STILL SUPREME
Asquith Says the English Navy 4
Still all .Rlght,

Liverpool, Jan. Prime Minister
Asquith in speech recently before
the Reform club of this city said,
Let me say for once and all that
our navy today is able to maintain
not only for this year, but for years
70 come, our supremacy at sea, and
should the necessity arise, with God
forbid. 1t Is adequate to guarantee
the guarantee the integrity of our
shores. the protection of our COM

years Of liberal administration.

PARIS FR0WNS :.
ON BARONESS
The Morganatic Widow Of
King Leopold Not Wanted
in French Society

0AAoS J0us l.-lNdLuEdlly LQS per.
sonality, history, and future of the
4 Baroness Vaughan. the petit amie''
and morganatic wife Of the late king
Of the Belgians, constitute a subject
which for many reasons, is particu-
larry interesting to Parislans.
Her movements Immediately after
her return to France after the kings
death were invested with as much
mystery as possible. Notwithstand-
Ing the assiduity with which the story
OF her religious marriage with Leo
pold has been printed and reprinted,
public opinion here has not seemed
to accord her much greater respect
than was shown her in Brussels on
her departure. the difference being
tnat. the French had not the motive
or the fancied motive to prompt them
70 anything like positive hostility
such as that which led to the casting
stones tn her direction at the Bel
gtan railway station.
She does not stand before the
French public in q sympathetic light
such as that In which Leopold, with
all his recognized demerts-not ex-
cepting his meanness in money mat
ters-was regarded It Is told of the
King that at the time of his notorious
anair with Partisan vaudeville ac-
tress the concierge of the house in
which she lived and where he was
frequently seen in simple bourgoise
dress. and without an escort of anv
KIND, complained contemputously
that ne had never given her SO much
as two sous of pouborie.
Lacks Attraction for Paris,
Paris as city he preferred above
al others in spite of his protestations
Of patriotic love for Belgium, and the
Parisians were fiattered by this fact
and had every sort Of indulgence in
MS faults, even for that ever-domin-
ant commercial instinct which made
OF MIN anything but truly royal fig
ure.
The struggle which confronts the
Baroness Vaughan for the retention
OF the many millions he lavished on
her awakens here only cold, critical
comment. The baroness even appears
for Paris journalists and their read
ers far less attractive person than
did Nine. Steinheil, probably because
there is not in her case any excuse
Of temperament or passion for the
characteristic features of her career.
At the same time, facts in her history
which seem to demonstrate that in
egoism at least she was fully a match
for her august lover have been dill
gently dug up afresh, and the public
has received them with much eager
ness.
