CRUEL WAR over,
SAYS BERNSTORFF
Garmany Ready to Make Peace,
Ambassador Asserts
ADMITS DEFEAT ON THE SEA
German Ambassador to the United
States Issues Remarkable Statement
for Publication--Asserts Allies Are
Beaten and Kaiser 10 Withdrawing
Troops From West to Wipe Russians
OF the Map In East Prussia.

New York. Sept. lon this, tho
forty-fourth anniversary OF the battle
OF Sedan. which decided the result OF
the war of 1870, Count Johann Won
Bernstorn, German ambassador To tho
United States, fresh from consultation
with the German foreign office. issued
a. statement for publication in which
he assures the people of the United
States that the war is over: the allies
are beaten and the kaiser Is ready to
make peace. Germany can now recall
great bodies Of troops from France TO
oppose the Russians. who will be de-
feated forthwith, he says.
n resume OF the ambassadors views
follows:
i. The war is won. The coalition
has been defeated In western Europe.
German defeat on land is now out OF
the question.
= The aims OF the German general
stan have been attained. The allies
have been 30 badly and so suddenly
worsted that Germany is free to with
draw, as she has begun to do, great
numbers OF men to ward on the Rus
sian invasion.
=. The defeat on the seas is ack-
nowledged with tho proviso that tho
defeat was TO be expected since the
German navy has always boen meant
simply to defend the coast line. and
that II the English assumed the grow
ing German navy was meant for any
other purposes they labored under n
sadly mythical conception.
4. Germany did not begin the war.
She did not want the war. She is
ready for peace at any moment.
3. German victory means n great ad
vance OF democracy in the empire. The
nation can never forget how the whole
people rose as one man against an un.
just attack, nor how tho leader OF the
Socialists made speech amid the
Wild cheers OF the conservative party.
which stood up TO a man, waving their
huDdkerchiefs at him.
