Washington Officials
Hopeful for Peace

Washington. Sept. Is. - Officials Of
the Washington government and diplo-
matists revealed yesterday a feeling Of
expectancy that within another day or
two Emperor william would reply to
the informal peace inquiry made by
the United States week ago.
Administration officials are clinging
to the hope that the answer of the
German government may open the
way for further discussion with Great
Britain, France and Russia Of peace
terms.
Since President Wilson's tender Of
good .officers was made and acknowl-
edged in a non -committal way by Ger
many along with the other belliger-
ents, American diplomats have been
watchfui for the slightest indication
of q readiness to talk peace. The adj
vices which Ambassador Gerard had
sent the American government early
last week-before the inquiry was adj
dressed to him-were to the effect that
overtures of peace were at that
moment inadvisable. On the other
hand, the American government had
before it the reported willingness OF
the emperor to make peace as related
by Oscar Straus after a conversation
with Count von Bernstorff, the Ger
man ambassador.
Mr.. Gerard then was instructed,
