Whether Dr. Moyer-Gerhard will visit headquarters and present his facts to Emperor William in person has not been decided, Extended con- ferences between representatives of the various departments concerned will be required to unify the views of the Foreign Office, the Ministry of Mar- ine and the Naval General Staff for presentation to the United States. ‘These conferences and deliberations have not yet begun and there is nothing to show what direction the current of Germar' policy ultimately will take, It atill is an apen question whether the reply will be another ad interim communication or a definite rejoinder. It may be stated regarding Dr. Meyer-Gerhard's report that the in- formation brought by him contained ttle which was absolutely new to the Fereign Office.

He was repulsed and vigorously shelled by our artillery. “In Carnia we continued methodi- cally to demolish the fortress of Mal- borget with our artillery. On the af- ternoon of the 16th the guns of the fortress tried to reply to our fire but were reduced to silence. “Further detalls continue to come ip concerning the action in the en- virons of Monte Nero mentioned in previous staements. “On tte Isonso front the atruggie around Plava is assuming larger pro- ot) portions, and the importance of the mucosa we have bacomes more and more evident.
