Washington. March Col. e.. NJ.
House, who returned yesterday from
Europe, is understood to have told
President Wilson today that he found
no more prospects of peace during his
recent visit to the capitals Of bellig-
erent nations than he did on his visit
last spring.
Washington, March Col. E. M.
House, who returned yesterday after
visiting Berlin, London and Paris as a
special envoy of President Wilson con-
ferred with h president this morning
and told him of the results of his mis-
sion. He plans to remain acre until to-
morrow and then return to New York.
Colonel House today parted ques-
ton as to the status of the armed shin
controversy with the statement that
those in Washington knew more about
he subject than he did. He abso-
lutely refused to discuss any pending
diplomatic questions or to comment on
the foreign situation.
When Colonel House left for Europe
reports Were persistent that he went
abroad to investigate the peace situa-
ton. but that was emphatically denied
by both President Wilson and Secre-
tary Lansing.
1t was understood today that Colonel
House expressed great admiration fol-
the way American diplomats abroad
were carrying or their work. He told
the president in detail about the state
of public sentiment in Germany, France
and England, n is understood to have
had much to say on the feeling in Ger
many in support of the submarine
policy.
The president and Colonel House
talked SO long this morning that thu
president was 40 minutes late keeping
his first engagement at the executive
offices, a very unusual proceeding fol-
