kind, especially the presence on
board of larpe quantities of high
explosive materials (word oanit
ed isissibly 'dissipated') this ex
pectation, In addition it may be
pointed out that if the Lusitania
had been spared thousands of
cases of munitions would have
been sent to Germany's enemies
and thereby thousands of Ger
man mothers and children rob
bed of breadwinners.
'In the spirit of friendship
wherewith the German nation
has been imbued toward the
Cnion and its inhabitants since
the earliest days of its existence
the imperial government will
aways be ready to do all it can
during the present war also to
prevent the jeopardizing of
lives of American citizens. The
imperial government,, .therefore
repeals the assurance that A
merican ships will not lie hin
dered in the prosecution of le
uiumate shipping and the lives
ni American citizens in neutral
vessels shall not be placed in
jeopardy.
'In order to exclude any un
forseen dangers of American
passenger steamers, made possi
ble in view of the conduct of
maritime war by Germany's ad
versaries, German submarines
will Ik instructed to. permit the
free and sife passa'.'V of such
passenger steamers when made
recognizable by sfiecial mark
ings and notified a reasonable
time in advance. The Imper
ial govern menU however, con
fidently hopes that these ves
sels have no contraband on
Isiard. let ails of arrangements
for the unhamere passage of
these vessels to be agreed on
by the naval authorities of both
sides .
' 'In order to furnish ade
quate facilities for travel across
the Atlantic for American cit
izens, the German government
submits for consideration a
jroosal to increase the nuin
her of available steamers by in
stalling in passenger service a
reasonable number of neutral
steamers under the American
flag, the exalct number to Imi
Ngreed upon under the same
ciqiditiou as the above men
tioned American steamers.
'The Imperial government
Isdieves tUat in this fnanner
adequate facilities for travel
across the Atlantic ocean can
It afforded American ritizens
There would, therefore. apjK'ar
to lie no compelling necessity
for American citizens to travel
1 Kurope in time of war on
ships carrying an enemy flag.
"In particular the Imperial
government is unable to admit
that American citizens can pro
tec) an enemy ship through the
mere fad of their presence on
board,.
"Germany merely followed
Fngland's example when she
declared part of the high sea
an area of war. Consequently,
accidents suffered by neutrals
on enemy ships in this area of
war canmrt well be jndgied dif
ferently from accidents wbich
neutraig . are at all times . ex
posed at the seat of war on
land when they betake them
selves within dangerous locali
ties in spite of previous warn
ings. "If, however, it should not
lie possible for the American
government t acquire an ade
quate number of neutral pas
senger steamers the Imperial
government is prepared to in
terpose no objections to the
placing under the American Hag
by the American government of
four enemy passenger steamers.
"The President of the Cnited
States has declared his readi
ness in a way deserving of
thanks, to communicate and
suggest pnposal to the govern
ment of Great Britain with
particular reference to the al
teration of mar time war. The
Imperial government will al
ways be glad to m ike use of
the good offers rf the President
and hopes that his efforts in
the present case, as well as in
the direction of the lofty ideal
of the freedom of the seas wll
'ead to an undertaking.
' 'The undersigned requests
the ambassador to bring the
above to the knowledge of the
American government and
avails himself of the opportuni
ty to renew to His Excellency
the assurance of his most dis
tinguished consideration.

Mrs. E. Spaight, 403 Parson

UI was troubled for a long time
by kidney disorders and a lame
and weak back'. I tried many
medicines, but got no relief un

Since taking them, my back
doesn't ache or pain like it used
to."
Oner three years later Mrs.
Speight said: 'I seldom have

disorder, but when I do, Doan's
Kidney Pills always relieve me."
