I dared not take the car into town lest

I City Feels Peculiar Depression.
In the west columns of smoke were
rolling up. The traffic In the street
was about as usual, though there was
peculiar depression everywhere. After
snatching a few sandwiches we left the
hotel and drove to the end of the old
bridge. This was literally the eleventh
hour in Warsaw, yet there was less of
a crush on the -bridge in this moment
than there had been 10 days before
when the civil government had left.
While we were crossing the bridge four
bombs were dropped from aeroplanes.
Many of the Taubes were speeding
aflout in tne gray dome of the early
evening and nardiy a minute passed
that a high explosive dropped from

its report. A taube flew over the
bridge as we crossed and dropped a
bomb, which fortunately fell in Praga

were pouring shrapnel up into the eky.
I saw one German aeroplane skim out

Thus did the flyers make merry over
the city which within 43 hours was to
be theirs. Why did they do it? I have
never heard any adequate explanation.
As it began to grow dark we moved
eastward, and as the grays of twilight
began to fade I stood on the hill at
Verstpost, eight miles on the Moscow
road, and watched the quick zigzag
bursts of the German shrapnel now
breaking on the outskirts of the town.
In the road plodded the long line of
transports now mingled with Infantry.

never demoralized.

NEWS FROM BERLIN
HEIGHTENS TENSION
Washington Still Hopes Offi
. cial Dispatches Will Mod
ify the Situation.
TIME FOR ACTION NEAR
America Must Formulate Policy as
to Slnklns: of Merchantmen.
Within Nine Days, Unless
Delay Is Granted.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20. Tension is
increasing In the situation Detween
the. United States and the central
powers as a response Is awaited from
Berlin to the latest request of the
American Government for a dennlte
assurance regarding the conduct of
submarine warfare.
There were no new developments to
day, but, in view of intimations from
Teutonic departments and apparently
significant news dispatches, . officials
are awaiting word from Berlin with
unconcealed concern. It Is possible
that official indication of the attitude
of the Berlin Foreign Office may be
received tomorrow or Tuesday in con
fidential reports from Ambassador
Gerard. Officials still hope that the
official advices will not conform to the
ndlcation in the press dispatches that
the German government is unalterably
opposed to modifying its declared In
tention to sink all armed merchant
ships of the entente allies without
warning after February 29.
Speedy Decision Essential.
Count Von Bernstorff, the German
Ambassador, who transmitted the
views of the United States to his
government late Thursday night, prob
ably will have received a reply to his
dispatch before the middle oi tne weea.
As the position of the united States
was explained to the representative
of Austria. Baron Zwiedinek. only yes
terday, Vienna will hardly be heard
from for at least a week.
It Is realized in official Washington
that whatever policy the United States
decided to pursue will have to be for
mulated quickly. Only nine- days re
main before commanders of German
and Austrian submarines will begin to
put their new instructions Into effect
unless the central Powers decide to
postpone the order pending the out
come of the negotiations with the
United States.
Future action will be decided on
after official information concerning
the attitude of the central powers is
received at the State Department. .
Lansing Denies Report.
Secretary Lansing today denied re
ports that he contemplated calling high
Teutonic officials to the State Depart
ment to explain various recent news
paper dispatches from Washington. He
aid there was no change in his offi
cial or personal relations with Count
von Bernstorff or Count Zwiednek.
It has been known for some time that
Administration officials objected to
the fact that information regarding
diplomatic negotiations, about which
the State Department was silent,
reaches the public apparently through
iplomatic sources. It is said at the
State Department that unless diplo
mats stop divulging information the
department may take into considera
tion the question of having them with-
rawn, although so far such action Is
not actually contemplated.
