Hopes That United States Will
Play Noble Part in Bringing
About Peace.

Washington, Dec. 1.-Dr Henry
Van Dyke, American minister to the
Netherlands, late today denied -he
often published reports that he re-
turned to America with special mes
sage from Queen Wilhelmina to Pres
ident Wilson about the movement to
restore peace in Europe. Van Dyke
described to Bryan the earnest desire
of Queen Wilhelmina and the people
of Holland for an early ending OF the
war. The minister expressed the
nope that when the time for settle
ment sarrived the United States
would play a noble part in bring
ing about peace. He is sure at heart
that Holland will be with the United
States in such efforts.
Tomorrow he viii discuss European
conditions with the President. "The
desire of the United States for peace,
said Van Dyke, "is a well known fact.
All things, however, have proper
moment. We can trust the Presl-
dent" Bryan may determine when
that moment arrives.
