Former Colonial Secretary's
Words Interpreted Here as
Unofficial Feeler.
SECOND INSTANCE OF KIND
Significance in Fact Stress Is
Laid Both Times Upon Neu-
traIzation of Seas.

Once more there has arisen strong
evidence that in an unofficial way
the German government is putting
forth feelers for peace.
This is the Interpretation placed here
on the letter of DR.. Bernhard Dern-
burg, former colonial secretary of Ger
many, read Saturday night at "a pro-
German mass meeting in Portland. Me-.
in which he discussed possible terms
of peace. The letter laid especial
stress on the freedom or neutraliza-
tion of the high seas.
This is the second time within recent
weeks that there has come out in this
country from high German authority an
outline of the terms Germany would be
willing to consider. 1t is considered
significant here that in both these
sketches of terms. emphasis has been
laid on the naturalization of the seas
Unofficial, Says Embassy.
The German embassy today refused
to give any official sanction to the
Dernburg letter or the terms he out
lined. 1t was stated at the embassy
that the letter of Dr. Dernburg was
not regarded as having any official
sanction that peace terms had not
been discussed with the embassy in
any official communications. that the
German press was not permitted to dis
cuss terms of peace, and that DR.. Dern-
burg was here as the representative e
of the German Red Cross, and in no
other capacity.
Nevertheless. the fact that man of
such high standing at Berlin as DR..
Dernberg is thought here to have should
outline terms in the fashion he has,
and that this should come soon after
the publication of q Well-founded re-
port that this Government had been
given unoffic!ally to understand what
terms Germany would consider, cannot
be looked os an either meaningless OF
accidental. Nor can the fact that stress
is placed on naturalization of the sea.
in both instances be overlooked
Cause For ENCOURAGEMENT.
1t all tends to bear out what is under
stood to be the fact here that feelers
for peace are beng put out from vari.
Gus European capitals, and while peace
may be many months off. it is at least
a cause for some encouragement that
European national leaders are evidently
seriously pondering Oh the end Of the
war
It is not overlooked here that for
Germany to empasize the idea of ncu-
traliza ton of the seas is taking a
shrewd course to arouse support in
this country. That there is strong
sentiment here for naturalization OF
the seas has been sufficiently shown
in various ways since the war broke
out. Undoubtedly, the German gov
ernment realizes this and is playing
to muster support of American santi-
q ment back of a demand which, II il
could be actually effected by an in
ternational agreement. would practi.
cally take away England's naval as.
tendency over Germany.

Prayer Granted.

One of tho prayers granted by Justice
Stafford, who will charge the jury late
this afternoon. reads as follows:
IF the jury believes from the ev1-
dence that at the time of the making of
the promise to marry the plaintiff, the
defendant was of the age of seventy
four years. and by reason thereof in a
weak and enfeebled condition, and was
induced through the art and artif1cc of
tho plaintiff to engage himself to her
ste at the time protesting love for him.
but in fact having no love for him, but
attempting to consummate a marriage
with the defen liant solely for the pur-
pose rf profit, then the jury are in
structcd as a matter of law that If they
lind that by reason of said act and
conduct of plaintiff. said defendant was
fraudulcntly imposed upor. by said
plaintiff, then such conduct on the pa TT
of the plaintiff dcprives her of any
right to recover and the verdict should
b.t for the defendant"
