True SpOrssman.-

When King Edward breather his last
there came to a close the life of a unique
personality He was loved almost univer-
SADLY, first of all as man whose natural
attributes made him dear to the hearts of
his subjects and next as a monarch whose
ability to fulfil the role which he was
called to assume was demonstrated con-
spicuously.

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire
land and of the British dominions beyond

because OF his manner Of life. he lived down
rather unenviable reputation through
long years of more careful conduct and sue

people as almost no other sovereign of
Great Britain, except his mother, Queen
Victoria had done.
Active in StatesmanshiD.
As a statesman he was active and sue
cessful. particularly in the field of for
eign affairs The fact that he was the idol
of the people made him a useful instrument
of the ministry and enabled him at the
same time to WELD morei influence than
had been conceded to the throne in the
past He was an able diplomat and in all
the morei important questions of foreign
policy which came up during his short
reign, he made himself felt.
In domestic politics he was less active
but succeeded in strengthening the position
of the monarchy with the masses, eventu-
ally killing whatever anti-royalist senti-
ment existed at the time of his accession
His influence with his minister in an
advisory capacity was much more pro-
nounced than was that of Queen Victoria,
although his attitude on the political ques-
tions of the day was not defined.
Edward VII assumed the throne on the
death of Queen Victoria >on January %
1901 so that he was king less than ter
years.

Believed That the Captain and Crew
Have Been Rescued.

The fate of Capt. Roland Quillan and
the crew of the schooner Edgar c. Ross

now generally thought in marine circles
that they were taken off the Ross by a
vessel bound to a foreign port and will;
shortly be heard from. A message from

Capt. Pearse noted that the three masts
of the schooner were standing, with all
sails set except the foresail, which had
been reefed but had been blown to pieces.
The foreboom was floating alongside at
taohed to rigging, but the gaff was half
way up the mast. While the decks were

The Dougherty barges Patuxent and
Nanjamoy, two of the smaller inland
freighters of the Baltimore owned fleet
have been chartered by l.. A. Clark &
Son Of this city to LOAD railroad ties at
Alexandria for Philadelphia, and it is ex-
pected that they will arrive at the Vir-

which is at the Alexandria shipyard load
ing ties for New York. will complete her
cargo early in the coming week, and will
sail in tow for Norfolk to join a tow go
ing up the coast. She will take away
over 5000 ties, one of the largest cargoes
that has ever been sent from Alexandria
to the north. The barge Hercules which
was brought from Occoquan to Alexan-
dria several days ago to complete her
cargo of ties. is lying at Shoots wharf
and is loading from railway cars run out
upon the pier. She will be loaded and
ready to sail Monday next. 1t is expected
that shipments of ties from Alexandria

AID NEEDED IN LIBERIA
CONDITIONS REPORTED WITH
SUGGESTION OF URGENCY.
Assumed That United States Govern
ment Is Expected to intervene
Against Pirates.

United States Charge Ellis at Monrovia,
Liberia, has telegraphed the State De-
partment saying the financial situation
and political developments in that coun-
try urgently require assistance from the
United States government. He adds that
conditions along the coast make 1t de-
Sirable, in his opinion, that an American
cruiser be sent to Monrovia.
Although no specific information is al
hand as to what the conditions are that
would make the presence of an American
warship desirab BILE, it is assumed at the
State Department that trouble is being
experienced with the bordering native
tribes. Piracy and general inability to
protect themselves from depredations on
the part of tribes from the Sudan coun-
try might justify the presence of an
American vessel, on account of the moral
support it would give to the government.
The department has not yet decided
whether a warship shall be sent or not.
United States Interests There.
The interest of the United States in
Liberia grows out of the fact that the
territory was purchased many years ago
by American philanthropic societies with
American negroes, and their plans have
been carried out to considerable eX-
tent, the fact being that the country Is
at present ruled by these colonizcd ne
groes or their descendants.
The report of the Liberian commission,
appointed some time ago to investigate
the conditions in that country, is now un-
der consideration in the State Depart
ment. The recommendations of the COM
mission. however, involve important con-
siderations OF policy, and the department
has not yet reached decision on several
OF these points.
