American call to German is the headline over the article, from which the following are quotations: that the threatening note directed at Berlin was meant in earnest, the view is forced upon us that the German empire, if it does not submit to the demands and draw back before the threats, must look upon war with America as a fact.

U. S. War Frighten Germany. "In all calmness we submit that a war condition of this kind does not frighten the German empire or the people who will calmly follow tee government. Trade between Germany arid America has shrunk to microscopic dimensions.

What they receive from us is more valuable and necessary to them than what we receive from them. Complete cutting off of negotiations would leave us cold. Talks of Difficulties. would only be able to damage by confiscating the trading ships left in her harbors and much other German property. Further dangerous deeds of war against Germany are not to be feared, because they would not be possible.

Also we do not forge? that there are certain interior difficulties in America. "On the other hand the German submarine war against British trade will obtain growing results the longer and more energetically it is carried forward. Any stopping of this, if only for a time, would have most important results. Any orders to submarine commanders that they conform to any of the formal conditions laid clown by international law would mean the hindering of their actions and make the submarine war, an empty farce, a kind of screen behind which one would obediently have to withdraw. To rob the submarine war of its possibilities In such a way would mean having to give it up en- and withdraw from it with apologies." Admits German Torpedoed Gulfhsht- Berlin, May (Via London.) All doubt that the American steamship Gulfligl was torpedoed by a German submarine was removed when It was announced by the admiralty that the commander of the submarine in question admitted the attack, reporting that he thought the Gulflight was a British vessel or that she caf Springfield, 111., May All the marriage laws of every in thej union would be adopted LI noi under a bill of George 1L Wilson of Quinc which warn forced through the house by 77 to 14 votes, with sixty-j two not voting.

In many other rer-peels Illinois puts less obstacles in way of marriage than do other states. California and New Mexico require ex dnatinn oath and affidavits before a license is issued.

In Illinois the age at which girls can marry is sixteen years, while in Idaho and New York it is eighteen years and in many other state the common law fixes the limit.
