MARINA MAKES Several Questions Will Have to Be Settled In Connect ion With Loss. DID SHE CARRY GUNS AND WAS WARNED Germany is Expected to Cladm Right to Attack Armed Merchantman. (By United Press) -Washington, Nov. 2. Secretary Lansing's statements indicated that (he entire armed merchantmen con troversy between the United States and Germany will be reopened if it is proved the British steamer Mariana carried guns when submarined. Mer chantmen's right to carry guns is still an open question. This will be the principal issue If negotiations devel op over the death of six Americans aboard the Mariana. The Mariana maintained that the Merchantmen had the right to carry guns. Germany never admitted the right. The question first arose over the Lusitania. America Insisted that merchantmen ' may carry six inch guns. The question then lapsed. Lansing expects Germany, to claim that armed merchantmen were not in cluded in submarine promises.
