PREMIER ASQUITH MOVES BIG LOAN (Cortinued from First Page.) present, and forecast and provide for the future,” he said. Oppose Domestic Strife. One thing Mr. Asquith opposed was “the sinister spirit of domestic strife.” ‘““We must all be ready to give and teke, and take and ' give,” he sald, ‘“and it must not be said that in the greatest moment of our history our arm was shorn of its strength by any failure on the part of either rulers or ruled to concentrate upon the un- exampled task the consistent counsels, undivided energies and unbreakable, indomitable will of the British people, “The situation is a testing one. A survey of the past year calls for satis- faction at the great efforts and sac- rifices made and for regret that some mistakes and miscalculations have been made. Today we realize more clearly, through the mists of sophistry and mendacity in which Berlin seeks 1o obscure and befoul the internation- al atmosphere, the sincerity of our own diplomacy and the passionate love of peace wherewith we sought to avert the catastrophe of a world-wide corflict. “It was the imperious call of duty which forced us to vindicate our na- tional honor and enlist our whole strength in the sacred cause of free- dom. T have no doubt either of the wisdom of our choice or of its ulti- mate triumph on the stricken field.” London, Sept. 15, 3:10 p.

ARABIC CASE 1S TISSUE OF LIES Say German Papers—Boat Sunk /7 By aMine Berlin, Sept. 15, via London, 12:40 p. m.—In the German government's explanation of the Hesperian case, Germania sees the way made clear for “President Wilson's ultimate position regarding the German note concern- ing justification for the sinking of the Arabic.”” The newspaper declares that the British press must give up its hopes of serious differences between Berlin and Washington. It praises President Wilson for having refused to be influenced by British reports of a new menace to German-American relations, which had just been guid- ed into a more peaceful channel and adds: ‘“The president's cool self-con- tainment is now justified. The Brit- ish tissue of lies is at last torn to pleces, and if anything remains of the entire question of responsibility for the misfortune it probably Wwill rest immediately, as we suspected, on one of Britain's excellent anchored mines."” Berlin, Sept. 15, by Wireless to Say- ville, N. Y.——The Overseas News Agency says it is virtually certain that the steamship Hesperian was not sunk by a German submarine and adds: “If, as is said by a London newspaper, one member of the Hesperian's crew pretends to have seen a German sub- marine, this means nothing as the ex- plosion occurred at about 8:46 p. m., when it was dark. Moreover, it has invariably been the case recently that when an explosion has been shown to have been to a mine several so-called eye-witnesses pretended to have seen the periscope of a submarine.” NEUTRAL DESTROYED Schooner Norfe of Christiania Blown Up By Submarine Off Norwegian Coast—Crew Safe.
