FOREIGN RELATIONS

The steamship Robert Dollar sailed
from Rio de Janeiro, Wednesday, flying
the British colors. Two weeks ago the
Robert Dollar made application at Rio
for transfer of Canadian registry to
American, under the registry law of
August 1S. The British Consul protested
and the transfer was refused. The incl
dent derives It's Importance from its ex-
preston of the British attitude toward
President Wilson'S plan for the purchase
of foreign steamers to be operated by
government controlled corporation. The
President, on Thursday, said that the
ship purchase bill would not be taken
from the Administrators legislative cal
endar.
1t was announced in Washington that
President Wilson had determined to toler-
ate no longer the offensive public COM
ments of foreign diplomatic representa-
tives concerning matters of domestic com
cern. This announcement relates particu-
larly TO the alleged statements of Sir
Lionel Garden, former British Minister to
Mexico, criticising our Governments Mex
lean policy: of Baron Wilhelm Won
Schoen, of the German diplomatic serv-
ice. who Is said to have declared that
japan wants war with this country: and
of a. Rustem Bey, the Turkish Ambas-
sador to the United States. whose refer
ences to lynchings in the Southern States
and water cures" in the Philippines
were not kindly received at the White
House. 1t is believed that the American
Government has asked for Rustem Bey's
recall, or will do so. and that II will
take official action with reference to the
Won Schoen and Garden interviews.
Russia and Sweden this week informed
Washington of their intention to sign
peace commission treaties with the United
States These treaties will be like those
which have been negotiated with Great
Britain. France Spain, China and 20 other
nations Of the world, and which provide |
that all disputes which cannot be set |
tied through the ordinary diplomatic |
channels shall be referred to n perma- |
nent commission, and that hostiites |
shall not begin within year after such |

Were given out this morning;
The maids did all that color choose
To favor their adorning."

With shades a trifle duller.
That with this pink and eiderdown
win kin all rival color"
again I'm very sorry. dear
Yes, honestly and truly
Since naught but gray is left me
here;
All have been taken duly"
''Ah. me-" she cried. "how can go
To earth with such a dowry?
Blue skies serene | ne'er shall know
My skies be gray and lowry.
"With dull gray eyes"-Dear Maid.
tut, tut,
"Men's hearts--how shall | win
them"
That's easy, dear; I'll simply put
A dash Of the devil in them.
And since that day the eyes of gray
With hazel touches hazy,
From peace have lured mems hearts
away,
And left them well-nigh crazy.
