His physician thinks, from present indica-

During the night and early today Mr.. Reed
suffered from much pain, but DR.. Gardiner
succeeded in alleviating that, and he ex-
pressed the hope that Mr.. Reed would be
able to be out in day or two. Dr. Gardi-

ExSpeaker Reed had sudden and quite
severe attack last evening. He was pros

TO SUCCEED Won HOLLEBEN.
Prince Henry of Pless Anxious for the
Billet.

BERLIN, December 3.-In the event Of
Dr. Won Holleben's retirement from the post
Of ambassador at Washington, which is
considered possible within a year, Emperor
Williams choice of his successor is Prince
Henry of Pless. The prince returned from
the United States, where he attended the
opening of the new building of the New
York chamber of commerce, keen for the
appoint ment at Washington when vacan-
cy occurs. His desire was conveyed to the
emperor, who approved of it. His majesty
attaches considerable Importance to the
social side of the embassy at Washington,
and considers that the wealthy Prince and
Princess of Pless are especially fitted to
dispense German hospitality at that capital.
The PieSS family is powerful and the mat
ter will not be allowed to rest Prince
Henry of Pless only left the diplomatic SER
vice because of former Chancellor Won Ca
privi's ruling that any one marrying a for
eigner must resign his post. Chancellor
Won Buelow's candidate is DR.. Mumm Won
Schwartzensten, the German minister to
China. Another possibility is Baron Speck
Won Sternberg, German consul general at
at the foreign office, though he is liable to
attack from some quarters, as he is sup
posed to be an unusually warm friend of
the United States. Baron Won SternbergS
friends affirm that President Roosevelt six
months ago expressed a preference for the
baron to succeed DR.. Won Holeben when
the latter is retired. Some such expression
from the President appears to have been
conveyed to this government.
Prince Henry of Pless married in 1891
Miss Daisy Cornwallis-West, one of the
daughters of Mrs. CORVALLIS West, who
was a noted English beauty.

AGAIN IN CONFERENCE
COLOMBIA'S REPRESENTATIVE
MEETS SECRETARY HAY.
Negotiations for a Canal Treaty Re-
sumed-Prospect of a Treaty
Before Christmas.

Negotiations between Secretary Hay and
DR.. Herran, representing the Colombian
government, for a canal treaty were re-
sumed today. The first conference, which
took place early in the morning, lasted but
half an hour, being rather preliminary In
character and intended to pave the way Tor
more formal exchanges. The parties to the
negotiations are naturally ayerse to dis
cussing them publicly at this stage, but it
developed, just as it was expected, that Or.
Herran came into the conference in a more
liberal state of mind than his predecessor
so there Is promise Of a treaty before
Christmas.
Certain formalities are regarded as neces-
Sary before the proceedings reach the point
of signature of treaty. For instance, DR..
Herran is acting far under brief tele-
graphic instructions from his government,
and he will have to be provided with what
are known as full powers in order to
enable him to commit his government.
1t is the present understanding that the
State Department will not require these to
be received in the original by mail from
Bogota, but will satisfy itself with tele-
graphic credentials. Even in that case ow-
ing to the slowness of communication with
Bogota, several days must elapse at the
earliest before the credentials can reach
Washington.
After DIR. Herran's departure from the
StdIe department secretary nay cons ulleu,
In turn, Senator Spooner and Senator Han
ma, in pursuance of his policy of keeping
Congress fully Informed Of what he is do
ing in the canal negotiations, and, as far as
possible making sure in advance of its ap-
proval of the treaty that he expects to sub
nit. 1t is understood that the Secretary
will confer further this subject with
other senators, and with leading represen-
tives, and meanwhile DR.. Herran will wait
until the Secretary has made sure of his
ground and summons him to the State De-
partment, before continuing the negotia-
