GERARD WILL HAVE
AN ARMED ESCORT
< 3 *1 t SS . . , i
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 8.—
A Berlin dispatch of today's date
says that official notification being
assured for the safe conduct of
Bernstorff Gerard’s passports will
be available. This, according to
Secretary Lansing removes any
question as to the location of Am
bassador Gerard.
Today the anxiety of the State
Department was somewhat height
ened by a telegraphic advice from
Willard at Madrid that the Gerard
dispatch came via Berne from Ber
lin and not from Berne direct. This
made the whereabouts of Gerard as
indefinite as ever.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 8.—
The French government has noitfied
the United States that it will guar
antee safe conduct to Ambassador
Bernstorff through the war zone.
Similar action is awaited from
Great Britain.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. S.—
Gerard personally advises the State
Department that the German gov
ernment lias been awaiting only the
advices of the official safe guarding
of Ambassador Bernstorff before
handing him his passports and that
they will be instantly available.
Moreover the German Foreign Mi
nister in a personal call upon
Gerard asked him how he wished to
leave Germany and upon his being
informed that the former American
legate desired to leave through
Switzerland with his staff, he was
told that he would be furnished
with a military guard and a special
train to take him to the Swiss
border. Gerard returned thanks
for these courtesies.
