KAISER'S VIEW OF PEACE AS TOLD BY HIS SPOKESMAN Francs Must F.ret Bend the Knee, New Cermsn Envoy Says. Until France and her allies admit that France has been beaten by Oor ninny the Inst named country will con tinue to tight This statement Is cred Ited by the New Vork Times to flerr U. von Eckhardt, the newly appointed Gorman minister to Mexico, lis said that the aduilsslou by France that she nail been beaten was the first condi tion of peace, so fur as the German government was concerned. lien- vou Eckhardt told of conver sation he bad with the kaiser two days before he left Herlln for New York. The knlser. bo snld. displayed tho keen est desire that the world should un derstand that It was Itussla and France and not Germany that had suited the wnr and that It was Itussla and France who had thrust the sword Into Germany's hands. "The euin-ror," snld Ilerr von Eck hardt, "Insisted that be bnd done all thut was In his power to maintain peace In Europe. He was deeply seri ous. However, tho kaiser Is not alarm ed. He Is confident that victory will be with German arms. "The German army was In Brussels ut tbe time when 1 bad this talk with the kaiser, yet be was not carried away, by that fact Instead be Insist ed that the situation was very serious, and be told me that everything he bad done was with tho thought of peace In mind and that, while be was working with this end In view, Russia mobilis ed and France bad begun hostilities at Nuremberg and bombs had been thrown. He holds Russia aud France responsible for this conflict and the reason thoso two countries wanted wnr was because tbey did not wish Germany to play a too Important role In the world." With reference to the atrocities that hare been blamed on tbe Germans, Ilerr von Eckhardt said he bad seen no proofs of them. "What about the possibility of an early peace In Europe?" be was asked. it Is tho wish of Germany, as well as of the whole world," he replied, that there shall bo pence. But It must come, and this I assure you, with hon orable conditions for the German em pire. First and foremost tbe most Im portant condition of peace must be tbe acknowledgment that we are victorious In Franca, that we have won In Franca Until It Is admitted that Germany has defeated France Germany will con tinue to fight "Furthermore, when peace Is restor ed It must be with tbe guarantee that never will more wars come."
