So serious was his condition last
night that the attending physician re-

Mr.. Meredith was out for his daily

chsise. He seemed then to be In his
usual health.
A ken east wind was blowing and It

son was summoned on Sunday.
The Kings physical Sir Thomas Bar

the feelings of Americans on freedom
OF apprehension from attack, as Is dis
closed in the diplomatic correspond
ence of the State Department during
the year 1905. just made public:s
This Government Is not unmindful
OF the fact that the people of the
United States dwelt in comparative Sc
curity. partly by reason OF their iso-
iation, and partly because they never
become involved In the numerous ques-
ttons to which many centuries OF close
neighborhood have given rise In Eu-
rope They are therefore free from
apprehension of attack which arc. to
so great an extent the cause OF great
ornaments and It would i'll become
them to be insistent or forward In a
matter so much more vital TO the ma
lions OF Europe than to them. New
ertheless II sometimes happens that the
very absence of special interest on q
sub ject enables a nation to make sug-
gestions and urge considerations which
a more deeply interested nation might
hesitate to present. !"
