Washington, June 11-Robert
Lansing, successor to John Bassett
Moore as counselor of the state de-
partment, became secretary of state
ad interim when Secretary Rryan's
RESIGNATION took effect. He is
son-in-law of John w. Foster, sec
rotary of state under President Har-
rison, a lifelong democrat, and has
been an international lawyer for
many years.
While there is much gossip al
ready as to the presidents possible
selection for the secretaryship. it is
the presidents plan to make no i'm
mediate appointment. 1t would not
be surprising if he made no change
in the present status of the depart
ment's personnel for two or three
months.
Secretary Franklin X Lane of
the interior department has been
frequently mentioned as possible
successor to Secretary Bryan, but
thebelief exists that he will not be
chosen on account of his Canadian
birth, and the fact that the presi-
dent would find considerable diff

Alaskan railway and other projects
of the interior department.
1t is considered entirely probable
he will make no shift in his cabi-
net at all, but will choose a new
man to fill the vacancy.
In well-informed quarters it is
considered very likely that he will
retain Mr. Lansing as secretary. To
do so would require search for an
other counselor, a post difficult to
fill.
Mr.. Lansing has prepared men,
randa for all important notes that
have gone to belligerent govern
ments since the European war be-
gan, and is looked upon not only as
an expert in internatioal law but
as clear thinker and adviser. For
many years he has served on bound
airy commissions and tribunals. He
is comparatively YOUNG and well ac-
/; quainted with government policies
He has won the admiration of the
president and Mr.. Bryan by his 10y
atty to the secretary of state as his
,, superior officer On many occasions
Mr.. Lansing has submitted memoir
anda expressing views differing
from those of Mr. Bryan, but he has
tactfully avoided embarrassments.

simply. Certainly, however, l have

BRITISH Governments
ANNOUNCEMENT STOPS
RTOTINC

London, June 9.-With the
Governments announcement
that enemy aliens in Great Brit
ain would be either interned or
repatriated, all anti-German riot
ing stopped and the tickle public
attention turned itself to other
matters. With the public clam
Or thus sidetracked, the govern
ment likewise quickly turned to
other matters, and after a day or
two the sudden accleration in
the interment of aliens slack
ened.
The military authorities are
naturally reluctant to have
thrust upon them suddenly any
larger number of interment cases
than can be handed easily in the
camps already established, and
there has been no move to devel-
op mushroom camps which
would soon have to be con-
demned as unfit. 1t is also re-
garded as unwise to permit any
thing in the nature of overcrowd-
ing at camps already in ex-
istence. No steps are to be
taken to charter additional YES
sells for purposes of alien inter
ment.
| SO the actual fulfillment of the
governments promise to intern
or repatriate all enemy aliens is
likely to be realized only after
considerable delay. Such aliens
as surrender for internment are
disposed of as rapidly as posi-
Bile. but there has not yet been
any combing fthe highways
and byways, and only in excep-
tional cases have known Ger
mans or Austrians been called
upon to give themselves up.
A number of men ad women
who are within the possible
scope of the internment order
are being dealt with by the
Emergency Committee for the
Assistance of Germans in Dis.
tress. Those who have thus fal
sought the assistance of this
committee have been mostly wo
men, some of them British with
German husbands. A number
of them are people who wer.
rendered homeless as the result

these homeless ones are not i'm
| mediately required for intern
ment they are given food ant
lodgings in building provided
by the committee and under tn,
nominal supervision of the po
lice.

Was King of Greece
Stabbed By
His Queen?

New York, June S-A Paris cable
to the Tribune gives further details
of the report current there that
King Constantine was suffering
from knife wound. The state
ment is made that the Kings illness
is due to tragic episode which oc-
Cured in April during heated
discussion between the King and his
consort, Queen Sophia, who is sis
ter of the German Emperor.
Notwithstanding her conversion
to the Orthodox Greek Church upon
her marriage, Queen Sophia remains
passionately devoted to the policies
of her imperial brother and to the
cause of Germany A very animal
ed conversation, it is stated, took
place in the Kings library one even
ing, which developed into a violent
quarrel during which the Queen,
whose occasional outbursts of i'm
petuous temper are well known to
all about her, seized sharp pointed
metallic paper knife and scarcely
realizing what she was about to do
being carried away by her hot
+, temper, plunged the paper cutter in
to her husbands side.
The blade, according to the Trib
une correspondents informant
pierced the pleura and grazed the
lower lobe of the Kings lung. The
Queen instantly expressed the deep
est sorrow at the consequences o.
her impetuousity, but the King, nat
urally viewing the episode on it
serious side, earnestly desired tina
the Queen return to her own family
The truth was hushed up and thu
King, as he would have done in an.
case, CALAMITY attributed to in
nuenza the pleurisy that set in ow
ing to the wound.
This dramatic explanation o
King Constantine's malady is de
clared by the relator of the episod
to be absolutely accurate.

by his physician to get employment
where the air was pure and sylvan

bookkeeper for the small country ele-

When the big price bulge came he
was aware that the chance to make q
small fortune was at hand, but he
dared not act on his own initiative.
Paul hung around Easton the rest
Of the day. hoping for sight Of Edna.
The next morning he went to another
village. BY the end Of the week he
had made a circuit Of all the county

Thoughts of the ideal to whom he
had never told his love kept Paul
wakeful. He found he could not
sleep, and got up and sat by the open
window. watching the moon and con-
tinuing to think Of the sweet innocent
face that 1t seemed he could never
forget.
Suddenly his attention was called
to a noisy tumult in the next room.
Two persons had entered it. They
