Wholesale Prices LUSITANIA-ARABIC (" CASES TO THE HAGUE Germany's Suggestion to Settle Claims for Compensation * Berlin, Sept 3, Via. London, Sept. 3, 12:20 a. m.—Germany, according to Count Von Bernstorff’s instructions, offers to submit the claims for com- pensation arising out of the Lusitania and Arabic cases to The Hague for adjudication. Official circles in Berlin treat the negotiations now in progress with the United States on the submarine prob- lem as highly confidential and this makes it most difficult to obtain any suthoritative information or to trans- mit the views held in various quarters. The highest officials, nevertheless, ad- mit that they regard the situation with optimism—an optimism based on a knowledge of the instructions which have been issued and the de- velopments here which will probably facilitate the task of negotiation. Immunity From Attack. Count Von Bernstorff, the German ambassador at Washington, it is un- derstood, is in possession of fairly wide-reaching authority to negotiate for a settlement of the submarine Guestion, and it is believed that the proposals which he is authorized to make will strike at the heart of the problem as affecting the United States. They provide for immunity from attack without warning for pas- senger steamers which are to be de- stroyed only after they have been halted and full opportunity has been given to the passengers and crews to embark in the boats under conditions of safety.

How far beyond this _provision for the safety of the larger ships Count Von Bernstorff’s instructions go cannot be learned. Newspaper reports reaching There 1o the effect that thoe solution of the submarine problem is coupled with a settlement of the negotiations with Great Britain are declared in initiateq circles to be correct. It is true that Count von Bernstoff has been in- structed to say that the settlement of the old blockade problem would en- able Germany to drop the whole sub- marine warfare against commerce but this suggestion is apart from the pro- posals indicated above, which are in- dependent and unconditional. Danger for U. S. One high government official. in commenting on the situation, dilated on the danger for the United States itself in pressing its demands too far. He said: “There is no telling when the United States itself may want to use its submarines in a life and death struggle. It may perhaps be sorry 2 it has bound its hands too tightly.” The press continues to display re- straint, so as to avoi¢ ~embarrassing the government in the delicate nego- tiations. No paper follows the lead of the “National Zeitung” in praising Wilson, but there is an entire ab- sence of hostile or abusive comment or criticism of Chancellor von Beth- | mann-Hollweg’s policy. No Party to Settlement. | London, Sept. 3.—That Great Brit-| ain cannot be a consenting party to a settlement of the submarine ques- tion which puts a liner and its pas- senger into a class apart from a mer- chantman and its crew is the general attitude taken by the London news- papers on the note of Count von Bernstorff to the United States. “We acknowledge no such distinc- tion,” says the “Westminister Ga- zette,” and for full satisfaction of our claims we can accept nothing less | than re-establishment of the law | which protects all non-combatants, whether neutrals or rationals, wheth- er they are traveling on liners or on crdinary merchantmen. “Our case has been admirably de- fined by President Wilson, both in the note he wrote on February 10, | when Germany had given notice of her intention to abandon legality, anq in the further note after the sinking of the Lusitania. In these no dis- tinction was made between a liner and a merchantman. 5 5 “We cannot help hoping that the United States will put itself on record in support of the doctrine as forcibily expounded in the President’s further communications.” Comment in Paris. Paris. Sept. 3.—Commenting upon Germany’s communication to the TUnited States in regard to submarine warfare, the “Temps” expresses the opinion that Germany will now en- | deavor to pursuade America to en-! gage in a controversy with Great Brit- | 2in on the subject of contraband. This | paper gives the view that Washington “will not permit itself to be used in POPE SENDS SPECIAL MESSAGE TO WILSON Cardinal Gibbons Delivers Cahle- gram of Hope Lor Peact in Europe Washington, Sept. 3.—Cardinal Gibbons came to Washington yester- day with a message of hope for peace in Eurove to Fresident Wilson from Pope Benedict. It was a cablegram praising the president's attitude and indicating a belief that the Uniteq States might be in a position to help in bringing the European war to an end. After reading the message the car- dinal remained for half an hour with the president, discussing the pog; bility of peace and the world situ: tion generally: He emerged smilix and walked over to the state depart. ment for a conference With Secrtary Lansing. talked peace with the president ang told him of his gratification over the | appeal and the success of the nego- tiations with Germany over subma- rine. warfare. He spoke cheerfully of the situation, saying the prospects for peace seemed to be brightening. The text of the pope's message was not made public, nor was there any for- mal comment on it from the White House. Unofficially, however, it was said that the president was pleased with the message and with the interview. It was understood that the ‘pope made no definite suggestion as to a peace movement, and that his message was purely a personal one to President Wilson and not address- ed to the heads of other neutral gov- ernments. May Mean Joint Action. The visitc of the cardinal created the deepest interest in official and diplomatic circles. It had been known since Tuesday that he was coming, but while the pope's cablegram reached him Monday, no inkling of it was heard in Washington until tc- day. Joint action for peace among the heads of several neutral nations and the pope was suggested as a possible | outcome of today's developments, but this idea received no official confir- mation. Up to the present the United States has acted entirely alone in the single offer it has made to be of service 1n bringing about peace. Aided Cause of Peace, Cardinal Gibbons declared that the settlement of the submarine issue between the United States and Ger- many had greatly aided the cause of peace and had placed the United State in a very advantageous posi- tion to be of service in bringing to an end the conflict abroad. He said he had informed the president that he believed this to be true ‘While the cardinal would not 8o 612 OS5l €The delicate dainty that lightens the heart is Ice Cream made as pure, rich and good as Ice Cream can be made.

(New London Day-) Several attempts have been made {to effect the complete abandonment by the New London naval station by It is fortunate that some of these attempts was complet- 1y successful—fortunate for the coun- try rather than for New London be- cause, in any other than a sentimen- tal aspect the importance of that es- tablishment to this city is not and never was very great. But the great naval station is, as Secretary Danlels has decided, an ex- ceptionally fine submarine base, It is doubted if thero is another on the coast possessing simillar natural ad- vantages, to say nothing of the equip-. ment already there.

The cardinal said th> plan in mind was along the general lines of recent public discussion of | the question in newspapers. Cardinal Well Pleased. Cardinal Giboons was accompanied , by Monsignor William T. Russell rec- tor of St. Patrick’c Catholic church here. After leaving cardinal, his greeted inquirers, and without being auestioned said that he had discuss- ed peace with the president. “Our talk was highly satisfactory and I am very much pleased with my reception from the president,” said | the cardiral. “We went over the en- | tire situation, but I cannot reveal the | ! details of our conversation at this, time. Probably more will be made ublic in the near future.’ Special Message From Pope. In answer to inquiries the cardinal <aid he had brought to the president a special message from the pope. He added that he wanted to talk with ; Secretary Lansing on peace and go 1over the same details he had taken | up_with President Wilson. The cardinal laid emphasis on his belief that the lessening of tension be- tween the United States and Ger- | many would have much to do with | the possibilities of restoring peace. It was indicated that the basis for his belief was a suggestion that it might be possible to get an agrec- | ment Dbetween Germany and Great | Britain for guaranteeing the freedom: !of the seas and in that way to start !a discussion of peace terms. The car- dinal indicated broadly that he be- lieved negotiations soon would be | under way to end the war. He ind:- jcated that. further developments might become known soon- Discusscd Mexican Question. After leaving the White House the cardinal dismissed the automobile ‘n which he had ridden to see the pres- ident and walked to the state depart- ment to see Secretary Lansing. After the visit of the cardinal it was an- nounced at the White House that President Wilson would make no comment on the conference at this time, Later it was revealed that the car- dinal Incldentally discussed the Mex- fcan question generally with Presl- dent Wilson and expressed the hope that peace would be restored there, After his conference with Secretary Lansing, the cardinal declared he had nothing to say further, After leaving the state department the car- dinal called on the papal delegate.

Later Cardinal Gibhons declarad that no messages similinr to the ons he dellvered (o the presldent from the pope had been sent to the other neu- tral powers, He mpald that he might the president the get permission from the pope to makae it public later, While the cardinal himself con- tinued to refuse to discuss the details of the message it was understood that it expressed the opinion that the United Btates now was in a position to be of great assistanee in restor- ing peace, Whether the sending of | peace face wreathed in smiles, | The ! when his mind is made up, as Jack- | the message was connected with the settlement of ihe submarine lnuol between the United States and Ger- many was the subject of much spec- ulation.
