From Philadelphia. Public Ledger--The German note Is in effect a flat refusal of the Amer- ican demands--a refusal emphasized by proposals that aggravate the ori- ginal offence, North American--The reply is an intolerable evasion which leaves un- touched the murder of American citizens and insolently sweeps aside the demand for "strict accountabil- ity."

The Extreme of Arrogance, Denver Post--Germany's reply to Aurerica's demand in reference submarine warfare wil] be shocking to all whe love peace and right and justice. It is the extreme of arro' gance, selfishness and obstinacy What (Germany demands for hersel! she should at least be willing to con code to. others; but she never does.
