XHV WAR RCIES PROPOSED
BY LAXM-1'tt TO BEL
l.ltiKHENTS. 1. A non-combatant has the
right to traverye the high eeas In
a merchant ship entitled to fly a
belligerent flag- and rely upon
the rules of international law
and the principles of humanity if
the vessel is approached by a
belligerent war vessel.
2. A merchant vessel of any
nationality should not be subject
to attack until the belligerent
warship has warned her to stop.
::. Any belligerent-owned mer
chant vessel should promptly
obey any order from a belliger
ent warship to stop.
4. No such merchant vessel
t-hould be fired on unless she
tries to flee or to resist by force
and even in such case any attack
upon her by the warship must
stop as soon as the flight or re
sistance ceases.
i. Only in case It should be im
possible for military reasons for
the warship to supply a prize
crew or to convoy the merchant
ship into port will she be justi
fied in sinking such merchant
man, and in that case passengers
and crew must be removed to a
place of safety.
Mr. Lansing also proposes that
merchant vessels be deprived of
the right to carry arms.
WASHINGTOX. Jan. 28. Secetary
Lansing admitted today that he had
submitted to the belligerent powers a
note of suggestion that the rules of
sea warfare be modified, in the interest
of innocent comoaiants and in tne name
of humanity. Several specific recom
mendations are made. recognizing,
among other things, the changed con
ditions resulting from the advent of
the submarine and suggesting that mer
chant ships be not permitted to carry
arms if the nations agree to the other
conditions for protection of such ves
sels and their passengers and crews.
Secretary Lansing said the n6te was
purely in the interest of humanity and
did not bind the United States to any
new principles if it were not accepted.
Mutual Protection Desired.
Mr. Lansing says in the note that
while it Is realized that the appalling
loss of lives of non-combatants result
ing from destruction of merchant ves
sels without warning is violative of the
principles of humanity, still the United
states does not feel that a belligerent
should be deprived of the right to use
submarines in view of the usefulness
which they have developed. It Is, there
fore, suggested that non-combatants'
right to travel on the high seas be rec
ognized, that no merchant vessel be
subject to attack without warning, that
vessels so warned stop promptly, that
none be fired on unless she flees or
resists, and that only in case of dire
necessity shall a merchant vessel be
destroyed. The Department recognizes
the disadvantage to which submarines
are put because of structural weak
ness and discusses in that connection
the armament of merchant vessels for
defensive purposes. The note continues,
in substance:
"There can now be no reason for the
maintenance of even small-caliber guns
on merchant ships unless it is designed
to make them superior to submarines
and thereby deprive that class of war
ships of their undoubted right with
safety to warn and search such mer
chantmen. In reality, therefore, such
armament of a merchant vessel now
might be regarded as offensive arma
ment. "If submarines should be required to
stop and search merchant vessels be
fore attacking them, and to remove the
passengers and crews to places of safe
ty, it is not fair that the submarines
should be compelled to expose them
selves to destruction at the hands of
the merchantmen.
"Therefore by a general agreement
among the belligerents, submarines
should be required to adhere strictly
to the present provisions of interna
tional law to stop and search merchant
chips to ascertain their belligerent char
acter and to remove the passengers
and crews to safety before sinking
them.
"On the other hand, merchant vessels
should not be permitted to carry any
armament at all.
"There Is grave doubt of the legal
right to carry armament on merchant
ships, and it is submitted that all na
tions should be animated by a desire
to save the lives of Innocent people and
therefore should not insist upon the
exercise of any supposed technical
right.
Condltloaal Coaseat Asked For.
"Is your government willing to make
such declaration condition on a similar
declaration by its enemies?
"The United States Government has
been very much Impressed with the
arguments that have been advanced in
certain quarters tha any merchant ves
sel which carries guns in any position
capable of use against warships has
forfeited her non-combatant character
and may be regarded as an auxiliary
cruiser, and is seriously considering
the announcement of a purpose to treat
such vessels on that basis, because of
the changed conditions in maritime
warfare, resulting from the introduc
tion of the submarine in its defenseless
character."

ing the Intentions of the officers, all
of whom were in plain clothes, out a la
played badges of authority, they left
without delay.
The only man behind the bar at the
time was Mr. Schultx. but the regular
bartender was arrested later.

Constable Weinberger grasped his arm
and prevented it.
Water in Sink Bottled.
The water in the sink was poured
into three quart bottles, and it was
freely predicted from the odor that
analysis would show alcohoL
With the raiders were Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Charles Hindman and
Special Agent Walter F. Oeren from
the District Attorney's office.
Enlivened loganberry Juice, ginger
ale with a punch and straight whisky
were the favorite sellers, declare the
officers. They were disappointed at
tho small quantity of liquor found in
the raid. There were no barrels or
even full pint bottles. The loot in
cluded three pint flasks bearing an
odor of whisky and having traces of
liquor in the bottom that will be ana
lyzed. There was a two-quart bottle
in which there was a pint of something,
strongly suspected to be gin. There
was a full quart bottle of ginger alo.
which smelled more strongly of alco
hol than most prohibition ginger ale,
and a quart bottle of the same stuff,
one-quarter full. There were other
miscellaneous bottles that were sus
pected, but this was the principal part
of the hauL
Evidence Declared Ample.
The officers, while disappointed at
the result of the raid itself, are con
fident that they have ample evidence.
The presence of the most trifling
amount of alcoholic liquor behind the
bar was evidence enough, they say, in
addition to which they say the pur
chased whisky and drinks will leave
no court in doubt.
The hearing of Schultz on the charge
of maintaining a nuisance will be held
in the District Court a't an early date
next week. .
"What do you know about the Per
kins bar?" commented Deputy District
Attorney Arthur Murphy, when he
heard of the raid. "Why, when the dry
law first went into effect Perkins men
were among the first to ask us for ad
vice as to what could and whatcould
not be sold. They even mentioned that
Perkins bar was worked in blue on
the white tiling floor and promised
to remove the word 'bar' if it would
be a violation of the law."
Mr. Schultz said last night that
he did not know his bartender had been
arrested or was charged with any
crime, and also that he did not know
bis name.
Asked if he had been served with
any papers himself, Mr. Schultz queried.
"What papers?
Charging you with maintaining a
nuisance?"
'Why, yes, I was served with some
papers, but I don't know what for,"
was the reply.
Mr. Swetland, manager or the Per
kins Hotel, announced last night that
the temperance bar was not operated
as a part of the hotel, the bar premises
being leased to Mr. scnuitz.

NEW DRIVE IS FORECAST
RUSSIANS EXPECT GERMAN AT
TACK IV NORTH.
Prisoners in Bnkowlna Tell of Exten
sive Preparations by Teutons
to Hold Ground' There.
PETROGRAD, via London, Jan. 28.
Early renewal of military activity
along the northern end of the Russian
front in the Riga and Dvinsk districts
is forecast by Russian military critics.
Their expectation is based in part on
the unusual activity of German air
craft in reconnoitering the Russian
lines.
The activity leads lo the belief that
the Germans may be preparing an of
fensive in the north for the purpose of
countering the Russian attack in Buko
wina. Along the Stripa River the artillery
fire of the Teutons is increasing daily.
KIEV, via London, Jan. 28. German
prisoners captured in battle in Buko
wina assert that extensive preparations
are being made by the Austrians and
Germans to prevent a further Russian
advance on that section of the front
It is said some of the chief railway
lines of Austria and Germany have
been closed to passenger traffic on ac
count of the movement of large bodies
of troops and great quantities of sup
plies to Bukowina.
Prisoners say that as soon as guns
are installed the number of troops is
reduced to the minimum, the men with
drawn being sent back on the return
ing munitions trains.
