' Washington, D. G , Pec lr
Henry M. Durand, the retiring British
ambassador, - has arranged to sail for
' hem with his family the last of next
, week. Mr. Earns Howard, who will bo
ths British charge d" affaire until the
appointment of an ambassador, la ex
pected here within a dar or two.
Though, of course, there has boon no
official expression of opinion. It la
'pretty well known that thla govern
ment would . welcomo the appointment
of James Bryce to succeed Sir Henry
M. Durand, It Is but natural that Mr.
Bryce should bo preferred to any of
; the others who have been mentioned
as possibilities for the vacant poet, for
' th reason that none of them is so well
- known on thla side of tha Atlantlo as
the famous author of the "American
Commonwealth." ' ...-
It Is scarcely an exaggeration to say
" that James Bryce, more than any other,
person, has exercised his influence in
ths direction of a closer union between
the United Bute and Great Britain.
Perhaps no man living in foreign lands
j knows the American people their as
pirations, their history and their post
" blllUesso well as does Mr. Bryce, who
possesses a peculiar talent for the phil
' osophy of history. :
Mr. Bryce 1 "an Irishman born." He
, is a native of Belfast, and is in his
. sixty-ninth year. His early education
; was secured in Glasgow, but he studied
later at Trinity college In his native
land, and graduated with honors at Ox
ford in 18ta. He has from the first
been a notable man. Even in his col
. . lego days he won fcbolarship an prlxes
James Brice, H. P.
for which hundreds of others strove Li
vain, and In his mature years ho pro
vided his . friends with no disappoint
ments. It would hardly bo fair to say
that Mr. Bryoe is an ardent disciple of
tha Anglo-American alliance theory, but
ho has presented the case of the Unit: I
Rtates so well that ths conservative
Briton has steadily advanced in his de
