GERMANY WILL ASK 0. §5. 70 MEDIATE New York Paper Says Gerard is on Way Home with Re- quest by Kaiser. HE WILL ARRIVE TUESDAY New York, Oct. 6.—~The New York Evening Post today publishes a story saying that it has been learned from a trustworthy source that Ambassador James W. Gerard, now on his way back from Germany, will lay before President Wilson a request that the president use his good offices in suing for peace with the allies. “Germany has definitely decided to lrply to President Wilson,” the arti- cle reads, “to use his good offices in suing for peace with the allies, This was learned today from sources in a position to have absolutely trustwor- thy information on these matters. “It is understood that Ambassador James W. Gerard, who is on his way over here, will lay the kaiser's re- quest before President Wilson withit a week. It is a fact, however po tively it may have been denied offi- cially, that the possibility of Presi- dent Wilson acting as mediator has been discussed by German officials with Ambassador Gerard, It s, therefore, by no means surprising that the repprts now take definite shape in connection with Mr. Ger- ard’s trip to this country.” Ambasador Gerard is on board the steamship Frederick VIII, due in New York about Tuesday.
