GERMAN REPLY TO
AMERICAN NOTE
GIVES ASSURANCE OF SAFETY TO
AMERICAN SHIPS.
Legitimate Travel Will Be Protected,
But Submarine Warfare Will
Not Be Abandoned.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Tho German reply to tho 'American
note regnrdlng tho sinking of tho
Lusltnnla has been delivered to Am
bassador Gerard, nnd embodies in its
text the following.
"Berlin, July 8. The undersigned
has tho honor to mnko tho following
reply to his excolleney, Ambassador
Gerard, to tho noto of the 10th ultimo
in ro tho Impairment of American in
terests by tho German suhmnrlno wnr.
Tho Imperial German envemmnnt
learned with satisfaction from tho note
how earnestly the government of tho
United States. Is concerned In seeing
tho principles of humnnlty realized
In tho present war. Also this appeal
finds ready echo In Germany and the
imperial government is quite willing
to permit its statements nnd decision
In tho pro3ont case to be governed
by the principle of humanity, Just ns
It has done nlwnys.
"Tho Imperial German government
welcomed with gratitude when tho
American government in tho noto of
Mny 15 itself recalled that Germany
had always permitted itself to be
governed by tho principles of progress
nnd humanity In dealing with tho law
of maritime war. Since the time when
Frederick the Great negotiated with
John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and
Thomas Jefferson tho treaty of friend
ship nnd commerce of September 9,
1783, betwon Prussia nnd tho republic
of the West, German and American
statesmen havo in fact always stood
togeftier In the Btrugglo for the free
dom of the seas and for tho protection
of peaceable trade. In tho Interna
tional proceedings that -nave been sluco
conducted for tho regulation of tho
laws of maritime warfare, Germany
nnd America have Jointly ndvocatea
progressive principles, especially with
regard to tho protection of tho Inter
ests of neutrals.
"With all its efforts in principle to
protect neutral life and property from
damago ns much as posslblo, tho( Ger
man government recognized unreserv
edly in its memorandum of February
4 that the interests of neutrals might
suffer from the submarine warfare.
However, tho American government
will also understand and appreciate
that In the fight for existence which
has'been forced upon Germany by Its
adversaries nnd announced by them It
Ib tho sacred duty of the Imperial gov
ernment to do all within Its power to
protect and save the lives of Gorman
subjects. If tho Imperial government
wero derelict In this, Its duties, it
would bo guilty before God and his
tory of tho violation of thoso princi
ples of highest humanity which nro
tho foundation of every national ex
istence. "Tho case of the Lusltnnla shows
with horrlblo clenrness to what Jeop
ardizing of humnn lives tho manner
of conducting war employed by our
adversaries leads. In the most direct
contradiction of International law all
distinction between merchantmen and
war vessels havo been obliterated by
tho order to British merchantmen to
nrm themselves and to ram sub
marines, nnd the promise of rewards
therefore, and neutrals who use mer
chantmen ns travelers thereby have
been exposed In an increasing degree
to tho dangors of war.
"Germany merely followed Eng
land's example when she declarod part
of the high sea an area of war. Con
sequently accidents suffered by neu
trals on enemy ships in this area of
war can not well bo judged differently
from ncldents to which neutrals are
at all times exposed at tho seat' of
nr on land when they betake them
selves Into dangerous localities in spite
of previous, warnings
"In order to furnish ndequate fnclll-

It can assume that It can In this man

government Is unablo to ndmlt thnt

"In ordr to exclude nny unfore
seen dangers to Amerlcnn passenger
steamers made possible In view of
tho conduct of maritime war by Ger
many's adversaries, Germnn subma
rines will bo Instructed to permit tho
froe and safe passage of such passen
ger steamers when made recognizable
