GERMANY'S REPLY
AWAITS KA|SER'S
APPROVING WORD
Continuance of Harmonious
Relations Between Nations
in Enperor's Hands.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-Proof
that the kaiser personally will have
the final word in deciding Germany's
reply to the Wilson protest against
submarine warfare reached here to-
day in the report from Berlin by Am
bassador Gerard that the note was
practically complete but held up
awaiting the rulers return to the
capital.
This confirmed American officials
belief that il harmonious relations
between the two countries are to con-
tinue the kaiser himself will have to
preserve them. Unofficial reports tell
of growing bitterness against America
in the German newspapers and among
officials generally. These views are
thought to reflect the sentiment of
the Berlin foreign office, which has
prepared a reply, according to the
best information obtainable, recogniz-
ing Americans right to protection,
but, In effect, declaring the kaisers
submarine warfare against belligerent
merchantmen. Germans business, and
hers alone.
The kaiser, however, will have the
ences in this country have been ad-
dressed to have such concessions
made as will satisfy the United
States.
1t is already certain that Germany
will not take the responsibility of
the breaking off of negotiations with
this government by a belllgerent re-
ply. The tone is to be polite and con-
ciliatory. according to the United
Press correspondent in Berlin, and
all Information reaching here sus-
tains this expectation. Even though
the present draft were approved the
officials are hopeful that it will not
be, it would be hard for the United
States to frame an ultimatum on it,
according to the facts so far known,
as 1t will make concessions of q ma
terial character.
1t is anticipated, therefore. that
the German communication will re-
quire serious consideration by the
president and his advisers before any
further steps are taken. Persons
close to the executive say he has not
changed his ideas in the slightest
and still insists that Germany must
meet Americas views. If the Ger
mans fall back on legal precedent as
a reason for refusing to do certain
things. 1t is admitted, however. that
1t will be hard to justify any Amer
lean action based on moral and hu-
manitarian grounds alone.

of a permanent committee, and it was
decided to arrange for Immediate ser
vices in the various churches, antici-
patory of the coming of Mr.. Sunday.
In all of the Sunday campaigns
about one or two years are consumed
in getting the church workers inter-
ested in the coming campaign and in
prayer meetings for the success of the
former baseball players revival
efforts. AS some of the clergy appa-
rently believe Newark hafd city 10

An open campaign is also being
planned for next summer. This will
be under the direction of Clarence H.

himself any harm.
He appeared before Judge Dolan in

his highly nervous condition caused

boy was ordered to the House of De-
tention for time, however, and Court
Officer Xavier Del Nagro was taking
the boy away when the lad bolted and
ran down two flights of starts before
being captured.
This time he was locked in the

him in a side room with his necktie
