Gerard, former ambassador to Germany, has resigned from the diplomatic service and returned to private lite. i-Iis resignation was accepted some time ago though tnc fact was not permitted to become known until Monday. The resignation terminates an ambassadorial career regarded at the state department as one of the most important in American diplomatic history. Assumin the post at Herlin but ; year before the outbreak of the world war, vir. Gerard was called upon almost from the first to exercise all his abilities to maintain friendly relations between his government and Germany at the samj time that he was caring for the vast diplomatic interests there of the a'lies. Establishing personal relations with the German chancellor and foreign o'lice and not infrequently consulting the emperor himself, the ambassador conveved the energetic protests of the United States without actually impairing his personal ; standing until the time came to de mand his passport. -Mr. Gerard and his staff returned to the United states March 11', aft?r which he was given a liberal allowance of time to prepare his reports of the closing chapters of his mission. When this was done he submitted his resignation, which was u-.-cepted to take effect upon the expiration of the usual leave of absence. He has nct indicated to officials here his plans for the future. EMBRYO OFFICERS FIRE SALUTE OVER GRAVE KVANSVILLL". Ind..
