HOPE OF ENDING WORK OF SUBMARINES REVIVED WASHINGTON, June 11.—Persons close to the German Embassy - take the view that the latest note of President Wilson to the German Gov- ernment so clears the situation that there is every prospect: that there will be a peaceful settlement of the controversy, It is sald that Germany has been ready to accept as true a statement by the United States that the Lusitania was not armed, President Wil son in the note cabled Wednesday declared the liner was not supplied with arms and that she was not a transport. The view in many quarters in Washington is that this statement will be accepted by Berlin and that the way to a peaceful settlement has been made. Germans who made an accurate forecast of the first Berlin note concerning the Lusitania are now forecasting the new one which von Jagow will send, They way the mew note will discuss at great length humaze warfare on land and sea, That it will waive further controversy as to the Lusitania being armed or unarmed and reiterate Germany’s willingness te make such reparation as can be made, * That it will assure the safety of Americans at sea, insofar as it Is arg to make such assurance. it It will declare passenger vessels shall not be attacked | wr Sinan Teoete Satehs kaon te te ot ee | That, most important of all, it will suggestion concerning the good offices of the United States _ | attempt to come to am understanding with the Government Great Britalp, by which the character and conditions of the upon the sea may be changed, ‘These Germans say that Berlin may be expected to say: “These things we do for America, but we are willing to extend the Principle to include our enemies, if the United States can bring about a return by the rules laid down by the declaration of London.” This, it 1s pointed out, means an end of submarine warfare againet commerce—more than the United States is asking in the present oe troversy.
