KING EDWARD IS FOR PEACE.
In reply to an address yesterday from
the delegates to the Seventeenth UD-
verssl Peace Conference, King Edward
made a strong appeal for peace, in which
he said:
"There is nGthing from which de-
rive more qualification than from the
knowledge that my tff RS in the cause
of international peace have not been
without fruit, and consciousness Of the
generous appreciation with which they
have been received both by my own
people and those of other countries.
''Rulers OF states can set before them
selves no higher aims than the promo
ton of international good und' rstand-
ing, and cordial friendship among the
nations of the world. 1t is the sureet
and most direct means by which human
ity may be enabled to realize Its nOblesl
ideals, and It's attainment will ever be
the object of my constant endeavors.
More than 100 societies, representing
sixteen countries, are in attendance.
Edwin Meade aud Benjamin +. True
blood are among the prominent Ameri
cans present. The meetings are held 10
Canton Hall, in London.

DEATH OF MYRON II. rlcCoRD.-

Colonel hlyr"n H. McCord. collector
of customs for the port of Nogales, died
in Phoenix on Monday from Bright's
disease, with which he was stricken
several months ago.

in Arizona for fifteen years. Coming
from Wisconsin, from which state he
served rs congressman for six years,
he soon took front rank in territorial
affairs, and filed many positions of
honor and trust with dignity and cred-
it. While serving as governor in May,
1898, he resigned to accept a commits
sion as colonel, rendered him by Presi-
dent Mckinley, and took command of
the First regiment Arizona volunteers,
in the Spanish war. At the
close of the war Col. McCord was ap-
pointed United States marshal for Ari-
iona, which position he flied for two
or three years and then resigned. Two
