BERLIN NOTE IS PONDERED BY PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5. Germany's "utmost concession"' to amiceably settle the Lusitania controversy today was In the hands of President Wilson and Secretary of State Lansing. They must determine whether it meets the

situation so that the honor of the Unit

ed States is preserved. The German ambassador insists that

It does; that it goes further and while

not using the term "disavowal" whose sense cannot be translated as understood here into the German language, concedes to the United States all that international law can require. Secretary Lansing refuses to discuss the matter. He said today that he will require "time" to examine just what the new German suggestion does and its applicability to the entire suggested Lusitania argument.

BERLIN AWAITS WORD. BERLIN, Feb. 5. (via Amsterdam) German government, officials are anxiously awaiting dispatches from Ambassador von Bernstorff, which will give them definite information as to the manner in which the reply to the latest American note on the Lusitania was received Fragmentary press reports telling of pessimism in Washington have reached" here, but nothing of an official character has come, it was staetd at the foreign office.

CIVIC BODIES

After several years of difference of opinion regarding the bridge's location as expressed by the two associations, he explained that they had at last agreed upon the one conclusion that "any location decided on by the commissioners would be satisfactory to both sides." In replying to the statement of the committee chairman, President Doddridge said he appreciated the interest being taken by the two associations and the earnest effort made to reach some conclusion in the matter. Bode Makes Statement. The following statement was made by J. Henry Bode before the commissioners this morning: Mr. President and members of the honorable board of county commissioners: We have a petition for the south side bridge that we would like to preface with a few remarks. The south side bridge question, as you well know has been a burning one for years, not only with the South Side and the Southwest Improvement associations, but the former commissioners have also been handicapped on account of locating the site satisfactory to both sides. Now then, gentlemen, acting upon the advice of some of our most enterprising business men to get together and settle the location, the south side and the south west improvement associations held a joint meet-

ing Feb. 1, 1916, and after discussing sites pro and, con, passed a resolution leaving it to. the honorable beard of commissioners to locate the site where this Vidge should be built, and our slogan is now: 'Gentlemen, we want the bridge.' A committee of three members from each organization was then appointed to appear before your honorable board and petition to you as follows: Richmond, Ind., Feb. 5, 1916. To the board of County Commissioners of Wayne County, Ind.: Gentlemen: . We, the undersigned committees, appointed by and representing respectively the South Side Improvement association and the Southwest Improvement association, respectfully petition your honorable body to at once take proper steps to locate the bridge commonly called the south end bridge and that steps be taken to prepare plans and specifications for such bridge as soon as the location has been selected and decided upon. We further pray that all of said steps be taken at the earliest possible date and that said bridge be constructed as soon as it is possible to select said location, prepare such plans and specif cations and erect said bridge, all during the year of 1916. J. HENRY E. BODE, HANS ROLL, JOHN NIEWOEHNER, Committe from S. S. I. A. JOHN A. REED, JACOB F. ROBBINS, A. M. LEACH, Committee S. W. I. A. Now then, gentlemen, with your permission we would like to add a few remarks in behalf of this committee to the last sentence of the petition which says, "All during the year 1916. Gentlemen, the comimttee is well aware of the fact that you will soon be called upon to erect a Main street bridge, the present structure having been condemned and not in use. Now then, gentlemen, when you dismantle the old structure, and erect a new one, Main street will have to be closed more or less at that point, so that the contractors can carry out their work with out a great danger to the public and their employes and what are you going to do with the traffiic? Will you shift over to the Doran bridge again, as you were compelled to do when you were erecting the present temporary structure? If you do that you will scon have to replace the Doran bridge, which might last for several years to come, if not overburdened. Furthermore, there is still a wide difference of opinion as to what kind of bridge should be erected on Main street, and that problem should be thoroughly gone into before action is taken and that requires time and while this preliminary work is being done for the Main street bridge, you ought to be building the South Side bridge. That would enable you to relieve a great deal of the congestion,

which would surely come if you should attempt to build both bridges at the same time, or if you were to build the Main street bridge before you provided a bridge for the South Side.. . Gentlemen, I want to thank you in behalf of this committee for granting us this hearing and I can assure you that this committee has full confidence in your honorable board, and we sincerely believe, there now being no obstacle, you will act promptly and give us that much desired South Side bridge. 1 Gentlemen, I thank you. Respectfully, J. HENRY BODE, Chairman. JOHN A. REED, . HANS KOLL, A. M. LEACH, ; ' JOHN NIEWOEHNER, JACOB ROBBINS,

MISS WHITE

Continued From Page One. "Finly Gray's record is known. After promising to support suffrage he went down to Washington and voted against the federal amendment, and all the women will work against Finly as a result. "Finly's a lightweight anyway," she continued. "He hasn't any business in congress. He's a joke. "The candidates who will support woman suffrage will be supported 'by the vomen. It is useless to deny that women have political influence. They intend to exercise it in this district." Miss White said that .women have been appointed from each town in Wayne county to attend the first convention, and that a great deal of interest is expected to be taken in this meeting. She declared that the league would put forth strenuous efforts all

over the state to secure suffrage this year.

Harry Garrett, colored, was refused a divorce from his wife this morning In circuit court when the defendant, Mrs Bertha Garrett took the stand and testified that a short time before her husband separated from her he came to her and told her that be in-' tended giving his year-old daughter to another woman. "When he told me that I got so angry I picked up a stove poker and threw it but did not even aim it at him," his wife said. "When a man tells his wife that, she ought to have a right to do anything." she insisted. The plaintiff, who has been working for the Pennsylvania railroad or over a year, came back at his wife in his testimony on the stand and said: "A million dollars wouldn't make me live with her. She treated me like a dog." "Didn't you tell your wife before you were married that the reason you wanted to get married was that yon wanted to quit leading such a fast life and wanted to settle down?" asked Mrs. Garrett's attorney. "No, not that I remember," replied Garrett. Garrett separated from his wifesix weeks after they were married in October, 1913. He went to his father's home in Germantown, O., and then to Cincinnati. He did not return to Richmond until bis child, which he had never seen, was four months old.
