early last evening at his home here.
Senator Burnham had been in failing
health for long time. and for some
weeks his condition had been known to
be very serious.
The state session of 1901 saw a rem

This action has been feared ever
since the break with Germany became
inevitable. Indeed the gloom of Its
deterrents which has stayed the gov
crnments hands in previous crises.
Even in the shadow of the break,
however. officials chung tonaciously to
the bare hope that Germany would not
exact this step. The government went
on with the other details OF the
break as though the question of Bel
GUM did not enter into consideration
ut all.
The quiet word went out that the Uni
ted States would never withdraw from
Belgium until II was forced to do so.
Now that force has come. IL was only
a matter of n minute, the dispatch of a
single note from the German military
governor two days ago. The American
relief commission has hung for months
by a thread; its severance required but
the stroke of pen.
No false pride is felt in official circles
here over American generosity to Bel
GUM. The paltry sa.000,000 which this
country has contributed in money does
not represent even a third of the profit
this country has made on the $l50.0O0.O 600
of supplies bought here, nor a fraction of
the $3.50, 600. 900 spent during the life of the
commission. The qualification, however.
lies in the fact that the soul and spirit
of the commission was American, its con-
ception and guiding direction American.
and its whole life American in efficiency
and in organizing ability.
