"Fortunately these are matters concerning which the govern ment of the United States is in a position to give the Imperial German government official information. Of the facts alleged in your ex cellency's note, if true, the government of the United States would have been bound to take official cognizance in performing it's recog nized duty as a neutral power and in enforcing its national laws. lt was its duty to see to it that the Lusitania was not armed for offens ive action, that she was not serving as a transport, that she did not carry a cargo prohibited by the statutes of the United States, and that, if in fact she was a naval vessel of Great Britain, she should not receive clearance as a merchantman; and it performed that duty and enforced it's statutes with scrupulous vigilance through its regu larly constituted officials. It is able, therefore, to assure the Im perial' German government tj^^Jias been misinformed. If Hie Imperial German government should deem itself to be in possession of convincing evidence that the officials of the government of the United States did not perform their duties with thoroughness thc government of. the United States sincerely hopes that it will submit that evidence tor consideration. "Whatever may be the contentions of the Imperial German government regarding the carriage of contraband of war on board the Lusitania or regarding the explosion of that material by the] torpedo, it need only be said that in the view of this government these contentions are irrelevant to the question of the legality of the meth ods used by the German naval authorities in sinking the vessel. "But the sinking of passenger ships involves principles of hu manity which throw into the background any special circumstances of detail that may be thought to affect the cases, principles which lift it, as the Imperial German government will no doubt be quick to recognize and acknowledge, out of the class of ordinary subjects of diplomatic discussion or of international controversy. UNPARALLELED IN HISTORY. 'Whatever!.be*the-. other facts regarding the Lusitania, the prin cipal fact is that a great steamer, primarily and chiefly a conveyance for passengers, and carrying more than a thousand souls who had no part or lol in . the conduct ?of the war, was torpedoed and sunk withou} su much as a challenge or a warning, and that men, tornen and children were sent to their death in circumstances unparalleled in modern warfare. The fact that more than one hundred American citizens were among those who perished made it the duty of the gov ernment of the United States to speak of these things1 and once more with solemn emphasis, to call the attention of the Imperial German government to the grave responsibility which the government of the j United States conceives that it has incurred in this tragic occurrence, and to the indisputable principle upon which that responsibility rests. CONTENDING FOR HUMANITY. The government of the United States is contending for some thing much greater than mere rights of property or privileges of com merce. lt is contending for nothing less high and sacred thanttH? right of humanity, which every government honors itself in respect commander of the submarine arty, justification for so muches putting the lives of thoron-board theirship in jeopardy.
