BERLIN (via Sayville wireless)
Oect. 12 The budget committee of
the Relchstag, unable to reach an
Agreement on the submarine quest on
has voted 24 to ¢ against a dlscus.
gion of the subject in open session
This was stated In a written report
read In the Reichstag today by Ma
jor Ernst Bassermann, leader of the
National Liberals
The decision of the budget com
mittee not to dlscuss the submarine
fssue In the open Relchstag sessions
is significant, since it averts the xen
eral debate which had been expected
to make Chancellor von Hethmann
Hollweg the storm center. This
much-heralded debate had bheen |
jooked for by the Chancellor's oppo i
nents to bring about a change of

Raid Now Taken as |
Object Lesson Here|
BY JOMN EDWIN NEVIN, !
Staft Correspondent of International|
News Service. {
WABHINGTON, Oct. 12.—-Accept
ing the belles of the naval expertis |
that the German submarines [7-53 and
U-81 have departed for their home
base, Secretary lLansing and hiws ad
visers today began compliing all pos
sible data regarding thelr operations |
on this ride of the Atlantic Until |
this Is done no further action is to be
taken
The State Department now is com
pletely convinced that Sunday's rald
off Nantucket was intended for an
“object lesson” It is agreed by all
officlals here that German craft rig- |
Jdly observed all of the requirements
of International law, But ofMeclals
fear that the success of this raid will
lead to others on A& much larger scale
with possible complications, and this |
is what this Government most desires |
to avold. |
That & suggestion is to be conveyed |
to Germany that this Government |
hopes that submarine operations shall !
be limited to the other wside of the |
ocean is eonsidersd certain, But It s
unlikely that this suggestion will be |
made in the form of a formal note’
#t present. HBecretary Lansing nnd‘
his advisers withheld all information
regarding the note to Great Britain
asking that her cruisers be with
drawn from American ports for |
months, and it Is entirely possiblu ]
that similar action will be taken i |
the German case, i

smbansies. There has been no pro- |
test fied ather than the “casual men- |
tlon” of the presence of the pubma

British Ambassador, last Baturday,
when he was at the State Depart
ment. OMcials at the embassy re
fuse to discuss the situation other
than to say that they are walting In
siruetions from thelr home govern
ments.
State Department officials point
put that German submarine opera
tlons were at points more than 50
miles off the const. Because of this |
the United States will not concern|
Muelf with them. The ohief interest |
now. it is stated, will be contered in
what may happen in the future And
it is to get all of the facts possible
properly compliled that the Staie De
partment now must devote itself.
The neutrality board, of which
‘l-mel Brown Heott, of the Carnegle |
ce Foundation, is chairman, wnll
po-operate with the State Department
in determining all of the facts,

that any new Qerman -uhmnrlv ‘m!-

{ EWPORT, R. I, .ot 12_--§
N Germany plans to sweep the z
seas with a flotilla of 300 )
submarines. Such was the state.
} ment today of Mre. Noah Thomp
son, formerly Fraulein Wilthelmina
Schell, quoting Captain Hans
Rose, of the German wbmnrim§
U-53, who called at her home |
while he was visiting heve Octo- §
ber 7.
Mrs. Thompson teld tocday the
substance of the conversation she
had with Captain Rose. She says
he told her that the letter he |
gmnlled to Count von Bcrnltorfi,e
besides informing him of his ar- s
rival in Newport, gave the infor
mation of Germany's plan to gain
control of the seas with subma
rines.
“By the Ist of January,” Mrs.
Thompson said Captain Rose
stated, “it is Germany's plan to
sweep the seas clear of enemy
ships by submarine warfare, This
plan will be voted for by the
Reichstag and carried out to the
letter, no matter what happens or
what s said.”
Mrs, Thompson has five brothers
in the German army,
sage which he has picked up or re
celved In regular channels, it is im
possible to find an operator who will
admit receiving the submarine wire
less warning Monday night., The
United States revenue cutter Tampa,
stationed at Charleston, is under
stood to be on the lookout for the
German submarine.

Adriatic Sails With

NEW YORK, Oct. 12—In deflance
of possible lurking submarines, the
White Star Hner Adriatic, Queen car
rier of munitions, salled for England
today carrying 18,000 tons of war
supplies,
Careful plans had been made for
the Atlantic to dash through the dan
ger zone. It is believed taht she will
be met off the coast by a convoy of
British warships and escorted far out
to sea. The Adriatie carried 240 pas
sengers, forty of them (irst class and
the balance second and third class.
The Munson liner Munamar was
held up today as she was approaching
this port by a United States destroy
er and compelled to give a full ac
count of herself. Later she was al
lowed to proceed.

an officer in the United States Cav
alry, regulars, who was on special
: iuty at Camp Harris, was elected.
! Jmmediately a protest was flled
| with Governor Harris, as command
crein-ehief of Georgia troops, by the
aree majors of the regiment—W, J.
{ Preston, 1. T. Catron and W. H.
. Leahy. All had been candidates for
| the leutenant colonelcy, the next
| “step up” for & major. Major Ca
[tron, it waa sald, had been a candi
' Jate for the coloneley of the regiment
xm year or more previous, being de
".’euled by Orville H. Hall, present
| colonel,
; The majors’ protest, it was sald,
I\‘hurx«d that Colonel Hall had “med

olection and had coerced several offi
'vers into voting for Captain Beck,
iwhu ,had never been connected with
; Ihe Georgla guard or any other mili
jtm. but who was considered an able
oMcer and a gentleman of the high
est type. Brigadier General Walter
Harris, a son of Governor Harrls,
held up this report, it was said at the
time, through fear that it might
cause a court-martial and the affair
might delay the regiment's leaving
for the border.
When the oom:la!nt. reached Gov
ernor Harirs, he deferred action for a
time, but, after a conference with J.
Ferris Cann, of Savannah, judge ad
vocate general of the brigade, he is
sued last week a commission creat
ing Captain Beck lieutenant colonel.
Major Catron paid a visit to Gov
ernor Harris on October 2 and dis
cusased the situation with him. After
their couference, Major Catron said
to a reporter:
“l have confidence enough in lhor-l
gia people to believe they will see
justice done in this case, 1 don't be
lleve they will stand for an injustice.
1 am confident right will prevail.”
Major Catron, in private life, is an

the next six months.
That is the dictum put up to par

of Parliament is to find more men for

It is belleved, members of Parlia

necessary and this without extending

they said it would be necessary to
take steps to stimulate recruiting in
