nizes without reservation the validity
of the principle insisted on In the sev

eminent has addressed to the luiiierlal
German Government with regard to its
announcement of a war xone and the

that the seas are free, that the char

Government regards itself an In large
degree exempt from the obligation to
observe these principles, even where
neutral vessels are concerned, by what
It believes the polity and practice of
the Government of Great Hi it a in to
V in the present war with regard to
neutral commerce. The Imperial Ger
uuan Government will readily under
stand that the Government of the'Uni
ted States cannot discuss the policy of
the Government of Groat Britain with
regard to neutral trade except with
thai Government itself, and that it
must regard the conduct of other bel
ligerent Government* ub irrelevant to
any discussion with the Imperial der
ma n Government of what this (Jovern

citizens by German naval command

to l>e, against any enemy who is be
lieved to have aqted in contravention

indefensible when they deprive neu

stance** The rlghtM ??f neutrals In
time of war are baaed uinin principle,
not U|H>n exttedlttuoy, and the prlnelpleH
ere Immutable, it la the duty and Ob*
ligation .oMxdllgerent* to tlnd a way
to adapt the new circumstances to
them.
The events of the past two month*
have clearly Indicated that It in ihjssI'
ble and practicable to conduct such
MUbmarliie o|>crattons as have charac
terized the activity of* the Imperial
Ueruan Navy within the so-called war
zone in substantial accord with the ac
cepted practices of regulated warfare.
The wl)o|e world has looked with In
terest and increasing satisfaction at
the demonstration of that i>ossiblllty by
German naval commamlers. It Is man
ifestly poss I ble, therefore, to lift the
whole practice' of submarine attack
above the criticism which It has arous
tul and iciuoye the chief cause of of
fcnsc.
In view of the admission *?f illegal
lty made by the Imperial < Jovernment
when li pleaded the right of retalia
tion i" defense of Its acts, and in view
of the manifest possibility of conform
ing to the established rules of naval
warfare, the Government of the United
States cannot believe that the imperial
German Government will longer re
frain from disavowing the wanton act
of its naval commander In sinking the
iMisltaula or from offering reparation
for the American lives lost, ho far an
reparation can be made for a needless
destruction of human Jlfe by an Ille
gal act.
The Government of the United
states while not Indifferent to the
friendly spirit In which It la made,
cannot accept the suggestion of the
Imperial German Government that cer
tain vessela be designated and agreed
upon which aliall bo free on the seas
now Illegally prescrll>od. "? The very
agreement would, by Implication, sub
ject other vessela to illegal uttack and
would be a curtailment and, therefore,
an abandonment of the principles for
whl?h this Government contends., and
?hlcli in timea of calmer counsels ev
ery Nation would concede aa of course.
The Government ; of the United
States and the Imperial German Gov
nment are contending for the same
great object, have long stood togeth
er tn urging the very principles upt.u
which the Government of the United
States now aolmenly insists. They are
lH?th intending for the freedom of
lie seas. The Government of the Uni
ted si at cs will continue to contend
for that freedom from whatever quar
ter violated, without compromise and
at any cost. It ihvitea the practical
co-operation of the imperial German
Government at this time when co-op- 1
eration may accomplish moat and this
great object, he most strikingly and
effectively achieved.
The Imperial German Government
expresses the hope that . thla object
may be in Home measure accomplished
even before the present war. ends. It
can be. The Govertametilof ftietJnited
States feels obliged to insist upon it,
by whomsover violated or ignored, in
the protection nof its own citteans, but
it lg also deeply interested in seeing
it made practicable between the bellig
erents themselves, and holds itself rea
dy at any time to act as the common
friend who may be privileged to sug
gest a way.
In the meantime the very value
which this Government sets upon the
long and unbroken friendship between
the people and Government of the
United States and the people and Gov
ernment of the German Nation impels
it to press very solemnly upon the Im
l>erlal German Government the neces
sity for "a scrupulous observance of
neutral rights in this critical matterr
Friendship itself prompts it to say to
the Imperial Government that repeti
tion by the commanders of German
naval vessels of acts in contravention
of those rights must be regarded by

there and he began a conversation with
mo ahoUt the war 'and chiefly at tout
the situation In England A lecture I
hud delivered the night before, or per
haps the sermon 1 1ih<1 preached the
Sunday before, may have had some
tblllg to do wjth Mr. Bryan's broach
ing the subject and his manner of dis
cussing It with me.
He Hold this country had to put an
end to the war Hltuation. f told him
that thin country had to do no such
tiling, that I had been In England six
months during the early stages of the
war and that I knew the situation
there.
"You can take It from me, I told
lilm, that, those Allies will never In
the world let uj? until the last man of
them Is dead or until the war party
In Europe is disarmed or brought to
! Its knee*.
"We had words. He flew Into a
rage and said I belonged to the blood
thirsty war party and that I had turn
ed my back on the Bible* and Chris
tianity. I told htm I had been too
long in the business to be talked to by
him in that manner.
Dr. Broughton said he would not
say that other clergymen in this coun-,
try were turning against Bryan, as he
could only stfeak of his own ease and
his own conversation with him?a con
versation which took place shortly be
fore Mr. Bryan resigned as secretary
of state. It was whispered by other
churchmen yesterday, however, u that
Bryan no longer possesses the friend
ship of many preachers with whom he
used to be intimate.

"I was in the very heart of the Eng

and I know some inside facts," said
Dr. Broughton. "Some of the leaders
in "the British Government were mem
bers of my church. From them I learn
ed something of the strain of those
months, in some respects worse than
the strafti of today, when the worst is
beginning to be realized.

"This war will not end until democ

do ko in England and France - the
United States would have to come to
the rescue of democracy.
"I look to see , great questions set
tled by this war. They include an end
to the Prussian Imperialism and to all
unchristian culture, such as the Ger
mans have put forth. This spirit must
end* and Americans do grave wrong
when they follow Bryan, if they do, In

"The German position is well" iltus
