England May Send
Wool to America to
Have It Combed
(Correspondence of the Associated rrea.)
IXNDON. July S. Tho wool situation
at Bradford Ii an Interesting one from
American standpoint 1-abor for comb
ing wool there haa been di-leled to such
an extent that the wool men have not
'only raised the question of the d.slrahll.
1'y of Importing tops from America, but
alao the Idea of shipping wool to Amer
ica to be combed there and sent back
.er. The suggestion Is also inado that
the difficulties might be met by bring
trig men ba-k from the front to work
(he combing machines.
All tbs tops required by the English
trade could be brought from Australia,
t ut the latter supply seems to be going
to Japan and aa the difference tn time
rf transit Is so great, the desirability of
treating with America Is apparent.
Heaps of wool are available, but few
combs to work It with, leaves the price
at a very high level.
A Bradford paper reports that the
Hoard of Trade aa signified Its Inten
tion of allowing 11,000.000 pounds of
tootch Mack faced out of tha new clip
to be exported to the I'nlted "tales, but
no confirmation could be obtained from
the Board of Trade or the war office
on the subject.
The fifth series of colonial wool sales
commencing June St, with VXl.oiw bales
available representing a value of about
ft.iOO.OOO sterdng. will probably be pro.
longed until July 11. Owing to the cha
otic conditions at ths warehouaea and on
the railways, selling brokers have agreed
to restrict dally offerings to too) bales,
that betnt. tne quantity which cau ba
conveniently handled.
Very little wool haa changed hands
since the last auction, but the market
expects a small advance In the price of
merino wool of good combing quality,
and about unrhand rate for croasbreds
s th government Is not giving out fur
ther orders for khaki at present.

WASHINGTON. July Count
von Demstorff. Ocrman ambassador,
will present to Secretary Lansing to
morrow the view that Germny'g
reply to the American note on sub
marine warfare was Intended to pave
the way for negotiations on the part
of the United States with Oreat Bri
tain as well as Germany to adjust
KUAHtlong that have arisen over con
traband and submarines as affecting
the rights of neutrals.
The German ambaaaaftor for several
days has been snxlous to see Secretary
Lanalng, but tha latter expressed a
preference not to dlacuea the Oerman
reply until he had examined It carefully.
Today Mr. Lanalng met the ambassador
at a club and set tomorrow as the date
for the conference.

Count voa Uernstortt la confident that
hla government emphasised In the last
note Its wllllngneai to work "hand-ln-hsnd"
with tha American government for
the eatarliahment of the freedom-of-t he
sea principle with ths express purpose
of entering Into negotiations now on ths
entlro question of maritime warfare, He
sent ths suggestion through Dr. Anton
fyer-Qsrhsrd that ths note should con
tain such an Intimation. Having followed
his suggestion ths ambassador la sure his
government will accept a tender of good
offices for ths mediation of the dispute.
This would Involve an acceptance by
Great Itrltaln of the service of the United
Btates as mediator to bring about the
termination of the British order-ln-cqun-ell.
aa well as Germany's submartns at
tacks upon merchantmen. -
Official ' of the American government
In tbs last few days have heard the re
ports concerning possible mediation of the
questions, but slwsys have Indicated that
negotiation along such llnea could ba
begun only if there wens assurance that
In tha meantime Oerman submsrlne
commanders would be guided by th" rrln
Ctplee for w hich the United State I con
tendingthat Americana on belligerent
hips which are unarmed and do not re
sist cspturs be not endangered. In of
ficial Oerman quartera here, however.
emphasis Is placed on tho fact that Ger
many In the laat month has not torpedoed
even enemy ships without warning and
that this practice very probably will be
continued.
In support of this confidence, Oerman
officials drew attention today to a state
ment given out by the Overseas Kws
sgency, an official agency. In Berlin
yeaterday. They declared that the state
ment muet have had the aanctlon of the
Oerman government. It recited the num
ber of HrltUh Ruaaian. French and Bel
gtan ship sunk during June and added
this comment:
'The loss of human life waa remark
ably small, the submarines using every
precaution and giving ample warning and
time for crcwe to leave their ships, if
no resistance were attempted."
Officials hers who 'read the statement
admitted that If this practice were con
tlnued the principles for which the United
Btates asked assursnce In Us note of June
t would be complied with to a large ex
tent The treatment which the American gov
ernment will give to the Lusltanla case
In Its next note Is causing much concern
even tn Oerman quarters. It Is not be
lieved the Oerman ambassador will dis
cuss this phase with Secretary Lauislng
tomorrow, but he 1 said to believe that
his government would not be opposed to
furtuer negotiations over the sinking of
sing before him, I'resldent Wilson today
began to outline definitely the position
he believes the United States .must as
sume ss a result of the last note from
Germany on submarine warfare, but just
how drsstlo thl position would be could
not be learned.
The president nearly haa finished his
preliminary study of the German situa
tion snd soon will be ready for the con
ference with ffecretary Lanalng and mem
bers of his cabinet which will be begun
next week. It waa said tonight that he
would be in Washington In time for the
regular cabinet meeting Tuesday.
It could not be learned here tonight
whether ths president had sent Mr.
Lansing any Instructions regarding his
scheduled Interview tomorrow with Count
von Bernstorff, the German ambassador.
Wll Not Comment.
Mr. Wilson refused to comment on ths
reported receipt by the American govern
ment of a note from Austria-Hungary
protesting against large exports of muni
tions of war to the allies, but the Impres
sion waa gained that he had been In
formed of the note.
The president worked on ths German
