orally believed that he favored a note
CT the character which under no cir
cumstances would involve the United
States In grave complications.
Resignation No Surprise.
The resignation of Mr.. Bryan was
expected in Washington. That there
has been serious disagreement be-
tween him and the president, as we'll
as other members of the cabinet, over
the tenor and text of the German note
has been a matter which could not be
kept inside official circles.
Mr.. Bryan objected to the first note
to Germany dealing with the Lusitania
incident. He believed the president
should have taken a less stringent at
titude In the first note, with a view
toward settling the difficulty along the
diplomatic avenues provided under
treaties which he recently negotiated
with Great Britain and France.
Pleads for Pacific Attitude.
In recent cabinet meetings Mr..
Bryan kept up his pleading for more
pacific attitude on the part of the ad.
ministration.
The president allowed him to re-
write part of the second note and in
corporate some of the ideas contained
in his peace treaties.
According to report, some of Mr..
Bryans contributions to the note have
been heavily blue-penciled by the pres

KAISER GIVES PEACE TERMS
Dutch Envoy Arrives in Washington
With German Demands for
End of War;

Washington, June 9.-Germany,
through a special Dutch envoy, is ask
ing President Wilson to transmit pro-
posed terms of peace to the allied
powers.
The envoy is Jonkheer van Gheel
Cildermeister, member Of the court
of Queen Wilhelmina of the Neither
lands and connected with banking cir
cles In Holland.
He came to Washington on Friday
equipped with the peace terms of Ger
many, which that country has been
publishing to the world for months
as follows:
Evacuation of Belgium and North
ern France.
Reconstruction of the kingdom of
Poland.
Freedom of the seas.
"Cession of a strip of Alsace and
Lorraine to France in recognition of
German sovereignty over Luxem-
bourg.
Acquisition of African colonies by
Germany
Restoration to Germany of all
colonies held by that country prior to
the war, with the exception of
Kaio-chau, which is to be disposed of
as Japan sees fit
So far as official action is concerned
it is not believed here that President
Wilson would be inclined to take it,
since he has received no official COM
munication as to Germany's desire for
peace on the terms stated.
