Wires Kaiser's Reply To Be
Handed to Him Today.
He Makes No Prediction as to
Germany's Attitude.

Washington. May 4.-Germany's re-
ply in the submarine controversy
probably will not be received at the
state department before Saturday, but
the government expects to receive in
formation regarding its contents to-
morrow.
Ambassador Gerard cal led today
that he is forwarding a report on his
conference with the kaiser at German
army headquarters. This report is
said to contain some sort of an adj
vance summary of the German atti-
tUde.
The ambassador wired that the
note itself would probably be deliv-
cred to him some time today. Off
Gals said it would require several
hours for translation and DECIDING and
that 1T will not be put on the wire at
Berlin until early tomorrow, even if it
is delivered today, making it unlikely
that the full text will reach here be-
fore Saturday.
With his brief message Gerard sent
nothing but brief excerpts from Ger
man press comments. These COM
ments for the most part were not over
ly optimistic.

few inches from the top of the Louisa

early today at two points about nine
miles below this city, but heroic eff

limits now. The east part of Musca-
