Washington. Dec. 1O.-Gerard "A
Lowther, whom the chances seem tc
favor for the appointment of British
ambassador to the United States, is
already well known in Washington,
and his selection to succeed Ambassa-
dor Durand would in all probability
meet with favor in the eyes Of this
government Mr. Lowther, like so
many others who have occupied diplo-
matte posts here in late Years. has an
American wife. She was Miss Alice
Atherton Blight, daughter of Atherton
Blight Of Philadelphia. and was one of
the handsomest girls in the exclusive
Newport circles. Their marriage took
place in London last year.
Mr.. Lowther was born in 1858 and
is regarded as one of the ablest of the
younger British diplomats. His rise
in the diplomatic service, which he en-
tered in 1879, has been rapid. He is
at present the British minister at
Tangier. In 1899 he was appointed
secretary of the British embassy at
Washington. Previous to coming here
he had occupied diplomatic posts at
Madrid, Paris, Constantinople, Vienna,
Sofia, Bucharest, Toxic and Buda-
Pesth. After leaving Washington he
was for three years the British min.
lister to Chile. During his residence
in this country he became very pop
ular in society, and hardly an import
ant entertainment was given in Wash.

not present He is remembered as a
big, blur, blond Anglo Saxon, as fond
of sport as of society, and a particu-
