Washington, July 12. Formal study of the official text of Germany's reply to the American note, on submarine warfare as it affects neutral rights strengthens the conviction of high of ficials that a most critical point In the relations between the two coun tries has been reached. Not only do they feel the United States must re fuse to accept the German proposals for the future conduct of American citizens on the high seas, but the fail nre of Germany to disavow the sink ing of the Lusitania, with the loss of more than 100 Americans, in their Tiew has brought on a crisis, the out come of which it is difficult at present clearly to foresee. That there will be no action by the United States for at least another week was indicated. Several days will be required to measure fully the consequences and responsibilities which will be incurred by the Anier lean government in framing a policy to meet the situation firmly. In the view of many officials. should German submarine command ers continue In practice to respect American rights, discussion could con tinue. U. S. Demands and German Replies. America demanded that tie princi ples of humanity be obserd. Ger many declared the first principle of humanity is self preservation. Ameripa placed responsibility for sinking the Lusitania and drowning neutrals on Germany. Germany dis avowed responsibility, placing it on Great Britain. America refused to admit the influ ence of special circumstances on the main issue the loss of innocent lives. Germany declared its women and chil dren are noncombatants and the con veying of munitions to the allies' threatened their bread winners lives America declared the Lusitania was unarmed. Germany said the British order to merchantmen to arm and to ram submarines applied to the Lusi tania. America insisted on Americans right to safety at sea. Germany de clined to admit that they can thu serve to insure the safety of the allies' ships. America maintained that the IaisI tania should not have been sunk until those on board had been cared for Germany said they would have been saved but for the explosion of the mu nitions the ship carried. America demanded precautions to safeguard American sea travelers Germany said they could have It on neutral ships. America, in subsance, asked cessa tion of submarine warfare. Germany declared it its only effective means of reprisal against the allies.

MAKE PROGRESS Compel the Cislodgment of Certain Elements of Trenches to the North of Arras Bring Down Teuton Avi ator Near Altkirsch. WAR SUMMARY The reportii from the eastern theater ef the war are meager in detail, and except for the fact that the Austro German advance, which last week was moving swiftly, has received a check, little is known of the happen ings either in Poland or Clicia.

Minor attacks, both by infantry and artillery, have occurred in Belgium and France, but there have been no happenings of Import. ice In that zone. Paris, July 12.

The Germans were also driven out by an immediate counter attack. "In the region to the north of Arras our troops compelled the dislodg ment of the enemy of certain elements of trenches where he had been able to maintain himself along a line which we originally took on July 8. "To the north of the station of Fouches an enemy counter attack de livered during the night was repulsed. Upon other sections of the front par ticularly violent cannonades are re ported in the region of Nieuport, ?n the section of the Aisne as well as in Lorraine, in the forest of Le Pretre and near the Moncel bridge. "One of o lr aviators sent a German aviator to earth in the r. e 5 gh boyhood of Altkirsch. He fell within s!ght of our lines." Ship Zeppelins For Attack on Rorre. Rome, July 12.
