SHOCKSWASHI President Wilson Startled By News of Ship’s Disaster ‘Washington, Aug. 20.—News the torpedoing of the British steamer Arabic, of the White Star line, with Americans on board, came as a shock to officials of the United States gov- ** ernment, who had hoped, since the dispatch of the last American note, there would be no further aggrava- tion of an already tense situation be- | tween the United States and Ger- many. Official information was meagre, and it was only through pross dis- patches that it was heard here that the vesscl was torpedoed without warning. While it was recognized that a canvass of the survivors might reveal that no American lives were lost, the torpedoing, without warn- ing, of a vessel carrying Americans has in itself been pronounced by the United States government as a vio- Jation o its rights which, if repeated, would be regarded as “deliberately | unfriendly.” Secretary .Lfllulng’s Statement. In the last note to Germany, Which was generally accepted as the final word on the principles of the ques- tion from the United States, Secre- tary Lansing used the {ullov&_‘lng lan- guage In referring to violations of | American rights in the war zomne, “Friendship itself prompts it (the United States government) to say to v the Imperial government that repe- * tition by the commanders of German / maval vessels of acts in contraven- tion of those rights must be regarded by the government of the United States, when they effect American oit- izens, as deliberately unfriendly.” Will Await Details. What the course of the United States would be no official would pre- dict because of the absence of detaii- “Y ed information. It must be estab- lished authoritatively whether any warning was given and whether the vessel attempted to escape. If mno American lives were lost, it was thought in most quarters tonight that drastic steps were improbable, but in the event it is found Americans were drowned, a rupture in diplomat- wiic relations was everywhere discussd “as likely. The attack on the Arabic came without official intimation from Ber- lin that submarine commanders would persist in torpedoing ships | without warning and in the face also | of constant reiterations in German quarters here that in the future pas- menger vessels would be given due warning. The incident, therefore, e3- peclally since the ship was bound for the United States and had no contra- {band.” In some quarters there was a disposition to think the German sub- marine commander might have ex- ceeded his orders cr'made a mistake. German Viewpoint Awalted, The general immunity which pas- genger liners of belligerent flags, car- rving Americans, seemed to have en- joyed in the last few weeks had de- Veloped a feeling of confidence that the German government would avoid any incident that might intensify feei- Ing in the United States und bring the relations of the two countries nearer “the breaking point. For this reasom, elong with information as to exactly | what oceurred when the Arabic was | attacked, the viewpoint of the Ger- man foreign office is eagerly awaited. News Startles Wilson. President Wilson was startled by the news. He spent the entire after- noon and evening trying to get de~ «.tailed information. Though obviously worried, he took the position that judgment should be withheld until official details were received. The president had just finished a conference Wwith Attorney General Gregory and was just preparing to go'! golfing when word of the sinking of the steamer reached him. He im- ediately abandoned his plans and @ave omders that all information, ufficial and unofficial, be forwarded to him as quickly as possible. A cable- gram came from Vice Consul Thomp. ron at Qneenstown telling of the sink- Ing of the steamer ana :ater the vice consul reported the names of sixteen American survivors. ‘White House secretaries remained on duty during the evening and as press despatches ggiving detalls were rece:ved they were ‘communicated to the president, who sent out several times for late edi- tlons of newspapers. No Legal Claim, The decision of the United States tc refuse all claims for 1ife or prop- erty lost aboard the ships torpedoed with due warning was made clear yes- gerday when it became known that a “tlaim in the case of Jonn Wall, a muleteer, killed when the Armenian was sunk, would not be taken up by the state department, The depart- ment holds that there can be no legal claim in cases Ilike tne Armenian where ample warning was given and the ship refused to obey, even when subjected to shell fire, > AN ot » " | l MAY DISCUSS WAR.

She claimed that as she was alighting from a trolley car at Francis street the automobile came past without stopping or slowing down, She said that while she could not estimate the speed, it was going fast enough to scare her and cause her to leap back onto the running board of the car. James Deehan, conductor, said the auto was going an hour and ulthough he held out his hand as a signal to stop, the driver did not heed the warning. | Gustave Carlson sald|the auto was going at a rate of thirty miles an hour and did not stop before passing He said the machine came within two feet of striking Mrs. Roche.

There are thousands of Macedonians in the United States who call themselves Bulgarians and who when summoned by Serbia to the colors tore up the summons.

Governor Hot on Trail, Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 20.—Gov. Nate Harris, in his statement on the lynching of Leo M. Frank, published today, said that he would do all in his power to discover and bring to justice the perpetrators “belioving that the people at large do not Jjustify the wave of lawlessness that seems to bo spreading through the state.” In concluding his statement, which was given in the form of an inter- view, the governor sald: * It is es- pecially distressing to me, because the attack was made upon the state's own prison bullt, not to resist the vio- lence of its citizens outside, but to keep Into confinement the weak and helpless convicts who were unfit for service in the chain gangs of the counties.” Resistance Impossiblie. The statment, which was devoted largely to a review of the happen- ings at the prison on the night of August 16, when nk was abduct- ed, points out , officials had believed that s ack on the place [ to et a prisoncr could be withstood until the Milledgeville militia could be called out. The governor says, however, that the gang that took Frank worked out well laid plans so quickly that resistance was impos- sible. Governor Harris gave out his statment after a conference with the state prison commission, at which it was intimated plans for an investiga- tion of whole affalr would be dis- cussed. Would Like Information, What plans, if any, were formula- ted, were not made public. The gov- ernor had stated that he wanted to get any information members of the prison commission might have.

Navassa Island Lighthouse. (Washington Star.) Because the Panama canal, when it comes into its own with the close of the European war, will refashion the trade routes of the world and lead an endless procession of vessels through waters hitherto unfrequented the United States government is pre- paring to go far afield amd establish a lighthouse on on Navassa island, a small rock islet of the West Indies east of Haitl, The light will be unique in that it will be the only one maintained by the United States alome on land not a part of its national domain. This government is not wholy without claim to the half-mile of rock that constitutes the island, however, for « generation ago guano deposits were exploited by an American company, which found it a ‘“no-man’s-land.” At that time the courts of the United States assumed jurisdiction when a murder was committed on the iso- lated patch of rock and brought the murdered to book at Baltimore. When the need of a lighthouse on the is- land was felt, therefore, it was not deemed necessary to negotiate with any other country, though several countries have at times claimed ow- nership, Congress appropriated $125,000 for the erection of the Navassa light, and the federal lighthouse bureau will soon call for bids. The light will have a beam of 56,000 candle-power, that can be seen for 27 nautical miles. There is one other lighthouse that is in a way comparable to Navassa. This is the light on Cape Spartel, the Moroccan Learland across from Glbraltar, which has been maintained since 1867 by joint contributions from Great Britain, the United States, Morocco, Austria, Belgium, Spain, France, Italy, the Netherlands and portugal, There are several other rocky ig- lands and reefs in the Carribean sea that should he marked by lights for the protection of Panama can- | al traffic, according to mariners, and it is probable that when the lanes of travel become well established the | Navassa precedent may be followed by the establishment of several others of what may he called extra-territorial Uncle Sam’s | lighthouses, Old Cornhill’s Revival, (Now York Herald.) In the name of “progress” on of the famous old book shops of Boston is to change Its quarters. That old street, the Choapside of New Rng- land, one an important center of the city's trade, and, with its half-dozen hook stores a favorite haunt for the men who gave Boston its literary reputation, has a charm today that none of the world's ‘“great white ways” can rival, a charm which ap- peals to those with an appreciation for the appearance of antiquity and a fondness for the memories of the past, It was in Cornhill that Thomas Burnham founded his book shop in 1825, and from its door issued the young Thomas Oliver Hazard Perry Burnham with a basket of books on his arm going day after day to the wharves to trade with seafaring men. Now after the lapse of three-quarters of a century the shop bearing that name is back in the old street. Oliver Wendell Holmes had his chair and desk in the “Old Corner.” but then Cornhill had Colesworthy's, with the bidden nook where Whit- ‘er used to !lke to snuggle into a big chair for an hour or two of brows- Ing, and Littlefield’s with books in the aisles and its half-desk floor was a Mecca for Lowell, Longfellow, Al- drich, John Fiske, and, still surviving former Mayor Green, and of collec tors, genealogists, historlans and bi- biliophiles from all over the land, In “It seems un-American but boys and | SPECIAL TROLLEY EXCURSION RETURN AUGUST 25TH ° the Triangle at 1:37 P, ing, Leave Savin Rock at 8:00 P.
