Ambassador von Bernstorff; was . so sure of her de struction he inserted an advertise ment in the New York Times May 1, 1915, in effect warning Americans not to sail on her. . , The German naval staff, it would appear, had an exact date set for this great tragedy of the sea to occur, but owing to the fact that the sailing of the vessel was delayed, she did not reach the point where the submarines lay in wait for her until two days later than had been calculated. This was the first blow in a war of frightfulness that was intended to strike terror into the heart of the world and especially to warn America of the consequences of war.

Buenos Aires, June 22 The Lloyd Brazilian Steamship company has es .ablished another new line of boats be tv.een Buenos Aires and Belem, Bra zil, with callings at Montevideo, Rio Grande, Santos, Bahia,-Maceio, Recife (Pernambuco) and Ceara. This new service was inaugurated by the steamship Rio Janeiro, which sailed from this port recently with passengers, mail and cargo. In a short time thereafter other boats were placed on this run. It is believed that the new enterprise has been well planned and that its success is assured. The greater part of the ships which once carried the traffic between these ports belonged to Euro pean companies and have sfnCe the ar been placed on trans-Atlantic routes. The Lloyd Brazilian company al ready has established several lines between Buenos Aires, Montevideo and Chile. This company instead of liqui dating its boats at the high prices brought about by the war, has bought all the available tonnage in South American waters for the purpose of enlarging its formerly small fleet. Since the war began Argentina has been selling off her boats, until today is practically without the sem blance of a merchant marine. Brazil, on the other . hand, has been buying boats as fast as Argentina sold "them aQd now possesses several regular toes of steamers with sailings " be tween the principal Argentine and Brazilian ports. The sailing of an Argentine boat from Buenos Aires has become an 'un common sight. The few ships that re-' frain under the Argentine flag are des ned at an early date to be sold to foreign countries. . v. ' Brazilian companies have taken ad vantage of Argentine's inclination to alize immediate, large profits from 'he sale of her boats, and has acquired ElliPs of everv class.
