Final Phrasing of Lusitania
Case Only Thing Unsettled.
RABID TALKS IN CONGRESS CURBED
ProHv(-l Munition Emlwrjto
m-notincil by Congressmen ,
Claims "Plunder" Would
'. lie Secure In Germany.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7. A state
ment Is expected any hour on the
Lusitania case, and it is reported
that the only difference is In phras
ing tho final agreement. Bernstorff
is slated to confer with Lansing to
morrow aiternoon. The cabinet and
congress both have considered tho
Persia incident. The cabinet listen
ed to the scant evidence Lansing
presented. The foreign committees
of both the house and the senate
dlBcussed the matter informally, and
mapped out a program of co-operation
with the president and Lansing.
It is being considered some method
of putting a quietus on Incendiary
speeches in both houses. Tho ad
ministration says its hands are tied
because of lack of evidence.
Committer Adjourn,.
Tho foreign committees of both
hotifios adjourned , this afternoon
without having reached any conclus-
! ion regarding :tho business -which
! came before them. This action was
! considered necessary on account of
tho lack 'of definite information
! which had been presented to the
j members.
I The members of the cabinet mani
fested impatience over the adjourn
ment and one mentioned "broken
promises" and declared the situation
called for a "complete round up of
the whole submarine situation". Ho
was unwilling, however, to commit
himself as to just how this could be
brought about. After a 15-minuto
conference
with Secretary of State
Lansing, Count von Bernstorff stat
ed that he would again confer with
the secretory tonight, when be be
lieved that the difficulties of the
Lusitania case' would be definitely
settled.
At the first meeting between
Lansing and von Bernstorff the lnt
tor presented Lansing with a writ
ten statement of Germany's attltudi
on tho question of submarine war
fare. The contents, howenver, wore
not made public.
Embargo Denounced in Congress.
Representative Gardner, of Massa
chusetts, denounced in the house of
representatives today, the proposed
embargo of war munitions consigned
to tho allies.
This act, Gardner declared would
"tie tho handB of the allies and
leave the plunder secure In the
hands of Germany, which would en
courage pillage, savagery and infi
delity. Representative Cooper replied to
the speech of Gardner and branded
it as being as violently "anti-German
as any which one would expect to
hear In the houso of commons in
England".
