PARIS, April 1!).—Huron Denys*
Cochin, under secretary of the foreign
office in charge of blockade questions,
in a talk with American correspond
i ents on the entente blockade policy
j against Germany, said today:
“Dr. von Hethmunn-Hollweg, the
German chancellor, and Dr. Alfred
Zimmermann, the German foreign sec
retary, in their recent declarations
sought to throw upon the entente the
responsibility for a continuance of
, bloodshed. They talked of a blockade
which it was asserted, was causing the
death of women and children. The en
| tente is not at all responsible for a
! situation which it did not create and
! which grows out of the most unquali
j lied aggression. The blockade, such as
I the Germans understand it, does not
i resemble in any way that which we
| have organized and which we are pur
! suing.
“M. Zimmermann complains of thel
| inhuman extension Great Britain isj
making in the North Sea war zone,
that is to say the laying of mines to
bar the way of the submarines. Hut
who is it who started to lay mines?
It was not the allies but Germany.
England before the war, notably in
1907 at the Hague showed herself hos
tile to the use of submarine mines.
Germany demanded the l ight to use!
mines in terms, furthermore, which
would hardly permit one to foresee the)
use which she would make of them.
; From the early days of the war Ger
many spread mines in the North sea
| and elsewhere around the English
coasts in order to intercept the com
mercial routes. The allied admiralties
; first announced the fact in order to,
I warn peaceful navigation and then
j gave notice of relatiatory measures
j which they regretfully announced
| they would have to take. The laying
of mines in open sea assuredly is de
; structive to the liberty of the sea. It
j affects the innocent as much as the
I neutrals.
“M Zimmermann attributes to the
| entente the project of waging a war
I of extermination, not only against the
S armies of the central empires but also
! against women and children. The en
tente powers have never had such
black designs. They want to obtain
reparation for the past, guarantees for
the future. They desire to obtain
them w'ith the least loss and suffering
I
j possible. They asked only to mainta,n
j peace; attacked, they were obliged to
struggle to conquer that peace. They
| hope to accomplish it at the lowest
: possible cost; they wish to compel
’ their adversaries to yield. They have
j no desire to exterminate them. They
! do not profess, as does the German
' manual of instruction to officers, that
‘humanitarian considerations such as
those respecting the care of persons
and their property can only come into
question if the nature and aim of the
war permits of it and that the only
real humanity rests frequently in the
employment of severity.’ ”
GERMAN FRIES AND
GERMAN PAN ROAST
COME UNDER A BAN
CHICAGO, April 13. — “German
fried” potatoes and “German pot
roast” were officially interned in
Chicago today for a period extending
over the duration of the war.
At a special meeting of the Chicago
Hotel association it was decided to
eliminate all signs of German parent
age from the articles on their menu.
The dishes themselves will not be tam
pered with but the “monickers” are all
due for revision.
Hereafter it will be “American”
noodles, potatoes and pancakes. No
decision has been reached as to the
fate of the toothsome weiner, schnit
zel and other dishes of unchangeable
Teutonic nomenslature.
The innovation goes into effect im
mediately.

TAKEN FROM
THE PUSES OF
U. S. HISTORY
Since the war of the Revolution and
i the foundation of the republic, the
] United States has engaged in four
; foreign wars, not counting the punish
i nient of the pirates of Algiers—with
France in 1798; with Great Britain in
j 1812; with Mexico in 1840 and with
Spain in 1898—during which diplo
| matic relations between the United
i States and those countries was sev
ered, and in addition 12 ambassadors,
ministers and attaches of foreign
countries have been either recalled,
dismissed or handed their passports
by this country for various breaches
of international etiquette.
Our War With France.
In 1797 the French directory, dis-1
pleased with the strict neutrality j
which the United States had observed]
during the war between England and j
France, adopted resolutions, injurious I
to American commerce and refused to]
receive Charles C. Pinckney, the
American minister, until the United ,
States complied with its demands. !
A special commission composed of
John Marshall, former chief justice
of the United States; Charles C.
Pinckney and Elbridge Gerry was sent;
to France, hut the French government I
refused to receive them. Prince Tal- ,
leyrand sent secret agents to deal 1
with them, and they demanded that a
large sum be paid the French govern- ;
ment before the envoys could be re— 1
ceived. After that the United States j
must lend money to France to carry
on the war when France would repeal
some of the obnoxious measures.
The American envoys refused such
terms of Pinckney’s declaration of
“Millions for defense, but not one cent
for tribute” was taken as a popular
cry in this country.
The United States prepared for
war; frigates were built and an armv
|
was raised. Some naval engagements
took place, but war was not actually
declared.
President Adams then sent three |
envoys to France, despite the protests I
of two members of his cabinet, and !
they were cordially received by Na
poleon Bonaparte, who was then in
control of the French government.
The war lasted from July 9, 1798
to September 30, 1800, but the peace
terms were not satisfactory to the
American people and Adams was not
re-elected.
War With England.
The second war with Great Britain
began June 18, 1812, and lasted until
February 17, 1813, though several
years before the British man-of-war
Leopold fired on the United States
frigate Chesapeake, killing and
wounding 21 members of the crew and
taking four men, three of whom were
Americans. The British disavowed
the act, but made no reparation.
The next foreign war in which the
United States engaged was that with
Mexico, which-lasted from April 24,
1846, until July 4, 1848.
In addition to the foreign diplomats
i given their passports because of wars,
! the following diplomats were dismiss
ed by the United States.
Citizen Genet was sent to this coun
try in 1793 by the French committee
of safety, and when he tried to com
mission privateers to prey on the
British, President Jefferson asked for
his recall.
In 1805 Marquis of Casa Yrujo, the
Spanish minister to the United States,
attempted to bribe a Philadelphia ed
itor to favor Spain in a controversy
and was handed his passports.
F. J. Jackson, the British minister,
was recalled in 1809 because he tried
to arouse feeling against the United
States by issuing circulars to British
consuls accusing the American gov
ernment of bad faith.
In 1849 Poussin, the French minis
ter, was recalled for insolence to the
American secretary of state.
In 1855 British Minister Crampton
was recalled for his activity in enlist
ing soldiers in this country for the
Crimean war. The exquaturs of three
1
j
I
British consuls were cancelled at the
same time.
In 1888 passports were handed Lord
Sackville-West, the British minister
who, in response to a decoy letter, ad
vised Americans of British birth to
vote for Grover Cleveland.
In 1898 Spanish Minister Dupuy de
Lome was dismissed for writing- dis
respectfuly of President McKinley to
a friend in Cuba.
In September, 1915, Dr. Constantin
Theodor Dumba, Austrian ambassa
dor, was recalled at the request of the
United States as a result of his at
tempt to cripple American industries.
December 3, 1915, Germany was re
quested to immediately recall Captain j
Bov-Ed and Captain von Papen, the |
naval and military attaches of Ger- i
many in this country.

WANDERER RETURNS.
