While we compoaa It we are under preaaura of the moat cruel altuatlnn whlrh an American cltlien of Oarman sstraction may have to fare, that which alway appeared to ua not only aa direct calamity that could befall ua. but also aa moat helnoua crime that could b committed against rlvllliatlon haa apparently at leaat become a poee aibility a war between tha two countries dcareat and neareat to our hearte. On one aide there la no aentlment more natural and mora beautiful than the loving at tachment to tba country where our cradle tood.

May 14 (Special Telegram) -Theft of r and a watch from tha Iowa tmiveralty baae ball plarera, who wnr tiers May 11 for the Amu game. Is thought to ba solved In the arreJt of an Amea youth. The boy had stolen prop- j erty on him taken from Transportation t all and Kaep IeU snc-lety hotiaa. The j roblr paeaed up 11X0 in bllle belonxlnx to Coaili Kent of U'wi ahea ransacking j the gymnasium of the vlalting varsity I l.ker room when the tun was going oav j rules of falrnoaa, reason, jusUca and ho mantty which all modern opinion regards as imDoraiiva." i This waa taken by naval afflears varaod In International law and diplomatist to mean that not only during tha present war, but In future International confer ences to amend tba rules of marlUms warfare, tha Americiut government would bo found aligned against tha use of tha submarine against merchantmen. Another feature of tba nota which caused much comment among diplomatists was the statement In It replying to tho Oorman circular to neutrals which arrived hero on Tuesday and agrees to express regret and give reparation for any mistaken at tache on neutral vessels by Submarines. Tha communication points out that while "expression of regret and offers of repay ration tn case of destruction of neutral ships sunk by mistaka" may satisfy 'In ternational obligations If no loss of Ufa results," they cannot Justify or "excuse a practice tha natural and necessary af fect of which la to subject neutral na tions and neutral persona to new and InunsaauraMe risks." Ria-ht of Vlalt auid tsareh. "In another portion amphasls Is laid on tha Inability of submarines to exercise tha rights of rtalt and search at aoa because of practical difficulties snaking It tmposstbte for thorn to make prise of merchantaiea alnca a prise crew could not bo put aboard, for If taken, aa a prise, tha ship could not bo sunk without leaving tha neutral's vea- ewl erew to tha mercy of tha sea In Its small boats." It was this feature the arollcatlon of tha rules of naval prize law to tha cases j or neutral vessels carrying contraband of war onoountared by submarines which attracted attention when tho Oorman circular note to neutrals was flrat ex amined. Tba argument made in tha Amsrloan nota of today la designed to point out tho Inadmissibility of what had been regarded In some ouaitera aa eon cessions by Germany In tb treatment of neutral merchantman. The' citation In tha nota of "Tha . pltclt stipulation of tho treaty of 1ES, between the United Mates and Prus sia" waa regarded aa Important from a legal point of view. Under that treaty American ships are Btren tha riant tn unrestricted freedom of the aeas In tlmss or war and oven If carrying contraband. Including munitions nf war. tha ahlns or cargoes caa not be confiscated, but may ba detained and tha cargo 're qulstlonsd."
