modest house built in brick in Eng

LITTLE CHANCE OF
IT BEING AVERTED
Say Senators After Two Hour
ConferenceW With President
at the Capitol.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. g
When President Wilson left the Capi.
tol tonight after two hours Of confer
ences with members Of the Senate,
one Senator who had talked with him
said break in diplomatic relations
with Germany practically was GER
tain.
The President himself told the news
paper men only that he had come UP
TO swap views" and declined to say
whether anything would be done TO-
night.
As the Senators passed in and out
of the conference room, those in the
halls caught glimpses Of an impress
sive scene. The President. seated,
was doing most OF the talking, and
about him stood a solemn group with
folded arms and bowed heads.
Three propositions. ii was said, were
discussed in the conference. They
we're:
To break OF diplomatic relations
with Germany and give Ambassador
Bernstorff his passports tomorrow:
To walt until some overt act had
been committed against the rights OF
the United States by Germany before
taking any action.
To re-define this governments posi-
ton in the light of Germany's ruthless
submarine campaign.
There was generally discussion OF
all these plans" said one Senator
But in my judgment the opinion OF
the majority was to break relations at
once and give Bernstorff his passports
tomorrow"
The President was asked II he con
,emplated addressing Congress.
"Oh. that was not discussed at all,
he said.
'"rhe President was very careful not
to state specifically what he had In
mind" said Senator Overman.
Done Nothing Yet.
Senator Fletcher said the President
had as yet done nothing, but came to
seek the advice of Senator's as TO what
he should do. He said It was not
clear in the Presidents mind whether
the American government should pro
ceed on the assumption that Germany
having given pledges for restricted
use of her submarines. would stand BY
those pledges and not take any aC
tion until Germany violated them; OF
whether summary action should be
taken in the face of a note which an
nounced at 4 o'clock one day that Ger
many would begin unrestricted war
fare at midnight.
Senator Fletcher said the sentiment
of all present was that no more conf
munications should be sent TO Ger
many, whatever course is pursued. He
said many senators favored breaking
off relations, but he added that 1t
would not be correct to say that the
majority favored it Immediately.
An hour after the presidents con
ference with senators at the capitol,
a senator said the president had left
them with the suggestion that there
should be a nights reflection and no
action by word or deed before Mon
day. ..
Immediately after cabinet meeting
lasting two hours and a half President
