WACOM DEW ATTACK By SUBMARINE

Dragged Aboard U-Boat After Steamer Had Been Sunk and Set Adrift Upon Life Raft.

NEW YORK, May 6.—John D. Harrison, 24, of Chicago, who has just arrived in this city from Liverpool, tells a story of hav.'ng been pulled aboard a German submarine in the Bay of Biscay, after a ship on -which he was steward had been sunk then cast adrift on a life raft, to be picked up two hours later by a Scotch patroi boat and finally landed at Falmouth wearing a rough suit of clothes given to him by the German submarine commander. Through the United States consul at Cardiff, Wales, Harrison said, he filed a claim with the British admiralty for $250 for the loss of his

effects.

The ship sunk, according to Harrison, was the &argam Abbey, of English registry, laden with flour jBind other provisions to supply the British crulsers/ in the Atlantic fleet. ''Sends Message to British. "April* 10," he said, "while we were at the head of the feay of Biscay, the first mate* at. 3 o'clock in the morning sighted a submarine oft the starboard bow. "the German boat chased ys, ana began firing explosive shells, and o&e rendered us helpless. I jumped into the water, but not before the German commander had called out that he would pick me up. I had on a life belt and was supported by some planks. I «u in the water twenty minutes When the submarine came alongside and pulled me in. "t11® submarine commander said he was going to set me adrift on a life xaft He said I would soon be flicked Wp by one of the English patrol boats, fcr he said they had been hunting for ten tor a week, "but tell them for me,' lie added, that we are stiL' here.' "Well, thefy put me on the craft in dry German suit. Half of the crew Ware on top of the submarine watchteg me, and they waved their caps and all shouted in English, 'Good bye.' "•he submarine moved -oft and soon xjmbmerged, and that was the last I saw of her."

The otters, with the exception of the captain, who were aboard the Margam Abbey, Harrison said, escaped in life boats.

BOY'S PAR0I.E BEVOKED.

After he had been- granted clemency three times by Judge Pulliam in the •Juvenile 6curt, George Dooley, 14 years old, was again arraigned Thursday, and his' parol© from the "Plainfield, boys* school revoked. The boy was accused of stealing two auto tires At Clinton, Ind.

and of safeguarding their free exercise and enjoyment." All Notes Unsatisfactory.

On May 28, 1915, Germany replied with a note which covered a wide range of argument and was in. every respect unsatisfactory. It alleged that the Lusitania had masked guns aboard and that sle in effect was a British auxiliary cruiser. The note met none of the contentions of the United States so far as the Lusitania and Falaba sinkings were concerned, although a supplementary note later did acknowledge that Germany was wrong in the attacks on the Cushing and the Gulflight, expressed regret for those .two cases and promised to pay damages.

While the American reply to the note was being framed, dissension in the cabinet resulted in resignation of Secretary Bryan, who contended for a policy of warning Americans off belligerent ships. He resigned because he thought he could not sign the next note to Germany, which he feared would lead the United States into war.

Meanwhile several sensational incidents cropped up in connection with the negotiations, chief of which was the sending of a message to the Berlin foreign office by Dr. Dumba, the Austrian ambassador later recalled at the request of President Wilson, which was represented as stating substantially that Mr. Bryan had intimated to the ambassador that the vigorous tone' of the American notes should not be regarded In Berlin as too warlike.

Secretary Lansing took office as Mr. Bryan's successor and in his reply to the German note took issue with every contention Germany had set up in the Falaba and Lusitania cases, and denied flatly, the contention that the Lusitania was armed or was to be treated as other than a peaceful.merchant ship.

To that note, Germany did not reply until July 8 a!nid the German rejoinder was preponderately characterized by American newspapers not as a note, but as an address by-Foreign Minister Von Jagowto the American people.

U. S. Issues Warning.

The nature of the reply was regarded officially as convincing evidence—if any more were needed—that Germany was holding the submarine warfare negotiations as a club over the United States

to force this government into some action to compel Great Britain to relax the food blockade. President Wilson steadfastly refused to permit the diplomatic negotiations of the United States to become entangled with the relations, with another. The United States replied on July 21 that the German note was "very unsatisfactory" because it failed to meet "the real difficulties between the two governments*" The America-n note concluded with these words of warning: "Friendship itself, prompts it (the United States) to say to the imperial German government that repetition by the commanders jf German naval vessels of acts in contravention of those rights must be regarded by the government of the United States, when they affect American citizens, as deliberately unfriendly."

The negotiations at this point seemed to have come to such an "impasse that the exchanges of notes between Washington and Berlin were stopped and the controversy was brought into the realm of "informal cdnversation" between Secretary Lansing and Count Von Bernstorff, the German ambassador.

Meanwhile the Arabic was sunk on August 19. Coming close on the unsuccessful Lusitania negotiations and a continuation of submarine attacks in which Americans had" suffered, it seemed that the United States and Ger-many-at last had reached the point of a break. Then on Sept. 1 came the first rift in the threatening situation. Count Von Bernstorff, presented this written assurance to Secretary Lansing: ""Liners will not be sunk by our submarines without warning and without safety, to non-combatants, provided that, the liners do not try to escapt or offer resistance."

Tangle ^n Word "Liners." The word "liners" was the complexing point in Germany's assurances and a complete agreement on wha£ it actually meant never was Anally reached.

More hopefulness was added to the situation when on October 5 the Arabic case was disposed of by Germany disavowing the sinking and giving renewed assurances that Submarine commanders had again been instructed to avoid repetition of acts which provoked American condemnation.

With that the negotiations reverted to the Lusitania case. Germany already had agreed to pay Indemnity for American lives lost but the negotiations were delayed by a seeming deadlock over the words in which Germany should acknowledge the illegality of the destruction of the liner. Germany, .unwilling to use the word "illegal."

substitute^ a declaration that "reprisals must not be directed at others than enemy subjects."

A favorable settlement of the long and threatening controv/ersy seemed to be in sight when all the progress that had been made was reduced to nothing by .Germany's declaration of a new submarine policy of sinking without warning all armed, merchant ships. That precipitated a new situation so vitally interwoven with the whole structure of the Lusitania case that President Wilson declined to close the Lusitania settlement while, the other issue was pending, and thei-ethe whole matter rested while German submarine warfare was continued and new caises involving loss of American lives piled up.

Finally the accumulation of evidence reached such proportions with the destruction of the Sussex that President Wilson, convinced that assurances given in the Lusitania and Arabic cases were being violated, dispatched another note to Germany and went before congress, reviewed the «teitire situation from the beginning and made this declaration: "I have deemed it my duty to sa,y to the imperial German government that if it is its purpose to prosecute relentless and indiscriminate Warfare, the government of the United States t' at last forced to the conclusion there is but one course it can pursue, and that, unless the imperial German government should now, immediately, declare and effect an abandonment of its present methods of warfare against passenger and freight carrying vessels this government can have no choice but to sever diplomatic relations altogether."
