Attention la called to the amended "trading with the enemy" act. which authorize the King at hi discretion, to prohibit by proc lamation any British subject from trading with any corporation outside the British Dominion which doe busi ness with or ha associated wllh It an enemy of Great Britain. Meetings of directors of several of these corporations were held yesterday to discuss the situation and to decide upon some course of action. Officials of lha corporations gave it as their belief that no reply would be made until the question was laid before Sec retary of Slate Lansing and the aid of the State Department soughL The objection to furnishing; Great Britain the Information, according; to statements made by directors, lies chiefly In the fact that the knowledge thus gained by a trade-competing na tion could be used to benefit tirltlsn corporations to the serious handicap of America by turning; over to rivals the business secrets of American firms.

Feb. 3. Dispatches on the Lusitanla situation from Colo nel E. M. House, now on a special mis sion In Europe for President w neon. are believed to have been delivered to the President today on his special train. Colonel House discussed the situa tion with hl-ch German officials, in forming them of tha position of the nlted States and receiving; in turn first-hand Information of tneir view nolnL Details were not disclosed in such dispstches as have been received here, but they reported Colonel House found It unnecessary to remain In Ber lin as long; as he originally naa in tended. It Is said Colonel House probably discussed other subjects than the L.usi tanla caae with the German officials, but that the Lusitanla situation occu pied the major portion of his dispatch to the President. Rraaeaable Hope" Kntertalaed. Tha semi-official statement of the Forel-rn Office forwarded to this coun try that there was "reasonable hope that a communication which had been started to Count von Bernstorff would prove satisfactory to the United States is taken In official and diplomatic quarters to mean that Germany has not accepted the tentative form of pro posal exactly as it was submitted, ihe opinion and hope was expreseed by diplomats In a position to be familiar with the status of the negotiations that the cardinal points set forth In the ten tative form approved by Secretary Lansing remained. It was said there are certain words which the Berlin officials believe could not be included in the final settlement of the controversy because of concern for Herman public opinion. It was thought certain that this phase had been explained to Colonel House and that he In turn has conveyed the ex planation to President Wilson. Laaauaae Ilaa Been Reviaeal. It was said tonight that the language In the tentative form of proposal sub mitted to Secretary Lansing last week in regard to Germany's expressed hope that the United States do everything possible toward securing freedom of the seas has been revised considerably because it was considered that the words used might have conveyed the impression that Germany was maKinj that question a condition of settlement. This, it was explained, was in no wise the intention of the German govern ment. The latest communication to Count von Bernstorff had not, it was said at the Embassy, arrived it Washing ton tonight. It is expected tomorrow. Unless present plans fall through de lay In delivering the dispatch to the German Ambassador the tentative form of settlement as now sifggested by the German government should be In Sec retary Lansings hands before the President returns to Washington to morrow, or soon thereafter. The central committee guarantees these societies 60 per cent of their losses. 17 agencies for such financial relief have been opened in southern and eastern provinces. Asylums and schools for children have been opened wherever refugees have, congregated, likewise hospitals. Infirmaries and homes for aped and in firm. The committee has already dis bursed 8,000,000 roubles, of which the government supplied 1,500.000. No financial-assistance has been solicited from abroad and practicaly none has been received.
