Dr. Alfred Ztromermann. the Ger man foreign minuter. In an Interview asterted that. In bis opinion, the en tent reply lo Ireldrnt Wilson peao note barred the possibility for the pres ent of further German step to bring about peace. In particular, be say. It precluded any direct announcement by Germany of her peace conditions In anitwer to the term set forth In tbe entente note. Dr. Zlmmermann asserted, however, that tbe answer of the entento to the prenldent did not finally and com pletely close the door to later efforts for peace before one side or the other was completely crushed. The foreign minister said the Ger man terms were such that the unso licited promulgation of them in their moderate details, after what be cbar actertted as the aspiring program of conquest and dismemberment outlined by the entente, would be interpreted by the entente powers as a sign of weakness and of a desire for peace at LONDON.

To Jesse Pome roy, who has been for 41 years In soli tary confinement In tho state prison at Charlestown, were granted equal privileges with other prisoners by the State Executive council today. Con victed of murder at 15, Pomeroy two year later was locked up in a cell lighted from a window In the celling, so that be might not gaze on his fellow-men. He was exercised apart from the other prisoners and barred, as far a possible, from human companion ship. Two years ago the sentence was enforced less rigorously to accord with modern Ideas of prison reform. He received more opportunities for exer cise in tho prison yard and was al lowed to attend church services twice on Sundays, sitting apart from the other men. WASHINGTON. Jan. 19. Strom; opposition was developed today In naval circles to the appointment of Dr. Cury T. Grayson, the president's personal aiue ana pnyslclan. to be a medical director with the rank of rear admiral. The doctor is very uonula in official circles and the oposltlon is not based on any criticism of his ability. It arises entirely from the fact that he is promoted from far down on the medical corps list to second In rank 'n that corps, jumping over the heads of many officers senior to him. He is promoted over the heads of 114 offi cers In his particular corps, 14 passed assistant surgeons. So surgeons and 15 medical Inspectors. However, officials at the Whl'e Hons? declared that tho president had made the appointment a personal one and that he would Insist upon confirmation.

For the first time in more than a hundrod years a president of the United States appeared In the senato chamber to discuss the nation's foreign rela tions after the mannor of Washington. Adams nnd Madison. Tho effect was td leave congress, all official quarters and the foreign diplomats amazed nnd bewildered. The president himself, af ter bis address, said: 1 have said what everybody has boon longing for, but thought impos slble. Now It appears to be possible." The chief points cf the president's address were: That a lasting peace In Europe can not be a peace of victory for either side. That peace must bo followed by a definite concert of power to assure tho world that no catastrophe of war shall ovorwholm it again. That In such a concert of power tbe United SlatCB cannot withhold Its par ticipation to guarantee peace and Jus tice throughout tho world. That beforo n peace Is made the United States government should. frrjikly formulate, the conditions upon which It would feel Justified In asking the American peoplo for their formal and solemn adherence.
