TO TELL ALL THE FACTS. |Has Been in This Country Some Time and Knows Public Sentiment. Dr. Meyer Gerhard, member of the German Privy Council, the agent by whom Ambassador Count von Bern- storff is to acquaint the German Gov- ment with the real attitude of this Government and {ts people regard- ing the German use of submarines Against merchant vessels, sailed for Copenhagen, Denmark, yesterday on tho steamship United States of the Scandinavian-American Line. It was known in Washington yes- terday that President Wilson had agreed with Count von Bernstorff that in view of the unsatisfactory conditions in wireless service—the only means of rapid communication available between the Ambassador and his home office—that a fully in- formed messenger in whom the Ger- man Foréign Office would have com- Plete confidence might well go at once to Germany to supplement the mos- sages which the Count has forward- ed by cable in the United States diplomatic code through the Ameri- can Embassy at Berlin, But the Rame of the messenger and his ship did not become known until to-day. Dr. Gerhard has been in thig city at the Ritz-Carlton for some time. He is @ close friend and associate of Dr. Dernburg, the German protagonist whoso zeal in trying to shape Ameri- can sentiment brought about a re- quest to the German Embassy that he leave this country as soon as convenient. Dr, Gerhard delivered an address here recently after, a speech The German messenger went aboard the liner United States just before | st sailing time yesterday, accompanied by four friends, He retired to his stateroom at once and @# guard was posted at the door. Dr. Dernburg was not with him and is still at the Rits-Carlton, He has intimated that he too will sail for a Scandinavian port within two weeks, Meantime he |.! has instructed the management of the hotel that he w'!! receive no cards trom would-be callers. Before the Scandinavian-America Line would accept Dr. Gerhard as a Passenger he had to produce a safe conduct from the British Embassy at Washington guaranteeing him from interference from any cruiser of the allies which might encounter the United States. The line has a strict rule, in order to avoid complications, forbidding the booking of Germans or Austrians. Dr. Gerhard, who was known as “Dr. Meyer" to the employees of the hotel, made rather a mystery of his departure from the Rits-Carlton yeu- He ordered his luggage put intow taxicab and went to the desk to in Big have eis assortmente—all different.
