DIPLOMATS PLEASED.
Representatives of Foreign Govern
ments Like President Roosevelt.

Washington, Nov. 9.-No class in
Washington took a keener interest in
the election returns last night than the
diplomatic corps. Many. of them made
special arrangements for the receipt
of returns.
AS a rule they were pleased with
the result, as Mr. Roosevelt is pop
ular with the foreign representatives
here.
A well known diplomat said after
it became certain that Mr.. Roosevelt
had been elected:
80 far as the foreign relations of
the United States are concerned, 1
think the election of Mr.. Roosevelt
will be a good thing, and that under
his administration the country will
take a higher place in the affairs of
the world than il ever has. That this
will make for the advancement of
peace there is no question. The
United States has done more to put
life into The Hague tribunal than all
the other powers together, and the
greater the influence of this country
in world politics the more rapid will
be the progress of the world towards
the goal of universal peace"
