HE Scribners have arrange,
with Messrs BONNER, of Stock

to publish my Three Years il
America" by Count errstorff, Tho
former German Ambassador. Boo
publication, to be simultaneous here
and in England, will be made in the
latter part of June, and will not be
preceded by any form of periodical
publication. The volume contains the
dispa tches which passed between Bern
storff and the German Foreign Office
during the stages of the submarine
controversy and reveals the Ambassa-
doris personal views of the ccntro-
versy and of the effect it would have
upon the United States. The man who
for three years represented Germany
in Washington and to very great
extent was the medium of communica-
ion between Germany and America,
the acute student of public sentiment
and affairs here, as we'll as in his own
country, and the central point of an
activity and propaganda, perhaps I'M
orecedented in diplomatic annals, tells
story which, regardless of the feel
ing with which it may be read. is of

His Philosophy
In his short preface to "Almayer's
Folly Conrad, in answering criticism.
allows himself to draw back in some
degree the veil which usually covers
his attitude toward life The last par
agraph, especially, contains almost the
kernel of his philosophy:
Il am informed that in criticizing
that literature which preys on strange
people and prowls in far-off countries,
under the shade of palms, in the I'M
sheltered glare of sunbeaten beaches,
among honest cannibals and the more
sophisticated pioneers of our glorious
virtues, a ady-distingushed in the
world of letters-summed up her aver
sion from it by saying that the tales
1t produced were 'deciviized' And in
that sentence, not only the tales, but
l apprehend, the strange people and the
lar-oh countries also, are finally con-
demned in verdict of contemptuous
dislike.
"A womans judgment, that: intui-
tive, clever, expressed with felicitous
charm-infallible. A judgment that has
nothing to do with justice The critic
and the judge seems to think that in
those distant lands all JOY is a yell
and war dance, all pathos is a howl
and CHASTITY grin of filed teeth, and
that the solution Of all problems is
found in the barrel Of revolver or on
the point of an assegai. And yet it is
not SO. But the erring magistrate may
plead in excuse the misleading nature
of the evidence
