NEUTRAL RIGHTSREVISION URGED
Prof. Kirchwey Says Ara¬bic Case Calls for a New
World Code.While indignation was expressed
amont* well known New Yorkers last
ni^ht concerning the sinking of theArabic, few of them would be quoteduntil it was definitely establishedwhether any Americans had been
drowned on the torpedoed liner. Manybelieved that when iull details of the |
disaster became known it would befound that Germany had not so en»
tirely disregard« «I President Wilson'slatest protest as would at present ap- jpear.George W. Kirchwey, professor of
law at Columbia University, con-
demned flatly the latest outrage of theKaiser'i lubmariaea."The action of Germany may be re-
carded as a reply to President Wilson'snote protesting against her submarinewarfare policy," said Professor Kirch¬wey. "It is not necessarily an inten-tionnl reply. Yet it shows hevond a
doubt that the Kaiser's governmenthas no expectation of changing thatpolicy in accordance with the demandsof the President."The torpedoing of the Arabic is the
torpedoing of the I.usitania over againwith this difference: The loss of life
is not as k.-reat nor the deed as shock¬ing to our sense of justice. In prin¬ciple the two cases are, according to
nil reports I have heard, absolutely thesame. In consequences they are dif-fêtent."Aided by public opinion, the Presi¬
dent must decide on the next step.This need not and does not mean war.There are a number of courses open tohim short of that. One would be theinterruption of diplomatic relations.A more drastic step would be to cut offall relations with Germany.
"In my opinion the time is rine fora conference at Washington of all thepowers to draw the line anew betweenneutral and belligerent rights. Whenthese are determined the conferenceshould have the power to enforce them1-y bringing about concerte«! actionagainst any power or group «.f powersrefusing to observe them."
.lohn W. f'r'trgs, of Pateraon, formerAttorney General of the United Stand once Governor of New Jersey,when asked last night to comment on
the sinking of the Arabic, said:"To express an opinion in the ab¬
sence of details of the sinking of theArabic seems rather premature. Ofcourse, if American citizens' lives werelost without their having had a chanceto save themselves, this case wouldcome under the same head as that ofthe I.usitania. If opportunity were giventhe passenrers to save themselves, that¡a to the credit of the submarine com¬mander. Without details, however, itdoes not seem easy nor is it quiteproper to express an opinion."

ARABIC HUNTEDALMOST A YEARBY SUBMARINES
U-Boats Lay in Wait forBig Munitions Carrier
on Eastern Trip.
SKIPPER FINCHELUDED TRAPS
Fires and Dynamite Also Usedin Attempts to Destroy
White Star Liner.
When the White Star line.- Arnbicdropped under the surface off the Irishcoast yesterday forenoon the German
Admiralty had accomplished a feat it
had l.een striving for ever since lastOctober. The Arabic had been a thornin the side of the imperial governmentas a successful and elusive munitioncarnei ever since she replaced theCedric in the Nesv York and Liverpool ,
service ten months ago.Captain William Finch, the vessel's»
portly commander, was a thinker a re¬
sourceful skipper who could not becaught either going or coming bv theunderseu craft that hud been laying forhim at every point in the war zone
where he was supposed to fetch un toget his bearings.
German» After Finch.It was known in the shipping district
that the Germans wanted to get Finch.He knew it himself, but the gameamused rather than annoyed him. Heis reported to have said once that ifthey ever got him it would be west¬
bound, when he didn't have anythingon board that the Allies wanted verybadly.That was the way they got him. west-
bound, with a comparatively smallpassenger complement and cargo. Onthe eight or nine eastbound trio* ofthe Arabic, when ^ie was laden to theplims««ll with 10.00(1 or 12-000 tons oflighting material. Finch never showedup where he was expected or when hewas expected, and the vessel gotthrough safi I)The Arabic was cither ahead of
schedule or behind schedule. Some-times she would niai-e the land andsometimes she would lay well off theIrish coast, nosing over well to theeast near the Bristol Channel and theWelsh coast, or to the south, a littlenorthwest of the Scillys.Undersea attack was not »he onlv
means employed by Germany to sinkthe Arnbic. <>n her his« eastwardpassage to Liverpool an effort was
made to explode dynamite on board.On the night before her departurefrom here two sticks of the explosivewere found at midnight in the women'slavatory and turned over to the Bu-reau of Combustibles. The lind waskept secret until August »S. when thevssel arrived safely in Liverpool,after which the White Star officialsconfirmed the statement issued by Po-lice Headquarters.
Fire Also Tried.Fire was another form of destruc-
tion directed upon the Arabic to gether out of the way as a menacing am¬
munition carrier. While in Liverpoolearly in June six tires were discoveredon board in vario« places, but were
fought successfully. They were enoughto frighten travellers away, and thefew that did cross on her to this porton the trip ending July 11 werestartled by false alarms of lire in mid-Atlantic.
Early in February, when British pas-
I »enger c»rrier« were resoiting to theuse of the American flag as u protection«gainst attack, the Arabic steamed bold-ly up the Irian iee flying a big Britishensign and jack.The Arabic had been for almost a
year a floating arsenal on each of hereastbound trips from this port. Shewas a s-hip of 15,Kill ton» gross, and anenormous cargo could bo stowe«! a\vaj¡in her hold. Her decks were usuallycongested with uutomohile truck« andaeroplanes. She was fiOO feet long andhad .. beam of »i.'i feet.Submarines were trying to get the
Arabic in May when the Lu«itani,i wassent to the bottom off the Old Head ofKinsale. Finch heard the ame warn¬
ing» that were sent rut to the Lusi-«aiiia and, heedinir them, escaped.The message, which was in code, was
rent out from the Admiralty's flagshipin Queen-tosvn Harbor and, deciphered,read: "Submarines active off southcoast of Ireland.''The skipper »aid he caught the mes¬
sage Wednesday night after leavingLiverpool, and although he intended togive the Irish coast a vide berth hechanged his eourss suddenly to thesouthe«i»t toward Bristol, going thirty-live miles out of his course. Then heencountered fog and had its protectionuntil out of the danger zone.
Gun Club Aboard.The Arabic has frequently come to
public attention, and recently her namewas associated with the question ofarming merchantmen for defensivemeasures. On her arrival here July 2'.\passengers talked freely of the "gunclub" organized by steward-, stokersand sailormen. «
It was said members of the gun clubwere equipped with high powered riflesthat could put a submarine out of com¬
mission and that they practised it a
target towed a thousand yards astern.The Arabic's -tern during the last fouror five trips has been well banked withsandbags to protect her steering gearin the event, of her running away fromB submarine.

heavy fighting, in which no satisfac-tor** progress was made, the Britishadvance was halted. Losses *_n both¦idea were very large.
BRITISH OFFICIAL.The text of the statement follows:The recent operations on the Gal-
lipoli Peninsula consisted of attackson the enemy's positions along thesouthern and Anzac lines and in-eluded the fresh landing of a strong
force at Suvla Bay.There is evidence from prisoners'
-taternents thai the Turks had been
considerably reinforced, with a view-
to heavy attacks on us, and that ours
foreatolled the enemy's by about
twenty-four hour««. Consequently the
fighting was very severe, and on bothmides the casualties were very high.The landing at Suvla Bay was well
planned and carried out by the navy,
but in spite of the fact that theTurks developed their greatest.trength m the Anvac region our
troop- from Suvla cjiild not makevery satisfactory progress before thecnt'iiij was able to move up consid¬erable forces from biJ reserve andbring our further advance at this
