Show GERMAN PAPERS ANGRY, BUT ARE NOT REPENTANT Criticise Count Luxburg Because He Lacked Discretion Dis-cretion and Caution and Got Caught. SWEDISH PRESS AGAINST ENTENTE Argentine Foreign Minister Declares Incident Not Closed; Germany Must Give Assurances. AMSTERDAM, Sept. 16. The pan-German pan-German newspapers, which have taken longer than the remainder of the German press to digest Count Luxburg"s famous dispatches to the German foreign office through the Swedish legation in Argentina, Argen-tina, complain of- the count's lack of dis cretion and can'tion, and indeed appear to be very cross with every one concerned. con-cerned. The newspaper Taegliche Rundschau Rund-schau of Berlin says it was not absolutely absolute-ly necessary for the count to announce by cable that he regarded the Argentinian Argen-tinian foreign minister as a notorious ass. It thinks that might have' been said later. The comment of Count von Reventlow in the Tages Zeltung is distinguished from the rest by the absence of any attempt at-tempt to explain away Count Luxburg's reference to "sinking without, leaving a trace." The count merely fumes because such dispatches indicate that the submarine subma-rine warfare had not been guided strictly and unchangeably by the proclamation of the barred zone. The Kreuz Zeitung, like several other newspapers, explains Count Luxburg's famous fa-mous expression as meaning that persons in lifeboats were to be taken on board submarines instead of being left off enemy coasts. ARGENTINA WILL NOT BE SATISFIED WITH APOLOGIES BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 16. Foreign Minister Puevrredon informed the Associated Associ-ated Press today that he is satisfied that the expulsion of Count Luxburg, the German minister to Argentina, has not closed the incident growing out of t lie telegrams the minister sent to Berlin through the 'Swedish legation here. Minister Pueyrredon declared that the Argentine government intends to act energetically, en-ergetically, but not precipitately, in upholding up-holding the honor of the republic and to close the present incident favorably. The Argentine government has sent cablegrams to Dr. Duis B. Molina, the minister at Berlin, concerning the negotiations, nego-tiations, but no official response has yet been received. The foreign minister believes be-lieves the delay is due to difficulties of transmission and the censorship. The foreign minister s;iirl lie holieved Germany would make concessions to retain re-tain the friendship of Argentina, hut explained ex-plained that friendship between the two countries will end unless the republic obtains the assurances and concessions desired. An anti-German demonstration planned by foreign residents hero was prohibited today by the government. SWEDISH PAPERS OPPOSE CHANGE IN MINISTRY STOCKHOLM. Sept. IS.
