WASHINGTON, June 24.-The
United States waits in confidence fol
the next German note. 1t is admitted
In official circles that 1t will not reach
here before July 7. the day that Prest
dent Wilson will return from the sum
mer capital In Cornish. There has
been no arrangement to this effect
but German Ambassador Bernstorft
has intimated to Berlin that under the
circumstances the delay will be ap'
.preciated by the administration.
All available information points to
an amicable response. 1t Is deemed
likely that 1t will seek to debate some
of the questions raised by the United
States but on the general suggestions
It IS admitted in official quarters that
Ambassador Gerard has been assured
by chief officials in Berlin that Ger
many hopes her answer will be &C.
ceptable here.
Germany, 1t is positively known,

rine war zone.
The president has asked Secretary
Lansing to keep him informed CON
cerning all developments. He has
agreed that the new note to Great Brf,
tain shall be sent forward as soon as
all questions In dispute can be franz
ed. 1t is understood, however, that
the contemplated enunciation OF
new doctrine of action by this govern
ment shall be deferred until after
the German reply is available here.

guarded. It is possible the German
reply, now in preliminary stages OF
formation. may suggest certain dis
tinguishing marks for vessels carry
ing non contraband cargoes to insure
them against submarine attack.
Chancellor Won Bethlmen-Hollweg
desires Germany's answer to go for
ward to Washington as soon as possi-
BILE.
The German answer. it Is stated,
will mark distinct advance towards
securing the freedom of the seas, i'or-
eign Secretary Won Jagow assured the
