Washington, Feb. 12.-Within few
days the government will find a way
whereby American vessels now held
in port by fear of German submarines
may arm themselves and resume their
sailings, it was intimated strongly by
officials today. This will be accom-
plished by private means The gov
ernment will not supply guns or gun.
ners direct, or even formally advise
arming. Ship owners have stated
that heretofore they have been unable
to obtain either guns or gun crews.
Officials today were still inclined to
regard the latest offer of Germany to
discuss the means Of preventing war,
presented through the Swiss minister
Saturday, only as an effort to cast on
the United States the appearance of
being belligerent. The official atti-
tude seemed to be that the United
States and German governments can
have no diplomatic dealings until Ger
many gives up her program of unre-
stricted submarine warfare, and that
any other advances meanwhile serve
only to becloud the issue of Ameri-
can rights. It is not certain whether
any answer will be made to the sug'
gestiOn.
Officials noted with interest today
that the submarines toll Of merchant
ships yesterday had sunk to the level

(united Press)


Washington, Feb. 12.-Administra-
ton officials began today to appease
impatience Of shipping men over the
forced detention of American vessels
in home ports because Of Germany's
U-boat warfare. This feeling appeared
likely to hasten the solution of the
question of armament of merchant
men. Authorities feel that Germany
ought not to be in position to say
that she has driven shipping from the
seas through aar Of her submarines,
and despite rhe talk of German at
tempts to staae OF the war, 1t is
doubted that Germany is prepared to
modify her submarine campaign. The
government has found that 1t must do
something to help shipping, which by
all rights can travel only with arma-
ment.
destruction of tonnage by German
submarines showed an upward trend
today, according to Lloyds' report to
the state department. The report said
12,262 tons were destroyed since the
last report.
Reserve guns Of the United tSates
navy designed for use on American
liners will probably be available to
American ship owners soon. They
are just the type for merchant ship.

Most Of the Members Give Sign

Berne, Switzerland, Fob. 12.-Ger
many is delaying the departure Of a
large number Of AmeTi an citizens in
Berlin for possible refaiiatory meas
ures in case war between the United
States and Germany is declared. The
foreign Office is striving to keep the
United States out of the war. The
hostile effort of statesmen, however,
is only lukeWarm.
Ambassador Gerard began commun-
icating at once with president Wilson
at Washington, using code messages
for the first time from a neutral point.
Gerard and his party entered neutral
Switzerland in "a triumphant and gay
spirit. They said they were delight
ed to leave war-stricken Germany for
the quiet and peaceful Switzerland.
German Threat.
Gerard's code messages carried de-
tails of the German threat to hold Am
erican newspaper men in Germany as
hostages unless he would sign
treaty guaranteeing that German
ships in American harbors be releas-.
ed. He said he refused to deal with
Germany in any way, telling them he
had been ordered to leave Germany.
1t is understood that he plainly told
Count Montegals, chief OF the Ger
man division of the German-American
office, that the United States would
regard the holding of Americans in
Germany as a cause for war.
Most OF the members Df Ambassa-
dor Gerard pastY RaySKsa genuine
sigh of relief this afternoon, when the
Swiss border was reached, for the
strain of the last few days had told
on most of them. Ambassador Ger
ard met cordially the horde of new!-
paper men who crowded about him on
his arrival at Zurich, clamoring for
interviews for papers all over the CIV
ilized world, but he kept rigidly to
his determination not to speak for
publication until after he has reported
to President Wilson.
The strain of the situation for the
Americans in Berlin has been height
ened toward the end by the efforts "f
the German authorities to induce Mr..
Gerard to open negotiations sor an
amendment to the Prussian-Amer;can
treaty of 1899.
. T told Count LMontagelas Id sit
there until kingdom come, and would
not leave until all Americans were
permitted free exit
American Ambassador Gerard thus
told of the reply he made when Count
intimated that Americans
would be held in Germany as hostages
unless he signed treaties practically
guaranteeing the safety of German
ships interned in American harbors.

erican, were in question, whenever
possible.
NeutraIs to Be Warned. 4
Enemy merchantmen, when recog1
nized as such, were ordered to be
sunk on sight, but neutral merchant
men were to be warned when sucn
action, in their judgment, was consist
ent with the object of the campaign
and safety of their own ships.
1t was realized, however, after the
prompt and resolute stand taken BY
President Wilson, that these orders
could only be palliative and only de-
fer, not avoid, an ultimate break.
Also, that if President Wilson stood
by his announcement that the destruc-
ton of American lives or ships would
be regarded a san act of hostility, q
casus belli must come sooner or later.

number of Americans on enemy ships.
