 Secretary oi State Robert Lausing has devoted his time since Che receipt of che newspaper copy cf Che Ger. man reply 60 the iast American note exclusively. and lt may Do that he win abandon a contemplated grip to Cor nish Co sec thc President. YesSer- day he talked wisa the President over the phooe for nearly an hour, and he has sent several special letters and a whole library of references.
 The President is expected to return to Washington soon Co confer with his Cabinet members.
