the suggestion that this particular inter-
view was the one which the baron him.
self had been long desiring. until, finally,
the suppliant was ushered into the room
of the ambassador to be treated as an
honored guest-and to be used as merely
the latest instrument of German aims.
Whatever Baron Marschalrs mission to
this. country was. this thing Is certain.
IT had nothing in common with the aims
of German pacificists. Marschall had a
high disdain for the visionariss who pratt
tie of peace while Europe bristles with
bayonets. He was as resolute Tor Ter
many's title for a place in the sun as
every good German rightly is lie was,
more than any other German of recent
wears fruitful in his furtherance or that
title If the mailed fist was sometimes
forgotten in the silken manner, II was
there, nevertheless.
Yet there was something really Hkabie
about this massive-built lawyer with the
criss-cross cuts still on his cheek-a fllty-
year legacy of his old Heidelberg student
DAYS. He had maSterful way with MN,

tact might have turned to the purpose OF
welding closer the relations between MS
own country and that England to whom
his own personal sympathies were many.
Poison Does Its Work.
But it was not to be. The poison that
had worked in the veins of the two peo-
pies since that January day sixteen years
ago when the kaiser was closeted with
his high servants of state concocting the
telegram which first made Englishmen
aware Of the German menace had gone
too far His was to be the hand which
dealt more than one rebuff to the work
ers for an entente.
Although it is to him that this country
owes the extinction of British influence
in Turkey, yet, even Englishmen saw
something to admire in the spectacle OF a
south German attorney lording II by day
over the minions of the sultan. beating
the subtle oriental at his own game, over
riding all other interests in that of his
beloved country, and TRANQUILITY spending
his evening at his club playing chess, III

looking over the untroubled vista OF the
Bosphorus and tending his roses.

Further Complication.

A further complication has been intro
duced into the affairs of this part of the
province by the appearance of Turkish
bands composed of the 'fedais,'' former
ly employed by local branches Of the COM
mittee of union and progress, who are
now engaged in robbing traders and
market folk on the high roads. especially
near Demir-H issar, where there are but
fourteen "gendarmeS.
1t is to be hoped that the authorities
will take steps to rid the country of these
pests, otherwise the non-Moslem popula-
ton, which has suffered most from their
depredations. will be compelled to form
bands in self-defenSe.
According to the infOrmantS mentioned
above, whose estatements are borne out
by other evidence, the committee of union
and progress has practically ceased to ex-
list as political force at Saloniki itself
and in all the western parts of the
province save at Vodena, where it still
has some supporters. East of the Var
dar it holds the town of Sores, always
the stronghold of its most extreme sec
ton, and has good chance of winning
the elections in the sanak of Drama,
where the large Moslem landowners con-
tinue to support 1t. But in all the rest
Of the province it has lost all influence
and prestige.

Proves His Quality.

Baron MarSchall had proved his temper
during his fifteen years sojourn on the
Bosphorus The length of his stay there
is less notable than the dynasty changes
which failed to shake German ascendency
at Constantinople. Under Abdul Hamid
he had been called the Giant of the
Golden Horn a twofold tribute to his
physical and moral stature. He had be-
come a veritable mayor Of the palace
who ruthlessly thrust into the background
the interests of this country in his steady
furtherance of German aims.
Nor was his steady undermining OF
English influence at Constantinople the
only reason for disquiet over his APP
pointment to London. Years before
Baron Marschall had been his kaiser'S
foreign secretary. He was when on
the morrow of the Jameson raid the
kaiser wired his congratulations to Kru-
ger on having defeated the invaders
without appealing to the help of friend
ly powers" If Marschall did not draft
that telegram (Which foreign secre-
tary it was his official business to do) he
is credited with having inspired it (Which
comes to rather more than the same
thing).
But the forewarned was forearmed, and
the general enlightenment as to his meth
DDS that followed the news of his APP
pointment must have pithed them ef-
fectually enough. Baron Marschall re-
sembled Bismarck. IL in nothing else, in
his faith of the value of the press. His
right-hand man at Constanunople had
been Herr Paul Weitz, the representative
of the Frankfurter Zeitung. Weitz acted
as the medium for the sort of news which
Baron Marschall wanted to appear In
the papers OF the continent.

n NE of the prettiest examples
of the wel-known British
practice of appropriation, ex
ercised on every possible occasion,
in all quarters of the world. has re-
Gently been exposed by General A.
W. Greedy.
In January. 1921, Captain Ma

manding the sloop Hero, of ALP
tons then on a sealing expedition
to the South Shetland islands. dis
covered the northwestern part of
the Antarctic continent in about
latitude S IS degrees, longitude w.
SO degrees. Like Columbus, he did
not know that it was a continent
he had found. and, like him, too,
as General Greedy points out he
was robbed of the honor of having
his name attached to the new land
which he had been the first to
visit
While the fleet Of sealers to
which the Hero belonged was en-
gagged. late in 1920 in capturing
seals at the South Shetlands. an
other sharp-eyed Yankee. Captain
Benjamin Pendleton. saw from his
lookout. on volcanic crater. snow
capped peaks far in the south.
Captain Palmer determined to sail
IN the direction Of these peaks in
search of new sealing grounds. The
result Of his enterprise has already
been mentioned-he found the cor
ner of the Antarctic continent
which projects farthest toward
Cans Horn. The distance from the
South Shetland islands was about
70 miles.
CAPTAIN Palmer noted that the
land was mountainous and covered
with snow. He entered several
BAYS and found SEA leopards. but
no seals. or his way home he met

hausen, and communicated to him

promptly adopted by French Off

in the high British fashion. the
name of the discoverer was sum-
marily thrown out and that of the

substituted, and so Palmer Land,
by order Of the mistress of the
seas" became Graham Land"
In the usual way, also. British
writer's have discredited and ig-
nored the work of their country

to give the honor to the Russian
Belling rather than to al

Palmer nor charts his discoveries"
Its new edition, "Americanized for
the United States" admits in two
lines that Nathaniel Brown Palm

archipelago CD which now bears
his name" and then proceeds to
give a column regarding John Bis

in the ousting of the true discov-
erer. An honorable exception should
be made in the case of Dr. Hugh
