the objects Of political parties. With
out stain or blemish, he passed
through life seeking not the plaudits
OF mankind, but rather the justifica-
tion of his own conscience. He aimed
always at the right. He was an hon
est Judge, firm and unwavering in the
discharge of duty, faithful to his con-
victions and unswerved by any consid-

law Of the case before him. No man
ever dared approach him, either di-

improper order or ruling. There was
not the slightest shadow Of dissemb-

istic of George w. Brooks as a citi-

as Judge was his loyalty to truth
and TO the honest convictions of his
own mind. He was candid and frank
with everyone, but not more so than
with himself. He deceived no man.
nor would he permit his own heart to
be deceived by any of those seductive
influences which too often warp the
judgment of men in public station He
never paused to consider how far any
step which he was about to take
would lead to his own personal ad-

ORIENTAL CRISIS AvERTED
Believed That a Favorable Settlement
Of Jap-chlna Controversy
Reached.

Observation-Disclosures from q
high official source is that the far
eastern crisis has been averted, and
that a favorable settlement between
Japan and China is In prospect. Sec
rotary Bryan announced on May that
the United States had received the
substance Of the japanese ultimatum
to China, and that 1t contained i'm.
portant notifications by Japan. He
declined to say whether the modifca-
lions we're satisfactory to the Amer
lean government.
Chinas reply to the Japanese note
was delivered to the Japanese min
lister May 8.
The government expects no serious
revolutionary outbreak from the peo-
pie. The military leaders have as.
sured Yuan Shi Kai that their support
would continue.
There is good reason to believe that
China is prepared to concede every.
thing demanded by Japan, realizing
that the situation is hopeless.
This possible outcome to the pres.
ent tense situation is not generally
comprehended in Peking consequently
a number of foreign residents as well
as Chinese themselves, are packing
their personal belongings and other
wise preparing for eyentualities.

ZEPPELINS RAID ENGLAND
Conveyed by AeropIanes Flyers Do
Much Property Damage to
Coast Towns.

London.-Zeppelins, conveyed by
German aeroplanes, poured a deluge
of bombs upon three coast towns,
South End, Westcliffe and Thunders-
ley, grouped on the north bank Of the
mouth of the Thames, 40 miles from
London, during the early hours Of the
morning of May 10, killing one woman,
setting fire to a number Of buildings
and causing considerable damage by
explosions.
Soon after the raid British airmen
were assembled, ready for flight, and
special constables and coast guards
were maintaining extra vigilance In
anticipation of a repetition of the raid.
More than 100 bombs, mostly incen-
diary, were dropped on South End, the
popular bathing resort. Eight build
ings were fired and the population,
asleep at the time-it was 2:40 am.
when the first bomb was dropped-was
thrown into a state of great excite
ment. Two explosive bombs burst
In the streets, SCATTERING windows all
about and tearing great holes in the
pavement. A timber yard was de.
stroyed and several residences were
damaged by fires. A boarding house
was burned and only the walls remain
standing. The explosive bombs were
apparently aimed at the parade
grounds and the gas works, but mel
ther struck their mark. Fire bombs
fell near the South End pier, the cor
poration electric works and railroad
freight yard.
One projectile that failed to explode
fell on the beach a short distance from
prison ship on which 1900 Germans
were interned.
No casualties are reported from
Westcliffe or Thundersley, where fires
caused the only damage. Early re-
ports said bombs had been dropped on
Canvey Island and on Shoeburness,
Romford and PitEea, but later reports
showed this to be untrue.
The air fleet disappeared to sea.

WILSON DECIDES POLICY
Government VIII Request Guarantee
Of Safety For Americans
on High Seas.

Washington.-President Wilson has
virtually decided on the first step in
the policy which the United States
government will pursue as a result of
the sinking Of the British liner Lust
tania, with the loss of more than a
hundred American lives.
The president will act promptly A
draft of communication to be sent
to Germany has been submitted to the
cabinet and approved unanimously.
While no official announcement was
made, It was learned that the United
States would present and insist upon
an explanation of the series OF Incl
dents which have occurred since the
proclamation of war zone around the
British Isles. the sinking Of the Fala-
ba, causing the death of Leon G.
Thresher, an American citizen, the at
tack by German airmen on the Amer
lean steamer Cushing, the torpedoing
Of the American steamer Gulflight,
and finally the destruction, without
warning. Of the Lusitania with a toll
OF more than thousand lives.
In what are described by those IA
miliar with the document as firm and
unmistakable terms, the president
voices the intense feeling Of the Unit
ed States over these happenings, and
In the name Of international law de-
mands an adherence by Germany to
the established rules of maritime war
fare. The note asks that a guarantee
Of safety be given to Americans on
the sea-
The president points out, It is un.
derstood, that the United States in It's
note which said Germany would be
held to "strict accountability" for any
attacks on American vessels or lives
had not admitted any right on the part
Of Germany to carry on such methods
Of warfare, and declares, moreover,
that the giving of official notice OF an
intention to commit an unjustifiable
act did not justify the act or make IL
lawful.
What will follow in the event Of a
refusal by Germany to comply with
the expressed wishes of the note about
to be sent no one of the presidents
official family would predict.
They said the president was deter
mined to act firmly and deal with each
situation as 1t arose.
