BERLIN NOTE IS PONDERED

BY PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5. Germany's

"utmost concession" to amiceably set

tle 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 under

stood 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 Lusi

tania 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 Lusi

tania 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

Continued From Page One.J said. After several years of difference of opinion regarding the bridge's location as expressed by the two associations, he explained that the7 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" f ew'Tema'rks"." " " 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-

Mr. Guca and Miss Lanios, Chicago members of the American Medical Mission survivors from the mined steamer Brindisi, have arrived here bringing new details of the disaster which occurred of f the Albanian coast. When the vessel struck a mine Miss Lamos was hurled into the sea. She swam back and was able to clutch the rail of the ship; which had not yet gone down. A little later the ship sank, but Miss Lamos kept afloat two hours before boats from shore came to her rescues ,.. --g, ...-r rrs ,

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 bridge 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 roiiows: y - Richmond, Ind., Feb. 5, 1916. To the board of County Commission ers of Wayne County, Ind.: Gentlemen:

We, the undersigned committees, appointed by and representing respectively the South Side Improvement as

sociation and the Southwest Improvement association, respectfully petition

your honorable body to at once take proper steps to locate the bridge com

monly 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 specifications and erect said bridge, all during the year of 1916. . ' J. HENRY E. BODE, HANS KOLL, JOHN NIEWOEHNER, Committe from S. S. I. A. JOHN A. REED, JACOB F. ROBBINS, A. M. LEACH, V - - 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 trafnic? Will you shift over to the Doran bridge again, as you were compelled to do when you were erecting tne present temporary structure? If you ,do that you will soon 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. .-" Gentlemen, I thank you, '. Respectfully, J. HENRY BODE, Chairman. JOHN A. REED, HANS KOLL, A. M. LEACH, - JOHN NIEWOEHNER, JACOB ROBBINS,

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 women. 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 In

THREATENS TO GIVE CHILD TO ANOTHER WHICH AUGERS WIFE

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 he intended 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 for over a year, came back at his wife in bis 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 you wanted to quit leading such & fast life and wanted to settle down?" asked Mrs. Garrett's attorney. "No, not that I remember," replied Garrett. . Garrett separated from his wife six 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 m .11 .U.'l I l I . L. 1 .
