Baitimore German Correspondent. American travellers do not necessar- rilly have to choose ships of belliger- there are ships of other nation- alities. The easiest way to prevent difficulties would be the issuing of an official warning to the American peo- ple that those who travel on belliger- hips do so on their own risk. Detroit Abendpos As President Wilson filatly refused to issue an embargo on the export of war material, Germany was justified to carry on the war by submarines. The Arabic was a swimming arsenal. Its sinking will contribute to prevent the British from meting out death and mutilation to soldiers of the Cen- tral Powers. The fact that the over- whelming number of passengers and crew have been saved is proof enough that the steamer was not torpedoed without warning. Cincinnati Freie Presse. The Arabic has carried an immense amount of war material, and it can- not be estimated how many German soldiers have bled as the result of wounds received from American bul- lets which this ship brought to Eng- land and her Allies. Therefore, we may be satisfied that the trips of this British ammunition ship have ceased. If our administration cannot be per- suaded to stop the unlimited export of arms and ammunition, then Ger- many must protect herself. Chicago (Ill.) Staats-Zeitung. ‘We hardly believe that anybody will venture to assert that the Arabic was not a hostile becat from the German point of view. The Arabic chiefly carried war supplies since the out- break of the war. The crew formed a riflle club and practiced daily with long range rifles of heavy calibre- The seamen would trail a small raft astern of the vessel upon which a stick of wood would be stuck to represent a submarine periscope. This served as a target. If Americans knew this and used the boat just the same, they are to bear the consequences of their reckless actions. If they did not know it, England is responsible for the loss of American lives. Cincinnati Volksblatt. indications point to a satisfac- explanation of the sinking of the Arabic. The fact, however, remains that amicable relations between the 'nited States and Germany hang by a thread, which might be snapped at any moment by some untoward state of affairs could be easily removed by applying common sense, which would, and ought to, induce the president to tell American citizens to save their country from embarassment by trav- elling under the American flag.

The taking of Riga woutd afford a rhost convenient landing place for the supply of the invading forces with provisions and munitions and would relieve the strain on overland trans- portation. Before Riga is taken the Russian naval forces in the Gulf must be de- stroyed and Germany should not find this very difficult as she can bring an cnormous superiority in ships and £uns over anything that Russia has in those waters. The recent naval operations appear to have been merely a reconnoitering expedition as the Germans have claimed officially. That they have now forced the Gulf or Riga proves this.

In such an event, it was pointed out, it will be necessary to conserve the financial re- | sources of the country and at the same time make it ill advised to float a for- eign loan of the size talked of. Securities Reported Abroad. Bankers with important European connections were not inclined to be- lieve, the reports of huge amounts of securities and gold said to have been on the Arabic consigned to banking firms and stock exchange houses. The amount of the securiizes, according to some dispatches, was placed as high 000,000, but the gold on board as thought, would not exceed $200,000, It was learned definitely that one in- ternational banking firm was to have received $300,000 in stocks and bonds as deliveries on sales previously made by foreign holders of American securi- ties. In this instance, which, it was said, applied to others, no permanent loss was expected, as every precaution had besn taken for their replacement in just such a contingency as a sub- marine attack. The securities had been photographed, the photographs haveing been dispatched on a neutral vessel along with the insurance poli- cies. The photographs will be used as affidavits of means of ldentification in presenting claims for the issuance of duplicates. Serial Numbers on Record. It was also pointed out that even if no photographs had been taken the serial numbers of the securities shipped would be on record, and af- ter a more or less prolonged and tedious process of comparison, inves- tigation and affidavit making, dupli- cate securities might be issued. It was reported that the Arabic carried a large amount of the stock of the Canadian Car and Foundry company, a concern which has received more than $150,000,000 in war orders from the Russian government One of the factors that tended to discredit the rumor that a large amount of gold was in the hold of the White Star liner was the information obtained at the offices of J, P. Mor- gan & Co. that they had no knowledge of a shipment of the yellow metal con- signed to them. Officials of the Inter- national Mercantile Marine company also claimed to be equally ignorant of the character of the ship's cargo. They did not know whether gold or securi- ties were on board. Final arrangements were made yes- terday for the sale by the Morgan firm representing French banks and the French government of the Penn- sylvania company 3 3-4 per cent. franc bonds that were used as part collateral for the recent loan to France of $43,- 000,000. The proceeds of the bonds, which were sold to Kuhn, Loeb & Co., acting for the railroaa, will be used to pay off about $27,000,000 of the | French loan. NOT TO GOTIATE LOAN.

The heavy burden of thousands of millions will be borne through de- cades by and not by us, “Both the first war loans were cov ered partly by the war chest and par- ty by cash in hand at the Reichshaup- tkasse (imperial treasury) at the out- break of the war. To this must oe added the surplus of the extraordin- ary budget of 1914-'15, which, in- stead of the expected 58,000,000 marks ($14,600,000,) amounted to 219,000,000 marks ($54,750,000.) “Beyond this, greater amounts must be raised provisionally by dis- counting imperial exchequer bonds at the Reichbank and private banks. The sums experded remained within the country with the exception of unimportant amounts.” Continuing, Dr. Helffrich declared speculative business, which already had revived, had to be suspended, as all available money was needed hy the fatherland. Subscriptions to the third war loan, he said, could be made through the postofice, and small subscribers for 1,000 marks or less would be permitted to pay in instalments. To Reduce Traffic in Money. From larger subscribers imperiul treasury bonds, bearing no interest and not yet due, would be accepted as payment, with a reduction of b per cent. To reduce as far as pos- sible the traffic in money and ‘o avoid a disturbance of the money market he said, the issue price would be higher. | Dr. Helfferich, discussing the war expenditures of the various powers, | said: | “Up to the present the German t- | tal expenditures have been highest, | but th are now being exceeded | Great Britain The coalition of our enemies now bearing almost tw thirds of the total cost of the war y GIRL, Hartford, PROBABLY 21 KIDNAPPED, whour, Aug who was on her father, to fiartford with | Fadal Bas msteri- Thur Fennsylvania station in Pittshurg hei cusly disappeared from the nd Tiartford relatives think a with her 1 The girl is only old, but ig attractive ana suitors, cach of whom had hinted kidnapping her if her fainer did sanction a marriage.
