(special CotTfrorKient of The Wtihinrtcn Henld. London, July IT. That the liner Lusi- tania was destroyed with a loss of more than 1,000 lives by two torpedoes fired by a German submarine without warning and not by an explosion of ammunition in her cargo is the chief feature of the ver- dict rendered today by Lord Mersey, who presided at the investigation into the sinking of the Cunarder on May T. The verdict places the blame thus: "The whole blame for the catastrophe rests solely upon those who plotted and committed the crime. ' Their Aim to Kill. In the verdict Lord Mersey emphasized these points: 1. The Lusitania was struck almost simultaneously by two torpedoes. 2. The liner was attacked not merely with a view to sinking her but also with the purpose of causing loss of life. 3. The Lusitania was unarmed She carried no concealed guns, no trained gunners and no trained troops. The ess-- had on board a number of cases of cartridges which were entered in her manifest, but had no other ammunition on boatd. 4 Capt. Turner failed to follow the admiralty's advice, although full instruc- tions had been elien him .".. If ("apt. Turner had fully heeded the advice of the admiralty the Lusitania might not hae been sunk. However, blame for the disaster is not attributed to Capt. Turner. Lifeboats Approved. K The Cunard line had not violated the laws of the Fnited States" in the case of the Lusitania, as charged by Germany. 7. The submarine which sank the Lusi- tania did not reveal its identity before the attack was made, as it carried no flag. S. Complaints of the survivors about the condition of the life boats on the liner were 9. "Reasonable and practical" meas- ures weie taken by those in charge of the ship after the attack was made. "The evidence shows that the Lusi- tania was an unarmed ship." sas Lord Mersey "The attack was made without warning and no opportunity was given the passengers to leave the ship The armed ship. a use by Mersey.

"In the opinion of the board of in- quiry, the Lusitania was torpedoed not alone with the intention of sinking her but also with the intention of causing loss of life by destroying passengers." Lord Mersey declined to discuss the evidence dealing with the admiralty's advice to Capt Turner, evidently fear- ing that it would he of use to Ger- many. He said, however, that the admiralty had devoted anxious care to the submarine peril and had issued advice to navigators generally. Continuing Lord Mersey says: Cnjitnlii llelil ninmelean. "The Lusitania was struck with two torpedoes, w hich hit her almost simul- taneously "Reasonable and practical measures were taken on hoard the liner after the attack to insure the safety of passengers. No loss of can be attributed to neglect on the part of the ship s master. Complaints of wit nessen ns In the lenWv ennrlltlnn rt Mlfhnnt! am " Boat Areommndntlon Ample. Lord Mersey stated that the Lusi- tania provided boat accommodations for 2,fi30 passengers, but the total number on board when the ship was destroyed was only 1,339. The total number of lives lost was 1.19S, of whom 7S5 were passengers, and 413 members of the crew. Of the passen- gers 124 were Americans and 35 wero Infants. Then Lord Mersey referred to the warning published in New York news- papers by the German Ambassador Just before the ship sailed. In the view of Lord Mersey this warning; far from excusing the crime, only aggravated it. as It showed that it was deliberate and In advance.

STREET sS-'- s Eift life planned baseless invention" VON JAGOW'S PEN SEEN IN NOTE OF AUSTRIA German Foreign Minister and Chancel- lor Drafted Communication. Ber- lin Dispatch Asserts. Berne. July 17. It is stated on the hest authority that the Austrian note to America was sent at German Instiga- tion, and was drafted by Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollwe- g and Foreign Minister von Jagow. One reason for thus using Austria as a pawn is that she did not, as did Germany, supply England with war material during the Boer war, and,, consequently, cannot immediately be ac- cused of objecting to America's doing precisely what Germany did herself. In Austrian official circles, not much tangi- ble results is expected, hut the note. nevertheless, is considered a clever move. Another reason for the intervention of Austria Is that Roumanla lately refused to allow the transportation of German war material to Turkey. It is learned also that It was only owing to strong pressure from Germany that Austria con sented to dispatch the note. London, Jul 17. The Pail Mall Ga zette, commenting on the Austrian note to the United States, says: "Little heed, we imagine, will be paid by the United States to the feeble note of the Austro-Hungari- government. The fun Is to be rounded off by the dispatch of a similar note by Turkey. It Is scarce- ly necessary to show that If there Is any rupture in relations, the United States will have to reckon with Germany's allies as well as herself."

TRIES MUTE BY PENCIL. Skctrhr Miovr Speechless Where He's to Go. Man Atlantic City, July 17. In disposing of the case of George Dealer, a deaf mute arraigned today on a charge of vagrancy. Recorder Gaskill made up for his deficiency In the sign language by bringing into play his ability as a sketch artist. Calling Dealer to the bar the recorder drew a rough sketch of the county jail at Mays Landing and beneath the grim caption, "ninety days." Dealer vigorously shook his head in the negative, and. taking the pencil.- - drew a sketch of the Albany avenue bridge, with a lone figure mak- ing his way towards the mainland. Then the recorder shook his head, and Dealer, seizing the pencil again, crossed out "ninety days" and wrote beneath It. "thirty days." In the laugh that followed the recorder scribbled, "sixty days." beneath the sketch of the Jail, and Dealer, apparently pleased, was led from the courtroom. OHIO PEELS FLOOD'S HAND.

Secretary Houston's opinion of the Forest Service Is favorable. In a letter to Chief Forester Graves he declared himself satisfied that the settlers in tc region of each of the national forests were getting valuable help In the form j of cheap pasturage for their stock, and a reliable water supply, as well as tim- ber at reasonable prices. He was aston- ished at the extent of the recreational use made by the public of these wild tracts, and at the smooth working of the vast administrative machinery of the service in Its actual contact with the settlers everywhere. The Secretary penetrated Into the for- est reserves on logging locomotives, au- tomobiles, horseback, and at times on foot, and talked with rangers and guards, homesteaders, lumberjacks, min ers and cattlemen. "I was gratified with the evidences of enthusiasm, loyalty and devotion to duty on the part of all representatives of the department with whom I came In contact," said he. "I was especially Im pressed with the Intelligent and sympa- thetic attitude between the Forest Serv- ice and the users of the forests and of all communities dependent upon them." In his travels the Secretary learned that upwards of a million persons an- nually camp, hunt, fish, maintain sum- mer homes or resorts or make trips through the national forests. In the Santa Fc In New Mexico many mountain cottages have been built; in the Coconino and Tusayan forests In Arizona, bordering the Grand Canyon, trails and roads must be constructed to admit the tourists and campers. The to- tal of such work thus far completed In all of the national forests Is 3,000 miles of road and Z1.000 miles of trail. The Angeles forest. In Southern Cali- fornia, has furnished the water to irri- gate a. great tract of desert, and to make it a marvel of agricultural wealth. The Sierra forest, at the summit of the mountain range, stores water for a pow- er project having a 114,000,000 plant. French Search for Women Aids. Paris. July 17. M.

By HERBERT TE3IPLE.(special CotTfrorKient of The Wtihinrtcn Henld.

London, July IT. That the liner Lusi-tania was destroyed with a loss of morethan 1,000 lives by two torpedoes fired bya German submarine without warningand not by an explosion of ammunition inher cargo is the chief feature of the ver-dict rendered today by Lord Mersey, whopresided at the investigation into thesinking of the Cunarder on May T.

The verdict places the blame thus:"The whole blame for the catastrophe

rests solely upon those who plotted andcommitted the crime. '

Their Aim to Kill.In the verdict Lord Mersey emphasized

these points:1. The Lusitania was struck almost

simultaneously by two torpedoes.2. The liner was attacked not merely

with a view to sinking her but also withthe purpose of causing loss of life.

3. The Lusitania was unarmed Shecarried no concealed guns, no trainedgunners and no trained troops. The ess--

had on board a number of cases ofcartridges which were entered in hermanifest, but had no other ammunitionon boatd.

4 Capt. Turner failed to follow theadmiralty's advice, although full instruc-tions had been elien him

.".. If ("apt. Turner had fully heeded theadvice of the admiralty the Lusitaniamight not hae been sunk. However,blame for the disaster is not attributedto Capt. Turner.

Lifeboats Approved.K The Cunard line had not violated

the laws of the Fnited States" in thecase of the Lusitania, as charged byGermany.

7. The submarine which sank the Lusi-tania did not reveal its identity beforethe attack was made, as it carried noflag.

S. Complaints of the survivors aboutthe condition of the life boats on theliner were

9. "Reasonable and practical" meas-ures weie taken by those in charge ofthe ship after the attack was made.

"The evidence shows that the Lusi-tania was an unarmed ship." sas LordMersey "The attack was made withoutwarning and no opportunity was giventhe passengers to leave the ship The

Hide Admiralty Secret."As the manifest showed the Lusi-

tania carried a number of cases of car-tridges. There was no secret about this.

"In the opinion of the board of in-quiry, the Lusitania was torpedoed notalone with the intention of sinking herbut also with the intention of causingloss of life by destroying passengers."

Lord Mersey declined to discuss theevidence dealing with the admiralty'sadvice to Capt Turner, evidently fear-ing that it would he of use to Ger-many. He said, however, that theadmiralty had devoted anxious careto the submarine peril and had issuedadvice to navigators generally.

Continuing Lord Mersey says:Cnjitnlii llelil ninmelean.

"The Lusitania was struck with twotorpedoes, w hich hit her almost simul-taneously

Lord Mersey stated that the Lusi-tania provided boat accommodationsfor 2,fi30 passengers, but the totalnumber on board when the ship wasdestroyed was only 1,339. The totalnumber of lives lost was 1.19S, ofwhom 7S5 were passengers, and 413members of the crew. Of the passen-gers 124 were Americans and 35 weroInfants.

Then Lord Mersey referred to thewarning published in New York news-papers by the German Ambassador Justbefore the ship sailed. In the view ofLord Mersey this warning; far fromexcusing the crime, only aggravatedit. as It showed that it was deliberateand In advance.

It had been said by the Germangovernment that the liner was carry-ing masked guns and was transport-ing Canadian troops, but this was

VON JAGOW'S PEN SEEN

IN NOTE OF AUSTRIA

German Foreign Minister and Chancel-

lor Drafted Communication. Ber-

lin Dispatch Asserts.

Berne. July 17. It is stated on the hestauthority that the Austrian note toAmerica was sent at German Instiga-

tion, and was drafted by Chancellor vonBethmann-Hollwe- g and Foreign Ministervon Jagow. One reason for thus usingAustria as a pawn is that she did not,as did Germany, supply England withwar material during the Boer war, and,,consequently, cannot immediately be ac-

cused of objecting to America's doingprecisely what Germany did herself. InAustrian official circles, not much tangi-ble results is expected, hut the note.nevertheless, is considered a clever move.

Another reason for the intervention ofAustria Is that Roumanla lately refusedto allow the transportation of Germanwar material to Turkey. It is learnedalso that It was only owing to strongpressure from Germany that Austria consented to dispatch the note.

London, Jul 17. The Pail Mall Gazette, commenting on the Austrian noteto the United States, says:

"Little heed, we imagine, will be paidby the United States to the feeble note ofthe Austro-Hungari- government. Thefun Is to be rounded off by the dispatchof a similar note by Turkey. It Is scarce-ly necessary to show that If there Is anyrupture in relations, the United Stateswill have to reckon with Germany's alliesas well as herself."

Atlantic City, July 17. In disposingof the case of George Dealer, a deafmute arraigned today on a charge ofvagrancy. Recorder Gaskill made upfor his deficiency In the sign languageby bringing into play his ability as asketch artist. Calling Dealer to the barthe recorder drew a rough sketch ofthe county jail at Mays Landing andbeneath the grim caption, "ninetydays." Dealer vigorously shook hishead in the negative, and. taking thepencil.- - drew a sketch of the Albanyavenue bridge, with a lone figure mak-ing his way towards the mainland.

Then the recorder shook his head,and Dealer, seizing the pencil again,crossed out "ninety days" and wrotebeneath It. "thirty days." In the laughthat followed the recorder scribbled,"sixty days." beneath the sketch of theJail, and Dealer, apparently pleased,was led from the courtroom.

More than 1,100 towns and cities in the1'nited States draw a good and unfailingwater supply from national forests, andsome of the biggest irrigation works Inthe world ha-- e their water supply con-served by the trees belonging to theUnited States Government, acording toSecretary of Agriculture Houston, whorecontly made a thirty-da- y tour of thesix great districts of the WestThe Forest Service is one of the bureausunder his charge, and the Secretarywent into the field to get first-han- d Im-

pressions of the manner in which thismuch-criticise- d branch of the govern-ment is conducted.

Secretary Houston's opinion of theForest Service Is favorable. In a letterto Chief Forester Graves he declaredhimself satisfied that the settlers in tcregion of each of the national forestswere getting valuable help In the form j

of cheap pasturage for their stock, anda reliable water supply, as well as tim-ber at reasonable prices. He was aston-ished at the extent of the recreationaluse made by the public of these wildtracts, and at the smooth working ofthe vast administrative machinery of theservice in Its actual contact with thesettlers everywhere.

The Secretary penetrated Into the for-est reserves on logging locomotives, au-tomobiles, horseback, and at times onfoot, and talked with rangers andguards, homesteaders, lumberjacks, miners and cattlemen.

"I was gratified with the evidences ofenthusiasm, loyalty and devotion toduty on the part of all representatives ofthe department with whom I came Incontact," said he. "I was especially Impressed with the Intelligent and sympa-thetic attitude between the Forest Serv-ice and the users of the forests and ofall communities dependent upon them."

In his travels the Secretary learnedthat upwards of a million persons an-nually camp, hunt, fish, maintain sum-mer homes or resorts or make tripsthrough the national forests. In theSanta Fc In New Mexico manymountain cottages have been built; inthe Coconino and Tusayan forests InArizona, bordering the Grand Canyon,trails and roads must be constructed toadmit the tourists and campers. The to-

tal of such work thus far completed Inall of the national forests Is 3,000 milesof road and Z1.000 miles of trail.

The Angeles forest. In Southern Cali-fornia, has furnished the water to irri-gate a. great tract of desert, and to makeit a marvel of agricultural wealth. TheSierra forest, at the summit of themountain range, stores water for a pow-er project having a 114,000,000 plant.
