Washington, June 14.-President Will
son feels encouraged by reports that
the pending negotiations between Ger
many and the United States probably
will have peaceful outcome. Those
who have discussed the situation with
the President and other officials, in the
last day or two have found a belief
prevalent that the chances for an
amicable understanding with Germany
are much better than they have been
at any time since the Lusitania trag-
edy.
This feeling is understood to be based
on both official and unofficial reports
from Berlin, telling of the favorable
reception there of the American note
and on the hope, too. that the dis
patches carried by DR.. Anton Meyer
Gerhard for Count Won Bernstorff, the
German ambassador here, will i'm

lean point Of view.

 Yesterday it was discovered that owing to a change in the running time of the Louisville and Nashville railroad the Mobile club would be unable to leave Nashville Thursday night and ar rive in Mobile the next day in time for the scheduled game with the Barons. This necessitated a postponement.

The game that will be played Friday will be enc advanced from the next Mobile se- nes in Birmingham and the game scheduled in Mobile on Friday will be played later in double header.
