the past week to Washington by code
dispatches.
1t is now possible to tell from this
neutral point the full circumstances
connected with Count AIontgelas' con.
ference with Gerard.
1t was on Monday that he first
preached the subject of a treaty TO be
signed by the American ambassador
Gerard promptly refused.
GERARD CONTINUED FIRM.
Then Montgelas warned him if Ger
many's proposal was not accepted il
would be difficult for Americans TO
leave Berlin. Gerard continued firm
in his refusal.
ON the Wednesday succeeding this
Monday conference. the passports OF
American correspondents We're taken
up by the foreign office, extensively
for a wise, in order trat they might
accompany Gerard on the special train
to be provided by the German govern
ment for the American diplomat and
his staff.
1t was later that the correspondents
heard that Germany intended to hold
them as hostages for the safety Of
ItIHiitll SHIPS Ill american IafDOTS.
CONTINUED HIS EFFORT.
After his first talk with Gerard
Count Montgelas returned again to the
embassy and continued to urge the
signing of a treaty.
Gerard persisted in his .refusal--and
even declined to communicate the Ger
man proposal to Washington unless he
was permitted confidential communica-
n-tpresumably in code). Count
Montgelas refused this permission.
Detailing some of these matters to
Berne newspaper correspondents here
today. whom he received in II body,
Gerard remarked:
II told Montgelas 7 would stay there
in Berlin until kingdom come and not
leave until all Americans were permit
ted free exit from Germany.
PASSPORTS HELD BACK.
It was apparently after these fruit
less interviews with the unyieldins
American ambassador that German po-
lice took up American passports Of
American correspondents, Red Cross
workers and plain citizens. These Am
orleans came to Gerard and told him
unless he asked the foreign office to al
low them to depart on the embassy
train, they would be forced to remain
for probably months.
Gerard promptly communicated with
Count Montgelas. but the correspond
ents and other Americans did not re-
ceive their passports until just four
hours before the embassy tram left
Saturday night.
MESSAGE TO PRESIDENT.
Ambassador Gerard began commun-
icating at once with President Wilson
at Washington, using code messages
for the first time from a neutral point.
Gerard and his party entered neutral
Switzerland trlumphantly - In gala
spirit. The Americans were delighted
to leave the stress and tension OF Ber-
lin for the quiet non war atmosphere
of Switzerland. Only champagne could
do honor to such a celebration as this
leaving behind of Berlin's tension-and
champagne was brought out.
In this the Americans toasted Swift
zerland and her hospitality as they
crossed the border from Germany into
Swiss territory.

day. finishing the first stage of his
journey homeward. The ambassador
and nearly 200 other Americans, in
Guiding his embassy staff, American

citizens, arrived at Zurich last night.
They had intended remaining over in

government, and took an ordinary train
for Berne. The Swiss government ac-

Germany was exceedingly anxious to
obtain re-affirmation OF the treaty of
