of the day when he might reach Amer

offing in such force that no ship could
Slip through them. He sent mcssen-
gers to the British naval commanders,
asking if passports for America had
been issued for him.
"But none had come. And with the
Bourbon King now in power in France,
and the ever present fear of what his
fate might be at the hands Of his own
people, he determined to throw him
self upon the mercies of the English.
"To George Nv, then Regent, he
wrote:
"'Royal Highness: Exposed to the

Of Europe, have terminated my polit-

"This ultimatum must have come as
a surprise, for after the President last
winter asked for the resignation Of
Mr.. Galloway and Hermon w. Craven,
a Republican member of the commits
sion, Mr.. Galloway rendered his resig-
nation, but it was not accepted. Appar-
emily all was serene, 80 far as the
Democratic member Of the commission
was concerned. It is said that he re-
ceived assurances that his best course
would be to remain in Office until the
Presidents return from France this
summer.
However, the issue between Mr.
Burleson and Mr.. Galloway has been
growing more strained weekly. Politi-
cal prophets here said there was no
question but one or the other would
have to be beheadcd. As it turns out,
the President appears to have stood by
the much criticised Mr.. Burleson and
ousted MIR. Galloway, his appointcc Of

exceed the prospective income from
