(Continued from aiil_l effect, that Great Britain or

France intended to sink l!!!) Iroquois and credit the deed to a German submflfllifl- -

The British liner Athenia. carry" ing many Americans. was sunk the clay Great Britain declared a 81111-6 of war with Gcnnflny-

Great Britain blamed a German U-buat. Germans hinted that the Athenig might have been sunk bv the Reich's foes to arouse Ameri- cans as they were by m“ 9°?" pedoing of the Lusitania during the Great. War.

One question which went un- answered tonight was how Germany had gained the ad- vance information which it claimed to have.

The navy‘ declined to disclose the number or names of the vessels rushing toward the Iroquois, a ves- sel formerly in the coasiwise trade

which was chartered by i116 Unli- ed States lines to bring home Am- ericans caught in Europe by war. The position of ihe steamship like- wise remained secret.

The White House statement said the captain of i-hc Iroquois had been told of the note received from the German Admiralty and “ha: been asked to makc careful search for any possible explosive; aboard his ship," The information avail- able to the American Government, it said, also has been conveyed to the British and French admiral-

ties.

Both the White House and the German Ermbassy said they had no information in addition to that

given Commander Schracier in Berlin. Early told reporters the coast-

guard and naval vessels would “ac- company” rather than “esc0rt" the Iroquois. When a ship ls escorted. he said, it Ls, under command of the conveying vesseh, When a ves- sel merely i5 accompanied, he said. she remains under orders of her own captain. He said the Iroquois would not be darkened 0i‘ 0091'- ated under orders of the war craft.

Early said the President had re- ceived the original despatch rc- garding the Iroquois last night. All the information it contained, he. said. was included in the White House statement, although it was paraphrased to protect the code in which it was submitted to this. country.
