otrongost It is predicted, England will
continue hostllo to everything Teu
tonic. Tho kaiser's visit to England a yonr
ago commontntors on tho situation ro
mnrk, was proclaimed Just ns tho
king's visit to Borlln'is being pro
claimed now, as mnrking nn ora of
pormnnont friendship between the
two nations. Instead, It marked tho
beginning of a period of tho sovcrcat
strain tholr rotations havo over
known.
It Is only a fow wooku slnco tho
kalsor flatly refused England's sug
gestion of a mutual limitation of na
val armnmonta, thougk'tho strength
ening of his own, as every ono know
in splto of tho fact that ho'gavo other
reasons, could not possibly servo him
except by rondorlng It a moro offoct
ivo weapon ngalnst England.
English public mon qulto frankly
admitted, after tho collapso of tholr
"limitation" plan, that tho country's
only reason for suggesting It was tho
administration's deslro to trim naval
oxponses during tho presont period of
tho government's gravo financial em
barrassment.
Finding It ImpoBslblo to chock tho
knisor's shipbuilding, all tho argu
ments of nn unusually porauaslvo
chancollor of tho oxchoquor woro In
Bufflciout to provont parllamont from
immediately planning enough now
fighting craft to 'maintain British na
val superiority over tho fatherland's
grpwlng. fleet, .
While tho royal visit was aotually

Leaving out of consideration Eng
land's unwavering policy to kcop
down whichever continental powor
happens at tho tlmo to bo strongest,
diplomats hero arguo that Qrcat Brit
ain and Qremnny can novcr bo frionds
until tho fatherland abandons its rap
idly maturing colonization policy. Tho
Germans have reached a point, It is
roasonod, whoro tholr country Is so
ovorcrowded as to rondor outside ex
pansion vitally necessary to thorn.
Tho kalsor Is trying to establish colo
nics for their bonoflt but finds tho
btst location for his purposes already
in England's possession. Ho la build
ing n powerful navy, tho diplomats
think, to tnko Bomo of his rival's pos

pact whllo King Edward was at Bor

this really amounts to much. For
fcno thing thoy doubt strongly whoth
or tho ngreoment will bo kopt long.
Thoy nro pretty sure, too, that it
must havo boon arrangod without tho
knowledge of tho king, his policy
having boon almost opouly for years
to 'keen Germany surrounded by a
cyclo of unfriendly nolghbors on oV
ory side. Finally if ho did promote
tho understanding, this is a gonornl
conviction that Edward, ucknowlodg
od by ovory ono to bo tho most nc-
compllshod diplomat, with tho pos
Bible oxcoption of tho sultan of Tur
key, In Europe, arranged It Bomohow
so that It will prove ultimately to
work to Gormany's disadvantage.

At 12:27 today C. Y. Tlmmons was
brought down from the death coll

tendent James whothor or not ho
wiBhod to havo tho death warrant
read, unswered no, and was thon con
ducted to tho scaffold. Ho required
tho assistance of tho guards notlco
ably to mount tho Bcaffold, and when
asked if ho had anything to say ho
spoko very llttio, and all that could
bo understood was "I havo tried to
bo good." Ho was thon placod on
tho trap, tho straps adjusted, tho
black cap put ovor hJs head, tho
nooBO pulled seourely about his nook,
and at 12:31 ho wan sont to eternity.
' Notwithstanding the torriblo
plunge of six feet ono Inch, Tlmmons'
neck was not broken, and when ho
roachod tho end of tho ropo, tho
wound In his neck wub torn open, and
through this ho broathod stortorous-

to weaken and his strongth bolng nil

down and put In tho coffin.
Tho drop of six foot ono inoh
thrco Inches farther than any execu
tion had In tho Oregon ponltontlary,
and It is somewhat of n mystory why
Tlmmons neck was not broken as ho
weighed 140 pounds. It was thought
by tho physicians, howovor, that tho
tearing of tho skin, which was on tho
lino of tho scar of tho Holf-inflloted
wound at tho tlmo of his crime, was
probably tho cause.
