ACKEKMAN HERNE, Fut). 12. The German Government intends to delay departure of Americans now in Herlin in order to hao such citizens in hand for retaliatory measures in case America declares war and interns German citizens in the United States. Permission for Americans eventually to dcpait was obtained only by tho slrontf stand of American Ambassador Gerard. From neutral soil today it is possible to reveal the pressure which the German Government brought powerfully to bear on the American Ambassador to force him into sit?ninjr a treaty which would practically guarantee the safety of German ships in American waters. Gerard persistent! v refused. He declined even to com municate such proposals to Washington unless he was granted free dom of confidential communication. NEWSPAPER MEN FOLLOW GERARD Then the American newspaper correspondents ascertained that they were likely to be held hostages in Germany for America's guar anteeing of the German ships' safety. They were finally granted permission to leave with Gerard on the special train, but received their passports four hours before the time set for the departure. JH-UjWCauLontgolaiV' Gerard said -today 'describing his interview with the German Foreign Office attache who put up to him the practical "ultimatum" as to his signing a treaty, "that I'd sit there until kingdom come and not leave until all Americans were permitted free exit." After this the Berlin officials granted passports to those desiring to leave with Gerard. A large number of Americans still remain in Herlin and are anxious to leave, but the indications when the Gerard party left were that they would be delayed days and even weeks. The Herlin Government, fearing that America may declare war, apparently de sires to have a few Americans within Germany on which retaliatory measures might be exacted in case Germans in America are in terned. Meanwhile the Foreign Office is striving to keep America out of the war, but the military party long ago prepared for American hostilities and is only lukewarm in its support of the statesmen in the Wilhelmstrassc. The general feelings of the Americans left in Herlin was ex piessed by the young son of Davison Maddy, "If I ever get my feet on American soil again Til never take them ofL" Gerard appeared worn out today, not only from the journey from Hcrli.i, but from the strain of the past events. He was warmly received by representatives of the Swiss Government and the Allies. 1 Gerard plans to remain here for to Paris, from there going to Spain for the voyage to America. In the meantime he is communicating all details of the past week to Washington by code dispatches. Thec messages earned details of Gelmany's threat to hold Amciic.in nuvvs- papei coi respondents as hostages unless the American Ambassador would si(;n a treaty virtually jjuaiantecinu; that German ships now in Ameiican haihors would j he permitted to leave (icimnn officials dehveied an ultimatum to this effect on Monday through Count Montcclas, chief of the Ameiican division of the Ocimiiti PoreiKti Office GERARD REFUSED TO NEGOTIATE Responding, Gerard refused to negotiate or ofllcially ileal with Germany in any way, elcclarinc he had been ordcied to leave Herlin and that such orders terminated his diplomatic authoiity. Gcrarel plainly told Count MontKelas that if Amencans weie forced to remain in Germany the United States would regard this as cause for war It is now posMule to tell fiom this neutral point the full eiicumstances connected with fount MontKelns's conference) with Gerarel. It was on .Monday that ha first broached tho subject of a. treaty to he Hinncd by the American Ambassador. Gerard promptly jefused. Then MontKelas warned him if Geimony's proposal was not accepted it would be difficult for Americans to leave Herlin. Gerald continued firm in his lefusul. On the Wcdncsduy succeeding this Monday conference, tho passports of American coi respondents wero taken up by the Porciejii Office, ostensibly for n vise, in order that they might accompany Gerard on the special train' to be provided by tho German Government for the American diplomat and his staff. After hh first talk with Gerard, Count Montgclas returned tiRain to tho embassy and continued to urge the signing of a treaty, with tho icsultof Gcranl'it persistent tpfusal. Americans with the diplomatic 'and consular party declared that while Germany was sufferlne; greatly from tho Uritish starvation blockade, tho nation apparcntlyos fur from starvation now. EVery Gcflhan official, they declared, apparently was resolved to continue the policy of unlimited sub markings, come what may. Tho American Ambassador and nearly 200 other Americans,, including his embassy staff, American consular officials und other American citizens, arrived nt Zurich last night. They had intended remaining in that city for a few days, but on learning that the American Minister to Switzerland, Pleasant A. Stovall, had reserved accommodations nt Berno, they left tho special train furnished by the German Government nnd took an ordinary train for Berne, arriving there early today. Tho Swiss Government accorded all possible honors to the recalled enyoy, ncndlnfe military escort. (Judging from the totting dispatch and other messages from.
