Complete :r formation concerning the destruc tion of the liner Arabic still was a vralted In official quarters here today and the admlnlatratlon's attitude be cause of the lack of such data was undecided. An official of the stale departemnt said no dispatches bear :ng on the Arabic case had been re delved today. Tt 1h assumed t'/at Ambassador I a *e and the American consul at Qu enstown are making the Inves tigation directed by this government nnd will file their reports at the ? c vilest moment possible. Meanwhile the administration is at rtcd to be maintaining an open mind and no decision will be reached as to i he course of this government ? tlie new crisis with Germany un til the President and Secretary Lan sing have every fact in connection with the torpedoing of the Arabic. Official advices from London con cerning the tragedy hav0 been un- ? usually slow in arriving and devoid of the full details desired. The lat est London cable merely reported definitely that two American* were missing but was silent as to the facta surrounding the actual destruction ?f the liner. The paucity of dispatches con cerning the circumstances surround ing the sinking of the Arabic, to gether with "certain Inconsistencies" in the incomplete accounts at hand, places government officials here to day In an attitude of nervous ox nertancy and Indecision. It has been fully determined by President Wi'son and Secretary Lansing that there will Jje no pre cipitate action. The fullest infor mation must be at Wild heforo the attitude of this government is de termined and nunounced. The posbI T ."'tics range from proof that Ger^ I..?- y's act was "deliberately un f i : : -Ily" to development that there s ;i.. justification for the torpedoing of t'! Arabic. At this moment It la not seen how (iermnny can plead justification, but f Is en Id In official circles that the administration ' is maintaining an 'open mind" and will give the Ara-* !)!c case the most thorough Investi gation.
