REVIVAL PROGRAM

Reports Show a Large Num-
Der of industries Again
Working at Normal.


BRUSSELS. July 1s.-Henry II.
Morgan. American high trade COM
missioner in Belgium. has esta blish-
ed commercial organization here
TO aid in the reconstruction OF Bel
gian industries. He announces that
this organization is al the disposal
Of all merchants and manufa cturers
in Belgium and America
To an Associated Press cores
pendent Mr. Morgan said that in
view of what Belgians already have
accomplished, he did not feel dis
couraged over industrial conditions
in this country. ION the contrary
he said. II feel certain that they will
carry their reconstruction program
through to a successful conclusion.
I notice an intense cultivation OF the
soil which will result in the next
crop being nearly equal TO pre-war
crops.
Virtually all the glass factories
I'm the country now are in operation
and 30 per cent Of the textile looms
now are busy spinning raw cotton
arriving from the United States.
TT is estimated that the loan OF
500. 900, eco francs which American
bankers have agreed 20 extend TO
Belgium will go a long way toward
reconstruction. IL also will have "A
beneficial effect upon the purchase
price of the franc which at the pres
ent time is very low. Repayment
OF this loan is not TO commence
until 1880. 1t is only by rapidly
building her mills that Belgium can
hope TO pay back this loan in the
production of her manufactured
goods"
Mr.. Morgan said it was estimated
that the Germans had carried away
cne-third of the Belgian live stock.

But the spirited Princess quickly refused

less, and short time later he was turned
off his throne.
The Grand Duke Michael of Russia,
brother of the Car and a possible sue
cessor to the throne, was regarded as
highly desirable match for the Princess
Patricia. From the old-fashioned diplo.
matte point o. view there could at that
time have been no greater field of useful
ness for British princess than to marry
into the court of vast chaotic Russia. Her
sister, the Princess Margaret of Con-
naugbt, a handsome girl like herself, had
married the Crown Prince of Sweden, and
her situation, according to the diplomats,
was an ideal one, for she spent much of
her time fighting German relations and
German agents.
But the Russian Grand Duke was too
dissipated to please the Princess Patricia
He was declined and consoled himself
with a morganatic marriage.
Inc COUNT Oh luTln, llrSL COUSIN OF the
King of Italy and quite noted as a dashing
soldier and duellist, was another ad-
mirer Of the fair Princess, but he was not
seriously considered. He was only one
of the very long list of Princes who were
mentioned as possible husbands for the
most admired princess in Europe.
About this time the Princess Patricia
was credited by society with a real ro-
nance of her own. Among her own circle
of friends, as distinguished from the court
circle, were the Marquis of Anglesey, a
very handsome young English peer and

officer, known to his friends as Handsome
Charley" and Lady Marjorie Manners.
daughter Of the Duke of Rutland, and
noted as one Of the most beautiful and
fascinating girls in England.
Society was convinced that the Princess
was in love with the Marquis and also
that her brother, Prince Arthur of Con-
naught, was in love with Lady Marjorie
Manners. Everybody knew that these
young people spent much time in one an
others society
Then a cruel blow fell King Edward,
it is understood, intimated that neither
OF these alliances could be permitted. He
wished his attractive nephew and niece
TO marry important members OF reign
ing families.
Prince Arthur of Connaught then mar
ried his first cousin. the Duchess of Fife,
obviously prudent marriage, as he was
one of the most popular members of the
royal family and his bride one of the
richest and near in succession to the
throne
The Marquis Of Anglesey and Lady Mar
Jorle Manners, having been great friends,
now married another. The experiment
was not very satisfactory, and they spent
much time apart for several years, but
became reconciled during the war.
The Princess looked quite heartbroken
at this period. Her father, the Duke of
Connaught, was appointed Governor-Gen-
eral Of Canada and something in the
bracing atmosphere of Ottawa brought
back the roses to the Princess cheeks
She achieved tremendous popularity in
the Dominion. One of Canada's finest reg

plainly stamped on his physical makeup.
These physical shortcomings were alone
sufficient to make the Princess Patricia
reject the King as a husband To the
great concern Of all who were interested
in the project, the Princess absolutely re-
fused to listen to the Kings proposal. Her
father, the Duke OF Connaught, a very
goodnatured man, found it impossible to
chance her mind, although he strongly
believed in the old principle that prin-
cesse3 should marry for the glory of their
families
1t was common gossip that the Princess
in her impatience expressed very un-
complimentary opinion of the King.
The gallant King Alfonso, far from be-
ing offended, took his rejection very
philoSophically, and Immediately began to
court with the same enthusiasm the Prin
cess Patricia's cousin, Princess Victoria
of Battenberg
One after another the youthful kings
and heirs to thrones we're put forward as
husbands for Princess Patricia and re-
Jected. For brief time it was suggested
that she should marry the German Crown
Prince, but this plan was quickly aban-
doned. for the relations of England and
Germany were even then TOO doubtful to
make such a MARRIAGE polite.
Young King Manuel of Portugal seemed
a very likely candidate for her hand. Many
important persons strongly favored this
marriage. for Portugal is small maritime
country having close relations with Eng
land, and it seemed advisable that the
leading power should be well represented
there.

x TO development of the great war in
M the realm of romantic interest
. quite equals the announced deter
mination Of Her Royal Highness Patricia
of Connaught to marry a sailor without
title
The day when Princess Pat" becomes
Mrs. Alexander Ramsay some very strange
things viii happen.
The Princess occupies a position, ac-
cording to court authorities, immeasur-
ably above that of her husband, and under
old rules he could not sit at the same
table with her or enjoy any kind of social
familiarity with her. She is the first
cousin of King George, niece Of the late
King Edward and a granddaughter of
Queen Victoria.
Her father, the Duke of Connaught, as
the only surviving brother of King Ed
ward, is the senior kinsman of the present
King and acts as his chief assistant at all
great public ceremonies and His Majesty's
representative when he cannot be present.
The Princess occupies a similar posi-
charm is needed to grace the occasion.
When the King and Queen hold a court a
certain number Of princes stand beside
the King and an equal number of prin-
cesses behind the Queen. The Princess
Patricia is leading figure in the second
group.
Only princes and princesses of the blood
royal can stand in the group with the King
and Queen. At a respectful and consider
able distance stand groups composed of
dukes, duchesses, Cabinet ministers, court
officials, etc.
Commander Ramsay would have no rec
ognized place among those standing about
the King and Queen at court. AS the
younger brother of the Earl of Dalhousie
he would rank far down in the list of those
related to nobility, a long way below, for
instance, the little boy who is heir to his
brothers peerage.
In domestic life in the palace the sep
aration between the Princess and her
fance is even more marked. The Prin-
cess, as first cousin TO the King, could droD
in for tea at Buckingham Palace or Wind
son Castle whenever she pleased, while
the commander would probably never re-.
ceive such an honor and would not be al-'
lowed to pass the outer gates without an
invitation.
Ordinarily only persons of royal blood
are invited TO sit down to dinner with the
King, although exception is made in case
of men of high official position. Even then
the non-rOyal person does not sit next to
the King. but some princess is placed TO
separate them. The Princess. of course,
would sit down to dinner with her cousin
il she dined at the palaces. Lords and
ladies in waiting and persons of lower
rank sit at separate tables. That is where
Commander Ramsay would have to sit if
he were invited to dinner. as a special
honor And so it would be in all the
affairs of life.
All her privileges of court and public
rank so dear to a certain type of mind
the Princess will, il appears, have to re-
nounce when she marries. But there will
be many compepsations. She will enjoy
a happy, quiet home life with the man of
her choice. She will be relieved from the
innumerable fatiguing duties which fall
upon younger members of the royal fam
lily. such as laying foundation stones of
orphanages and opening new wards of
hospitals.
