Prominent IN CHINESE POLITICS

Can Sun Yat-sen come back? An
American business man, A. Masters
MacDonell, just back from a four
months visit to China, during which
he had several conversations with the
first provisional president Of the
Chinese republic, is Of the opinion that,
although Sun Yat-sen is making no
attempt to become president, events
may easily shape themselves in such
way as to make his selection neces-
sary, because he is the strongest avail
able man.
Mr.. MacDonell regards Sun Vat
sen as perhaps the master mind OF
China. In the interview he gives the
substance Of what that romantic fig
ure, upon whose head price totaling
$5OO,OOO has been offered by provi-
sional governments and the central au-
thorities in Picking during the last 70
years, thinks of the present political
upheaval, and the part that he believes
the United States will play In the

ACTIVE IN RED CROSS WORK

When it was felt that the Red
Cross needed an advance agent in Eu-
rope, someone to break the ground for
the routine handling Of the wounded
and their nursing, and to prepare
skeleton force for the equally great
task of co-ordinating relief in the
devasted districts, rebuilding towns,
and reviving industries, they looked
around for someone with present big
financial affiliations and previous big
business experience. And such one
they found in Grayson Mp. Murphy
at the senior vice presidents desk Of
the Guaranty Trust company. He had
had experience in general business
from art metal construction to wooden
worsteds. He was young man, with
q dynamic personality and great de-
gree of tact. And he had had military
experience. After serving as volun-
teer in the First Pennsylvania infantry
during the Spanish-American war he
entered West Point and graduated in

new GERMAN CHANCELLOR

DR.. Georg e. Michaelis, successor
to Won Bethmann-Hollweg as the ins>
perial German chancellor, was little
known to the public outside Of Ger
many until his appointment last Feb
ruary as special commissioner on food
questions with the rank of minister.
The son Of Prussian official,
he was born on September 8, 1857, in
Haynan, Silesia. He received a uni.
versity education, making the law his
profession. In 1879 he became a court
referee in Berlin, and in 1884 was at.
tached to the district attorneys office
In that city. Several years later he
went as professor of law and political
economy to the University Of Tokyo.
Returning to Germany in 1889, he
was chosen district attorney for Ber-
lin. His services won much praise and
he was afterward sent by the govern
ment as an official in the provisional
government at Trevas, Germany. In
1897 he was transferred to Westphalia,

Harbord's first duties as an officer
In the United States army took him to
Cuba. where during the reconstruction
period he served under Maj. Gen. Leon
ard Wood, who was one Of the first
high-ranking officers to realize that in
Hartford the army possessed soldier
Of great possibilities. Later, in the
Philippine constabulary, under Brig.
Gen. Henry T. Allen and under Col. II.
II. Bandholtz, now chief of staff Of the
National Guard division Of New York,
he made record for efficiency. When
he arrived in the Philippines he was
captain in the Eleventh cavalry, and
his transfer to the constabulary carried
with it the temporary rank Of colonel.
AS Colonel Harbord he was assigned
