GERMANY LOOKS TOWARD CHANGE IN WAR'S RULES

BERLIN. May 31.That the German government in insisting on diplomatic negotiations with the United States over submarine warfare and the destruction of the Lusitania, Is looking into the future and expects to establish a foundation for the read justment Oi the international rules of warfare was the expression of opinion current in official circles today. Although not expressed In concrete form by the foreign office, the German government is ready to contend that the introduction of the submarine and aeroplane in warfare and the action of England in trying to crush this nation by economic pressure must all be considered in a new light. They cannot be regularted, according to the German view, by the laws of the past. The fact that the German reply to President Wilson's note would not be whole heartedly received in the United States was discounted here. But f oreign Minister Von Jaegow and his advisors believe that Germany is justified in attempting to "establish a basis of fact relative to the exact character of the Lusitania" before proceeding into the final stages of the negotiations. If the line adopted by the German foreign office is followed it would require the exchange of several notes before a final decision is reached, and in the meantime her submarine warfare against hostile shipping will continue. GOD GUIDES NATION THROUGH ALL WARS ASSERTS REV. RAE Observance of Memorial day was made by the congregation of the First Presbyterian church Sunday afternoon when services were held in the church consisting of a memorial sermon by the pastor, the Rev. J. J. Rae and special music by the choir. The members of the choir sang, "Tenting on the Old Campground," and the Battle Hymn o the Republic." The Rev. Mr. Rae in his patriotic sermon, said In part: "The nations that have made the greatest contribution to the world's welfare have been those who have stood for the equality of the race. "The Hebrew people were the first of the nations to aspire to this, and their success ended when they departed from it. Christ proclaimed the equity of men, and His teachings of the Fatherhood of God and His fidelity thereto brought Him to the cross. "The Roman nation took up the Christian religion as an aid to imperialism, and turned away the progress of human brotherhood. "Christianity was then led In the providence of God to the Saxon peoples and with them it began anew. One by one the old destructive ideas died and with the "divine right of kings" the world's greatest fallacy fell. "Then there was another beginning. The Pilgrim Fathers, imbued with the concept of liberty, left the old world and founded on this new world the nation that was to demonstrate to the race the principles for which Christ died. Our only failures have been and are when we forget this. Our successes are always added with its remembrance. "Through the war for independence and through the tragic Civil war the Divine hand was leading us to the goal of national equality, and if again we ever are involved in war it will be to preserve our ideals and stand for the rights of men to be free and equal. God hath not dealt so with any people. Let us give to Him the highest praise and deepest devotion, and recognizing our exalted place, be worthy of the past of God's dealings and individually lift the standard higher yet to the blessing of God and the approval of men." HOLD LAST PRACTICE FOR RICHMOND SHOW Final rehearsals for the seven acts in the "Richmond Follies of 1915" under the direction of H. A. Deardorf, will be held tonight. The show will be given Tuesday and Wednesday night at the Gennett theatre, the proceeds to go to the day nursery and visiting nurse fund.

LO! SUM COMETH Lo ! summer cometh through her emerald gate With life renewed in flower and bird and tree, And lift her voice to comfort every cry; And filled the world with joy and melody. Yet, over all these smiling fields of green, Hate, the destroyer, reigns, and mine and shell Burst from the earth and sea and sky serene And myriads perish in a flaming hell. Nature would stretch her loving hand to save And life her voice to comfort every cry ; The turf is green that grows on many a grave And blossoms clothe the fields where heroes lie. But in despairing hearts what summer's bloom Shall hide with flowers of hope this universal tomb? WILLIAM DUDLEY FOULKE.

ONLY 12 VETERANS ATTEND MEMORIAL; RANKS GROW THIN

Whitewater, once regarded as the center of patriotism of Wayne county and the district from which the largest per cent of men enlisted as soldiers in the Civil war, claims only twelve veterans. Yesterday the annual Memorial day services, the biggest event Whitewater celebrates each year, were held in the Methodist church and instead of fifty or sixty veterans of a few years ago, only twelve were present. The veterans were the center of a crowd of citizens, many of whom drove for miles to witness the celebration. Patrick J. Lynch of New Castle, was the speaker. He delivered a memorial address dealing with the patriotism of the soldiers of the civil war and side incidents of the conflict Charles W. Jordan acted as chairman. At the cemetery, Fred White delivered the tribute to the unknown dead. John Hunt represented the army men in a short reading. Glen Jennings gave a recitation. At the cemetery, thirty-five little girls dressed in white, decorated the graves. Singing was led by Grace B. Gormon of Richmond. Instrumental mdsic was furnished by the Whitewater band. MEMORIAL RECALLS ALLEGIANCE TO MAN Large congregations were present at both services of the First English Lutheran churches Sunday. At the morning services Rev. E. G. Howard, pastor of the church, delivered the annual memorial service, discussing the reasons for the celebration of Memorial Day. He said the observance of the day was a blessing to the nation in that it recalled to the people of the country, their allegiance to God and mankind. He also pointed out that religion enters into patriotism and vice versa. At the evening services, the congregations of the other English Lutheran churches met at the First English Lutheran church in a union service. Rev. Isley delivered a strong sermon and the Junior choir of the church rendered several musical numbers. New York City has 26,000 factories, employing nearly 700,000, ..-ho earn over $350,000,000 a year.
