SEES THE KING OFTEN
SIR MORTIMER DURAND PREPAR-
ING TO RETURN.

LONDON, May 16.-Sir Henry Mortimer
Durand, the British ambassador to the
United States will sail for New York on
the Cunard Line steamer Campania, leav-
Ing Liverpool May 20. He will be received
in audience by King Edward May IS. The
ambassador has been a frequent visitor
at the foreign office. but he said to rep
resentattve of the eeAssociated Press today
that his interviews there were solely on
matters of small details connected with
official work.
There is not the slightest political i'm
portance attachable to my visits" said
the ambassador There are no special
questions to be settled between America
and Great Britain and no differences
whatever between the two governments.
"As to the peace rumors SO far as
know, there is no indication that either
Russia or Japan intend to ask for good
offices. Personally I do not think it in
the least likely that they will do so at the
present Juncture. or course, it Is known
that President Roosevelt, while not hav-
ing the least desire to assume the role
OF mediator, will not refuse to help in
bringing about peace If asked to do SO bS
both belligerents. The Presidents alb
sence on his bear-shooting trip seemed
good opportunity for me to come over
here on a hurried trip to meet my son,
who was coming from India"

Special Dispatch to The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO, Md, May 16-Mr
Allen w. Mallery and Thomas M. Mohler
representing the citizens of Prince George
county living in the vicinity of Kenilworth
and Tuxedo, came here this morning for
the purpose of taking further action in the
matter of getting rid of a pool room at
Kenilworth. They were disappointed in
not being able to see Judge Merrck for the
purpose of having him reconvene the grand
jury, as the judge had been called to attend
court at La Plata.
Sheriff Middleton was here this morning,
however, and conferred with the two mem
bers Of the citizens committee. A warrant
for the arrest Of the pool room people was
placed in his hands, and he assured the
committee that he would perform his duty.
The Sheriff stated that he had received a
letter from one of the attorneys for the
pool room people, which advised him that
the business conducted at Kenilworth was
lawful enterprise.
The question of appointing a constable for
the Bladensburg district, in which the pool
|. room is located came up before the board
of county commissioners this morning. EX
Constable Rufus Vincent was presented as
candidate by the citizens. Mr.. John Miller,
president of the board of county commits
sioners, said that Mr.. Vincent was a fear
less and efficient officer, and had always
done his duty, but that Thomas H Garri
son had been selected to fill the vacancy.
Mr.. Garrison said he would qualify later in
the day. The members of the committee
were assured that he would do his full duty
in the county in the matter of suppressing
violations of law.
While the members of the committee were
disappointed at not being able to see Judge
Merrick they feel that they have accom-
plished something today, and think the
pool room will be closed in the near future.
Constable Garrison, 1t is stated, will be-
gin his work in the Bladensburg district to-
morrow. In addition to the possibility of
being called upon to make arrests In the
pool room he will pay some attention to
other alleged Objectionable resorts in his
district.

APROFOUND SENSATION.
Announcement of Isthmian
Canal Commission
TO PURCHASE SUPPLIES
IN FOREIGN MARKETS ON AC-
COUNT OF THEIR CHEAPNESS.
Representa- tive Grosvenor's Views,
Which Are Indorsed by Senators
and Others in the City.

A profound sensation was created among
those republican high tariff congressman
who are still in town by the announcement
that the isthmian canal commission had
definitely decided to purchase supplies for
the canal construction in foreign markets,
on the score of getting goods cheaper than
they can be furnished by American manu-
facturers. 1t was the opinion of all the
congressman with whom The Star man
talked today that this move on the part
of the commission is fraught with political
possibilities of momer.., and is certain to
create a stir throughout the country.
One prominent high tariff senator. ex-
pressing his amazement, said he would
have to withhold comment until he had
seen the official Endorsement of Secretary
Taft upon the commissions action. He could
hardly credit the statement that the com
mission proposed to purchase a consider
able amount of supplies abroad discrimi-
mating against American goods.
Another senator who ranks high in the
action as highly unfortunate and certain to
bring the republicans face to face with
the tariff issue in its keenest FORM He
said it would give the democratic party
just the weapon it most badly needed in
It's fight against the protective tariff
system.
