PRESIDENT WAITS FORbELL|GERENTSTO
 MAKE FIRST MOVE
Will Avoid Thrusting Good Offices of United States Upon Warning Factions at InOppOrtune Time

Washington, September 19.-Ef- forts of the United States government to bring about peace in Europe vir- tually are at a standsiill, according to White House and state department of ficials.
 Acting Secretary Robert Lansing today said the message received from MT. Gerard, giving his conversation with the imperial chancellor as to peace proposals, mad not been forwarded to American em- bassies. nor had the subject been dis cussed with foreign ambassadors here. While the message from MT. Gerard, re- cordlng the chancellor's remarks sug- gested that the United States should ask for peace terms of the allies, because 1t is alleged they had begun the war the American government does not con strue that suggestion as an obligation President WilsoA, 1t is known. Is en- deavoring scrupulously to avoid thrustine the good offices of the United States upon any of the belligerents at an inop- perfume time.
 The President is biding his time, hop ing that as the war progresses one oi the belligerents will take some definite step which will enable the United States to help r1ake peace.
 England Resentful Dispatches from Great Britain indicate some sentiment over the talk of peace emanating from the United States One diplomatist compared the situation to that existing just before the Spanish American war broke out The efforts of certain European diplomats to stave off that conflict, he said met with bitter denunciation by the American press and abrupt rejection by officials of the Ameri- ccr government.
 Official telegrams brought little news from the var zone today. Neutral observ- CTS in the Balkan states reported that preparations were being made to assist s;ervia and Russia in the invasion of Austria. Demonstrations In favor of the allies likewise were reported from Bull garia. where Belgian victories have pro- duced a profound interest.
 The American ambassador at Paris had arranged, it became known today. to transfer the American embassy to former Representative Sharp of Ohio. the newly appointed ambassador. October 1. Tho department had left 1t to the men involved to arrange the date

 One German prisoner said that the first battalion of the First regiment of German foot guards did not possess a single officer. Among the Germans killed, according to the prisoners was General Von Schack. A German officer declared that all horses of the Ger man Tenth army corps were killed. and added.
 "Even when bivouacing our troops are not allowed to rest. Last night a French aviator dropped four bombs among us. killing large number of men and horses"
 An officer of the Prussian guards said:
 My regiment started out with so officers only five remain, while more than 3000 men of our regiment have been killed or wounded"

Fatigue and Priyations as Result of Unrelenting Struggle Forces Lull in Battle of the Aisne
SOLDIERS SNATCHING
 MUCH NEEDED REST HUDDLED IN NTRENCHES
Wounded Tell of Horrible Enormity of Casualties.
 Isolated Encounters Con-
 tinue-Result Undecisive

On the battle front, Sep tember 19.-(By way of Paris, 3.46 p. m.) = Overpowering fatigue and privations result ing from five days of unrelent- ing struggle brought about last night a temporary lull in the combat of the powerful armies that are face to face along the rivers, Disc, Aisne and Woevre.
 The roar of cannon. machine guns and rifles died down early last even ing and the presence of armies com posed probably altogether of ,00O.0 GOO or more men within touch on an e~en ground and ready to spring to fatni lgrip scarcely could be conceived SO intense was the stiffness. broken only sy an occasional vagrant report.
 Tie soldiers Of the allies and the Germans alike were snatching a little. rest huddled up in the strong entrench- ments. In some places the trenches were half filled with water as equi- noctal storms continue.
 Settle Down to Fighting
 The French and British, like the Ger mans, have entrenehed and settled down for the stern fight which threat ems to be even longer and more san guinary than the battle of the Marne. rno fu 1, by the allies, and the developments of the past "A hours are not important except that 1t is officially confirmed that the Germans have received re- Inducements from Lorraine.
 There were a few isolated encounters today but both sides appear to have abandoned the rash movements across the open. Obviously the deadly ma chine guns have taught d lesson.
 One of the incidents of yesterday. when the fierce fighting was awful in sacrifices. was widely recounted to- day
 \ British infantry regiment, upon res ceiving an order to advance and take a German position knelt for a moment in prayer Then the men, knowing that
  sprang to their feet and with fixed bayonets eiambered out of the shelter of the trench. In short and rapid rushes they advanced in wideopen or der. alternately lying down and then making another dash of 15 yards From the German position came the thick hail of the machine guns. The Iattacking soldiers hurrahed and sang as they pressed forward. Many fell with cries of determination on their | lips. Finally those who remained of the regiment reached and took the Ger man position after desperate hand to- hand encounter.
 This was only one among many simi- lar acts of courage and discipline on fthe part of French, British and Ger mans alike at various points along the line.
