KAISER ADVISED TO YIELD (Continued From First Par.? Germany over the question of subma rine warfare. Unless the situation in Berlin wholly changes before the dis patches axe sent, the Ambassador be lieves he will be authorized to reopen Informal discussions with Secretary Lansing to the end that a note may be framed by the German government entirely satisfactory to the United States. So far as the Stat Department Is concerned, formal presentation of the Arabic case to Germany awaits receipt from Ambassador Gerard at Berlin of the German Admiralty report on the destruction of the ship. Dispatches from Berlin tonight said the report might be mad any day or might be delayed a fortnight. In German circles here it Is firmly believed that the Berlin government I. anxious to bring to a quick and friendly termination the whole discus sion over the submarine campaign. The visit of Count von Bernstorff to Wash ington, acting on instruction from Berlin, is viewed as conclusive proof that the liberal element of the German government has triumphed and that every effort will be made to meet the views of President Wilson as expressed in an interview with the Ambassador soon after the Lusltania was destroyed. Even should the submarine com mander attempt to Justify his action, or should no report ever be received from a German commander as to the Arabic, It is believed the German gov ernment will seek to make it clear that, as a national policy, tne wanare against passenger ships has been sus pended. Already offer3 of reparation for American lives with the ship have been taken informally, and Ambassador Bernstorff feels that, barring adjust ment of minor details, the friction be tween the two oountrloa is at an end. Out of the relaxing tension of the situation a new hope for peace in Eu rope has sprung. German observers here have noted that there is a group in each country which sees possibilities of American mediation behind the peaceful adjustment of the American German dispute. With one concession won from the belligerents by diplo matic means the security of the lives Of neutrals on the high seas it is thought possible that other proposals may follow with restoration of peace as their object. The ascendancy of the liberal element in Germany, it Is said, lends color to that view so far as Germany is concerned. Temperature 100 at Albany. ALBANY, Or., Aug. 28. -(Special.)
