may not be announced.
There has been discussion in official
quarters of individual names The Sc

OF the British delegates-largely be-
cause of his service in negotiating the
Olney-Pauncefote treaty-has led 10 the
mention of Mr.. Olney's name as pos
sible American delegate. Another
mentioned is that Of John Bassett
Moore, Assistant Secretary of State un-
der Judge Day, and one OF the moving
figures in the recent peace negotiations
with Spain. Mr. Moore's name comes

that IL would be agreeable 10 the
friends of Archbishop Ireland If that

ed. At first IL was thought that Am
bassador Charlemagne Tower might be
designated to go from St Petersburg
to attend the congress, but this may
be given up as appearing rather
perfunctory recognition of the Cars
invitation.
The British delegates have not been
officially announced, but Sir Julian
Pauncefote will be one Of them, and
the other may be even higher rank
than Ambassador. In case the Conti-

have been former ministers of foreign
affairs and heads of cabinets. In that
event it H. surmsed in unofficial but
Trustworthy quarters that Sir Julian's
associate at the congress might be
Lord Rosebery. who headed the lib
eral ministry when Gladstone put
aside the leadership.
