BRYCE AT THE WHITE HOUSE
New Ambassador from Great britain
Formally Presented to Pres
tdent Roosevelt.

WASHINGTON, Feb 25.-James Bryce,
ambassador from England, was formally
presented to President Roosevelt today by
Secretary Root.
Ambassador Bryce made a short address
regarding his appointment IN which he
said King Edward wanted the present cor
dial relations between England and the
United States strengthened.
Said Mr.. Bryce:
No one can be moro sensible than I am
Of the responsibility which such a commits
great task | may feel myself to be, 1t
shall be my constant effort to discharge 1t
in the spirit which his majesty has indi-
Gated to me and in which my three last
predecessors, all distinguished men and true
friends to the United States, sought TO
fulfill their duties.
1t has been my good fortune to have
been frequently in this country as private
traveller and student of its Institutions TO
have been received in It with unfailing
kindness, and to have learned, not only Ia
admire the untiring energy and the intel
leCtual ardor of its inhabitants, but also
to appreciate their devotion to the cause
of moral and social progress and their
passionate desire to make the lives of the
people worthy of the material blessings
which Providence had bestowed upon them
with so bountiful hand.
l may perhaps be permitted to add that,
in expressing my sincere respect for you
personally | am expressing the sentiments
orally.
The president responded as follows:
The excellent relations which have SO
long existed between the governments OF
the United States and of Great Britain
offer a conspicuous assurance that in the
fulhllmenti of the important missions with
which you are charged you will find agree
able the task of contributing to the main
tenance and strengthening of these rela-
tons. The responsibility which rests upon
you in this regard rests no less upon the
officers of this government with whom you
will have intercourse.
The aims OF the Anglo-SaXon race, wher-
ever established throughout the world, are
akin, and in the furtheranCe Of the great
principle of representative government and
of that community of material interests
whereby the most complete stability, indi-
vidual development and national prosperity
may be achieved. In coming among us
you but transfer your life work to new
fields of practical opportunities like those
for which you have labored earnestly and
hOnOrably through a useful lifetime, and
trust the continuance of your efforts
in the mission to which you are called
will be as cOngenial to you as they are
acceptable to us
For yourself. l beg to convey to your
hOnored sovereign my cordial wishes fOl
his personal welfare and for the prosperity
Of his country and people.
