LONDON, March 31. Tho Ilrlt
Isli Govorumont is preparing a bill
to vary the conditions of the Rhodes
Scholarship Trust, eo ub to eliminate
provisions for tho endowment of
German students coming to Oxford.
Cecil Rhodes established fifteen
scholarships of $1250 each for
young men of Gorman birth, to b
namlnuted by the Gorinun Emperor.
These endowments, along with those
for American student.!, wero cro-
ated, as lila will explained, under the
conviction that "a good understand
ing botweon Englnud, the United
States and Germany would secure
the peace of the world, and educa
tional relations form tho strongest
tie."
The Pull Mull Gazette, comment
ing on tlio pond'.ng alteration or the
Rhodes boquoBt, remarks. "The cut
ting out of Gormuuy from tho fa
mous bequest Is u aymbollu udinls
slon of the failure of the mutable
philosophy of friendship between
England and Gonnuny. and an an-
iiouncomont thut the dreuius asso

scholarships wore a conspicuous In
