TEMPORARY TRUCE Is

WITH WARNING NATlONS-SlR
EDWARD GREY TALKS.

shington.-Emperor William has
had under consideration for several
days an informal inquiry from the
United States government as to
whether German desires to discusc
terms of peace with her foes. On the
tenor of the reply depends to some
extent whether the informal peace
movement, inaugurated a week ago,
can be pursued further.
The inquiry is not formal one, but
was an effort to determine whether
Germany's reported willingness t.
talk peace was based on fact.
The story of the seven-days-of-peace
talk as told by some of the princi-
pals, substantially is as follows:
Talk Starts in Washington.
Saturday-Count Won Bernstorf.
German ambassador, dined with
James Speyer the banker, at the lat
ters residence in New York. Oscar
Straus, American member of The
Hague tribunal and former cabinet of
ficer. was present. The ambassador
said that while he had not had ad-
vices from his government since
leaving Berlin, he recalled CONVEX
sation with the imperial chancellor in
which the latter said he believed the
emperor would be willing TO discuss
peace through mediation. Ilr. StraGS
asked and received permission to re-
peat the conversation 10 Secretary
Bryan at Washington.
Sunday-Mr. Straus conferred with
Secretary Bryan The secretary lator

sador's consent to forward a report
to American Ambassador Gerard for
discussion with the German Foreign
ONCE. Mr.. Straus was advised 10

ish and French ambassadors here. lie
saw each that day.
Monday-The German ambassador
reached Washington and conferred
privately with Mr.. Bryan. The sec
rotary cabled Ambassador Gerard to
convey to Emperor William an in
quiry from the American government
as to whether he desired to confirm
the statement reported to have been
made to the imperial chancellor.
Copies OF this cable were sent 20
Ambassador Page at London and Am
bassador Herrick at Paris. Mr..
Straus talked with the British and
French ambassadors, both OF whom
said they could make no definite state
ment without Instructions. Both the
French and British ambassadors re,
ported the incident unoflicially TO
their offices.
Tuesday-Secretary Bryan told the
British ambassador, Sir Cecil Spring
Rice, what had occurred and learned
the ambassador had made inquiry Of
his government to learn its attitude
toward peace.
No Temporary Truce Desired.
Wednesday-Sir Edward Grey dis.
cussed with Ambassador Page the IT.
quiry from Secretary Bryan. Sir Ed
ward cabled the British ambassador
here that as Great Britain. France
and Russia In the preceding week had
agreed not TO make peace without
common consent, the position Of the
Triple Entente was unanimous. Sir
Edward said the powers wanted no
temporary truce. but a permanent
peace in Europe 10 that the world
would be insured against the sudden
outbreak of war after Germany had
recouped herself and that before the
subject could be considered seriously
definite terms would have to be sub
mitted.
