Washington, April 11.-Investiga-

The news that Ambassador Gerard
would be handed the German dis

press reports.
President Wilson and Secretary
Lansing still are waiting both for the
communication from Berlin and for
further information from other
sources.
Much importance is attached to afti-
davits and evidence gathered by the
American embassy at Paris and due
to reach New York Thursday on the
liner St. Paul.
1t was learned, too, that Mr.. Ian

There is a general understanding,
