London Amazed at Three of
the Appointments An
nounced Yesterday.

LONDON, Oct. 6.-Bewilderment is the
word which describes the Englishman's
view of Premier Balfour's latest cabinet
tricks. Especial wonder is expressed
at the appointment OF the Hon. Alfred
Lyttelton, the new colonial secretary:
H o. Arnold Forster. assistant secre-
tary of war, and that of the Hon. An
drew G. Murray. as secretary for Scot
land
All three of these men are Liberal
Unionists, of which group Lord Devon
shire is the nominal head They Joined
the reconstructed cabinet before they
knew that Devonshire had resigned, so
that a further sfategration of the min
istry is still posi- .la. Many are this
morning pointing 1T that Premier Bal
four has again fooled the members of
his cabinet. even as he did former
Chancellor of the Exchequer Ritchie and
Lord Hamilton, when he permitted them
to resign before they knew Colonial Sec
retary Chamberlain, whose views they
opposed had retired.
During the reconstruction of the cabi-
net il was reported that King Edward
was taking an active part In the work
even debating the appointments. 1t was
said that the King was especially op-
posed to Arnold Forster. The new lis
shows that these reports were without

OF JOHN PAUL JONES
Patriotic Societies Propose Purchase of Property in Paris
to Make Search Secretary Moody Interested

ST. Martin The entire square in which
the bones are supposed to lie can prob
ably be bought for $4,000
1t is the desire of American historical

have the buildings on this land razed
and a careful search made for the bones.
II they are found they will be brought to
this country on warship and the square
will be resold If the bones should not
be found, it Is the desire of the admir-
ers of the naval hero that the square be
converted into a park. in which a monu-
ment shall be raised to the Revolution

Congress at the coming session will
probably be asked to appropriate
$3.50. 900 for the purpose of recovering
the bones of John Paul Jones, who is
buried in Paris. and bringing them
back to this country.
Secretary Moody is much interested
in the plan to have the American naval
hero's bones inferred in this country,
and is collecting information concern
ing the place where he is supposed TO
be buried.

Jones is supposed to be under photo

Conditions of Promise.
Attached to the promise We're two
conditions which made its value of
slight account The first was that con-
ditions should be such as to warrant the
safety of Russian interests; the second,
that no foreign power should offer any
obstacle. Either of these may be con-
strued so broadly as to absolutely nulli-
fy the main principle or promise
Nevertheless. the State Department is
hopeful. II Is pointed out that Russia
has so far kept her promises. and dip
lomatically the United States must con-
slider Russia trustworthy until she has
shown herself the reverse. In fact
Russia is recognized to possess a decided
advantage in the situation.
/ The partial withdrawal substantiates
the sincerity of her protestations. white
her permitting tho establishments of two
open ports in Manehuria is a recognition

has all along contended. as well as a
mark OF friendly feeling toward the Unit

NEW SHORT STORIES
King Alfonso and mr. storer.


 Alfonso XII. of Spain may not have acquired as yet quite as much tact as is considered requisite in one whose re- lati9ns are largely diplomatic. but there is no mistaking the keen obser- vatiOn and quick good humor of the boy. which is constantly shown in the actions of the king.
 One evening just before this last of the Bourbon mOnarchs took the oath he was receiving at an informal recep- tion to the diplomatic corps. He was not quite used to the situation. and his manner was a little awkward in meet ing the majority of the representatives of the powers, but when Bellamy Sto- Ter. the American minister, approached him a smile spread over his face. Al fonso had seen more of Mir. Storer than of the majority Of the foreign, repre- sentatives, and those standing near an ticipated some remark in reference to their friendship. But the young king had noticed what none of the others had observed. that Mir. StOrers eye was somewhat swollen and slightly discolored.
 How queer you look"' was the dc cidedly informal greeting accorded to the representative of the United States. What did it;'
 Mir Storer replied that he had been struck by a book falling from high shelf. at which Alfonso said:
 "The weather is getting too nice to stay indoors and read. Come and ride with me tomorrow"
