Northern statesmen had ex-
pressed the opinion that Wu could
do more perhaps than other man
to bring the north and south to-
gether.
Known as the most picturesque
figures in diplomatic circles at
Washington during his two. terms
as minister from China to the Uni
ted States government, WI Ting
Fang possibly did more to cement
the cordial relations between that
country and this than any other
envoy from the Orient, with the
possible exception of Ii Hung
Chang. ,
Dr.. WI had sharp tongue, was
breezy, frank and unconventional,
and his keen epigrams, even at
the expense of important person
ages In official life, weer con-
stantly finding their way into
print, sometimes to the embarrass-
ment of the administration. He
was an ardent baseball enthusiast
and bicycle-rider when bicycling
was so popular. He was veter-
tartan and had predicted he would
live 100 wears.

Active in Reforms.

DR.. Wu was active In bringing
reforms to China and he favored
the "open door" policy. His spir-
it of progress was symbolized in a
memorial he presented to the i'm
perial throne favoring the aboli-
tton of the queue. A number of
prominent Chinese gathered at
Wu's home and publicly had their
queues cut off. He started the
work of codifying the laws of Chi
ma and instituted a number of le-
gal reforms, one of which was
jury trials.
The evolutionary movement
begun in 1911 found a strong
sympathizer in DR.. WI. who ad-
vised the prince regent to abdi-
cate. Two years later WI issued
an appeal to the world for the
recognition of the Chinese repub-
lie.
DR.. WI appreciated the import
ance of railways in the develop
ment of country and he was in
strumental in having built the
first railway in China. He be-
came the promoter and chief di-
rector Of the Kai Ping railway
company and later was appointed
by the imperial government CO.
director in the railway bureau, |

China.

was at matter of grave concern to
