Secretary Baker has submitted the

under General Pershing, and that leg.

Reports and speculations purporting
to outline the part which Col. E. M.
House will play in the peace negotia-
tions between the government of the
kaiser and those countries now at war
with it are proving very distasteful to
President Wilson.
That the data and information now
being gathered by the President s
closest adviser have anything to do
with pecae movement on the part
of this government is emphatically de-
MED in official quarters.
For the part two years diplomatic
and consular representatives of this
government, aided by private citizens
travelling in Europe, have been gath
ering statistics bearing on the war
ST uation and the steps that will be ne
cessary for this government to take if
order that we may be fortified with
facts and figures to deal with the
trade quotations sure to arise after
cessation of hostilities.
This information, after being re-
ceiVed at the state department, has
been turned over to Col. House for his
perusal and study. He has made use
of such portions of it as he desired and
the balance has been returned to
Washington.
But the United States is not the on

such information. Every European
country at war has been doing the
the same thing, realizing that at its
conclusion efforts will have to be mads
