Germany would be almost eNtin"ushed
unless some compensatins arrangements
couId be made. Emperor William himself
has oIeSeen the growth OF much Ill 1eel-
ing between Germany and the United
States rs n result and he has specially
charged Baron Stcrnberg to do everything
possibIC to avert this by negotiating Il
treaty with this government that would
place the American producers Oh all

Tho American ambassador has already
cautiously preached the subject here, but
he is so well acquainted with the state
of feeling in the United States Seratn
towards reciprocity that he has not been
able to report that the prospects are IA
vorahle for the conSummatiOn OF Il Ger

change of heart on the part of the sem
