not incorrect TO conclude that the null

For fear Of cipher, the general
gave tantamount terms for each let
ter, and his lordship rewrote them.
Il thought the name st. Jovite would
be as good as any," he remarked.
The rendezvous was carefully
mapped The guard came, and his
lordship rose languidly.
''One thing more" said he. Let the
men go over without arms-if-if you
will be so good"
Il shall consider that" said the gen.
eral.
And when shall the messenger
start?"
Within the hour, if possible" my
chief answered.
AS they went away, the general sat
down with me for a moment, to dis
cuss the matter.

KAISER AND KING EDWARD
Fact That Secretary of the British
Foreign Office Was Present,
Doesn't Count

London, Aug. 17.-''While, not pre-
tending to know what passed at the
conference at FriedrichshOf," said au
official of the foreign office, you can
say that too much significance must
not be attached to the presence of Sir
Charles Hardine, the permanent I'M
der secretary Of the foreign office.
King Edward on every trip he has
made on the continent for the purpose
Of meeting a foreign sovereign has
been accompanied by Sir Charles, and
he is now considered to be necessary
member of the kings party on such oc-
casions.
Again it must be remember that Sir
Charles is not a member Of the cabi-
net and only cabinet minister can
agree to anything in behalf of the
government" This does not of course
prevent the representatives Of two for
eign offices from discussing questions
in which their respective countries are
Interested
