Fear of a Renewal of Subma
' \
rine Warfare by Germany.
(By Interrationa! News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.—Confi
dential advices reccived in Washing
ton coincident with Ambassador Ger
ard’s departure for this country give
assurance that there is no basis for
the report that the German Govern
ment is contemplating a renewal of |
submarine warfare in violation of Lxe‘
pledges given in the Sussex case. ‘
Some of the more responsible offi
cials of the State Department who
have been studying Chancellor von |
Bethmann-Holweg's speech have de
cided that the construction . placed
upon it by certain other officials was
unjustified and incorrect. The sen
tence in the Chancellor's speech which
seemed to bear out the theory that
Germany was about to enter upon a
new and relentless sybmarine cami
paign, was:
“A German statesman who would
hesitate to use against this enemy
every avallable instrument of battle
that would shorten this war should
be hanged.”
U-Boat War Impossible.
This sentence was explained today
a= follows:
“The Chancellor means that Ger
many must do evervthing possible to
win. But Germany realizes that a
renewal of submarine operations
against ships carryving passengers
would bring on war with the United
States. Therefore, submarine war
fare on the old lines does not come‘
within the casegory of things possi-‘
ble. The submarine, for use against
passenger lines, is not an ‘avallable |
weapon.’ " |
A studied effort is being made in
England to embroil the United States
in trouble with Germany over the
submarine question. The latést in
stance of this is a statement by Lord
Robert Cezil, the British War Trade
Minister, in which he charges that
Germany s directly violating her
gl:dges to the United States. It can
authoritatively stated that no case
in which these pledges have been
shown to be violated has been report
ed to this Government since the
pledgss were given.
The twice cabled report that Am
bassador Gerard is returning to this
country to discuss the renewed threat
of relentless submarine war is spe
cifically denied at the State Depart
ment,.
~ Gerard Would Stay.
It 'Was pointed out today that .if
the United States feared a submarine
crisis the Ambassador would not be
leaving his post. The fact that he
is coming here is the very best evi
dence that the relations of Germany
and the United States are now on a
better basis than they have been in
any recent time.
The Examiner is informed that Mr.
Gerard has been trying for ten
menths to get away for a rest, which
he m badly.
hile he is coming here merely for
a vacation, he will certainly discuss
the sitwation abroad and the possi
bllity of bringing about peace.
Although England and France pro
fess not to want to discuss peace,
‘ there are conditions possible under
which they might be forced to con
slder it. A neutral diplomat put the
Situatfon thus to The Examiner cor-
Tespondent:
/ “Suppose the United States should
say to England:
*‘Unless you cease your fllegal in
terference with our mails and com
merce we shall place an embargo on
the shipments of supplies.’ England
- Would have t 7 yield to the demands
of the United States. If an embargo
were put into effect she would be
Yeady to discuss terms of peace
Wwithin three weeks.”

President’s Kin Attacked
Head of Truth Society Charges President’s
Family With Being Southern
Sympathizers.
(By International News Service.)
CHICAGO, Sept. 30.—Jeremiah
A. O'Leary, president of the Ameri
can Truth Society, sent a telegram
to President Wilson at Shadow Lawn
tonight making a scorching reply to
the President’s attack upon him in a
telegram made public yesterday.
Mr. O'Leary was on his way to Chi
cago from New York, his home, when
he read President Wilson's public tel
egram saying he would bhe deeply
mortified to have Mr. O'Leary, or
anybody !ike him, vote for him. Mr.
O’Leary prepared the following reply,
which he made public tonight at the
Hotel Sherman, after the original had
‘been dispatched to the President:
“Chicago, Sept. 30.
“Hon. Woodrow Wilson,
“Shadow Lawn, Long Branch, N. J.
“In your telegram of yesterday you
have evaded every question that 1
raised. In acting thus, you have fol-l
lowed your usual method of carrying
on a controversy with an opponent.‘
Now you seek, by an indirect charge
of disloyalty—a charge which you
dared not directly make—to escape
the questions which you can not an
swer, o
“T challenge comparison, both by‘
heredity and environment, of my life
and antecedents with yours, While |
three of my uncles were dying in de
fense of the Union those of your kin
who dared to fight were ntruggling;
to destroy it. |
“In mv brief contact with public
affairs, I have sought to follow the
advice and example of Washington, of
Jefferson, of Lincoln and of the other
great Presidents, to the end that all
Americans might stand upon one
plane of equality and fraternity. It
has femained for you to break new
ground as a President and to seek to
divide your countrymen into racial
and religious groups.
Insult to Americans.
“The word ‘hyphenate’ was never
heard in American public life until
you coined it to insult your hosts,
real Americans of Irish blood, at the
dedication of the Commodore Barry
monument in Washington.
“Now, you speak of dislovalty!
What do vou mean—disloyality to
America or disloyalty to England? If
the first, T throw the charge back in
your teeth: if the second, T call your
attention to the historical fact of the
Revolution, which the fathers thought
had dellvered us. for all time, from
England. 1 stand, as the men of my

stand against the present aggressions
of that power from which we have
wrung our freedom in the Revolution
and which has ever since, by force
and guile, attempted to take it from

“I charge again that your foreign
policies, your Mexican entanglements,
your action on the Panama Canal,
ycur failure to sustain American
rights, your truckling to England,
your approval of war loans and of the
munitions traffic are all subversive of
the interests of America, ‘
“You have made your record, and

advantage of your exalted position to

labuse great masses of your country
men, who adhere to the principles
'upon which this great country has al
ways rested, but I warn you that you
are being weighed in the balance, and
that adherence to your policies will
carry you down to deserved defeat onl
election day.
“JEREMIAH A. O'LEARY,
“President American Truth Society.”
Mr. O'Leary appeared greatly
wrought up over the President’s tele
gram and newspaper comment, and“
threatened libel suits against two aft- .
ernoon papers in Chicago, and pre-‘
dicted war with _EE!_'l_glarld. % 1

{ “When these suits come to trial,” he
said, “we will be at grips with Great

more to do than it will care to at

Mr. O'Leary is a lawyver in NOW|
York and has practiced there for fif
teenn years. When a young reporter
Istarted to question him about his pro-l
fessional career, Mr. O'Leary suspect
led a veiled attack and proceeded to
tell the reporter what he knew about
the English affiliations of the paper
he represented.

Standing Question To Be Raised
at Convention To Be Held
in St. Louis.
i
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 30.—When the
forty-fourth triennial convention of
the Protestant Episcopal Church as
semles at/ St. Louis, October 11, the
stage will be set for one of the sharp
st controversies in the religious his
tory of this country.
The question of the attitude of the
Episcopal Church in America to di
vorced persons will be definitely de
termined, and, if elaborate plans do
not miscarry, the present policy of
the church will be completely re
versed, and, hereafter, it will be im
possible for any divorced person, dur
ing the life of the divorced partner,
to be married by an Episcopal clergy
man.
Such action has been recommended
by an Episcopal commission of five
bishops, five clergymen and five lay
men, representing every section of
the country and all shades of opinion
as to church government. Their de
liberations have been proceeding for
a year and their radical recommenda
tion, barring divorced persons from
the right of marriage within the
church, will, admittedly, raise a con
troversial storm.
Are Ready to Fight.
The advocates of the proposed re
form are ready for it. They include
the bulk of the clergv. who feel that
the church must. at this time, regis
ter its protest with all possible em
phasis against the national evil of
divorce.
The flght against the recommend
ed change will be made, largely, by
the influential laity, led by several
eminent clergymen.
The fires of this controversy have
been smoldering since the defeat of
practically the same recommenda
tion in the coenvention of 1901 in San
Francisco, end again, three years
later, at the Boston. convention. In
these futile struggles to array the

led by the late Rev. Dr. Willlam R.
Huntington, who, for a quartér of a
century. was rector of Grace Church
in New York City. Dr. Huntington
had behind him a numerically small,
but distinguished. group of clergy
men and a strong lay following,
headed by the late J. Pierpont Mor
gan, who was a delegate to the con
vention, Bishop Greer, then rector
of St. Bartholomew’s Church, stood
with Dr. Huntington throughout the
fight.
Defeated Once.
They were beaten in the flrsg vote
of the House of Bishops by a sub
stantial majority, and agaln in the
House of Deputies, but on the third
and final test they scored a victory in
the diocesan vote, and the law of the
church was preserved as it stands to
day—sanctioning marriage for the in
nocent party in a divorce for adul
tery.
But the Clerical party, better known
as the ‘“rigorists,” did not abandon
their campaign. Through the years
they have,been working steadiiy to
mold church sentiment in readiness
for another determined effort to un
compromisingly bar divorced persons
from marriage by canon law.
Advocates of the proposed ecanon
amendment will contend that the
growing evil of divorce calls for this
drastic action by the church: that it
is impossible to accurately determine
who is the guilty and who the inno
cent party in the average divorce:
that the public good demands a pro
hibition of all such marriages to
which collusive and fraudulent di
vorce may have paved the way; that
Holy Writ defines and determines the
indissolubility of marriage and that
the clear duty of the church in this
national crisis of marriage laxity is to
adopt a canon that will rightly con
trol marriages within the c¢hurch and
powerfully influence public opinion in
the proper direction.
Some Arguments for Diverce.
Opponents of the radical change In
canon law, demanded by the “rigor
ists,” will fight with these arguments:
That Christ expressly taught that the
innocent party to a divorce for adul
tery was free to matrry again; that
the proposed legislation is a long step
toward the practice of the Roman
Catholic Church {in prohibiting dis
vorce for any cause; that it is an at
tempt by the churck to interfere in a
purely civil matter, and that the pro
posed action, if taken, will only de
feat its own object by driving people
from the church and increasing the
evils embodied in a disregard of the
marriage law. |
