germany
Will Not Yield
By STEVENSON II. EVANS

Washington, Feb. 24.-The SINK
ing of the Dutch ships sent a thrill
through the State, War and Navy
departments this afternoon. Tne
news dispelled any lingering notion
that Germany does not intend to
pursue to its desperate conclusion
the policy of submarine frightful-
ness.
There was anxious interest IN this
news at the White House. The re-
port of the probably safe arrival OF
the American freighters Rochester
ard Orleans, which were the first TO
venture unarmed into the forbidden
zone. was gratefully received.
Officials of the American State
Department and experts in the war
end Navy departments had been re-
flecting on the serious and gloomy
tone of the Lloyd George speech. 10
some that speech seemed an admis-
sion that for the moment the British
navy is unable to cope effective
with the submarine peril. mat
cninion now is strengthened by the
loss of the Dutch vessels.

Chances of Orleans and

Paris, Feb. 24.-The American freight
steamer Orleans is expected in Bor-
deaux with the tide on Monday, accord
ing to word received by the Bordeaux
Chamber. No information as to the
Rochester, also owned by the Kerr
Steamship Company of America, had
been received up to tonight.
The Orleans is raster than the Roch-
ester and is expected to be the first TO
make its way up the Gironde River.
Bordeaux is preparing to give rous-
ing reception to the two American
blockade runners, having full conf
dence that they will be able to evade
hostile submarines.
VI. Thornton, the representative in
France Of the Kerr Steamship Com
pany, said this afternoon that he had
no news of the ships, but he was per-
susded that, in the view OF the meas
ures that had been taken, both vessels
would be going up the Gironde BY Mon
day at the latest.
Not only in Bordeaux, but in Paris
and in the provinces the French are
manifesting an intense interest in the
voyage OF the two American vessels
Al some places bets have been made on
the outcome of the trip.

trails fully appreciate the havoc OF the
unretarded submarine campaign, not

minimize it and conceal the results al

Senator Lewis, the Democratic whip,
charged that Senator Lodge had not
upheld the President when he sought
to initiate a plan for peace in Europe.
"The Senator from Massachusetts"
continued Senator Lewis, would pose
as the captain patriot of the Republi-
can side, as the Senator ever support
ing a Democratic President in a coun-
try's crisis. He says he supported the
break with Germany. Yes; this was
because it might mean war and serve
the purposes of those who would drag
US into an alliance with Britain for
our life or death.
Nothing Woodrow Wilson can do
has done or desires to do to preserve
peace but that the Senator from Mas

smoking car and back stair gossip, If
il can slander the President, however
it discredit the nation and dishonor

Struggle in Senate
Ends in Agreement
on the Revenue Bill
lYrom he Tribune Bureaul

Washington, Feb. 24.-Prospects of
forcing an extra session of Congress
by talking the revenue or appropria-
ton measures to death faded tonight
when an agreement was reached be-
tween Republicans and Democrats to
vote on the revenue bill Wednesday
night at s o'clock. The Democrats had
forced the session late into the night
and had announced that they would
keep the Senate going night and day
70 break the filibuster.
The agreement means the end OF the
filibuster in the Senate.
This does not preclude the possibility
of the Republicans forcing an extra
session, but Republican Senator'S ad-
mitted after submitting the agreement
that they would probably permit the
consideration Cf other measures next
week, before the vote on the revenue
hill was taken. Following this vote
there will remain but three and nall
days before the present Congress eX-
pires by law, so that the possibilities
of defeating important legislation are
still large.
Extends to the House
Meantime, the filibuster had eX-
tended itzelf in a moderated form into

Madrid. Feb. 24.-Former AM
bassador Gerard cabled Secretary
Lansing again yesterday TO inquire
whether Germany had yet given as
slrances that the passports issued
to him in Berlin would be recognized
at sea. The question is whether the
passports given by the German gov
eminent to the departing ambas-
sador and his party were good only
tc the German frontier or for the
voyage through the U-boat war zone.
Mr.. Gerard insists that the Amer
lean government must either estao-
lish the unlimited validity Of the
German passports, thereby insurlng
himself and his party on board the
Infanta Isabel from submarine
search on the ocean, or provide a
naval escort.

Belgian Relief
Ships to Resume

Safe Route Provided-Ger'
many to Give Safe Con-
duct Passes
London, Feb. 24.-German authorl-
ties have ordered the closing OF all
schools in Belgium on account oil a
shortage of coal, says Central
News dispatch from Amsterdam.

Herbert C.. Hoover, chairman Of the
Commission for Relief in Belgium, an
nounced yesterday that the organlza-
t;on had made arrangements with Ger
many and with Great Britain which
nrovidcd a safe route for the rellet
ships sailing for Rotterdam,
within the next few days sixteen
sbips that have been tied up in United
States ports since Germany closed tne
ocean with its U-boats and gave p0ln'
70 tbe announcement by sinking PEI
a;an relief vessel, will sail laden with
provisions. - - tho
twenty ships are in ports OF tne
limited Kingdom, seven lie idle IN hot-
t.rdan and ten are on the way 10 the
iTn;ted states. Not since the armade OF
mercy was organized has its schedule
hem interrupted until Germanys warn
ing Of January 81. A..
Although the ships were tied up tne me
agents Of the commission were douoly
active. negotiating with the BRUSH any
German governments TO find some PAIN
hetween Germany's prohibited zone
ard the mine fields of the North sea
Their efforts to raise money were re,
doubled, for they realized that the peril
of the Belgian survivors might be acute
before a way was found to relieve them
and that if the way was found there
would be many ships to send out al
short notice.
MIR. Hoover has made no secret OF his
conviction that delay of few weeks
would render the plight of the BEL
CLANS desperate and that in order TO
nreyent thousands from dying from
starvation, even with the Service re,
stored, there must be vastly increased
contributions.
In making his announcement yester'
dav Mr.. Hoover said: "The commission
desires to point out that aside from
the broad principles of humanity IN
volved in the dependence of the Bel
oian people upon food supplies IN
America, that inssmuch as the com,
modities shipped to Belgium consist OF
/ those food supplies of which there Is
an exportaple surplus in the United
! States, it does fot in any way infringe
upon the necessities Of the American
people"
