To morrow it will he dispatched, and it is v 1X, '? expected to he made public soon after. No essential changes were made In the communication as formulated Xdu day hy the president and approved by the cabinet yesterday. The principal |>oints in the note are substantially as follows;, 1. The Hnited States government calls attention to the various Incidents In the war zone proclaimed hy Ger many around the Hrltlsh Isles, the sinking of the Hrltlsh liner Fulliba with the loss of Leon <\ Thresher, an American ; the attack by German air men on the American steamer Citohlntc the torjiedolng without warning of the American st/mmer GullighU uud liiuilly the torpedoing without '> wa n. tijg of the Lusitania with its loss of more than 1,00(1 lives of non:eombatauts, among them more than 1<H) Americans. ?J. These acts are declared to lie Indefensible under international law. The United- States ivolnts out that It never admitted Germany's right to do them, and warned the imperial gov ernment that it would la> held to a "strict accountability" for attack on American ? vessels or lives.

Expressions of regret may com ply with the legal precedents, but they are valueless unless accompanied by a cessation . of the practices endanger ing !i\es of non-combatants. 5. The- right of neutrals to travel to any point on the seas on neutral or bellgerent merchantmen is asserted. Waq^ ? For Sale ? Rents CAN YOU DANCE the Modern Dances?
