sy for the future. It is not d time to speak-it is time to think, to think earnestly and deliberately. It is a time for coolness and self restraint, rather than for surrender to the natural inn pulses which are aroused by great events affecting the national honor. the national duty, and the natural welfare of our country.
 T can only say this, that with the same patience, the same forbearance. the same deliberation and care with which he has met the previous diff culties in our foreign affairs, the pres ident will meet the present crisis. The nation can trust him to act justly and honorably and fearlessly in whatever may lie before us. In his hands the destiny of the United States is sure; the national honor is safe
 We should rejoice" he continued, that in some things at least we can be sentimental in an age when the general disposition of men is to reduce : everything to terms of utility and when the standard of excellence is sought in answering the question 'To what material use can it be put? That question embodies to my mind the general tendency of modern thought toward the various phases of tine re- latonship of man to man and of man to society"

RESENTMENT |S FE[T BECAUSE
 GERARD |S HELD
rReaublican A. p. Leased wIrel

WASHINGTON. Feb. 10-Germany' S delay in permitting Ambassador Ger ard and other American officials to leave the country has aroused deepest resentment here. especially in view Of the steps taken to arrange all possible convenience for the homeward trip of German officials in the United States.
 A dispatch today from American Minister StoyaI at Berne. Switzerland, said he had been informed that MT. Gerard would leave the German capital tonight arriving at Zurich tomorrow. The minister said he had arranged to meet the party at the frontier When the state department closed for the day. however, it was said no further word had been received.
 It was disclosed at the department that an inquiry regarding the delay had been addressed to MT. Gerard through the Spanish ambassador at Berlin. Officials have indicated. how ever. that once Mir. Gerard and his party are safely out of Germany, the United States probably will consider the incident closed.
 Officials are confident that Germany has had in it's possession from the start the fullest information as to the cour- tesies granted former German officials anu AHt At1l4Ao abAi44NAti AO 1tA property in this country. This infor- nation has been sent daily both through the Swiss legation here, repre- senting German interests and the Spanish embassy in Berlin represent ing Ameriea interests. Plans for Count von Bernstorifs departure, the decision not to seize German war bound ships and other developments have been detailed
 The intimaton that MT. Gerard was being detained because Count Von Bernstorff was not allowed to com municate with his government was indignantly received here, Secretary Lansing declaring every facility and convenience" had been placed 1t the ! German ambassa dors disposal
 The United States, officials declare i has gone out of it's way in this crisis : to respect international law and diplo matic courtesy The original message i of recall to Ambassador Gerard on the other hand was sent him direct both by l cable and wireless and no record has ever been received as to whether he re- ceived the wirless message and no date (Continued on Page Tvo)

The Associated Press learns that the AustrO- Hungarian government yester . day instructed the military and other public safety organizations that the greatest possible courtesy should be shown all American citizens in any event and that possible complaints by any American should receive prompt attention at the hands of all author tiles.
 At the American embassy the opinion was expressed this morning that the case looked hopeful At noon the papers published with apparent satis- faction a wireless from New York to the effect that the American govern ment had not taken radical measures against Germany and Austria Hun garian shipping and subjects, reports of which were widespread here. The dispatch in question. which stated that Washington had instructed the Amer ican officials to proceed with caution and courtesy, made the best possible impression.

It is understood in Washington that the German government is forward ing to the United States a proposal that the two governments discuss methods of averting war between them. The method by which this suggestion is being communicated has not been disclosed, but is considered likely that the Swiss government IS acting as the intermediary.
 A desire on the part of the German government that peace be maintained, notwithstanding the rupture of dipIo- matic relations, is said to be clearly defined in the communication, but 1t IS not understood to carry any suq- gestion that Germany intends to modify her submarine warfare. The United States, it is understood, is in- vited by Germany to suggest any steps which it believes would prevent hostilities. The communication had not been received by the state depart ment when 1t closed Saturday.
 The Swiss legation in Washington has been informed that Ambassador Gerard his staff, and fifty American citizens, would leave Berlin Satur- day night by special train for Zurich. Switzerland.
 Arrangements have been completed for the departure from New York on "Wednesday next of Count von Bern storff and his staff on board the steamship Frederick VIII for Chris tinia, Norway.

 WASHINGTON, Feb 10.-State de- partment officials gave no indication tonight that their attitude toward con- Voying American merchant ships or providing naval armament for them has in any wise been altered by the decision of the American line to hold it's vessels in port.
 The department has felt that the question of sailings and armament was for the shippers themselves to meet and there have been no steps to pro- vide conveys. The increasing disloca ton of shipping, however, has caused serious concern here. and there were evidences today that the ultimate pol icy of the government had not been determined.
