a full-hedged eclat. in which the prince
layed a sorry role, and a Cabinet crisis
eneued, which was not settled until
Ferdinand had made the fullest apol-
ogics md amends.
While Ferdinand was, under the cir
cumstances, glad to see the Bakhmeuehs
90 when they were appointed TO Japan,
although he lavished honeyed phrases
upon both of them at the farewell benefit
which he gave in their honor. yet their
departure was regretted by nearly every

been when they left Toxic, for the

been subscribed for the purpose in Rus

George Bakhmetieff Has an
American Wife, Through
Whom He Is Related
to Admiral Dewey.

George Bakhmetleff. who was gazet-
ted on Monday last at st. Petersburg
to succeed Baron Rosen as Russian AM
bassador at Washington, is an old frienq
of this country, where he spent severai
wears in a minor diplomatic capacity.
and incidentally found a very clever and
brilliant wife.
That he expected at the time to re-
turn here some day or other as chlet
of the mission to which he was then
attached is shown by the fact that he
has always retained his membership In
the Metropolitan at Washington and is,
so far as l am aware, the only foreign
ambassador accredited to the United
States government who can boast of
having been an American clubman at
the time of his appointment.
Emperor Nicholas's new representa-
tive at Washington is a considerably
younger man than either of his two
predecessors, Baron Rosen and Count
Cassini. He also differs from them in
being more active and in possessing
greater degree of initiative and energy
Count Cassini never took the slightest
trouble to conciliate public opinion dur
ing the years that he spent in the United
States. In fact, he displayed so cynical
an indifference to American views and
preiudces in his official relations and
IN his domestic arrangements that at
the outset of the war in Manchuria
popular sympathy in this country was
wholly with Japan. 1t was not until

sourcefulness and initiative the present
representatives Of Great Britain. Ger
many and France. Possessed of thor
cugh mastery Of the English language
and, what is even still more to the point
here in America, Of a ready wit and OF
a keen sense of humor. il is probable
that he will be heard often and gladly
in public addresses and in after-dinner
speeches: that he will mingle freely with
the compatriots of his American wife,
not alone at Washington. but in New
York, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia,
Baltimore and all the other important
cities Of the United States, and that he
will thus be able to explain away much
that has arisen to create prejudice In
America against the land OF the Gar

BARON RoSEN POPULAR.

Baron Rosen was an entirely different
type of man. and has terminated his
mission to the United States in the en-
ioyment of universal respect and regard
on the part of the people of the United
States. He, like George Bakhmetieff,
was no stranger when he presented his
credentials to President Roosevelt, in
1905 For he had at an earlier stage Of
his career spent several years in New
York as consul general, and had like
wise come prominently before the public
here as one of Russias two plenipoten-
tiaries at the peace conference at Ports
mouth, n. H., where he and his coll
league, Count Sergius White, succeeded
IN wrestling such concessions from Japan
as to rob her virtually of most OF the
fruits of her victory.
During the remainder Of his stay mere
however, he suffered very seriously from
I'll health, which prevented him from cul-
t,vating the acquaintance and the friend

he was living, and which interfered with
