Monday was telegraphed from here! to the Kaiser and Field Marshall Von | Hindenberg, who are on the battle | front. Ambassador Gerard today con- ferred at length with several German officials, and then cabled Washington | a lengthy and coded report on what | probably is the German official senti- ment regarding the Senate specch. However, it was considered probable here today that Germany would not | take an active setp toward peace; again, for these reasons: | Germany Slighted. First. Germany never officially got | the Entente Allies reply to President | Wilson's note. The only versions she ; has received are those car newspapers. Second. Germanys’ original peace! suggestions to lier enemies met with ; what ig regarded here as an insulting | reply. Third. her to state the terms upon which, she | would accept peace. Pleased With Trend. Men who are-in responsible: posi- tions today didn't fail, however, to| state that they are pleased with the trend of the Wilson speech before the Senate. The result of first peace ne- gotiations, however, has been to tight-| en the universal desire of cooperation] toward final victory for the Teutons. One incident of the general cooper- ation of all individuals and the sub- ordination of private enterprises to the general feeling of the nation was shown today when railways voluntar- ily refused to accept shipmehts of bread to any part of the empire, ex- jcept with the written permission of officials of the military. \July ST.
