In 0omoriam.

D1ed-At his home in the town of
Fahlun, June 10, of pneumonia, John
Ludviek Olson.
Death came after two weeks of very
painful suffering. Everything that
physicians skill, careful nursing and
loving affection could suggest was
done for him, but all in vain.
His untimely death is q very sad
bereavement to his surviving old
mother, whose main support he was.
Being the youngest member of the
family, it was but natural that he
should hold tender place in the hearts
OF his Borrowing mother, brothers and
sisters.
Ooly those, who have experienced il
in their own family, can understand
what it means to watch continually
day and night at the bedside of dea,
one, and with hope and Joy note tie
little improvements and again with
dread and sorrow note any decline
and weakness approach. It is so sac
and heart-rending to the loved one.

1t was comfort to his sorrowin&
relatives, however, that God in hi
mercy gave him the firm belief that b.
was going to have eternal life, wher
he could dwell in peace, while his rea
son was yet sound and his brain no
wrecked with fever. He also was a.

sad farewell to great many of hi

Special Gable Despatch 10 THE Sun,
LONDON, July pa Replying to criticisms
of England's foreign policy made by
Henry Edward Duke, Conservative
member for Plymouth, in the House
of Commons to-day, Viscount Cranborne,
Under Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, said that he was not going to dis
cuss the question as TO whether or not
there was a secret agreement between
England and Germany in reference TO
Portugal. He would say, however, that
the intentions Of the Minister'S were favor
able to Portugal and that country knew it
The dinner in the House Of Commons
last night to the French Senators and
Deputies, he said was an indication of the
growth OF feeling that the reign of force
should be replaced by a reign of law.
As to the Kings visits to foreign SOW
ereigns, Lord Cranborne said he understood
that it was admitted that they had done
nothing but good. He added that so far
as the Kaisers visit 10 Great Britain was
concerned, il did not Immediately affect
the action taken by the two Governments
in regard to Venezuela.
AS TO the question Of the Canadian pre-
ferential tariffs and the German threat of
retaliation, he stated that while his Ma jesty's
Government was anxious to he on good
terms with all other countries, it would
put its Colonies before everybody else.
The House boxed the compass in the
m after of foreign affairs. Mr., John Red
mond, leader Of the NationGists, COM

|. in ba
of the English Benedictnes.
TiscOunt Cranhorne said he regretted
that the Government representations in
the matter had not succeeded, and while
admitting that the English had not been
treated worse than the French orders, he
criticised the French Associations law in a
manner which excited surprise and dis
approval as coming from Minister of the
Crown.
Such an act as the Associations law, he
said. would never have been passed In
Great Britain, and they could not but be
astonished if one might say so respectfully
to neighboring nation, that the French
, Government thought it necessary to in
trod,,ce it,

BERLIN, July 23.--The International
Monetary Commission held its last local
session to-day. The Commissioners leave
for ST. Petersburg on July ~.
The subject of to-day's discussion was
the Mexican proposals for reducing the
fluctuations in the price of silver. While
it was unanimously agreed that the stabii-
ity Of the price of silver in silver countries
would tend 10 the introduction and main
tenance of gold parity to be agreed upon,
it was pointed out by the Germans and
recognized by the American delegates,
that owing to currency legislation in the
United States and its surplus OF silver,
Germany, for years to come, would not be
able to come forward as purchaser in the
silver market.
point was made Of the fact that Ger
many's possession of gold and silver re-
serve is Of value of one hundred millions
more than is necessary 10 meet existing
trade requirements.
President Koch, in closing the session,
said that while the immediate practical
result of the conference, would be small

he reports sent to the United States to the
effect that their mission is regarded as liEely
to prove failure. They point out in par
ticuar the incorrectness of the assertion
that England and France refused TO bind
themselves TO make purchases Of silver.
They say that these Governments were never
asked TO purchase silver. to promote BIZ
metalism or to change the monetary sys-
TENS of gold standard countries.
Moreover. a technical statement issued
tonight expresses qualification at the fact
that the Commissioners have secured in
dorsement at London, Paris, The Hague
and Berlin Of the principle Of uniform ma
tional currency for China.
Asked what probable steps would be taken
TO give effect to the suggestions thus en-
dorsed, Mr. Conapt repled that the matter
will pass into the hands Of the Chinese
Government, which will make proposals 10
the foreign Governments.
