Is understood to have already indicated
TO President Wilson the terms upon
which the Imperial Government would
have made peace had the Entente not
spurned the offer Of the Central
Powers. Together with the reference
to liberal terms" are understood to be.
messages of German appreciation for
the Presidents peace efforts and hopo
that he may still find it possible to
negotiations.
Secretary Lansing admitted to-day
that many cables had come from NIr.
Gerard. but declined naturally to dis
cuss any OF them. The opinion Is cn-
| tertained in we'll informed Tcuton
circles, however. that Germany does
not expect the President finally to
abandon the American peace manpuyre
So long as there is even the faintcsC
glImmer Of hope to bring the belliser-
ents closer together.
! 1t Is said in German circles, and il IL
indicated that the same news has beet
transmitted from Berlin to Washing
ton through Mr.. Gerard, that Germany
hopes the President will reply to tho
Entente and the Central Powers after

this reply would not appreciably ad-
vance matters much, but it is con-
tended it would at least keep things
going"
Reason for IA Reply.
The Berlin Foreign ONCE IS under-
stood 10 feel that some other commune
cation from President Wilson along tho
peace line IS virtually necessary, az
otherwise neither the Central Powers
nor the Entente will have been made
officially aware OF the answer OF their
enemies to the Presidents initial et-
forts. Berlin, for example. Will NOT
know officially what the Entente id -
the President unless it il communicated
