The circumstances that the Algon quin carried foodstuffs, which are contrabrand, and the fact that she recently transferred from British to American registry, which Germany may not recognize, are not taken to outweigh the fact that the ship was sunk without warning. The real fact is that while the de struction of such a ship in such a manner is very serious, the American government already has taken all the steps it can to meet sucha case unless it wishes to take the last step and declare war. The real issue will come when a submarine attacks an armed ship. A series of clashes probably would cause congress to declare war if Ger many 'had not already done so. Up to the present, in the absence of action by congress, all that could be done to meet such a case as the destruction of the Algonquin already has been done. It is generally ac cepted that the detruction of the Al gonquin is not an overt act. According to later advices from Plymouth, the German submarine op ened fire on the Algonquin from a distance of 4,000 yards, firing about 20 shells. These were not sufficient to sink the steamer, so she Aas boarded by men from the submarine who placed four bombs and the Al gonquin was then blown up.

The action of the United States in breaking relations was received with a claim by Chinese officials and press. Feeling agaffist Germany has run high, not only because scores of Chinese on the way to Europe have been killed by submarines, but from the kaiser's, order in the Boxer up rising to make the word of Germany dreaded in China and seizure of the whole of the province of Shen Tung for the murder of two missionaires. Seizure of the German ships may be taken by Germany as an act of war, as in the case of Portugal. China's action may be followed by seizure of German property in China, which is considerable in that country. i
