90, by the time this greatest
y show on earth" is over, one
may have a very confused idea
Of what it was all about, but firm
conviction that it was good to have
had a ringside seat.
kOR the moment those who con.
Germ themselves with the con-
ference are engaged in welcoming
the incoming delegations and the
only entertainment so far being
done for the conferees Is in the
nature Of preliminary skirmishing.
The Japanese Ambassador, Baron
Shidehara, postponed his reception
for the delegates from Nippon on
account of the tragic death OF
Premier Hara. 1t was to have been
a mans party, given principally
that japan ENJOYS might have an
opportunity to meet and become
acquainted with the newspaper men
OF Washington. And, although the
Secretary of State and Mrs. Huges'
dinner on Wednesday evening was
more or less official" being given
for the American delegates TO the
conference, It was small and
rather intimate party.
THE Japanese and Chinese dele
cations were the first to arrive
in their entirety, but the others
are slowly assembling. Some of
the Italians are here and a group
of the Belgians. The delegation
from the Netherlands got in yester-
day-at any rate some of them
did-and among them is an old
friend, Jonkheer Won Starkenborgh-
Staehouwer, who was at one time
attached to the legation here and
Marburg, Of Baltimore. great
favorite in Washington during the
Taft regime. Nine. Won Starken-
borgh accompanies him.
The vanguard Of the British
delegation reached New York early
In the week. but some Of them,
notably Lord Lee of Fareham and
Lady Lee, to whose arrival Wash
ington is looking forward with con-
siderable interest, fingered on in
New York for a few days. They
are to stay at the Lafayette.
THE return Of DIR. Wellington
Koo, who was transferred from
Washington to London after serving
here as Chinese minister for some
time, has double interest because
he brings with him a bride acquired
since he went abroad. There is con-
siderable curiosity to see the new
Mrs. Koo, for she has been described
as a beauty and has had a great suo-
cess in London.
have never been able to get the
little lady's connections quite
in my mind-you may re-
that the stories printed at
the time OF DR.. Koo's marriage were
both confused and confusing. But
believe she has English connec-
tions and am under the impression
that her mother was married the
second time TO an Englishman OF the
Straits Settlements.
There are two little ladies' who will
be hostesscs for the Chinese delega-
ton. Mrs. Koo and Mrs. sso, wife Of
the present minister to the United

SO there you have II in a nutshell.
The difficulty is, however. that some
of them do very much want relief.
And until there is some general
agreement as to ways and means
they can't give up the ceaseless
round of leaving cards without rum

tomorrow at a meeting at the home
Of Mrs. Hughes. The supposition Ia
that they they will act as a unit

in the previous Administration the
Cabinet ladies agreed to disagree on
certain subjects and each went her
