July 10.-Sr JehnAr fettUi not Fisher, Baron of Kelvra fctone and the first lord of the mlr!ty that planned the British Ufcyy, trained It officer and inspired tt strategy, died today. Lord Fisher was 71 years old. ; Lord Fisher who, like Kitchener, was a great, silent, relentless worker. fU not. In the strictest sense, an EnfJIahinan, for he wm born In Ceylon. His fattier was Scotch and Ms mother, Sophie Lamb Fisher, a 6lBalese woman of high rank. 1 - Lord Fisher was born in 1841 and en tered the navy in 18S4- He was a lieu tenant In Jo. for hta services "in the Crimean war and the China war. in the Utter of which he took part Jn the cap ture of the fort at Canton" and Pieho. lie was made a rear admiral in 1890. while he was director of naval ordnance, which office ha held from 1881 to WU jtnd partly in recognition of hi services In commend of the -Inflexible" at the Bombardment of Alexandria in 1882. In 1891 be became superintendent of the Portsmouth dockyard, where he ori mated many improvements- He then became controller of the navy and lord of the admirality and was made com Aiand in chief of the North American and West Indies stations, then epm. aiaiiderjn chief of the Mediterranean station. In 190? he became second sea Iprd of the admirality, and In 1904 was promoted to ' first lord of the' ed.J miraitty. we reureq rrpm active service tn 1910. but wheothe great Europe l conflict broke out, and bftteri criticism was aimed against Prince Louis of Bst tenberg because of his Austrian birth and nr en tape, the withdrawal of prince Louis was th signal for. a popular call for Lord Fisher tp come 0 the fora VLAWKED EVGM9H WAVY That there should have been a cal for Lord Fisher's services at this crisis in the affairs of Griat Britain was nat Oral. It had been-, said that he stood in the same relation to ' the navy that Lord Kitchener did to the army J But the ccmperhton really fell short of doing Justice to the extent of lord Fisher's achievements. More than to any other one man, the efficiency of the -modern British navy Is due to him. He planned the, hpp, trained the off loers, Inspired the strategy which maintained the com" niitnd of the North sea. When Lord Fisher, over 80 years old. mas given the highest prise of an Eng lish sailor's ambition, the position of first sea lord, he "carried In his brain a well .thought out scheme of reorgan- iaation. He realised mere than any other British commander that a navy of the new type was needed. He knew the ne cessity for training of officers. '-'.Ha was denounced for (he sheer daring. pf the changes he introduced. He realized that the British empire would be saved Or irml in the North Sea, and it was through his foresight that there were enough British vessels at hand when the great J Ml i ft I . . - -n - . ' vuiifHut protve out in isn. ALWAT8 HSLJ) TOJfGUE Lord Fisher was the one big man in the navy world who always held his tongue, s Jn his long career h never spoK or wrote a word for publication. We had a horror of notoriety. Lord Fteher married the daughter of a clergyman, Miss Frances Broughton, in 1886, Thelsen, Hon. Cecil Vavaaseur Fisher, married in 1910 lilss Jane Mor gan, daughter of Randal Morgan of 1'hiladelphia, Lord Fisher came to America for the wedding. Ha was imT pressed with the hustle of American life. ; At the peace conference at The Hasue tn 1899 Baron Fisher was a British dele gate. , One who was present pays that nobody made a greater Impression than he upon the assembled diplomats. Lord Fisher has never hesitated to say that any war he might have to make would be hell. He cherished a bitter .hatred of submarine vessels and declared that If he caught the crew of a hostile sub marine in time of war he would string them up to the yardarm, even If he had to face a court martial afterward. This 'opinion he did not express -In later years, j when he saw that under the sea flght i hig had come to stay. I Lord Fisher had a profile like the bow of a battleship, rugged and sharply cut. i There was a force of expression about i Mis fara that denoted the iron man ef war. His figure was of medium sice, active and even nervous. - His motto throughout his career was. "The frontiers of England are the coasts f the enemy.
