Taft Makes Public HiIl's Letter and
His RePly-State Department Is-

Washington, d. C. - Diplomatic
sensation was caused here when it
was announced that David Jayne Hill,
ambassador to Germany, had resigned
mis- post. This unexpected develop-
ment came with double force follow
ing, as it did, upon news flashed from
Berlin and denied at the Germany en-
bassy here-that Ambassador Berns-
dorff had resigned as Germany's rep
resentative to the United States.
The state department gave no ex-
planation other than the fact that Mr..
Hill wishes to retire and that the
president had accepted his resignation
with regret. The German embassy
denied that Won Bernsdorff had re-.
signed and refused to discuss the re-
port further.
Letter Made Public.
President Taft made public Mr.
Hills letter of resignation, and his
reply, in which he says he accents
the resignation with reluctance. The
resignation of Ambassador Hill is he
lieved to have connection with the
reported resignation of Ambassador
Won Bernsdorff, which was cabled
from Berlin.
1t is believed in diplomatic circles
here that Won Bernsdorff has failed
to please his government in the pot
ash negotiations.
On the other hand, friends Of the
ambassador in the state department
said that the resignation had nothing
TO do with the potash question and
that Mr.. Hill in accordance with the
usual custom, handed in his resigna-
ton to a new administration. He
was appointed ambassador to Ger.

The many great benefits conferred
upon the people through the medium

evident that the utility of a well adj
ministered health department is be-

must be resident physicians of the

no funds have been set aside for their
use except the insignificant amount of

know . mere bagateIle.

attended, and a gratifying interest

have done much to stimulate and en-

cause of insufficient appropriations
and this fragrant defect should at this
