Next to the action of the Cabinet in approving the President's note to Ger many, the most interesting develop ment jesterdaj' in the Intel national sit uation was the receipt of a note from the German foreign office acknowledg ing In great detail its blame for the torpedoing of the American hip Gulf light. expressing regiet. and declaring itself readj to furnish full compensa tion for the damage sustained In the note there is also partial ac knowledgment of blame for the drop ping of bombs from an aeroplane upon the AmerlcJii ship dishing Before Germanj- formallv acknowledges her respoiiMbilitv for the ( ushing case. however, she asks the l nited Mates for all the facts In tne possession of the State Department, so as to enable her to form a just Judgment.

The following. In part, is the text of the German note. "In regard to the attack on the steamer Gulflight, the commander of a German submarine saw on the afternoon of Maj 1 In the viclnltj- of the Sclllj Islands a large merchant steamer coming In his direction, which was accompinied bj" two smill"r vessels. These latter took such position In relation to the steamer !

Since such vessels are reg ularly armed, the submarine could not approach the steamer on the surface of the water without running the danger of destruction. It was. on the other hand, to be assumed that the steimer was of considerable value to the British j Upon scrutiny of the time and place of the occurancc described, the Ger man government has become convinced that the attacked steamship was actu- allj the American steamship Gulflight. There can be no doubt, according to the attendant circumstances, that the attack is to be attributed to an unfortu nate accident and not to the fault of the commander. The German govern ment expresses Its regrets to the gov ernment of the United States concern ing this incident and declares itself ready to furnish filll recompense for the damage thereby sustained by American citizens. It Is left to the dis cretion of the American government to present a statement ot this damage or. if doubts may arise over individual points, to designate an expert who would have to determine together with a German expert the amount of the damage. "The undersigned leaves It to the Ambassador to bring the foregoing to the immediate attention of his gov ernment, and takes this opportunity to renew to him the assurance of hi most distinguished consideration. fRIarn.d) MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS"!
