"I'm some kind of hungry,'1 MoKeel is, said to htre told his host. Whereupon the party repaired to the smokehouse and got sausage for a meal . The meal was ever before Hill recollected the poison ed sausage. McKeel had got the link with the strychnine.

Read Thb Watchmak and Rkooed 6erman Press is D tided oa Note. Berlin, June 18 (Via London) The Berlin morning papers gen' orally comment more or less ex tendedly on the American note a Hug the lineB followed by the Saturday evening papers. . While there is a general , dispo sition to reoogniz- the friendly tone of the note and the fact that it makes further negotiations pos sible the press is divided, roughly into two parties, one disposed to enter into negoatipns looking to a compromise ou a new basis, while the other, by implication or expressly, rojeots any departure from the oource heretofore follow ed. Among the representatives of the latter idea is the Tagliohe Rundschau, whioh declares that while the note seeks a Way to a compromise, it seeks it along lines "which must result to the disad vantage of Germany." The Rundschau continues: "The note, therefore is calculated only to postpone a settlement of German-Amerioin relations and not bring it about.. The fmndly tine we acknowledge, but the dec aration that the sinking of the Lusitania was unparalleled in modeon warfare, seems opposed to the character of upright friend ship." The Rundschau defends . the sinking of the Lusitania and in conclusion declares: "And the watohword is 'the torpedoing will go on.' " The Kreui Zeitung emphasises Germany's right to prevent the shipment of ammunition to any enemy by every means. It also is unable to see what England cau off t in return for theabandon ment of the submarinef'campaign "since the plan to starve Germany has finally failed." ; Count Von Reventlow in the Tages Zeitung says : :- rresicums. wneea-pr ists in his refusal to reocguiie' the Ger man declaration of war zone, we are not able to oanoeive of an ar gument, or even a real under standiLg."
