WILSON NOTE TO
KAISER DELAYED;
REASON NOTTOLD
Communication Not Cabled, Though
it is Known President Vir
tually Had Com
pleted It.
MYSTERY IN POSTPONEMENT
Belief Exists in Some Quarters Inac
tion Due to Desire to Give
Germany Time.
OFFICIALS DENY THIS IS SO
WASHINGTON, June 6. The
note which President Wilson, with
the approval of his cabinet, had pre
pared to be sent to Germany Insist
ing on an adherence to the rules of
international law in the conduct of
maritime warfare, was not cabled yes
terday. -Word camo from the White
House in the forenoon that it had
been virtually finished, but the doc
ument was not given to the legal
officers of the State department to
day as had been expected.
The reason for the delay In t!ie dis
patch of the note was not revealed. Pres
ident Wilson played golf durtn the
morning and went motoring after
luncheon with members or nis rmnny,
returning to the White House aftrr sun
down. Secretary Aryan went driving In
the afternoon. Counsellor Robert Lan
sing went to the baso hall game.
Won't nr When. '
Officials declined to say when the note
would be cabled or what Its status was:
The fact thnt the president practically
finished it led to the belief that Secretary
Pryan would study it tonight and tomor
row ond that It would be given to Coun
sellor I.anring and otner officials of the
east of Lake City. ltnn.. according to
. State department Monday for revision of
legal detull. .

fore Monday night it would hardly teach
Ambassador Gerard before .Wednesday
fo: presentation to the German foreign
of flc;, ns about forty-eight hours Is al
lowed by officials now for transmission
of messages via Ixmdon and Copenhagen
to Berlin.
In .:mc quarters the delay In sending
the note was thought to bo due to a de
sire to give Myer Qerhardt, personal en
voy of Count von Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, now en route to Berlin on a
Danish vessel, an opportunity to reach
Germany about ' the time the Imperial
government would be " considering the
American rejoinder. ' Officials 'declined,
however, to admit that this was a factor
In the situation.
.Vote from Britain.
Sir Cecil Spring-Rice, the British am
bassador here, has transmitted a note
from the British government solemnly

APPLAUSE GREETS
BISHOP BRISTOL
Sermon Interrupted Several Times
by Applause His Health is
Now Restored.
TALKS AT FIRST METHODIST
Bishop Frank M. Bristol preached
a strong home mission sermon at the
First Methodist church Sunday
morning to a congregation much
larger than usual. His presence in
the pulpit, after a long and very seri
ous Illness, from which he seemt to
have entirely recovered, called forth
numerous beautiful floral gifts, and
a vigorous outburst of welcoming
applause greeted the bishop when he
was Introduced by the pastor, Rev.
Titus Lowe.
During the sermon the normal dignity
and quiet of the church was broken sev
eral times by applause or laughter, the
demonstrative response .testifying to the
bishop's restored vigor of presence and
delivery, and to his well known ability
as an orator and humorist as well aa a
preacher.
A large thank offering toward the
Woman's Home Missionary society was
collected at the close of the sen-ice. The
beautiful flowers placed around the pul
pit in honor of the bishop were sent to
sick people.
Tells of Poor Widow.
Preliminary to his sermon the dis
tinguished divine told the scriptural
story of the widow's mites, and the story
about the woman who annointed Jesus
with the costly contents of an alabaster
box. His theme was based on Christ's re
mark, -She hath done what she could.
Lauding Christian womanhood and the
Influence and efforts of all women for
good, the bishop continued:
"The religion of Jesus is the only re
ligion that believes In womanhood, and
the Christian religion Is the only one In
which woman really believes. She may
adhere to some other, because of love
for her husband or because of fear, but
Christianity Is the only religion In which
she honestly believes.
