WITH SECY. LANSING

Word From Berlin May Determine Future Policy of TJ. S. Toward Germany?

& BULLETIN. NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—Count Von 1 Bernrflorff, the German ambassador, delivered to Secretary Lansing today a note from the German government in A a a it is understood, affords a negotiable 1 basis for the settlement of the question.

The ambassador was closeted with Secretary Lansing for only a few minutes, leaving with him the note, the contents of which was not disclosed. Both the secretary and the ambassa'dor decided that nothing would be announced.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—Secretary of Stat® Lansing: stopped here today while enroute to Washington from his vacation, to confer with Count Von Bernstorff, the German ambassador, relative to the German submarine operations and particularly the case of the Arabic.

It was the- first conference between the representatives of the two governments for two weeks, during which time the German ambassador had been given an opprtunity to communicate bp his foreign office the evidence gath,0re4 by the United States tending to 'prove conclusively that the Arabic was torpedoed without warning and was not engaged in a hostile act, as

Germany claims. The loss of American lives on board the Arabic brought the issue between the United States and Germany to a climax and upon word that the German ambassador was to communicate to Secretary Lansing today depends the next step in the policy of the United States.

Before the German ambassador ''talked with Mr. Lansing on the last occasion the American government was virtually ready to sever diplomatic relations. Assurances since then that Germany would give careful examination to the American evidence 'in the Arabic case and if it was found conclusive would probably arrange for 'an amicable settlement, which has come through press dispatches from

Berlin, but officially no word has passed between the two governments dur-

!^7*g,-the

last two weeks to indicate what

Germany's opinion of the evidence is.

He says he is sure it will be a good thing for me financially and he is personally glad that the shares went to some one that they like and would enjoy being associated with in business as well as socially," continued Dick, "and he adds this significant sentence: 'Perhaps it may mean a closer connection with the business later on.'"

Says President Led Cabinet in Prayer

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 2.—How President Wilson went down on his knees and led his cabinet in prayer at a recent meeting was told here by Bishop AVilliam F. Anderson, of Cincinnati, at a session, of the Indiana Methodist Episcopal conference. A senator told the bishop of the incident he said. "When the president arrived at the cabinet meeting," said Bishop Anderson. "His face wore a solemn look. It was evident that serious affairs of the nation were on his mind. He said to the cabinet members, 'I don't know whether you men belive in prayer or not. I do. Let us pray and ask the help of God.' "And right there the president of the United States fell upon his knees and the members of the cabinet did the same and the president offered a prayer to Gcd."

2.—Underwriters

NEW YORK, Oct. of the $500,000,000 Anglo-French bond issue, soon to be offered the public, were of the opinion today that, the entire amount would be subscribed to within a few days. The list will be closed in all probability early week, possibly Monday.

The sixty banks, trust companies and financial institutions which comprise the underwriting syndicate in New York City were, cheered by the support given them from Jewish clients, a source from Which they had not expected subscriptions to such an extent as have been realized during the three days that have elapsed since the details of the underwriting^ were published. The definite announcement by a member of the Anglo-French commission that Russia would not be a participant in the funds derived is believed to have entered, to a large extent, into the decision of Jews to subscribe.

1 tie conclusion that if we could do a little for you now, it would help more than to have all your vast inheritance come at once after we are gone." The old man chuckled softly to himself. "So we have decided to buy you a lot in Fairport. That will make it possible for you to build a home and pay for it on the mtallment plan, enjoying it all the while you are paying for it." "They must have heard about the landlord's asking us to move," thought Dick. •'Father!" exclaimed Nell. "It certainly is like you to think of such a thing," began Dick after a moment's pause, "but you mustn't do it. You have done tco much already. It isn't as if you were rich. You have worked hard for everything you have and now you are old and must take it easy and will need all your little savings. We are ypunjs and can earn our way and get along without luxuries until v,*e can afford them." "We are not likely to scrape the bottom of the kettle yet a while and we shall enjoy seeing you in your own home, and besides I think you will learn to be more economical if you have a big thing like that to pay for. A horse going up hill with a big load will put his head down and dig right in. That's what we hope this will make you do, both of you," said Mother Morton, coming into the room. "There is a fine well shaded lot just beyond the doctor's house that we have been looking at and if that suits you, we will buy it, and you can get the foundation in this fall."

Nell had risen to help clear the table, but instead of removing the platter she put her arms around the old man's neck and buried her face in his shoulder. He patted her cheek as she whispered, "dear father, how good you are to us."

On the way out with the platter she met Mother Morton with a tray she stopped and put up her mouth to be kissed. "The love that prompted your gift is more precious than the gift itself," she said. "We will never forget this Thanksgiving day." "I see now why you were willing I should present the lovely old clock I found up in the attic. We will plan a fine place for it in the new house," said Nell when Mother Morton returned to the kitchen.
