Amsterdam, Jan. 31.-The "Reich,

thanks for birthday congratulations ex-

ion in this country entirely away
from the possibility of war and to
have focused attention on the terms
of near peace.
A revulsion is expected to take
place in the Entente countries, with
the result that the world war will
enter a period Of frightfulness un-
imagined heretofore. With the mass
ing for huge offensives by land and
the announcement of ruthlessness by
sea, officials look forward to at least
a spring and summer of unprece-
denied slaughter.
The German note sweeps away all
the issues that have previously
doomed so large, such as what arma-
ment a merchant ship can carry,
where it must be located, how it may
be used, whether the ship is char
tered, requisitioned or still private,
and replaces them with one clear
issue which cannot be brooked or
ignored.

The two years of undersea warfare
which Germany has waged-now ruth
lessly and terribly, now cautiously
against the ships of her enemies has
been the outward manifestation of a
scarcely less bitter strife which has
been carried on in her council cham
bers.
Two figures stand behind the long
tale of courage and crime to which the
German U-boats add new chapters
each month. Since that long distant
time when the United States sent It's
first warning of "strict accountability"
these two have been struggling for su-
premacy in the naval affairs of the
German Empire.
One is Won Bethmann-Hollweg, the
suave and tactful Chancellor of Ger
many. The other is Won Tirpitz, apos-
tie of "shrecklichkeit," until March 10,
1916, Grand Admiral Of the Kaiser's
navy. and recently reinforced by Won
Hindenburg.
Hollweg is the diplomat, reluctant &c
offend, eager to placate the peaceiui
nations, bidder for neutral sympa-
thy. Tirpitz is the fighter, merciless
and INSCRIPTIONS, a scofter az inter
national law. stanch believer IN the
doctrine that might makes right.
in Struggle from Beginning
Almost from the beginning of the
great war, these two leaders of hostile
schools of national thought in Germany
have been locked in a struggle for alb
solute leadership. For a time during
those terrible days when the Lusi-
tania, the Arabic, the Falaba, the
Gulhight, and hundred other ships
were torpedoed without warning, Won
Tirpitz had the ascendancy.
Then, as the wrath of the neutral
world gathered over Germany, his star
was clouded and the crafty Chancellor's
power gained in strength. This cul-
minated in what was then believed to
have been a permanent victory for
Hollweg in April of 1916, when the
grand admiral's epaulettes were taken
from Tirpitz and placed upon the
shoulders Of Won Cappell.
But long ago, before the war was
anything but a dream which troubled
Europe, Tirpitz had gained nickname
which was a prophecy, "Tirpitz, der
Ewige," the German people called him
Tirnitz, the eternal. Germany's
threat Of renewal of the U-boat war
in all its ruthlessness is a sign that
the eternal one" has only been gath
ering his strength for battle, and is
now ready again to rise in his might.
Would Fight TO- the Death
The dive of the submarine and the
hiss of the torpedo plunging toward
its mark is the only way in which the
deposed Grand Admiral Of Germany
would answer the unarmed protests Of
neutrals. Given his way, he would
fight, fight, fight until his land had
trampled the rest OF the earth beneath
its feet or lay dead in the dust. He

London. Jan. 3i.-The British gov
ernment's threat of reprisals toward
Germany for her declaration that she
will sink without warning any hospl-
tai ships she can reach in the English
Channel shows how bitter the feeling
of the nation toward Germany is be-
coming, as we'll as the shifting OF opin-
ion in the Foreign Office.
There is every reason TO expect IN
creased German efforts to sink all
merchant shipping. iMr. Diapers dis
patch was cabled before word of the
German governments decision to do
this had reached London. Naval
circles here expect Germany soon to
open a bitter struggle at sea, throw
ing aside all pretence of carrying on
warfare according to the laws Of civ
ilized nations.
Charges Declared Unfoundcd
Already Germany is charging that
the placing of the new British mine
field is an aggressive measure, though
when her ships mined the east coast
of the Channel the measure was not
heraloed as a means Of offence.
Although the press and people of
Britain often clamored for reprisals
during the Zeppelin raids of the last
two years, the government has re-

charges that the British hospital ships
are being put to improper uses.
