REPLY TO GERMANY’S FRYE NOTE CABLED Knight, William United States Reaffirms Position that Prussian American treaty of 1828 Was Violated. Washington, Aug. 11.—The Amer- ican reply to the last German note re- garding the sinking of the Amer- i ican ship William P. Frye was cabled to Berlin last night and probably will be given out for publication Satur- day. While the original position of the state department that the Prussian- American treaty of 1828 was vioclated by the destruction of the vessel is re- affirmed, it is understood that the United States agrees to accept pay- ment for the Frye under the condi- tions suggested in the last German note, obviating an appeal to arbitra- tian at The Hague. Germany stipu- lates that the payment shall not in- volve the admission of a treaty viola- tion; the American note is sald to stipualte that no treaty rights are waived by acceptance. The amount ta be paid will be fixed by two com- missioners, one appointed by each government. The German position, as outlined in the last note, is that payment of indemnity for ships des- troyed is all that the treaty contem- plates. The United States contends that any American ship even if laden with contraband, is protected from destruction by article 13 of the treaty, although it is not claimed that | a contraband cargo would be so pro- tected. Germany has held that since the sinking af ships is not specifically pro- hibited in the treaty, principles of in- ternational law must govern each case, the treaty being satisfied by payment. A German prize court in July held the Berlin government liable under treaty for payment for the Frye. The amount was not fixed as the United States had entered no specific claim B 900 Trumball Stree:, ARBOU Rug and Drapery Co. Opposite the Allyn House, for damages.
