shape themselves that usual customs may
be followed, but the chances are that few
| of the foreigners will leave Washington
| until quite late, if they go at ALL The de-
parture of the British ambassador and his
family for England next fall causes them
| no especial anxiety over summer plans.
! Mr.. and Mrs. Adam are bound for Eng
| land, however, and sail shortly The Ital-
| ian ambassador has only just returned
| from his country. The German and French
ambassadors also expect to remain In town
| late, coatenting themselves with short
frt tIot ling Ia
| the capital remains interesting as a
news center. The Mexican minister and
| Mrs. Romero have likewise made no plans
| for the early summer, and may be expect
| ed to be found in Washington for some
! time. Minister de Weckherlin is obliged to
forego his usual European trip this sum-
mer. The Colombian charge d'affaires and

for them. The coming of the first Russian
ambassador, Count Cassni, and the mar
riage Of Mr.. de Woiant, the charge DAFT
flares, will keep the land of the car very
prominently to the front in local vision the
coming week The Swiss minister and his
wife are now in New York. That the
young secretaries and attaches OF lega-
tfons may not be able to go this summer
as usual, to the cities by the sea is now a
foregone conclusion. Many of their friends
are so accommodating stay here, too,

disappointed in their annual frolic.
