GERMAN RELATIONS
AT CRITICAL POINT
Washington to Reject
Counter-Proposals.
CRISIS NOT TO BE FORGED
Discussion May Continue
Absence of Overt Acts.
in
OFFICIAL TEXT RECEIVED
Secretary Lansing to Go to Cornish
to Confer With President.
. Von Bernstorff Plans to
Make Informal Call.
WASHINGTON. July 11. Study of
the official text of Germany's reply to
the American note on submarine war
fare as It affects neutral rights
strengthens the conviction of hi eh of
ficials that a critical point In the
relations between the two countries
has been reached.
Not only do they feel that the
United States must refuse to accept the
German proposals for the future con
duct of American citizens on the high
teas, but the failure of Germany to
disavow the sinking of the Lusltania,
with the loss of more than 100 Ameri
cans. In their view has brought on a
crisis the outcome of which It is dif
ficult at present to foresee, clearly.
Action Delayed Several Days.
That there will be no action by the
United States for at least another week
was Indicated today. Several days will
be required to measure fully the con
sequences and responsibilities which
will be incurred by the American Gov
ernment In framing a policy to meet
the situation firmly.
Secretary Lansing will go to Cor
nish, N. M.. within a day or two to
confer with President Wilson. He said
tonight he would study the note care
fully and then communicate with, the
President.
Count von Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, intends to call on Secre
tary Lansing In the course of the week
to learn informally whether he can oe
of any service In the situation. No
engagements have been made for a
conference, but It probably will take
place on Tuesday or Wednesday.
Official Tt Arrive.
The official text of the German re
ply arrived today and was made pub
lic It differed in only a few unim
portant words from the Associated
Press copy which came from Berlin
Friday night. The official version was
delayed In transmission because of cod
ing. Comparison of the two texts re
vealed that they were cabled from the
same translation and that the As
sociated Press ropy In transmission
had omitted a few scattering words
which did not alter the sense of mean
ing. In all quarters here the reply was
the single topic of concern.
It was authoritatively indicated that
obviously there will be no surrender
of rights and no acceptance of German
proposal to guarantee immunity to
American ships under arrangements to
be agreed on by the naval authorities
of the two countries concerning the
marking of neutral ships.
Responsibility Placed on Germany.
There is no . intention, from indica
tions in official quarters, to force a
crisis, but in whatever policy is fol
lowed the American endeavor will be
to place full responsibility on Germany
for any subsequent rupture in friendly
relations.
Since the Lusltania was sunk on May
7 there has been no violation of the
principles for which the United States
has contended, unless the mishap to
the Nebraskan can be Included, and
In that case the Washington Govern
ment has not finally reached a conclu
sion as to whether a mine or torpedo
caused the explosion.
In the view of many officials, should
German submarine commanders, Ahere
fore, continue In practice to respect
American rights, discussion could con
tinue. There were intimations, how
ever, that In the next communication
the United States most likely would
impress on the German government the
serious consequences which will ensue
from any further Invasion of American
rights as proclaimed in the notes al
ready sent.
WILSON TO CONSULT CABINET
Next Step Believed Slapped Out In
General Way.
CORNISH, N. H., July 11. In the
quiet of Cornish Hills President Wilson
tince yesterday has been giving care
ful consideration to Germany's latest
note on submarine warfare. He is be
lieved to have mapped out in a gen
eral way the next step to be taken by
the United States, though there will
be no final decision until the situation
has been fully discussed with the Cab
inet.
The note was dispatched from Wash
ington as soon as It was decoded today
and the President will get into com
munication tomorrow with Secretary
Lansing and Mr. Tumulty regarding
tne advisability of the former's com
lng here. It may be that the Secre
tary of State will make the trip Tues
day or Wednesday and return with the
President.

naval wireless towers at Arlington to
the British steamships Howthhead and
Baron Napier, both loaded with cargoes

Cecil Spring-Rice the British Ambas

mitted suicide several days ago after
wounding Mr Morgan. It warned per
sons who had friends or relatives
aboard the British steamships Howth
head and Baron Napier to watch for
reports from those vessels.
The writer declared that It was
Muenter who warned passengers on

sailed from New York that it would
be dangerous to make the voyage on
her. It also is declared that Muenter
personally called on Charles Fohman
and urged him not to take passage on
the ship.

DE LORETTE, near Arras, France. July
10, via Parts. July 11 After battling
120 days for the hilly country between
Bethune and Arras, the French forces
are In possession of all the eminences
looking out upon the plain of Flanders.
Lille, Douai and Cambrat all are visible
from here.
Every position along the broad na

has been won except Souchez. and last
night another quarter-mile of trenches
in the Souches web was torn away.
The attack was made under parachute
rocket lights, the French burning
bluish white and the Germans greenish
white, covering the scene of the des
perate conflict with a ghastly glow.
Formidable Artillery tees.
The most desperate fighting has been
along the short 10-mile front from Arras
to Alx Noulette. which began March
with the taking of a few hundred yards
of trenches on the watershed of Notre
Dame de Lorette, where there are- the
ruins of an old Merovingian military
road. Every day since then some sec
tion of the German trenches have been
taken, lost or retaken.
Each side has been employing for
midable artillery, both of small and
heavy caliber, the French guns being
somewhat the more numerous and
served with unlimited quantities of
hlgh-exploslve shells.
Oeraaara Casualties Heavy.
A correspondent of the Associated
Press today went through five or six
miles of the trenches formerly held by
the Germans and reconstructed by the
French, who now have abandoned them
to move forward.
Upward of 100,000 Germans have
fallen or been captured In these
trenches, according to the French offi
cial count, since the second week of
March. The French losses, the corre
spondent was confidentially Informed,
while serious, have been much smaller
than those of the Germans. There are
thickets of little crosses made of twigs
tied together marking graves between
the trenches. Some of these graves
have been torn up by the shell fire.
Almost every square yard of this re

caused by exploding shells. Spots

(he additional strain which this has
placed on the German General von

circles of lh allies, the threatened
German offensive in the west, and
there la now a possibility that the al
lies will be the first to take the of-j
fenstve. In support of this It Is pointed
out that the attacks by the German
Crown Prince's army la Woevre. whlcn
the German press announced wss the
beginning of a j:encral move forward,
have ceased, and the fighting that Is
going- on all along the western front j
consists of artillery engagements and
a few Isolated attacks and counter
attacks by Infantry, which make little
or no difference In the positions ot Ihe
opposing; forces.
The British, according lo th French
report, have repulsed a German attack.
The German reports, however, allude
to this aa a British attack, and Berlin
says It was repulsed with considerable
Ions, The French and German reports
are a-enerally contradictory In respect
to what fighting- has taken place, but
from the trend of them it is evident
that neither side has attempted anything-
of a decisive nature, and It Is
believed that It may be weeks yet be
fore they do.
0 far as the Germans are concerned
military observers assert they are
bound to carry out their offensive
against tne Russians until there Is
soma decisive engagement, such as the
capture of Ihe Lublin railway, which.
It is asserted, would have been In their
hands before now if the Austrians ad

confirmed by the statement In the
Russian official report I . at reinforce
ments have reached Arch!uke Joseph

Mackensen aleio began an offensive
which, however, broke down under the
Russian fire.
While the military critics are still
undecided whether the Russians
make their stand on their present lines
