From Kaiser to End War;

way back from Germany viii lay be.
fore President Wilson request that
the president use his good offices in
suing for peace with the allies
Germany has definitely decided to
apply to President Wilson" the ar
ticle reads, TO use his good offices in
suing for peace with the allies. This
was learned today from sources in a
position to have absolutely trustwor-
thy information on these matters.
ut is understood that Ambassador
James w. Gerard, who is on his way
over here, will lay the kaiser's request
before President Wilson within week
and it is a fact, however positively
it may have been denied officially,
that the possibility Of President VIII
son acting as mediator has been dis
cussed by German officials with Am
bassador Gerard. 1t is, therefore, by
no means surprising that the reports
now take definite shape in connection
with Mr.. Gerard's trip to this coun-
try"
Ambassador Gerard IS on board the
steamship Frederick VIII due in New
York about Tuesday next.
