AMSTERDAM, May 14. Mr, Lansing’s allusion to an AngloAmerican agreement for the settlement of disputes, coupled with his reminder that Germany refused America’s offer of a similar agreement, is causing great uneasiness in Germany. Several newspapers publish the terms of the agreement, pointing cut that as a year is allqwed for settlements, this will possible enable Anglo-Ameri-can disputes to be settled after the war. GERMANY’S GREAT BLUNDER. LONDON, May 14. The “Weekly Despatch’s” New York correspondent says that Germany’s attempt to persuade America to press the blockade question against Britain is regarded as one of the most serious blunders of German statesmanship since the war commenced. President Wilson regards it as a personal affront, equivalent to dictating how America shall manage her own business. It has removed the possibility of a serious Anglo-American misunderstanding in the future.
