LATE KING'S TACT
PRAISED BY T. R.
Former President Sa& Edward
Possessed the Finer
Sense of Things
COLONEL SHOCKED BY DEATH
Declares Sovereign Was Influence
Tending Strongly for
World Peace
————- ,5
[Associated Press]
STOCKHOLM, May 7. — Former
President Roosevelt, who arrived here
today, was! greatly shocked when he
learned of King Edward's death. What
effect this will have on his London;
plans he c-anot at present say, but it
is his intention to go to Berlin and
complete his Itinerary as announced.
Colonel Roosevelt today lent a mps
sngo to Ambassador Hill Inquiring if
King Edward's il< ath would necessi
tate a change In' the emperor'a plans
and asking thai lie be advißed should
the emperor gt) to London.
In that event the former president
nould undoubtedly be either the guest
of the American ambassador or pro
ceed to a hotel. Ite has a fixed en
gagement to lecture at Berlin univer
sity on May 12.
Koosevelt gave an illustration ol what
he termed the finer sense of things the
king possessed.
"Next to the rine: John Hay cave
me." lie said, "I value the miniature
Kins Edward sent me after T became
president, of John Hampden. That was
a present :i sovereign could make with
dipnity and one a democratic president
could accept. All the historian?
royalists agree that Hampden was a
good man. The !<iii^ must have known
that Hampden was one of my four he
roes—Timoleon. Hampden, Washington
and Lincoln. Such a. selection as the
miniature showed extreme tact.
"I liave a personal feeling about the
king's death. I know from having
been president that he had an i a
desire to keep the relations bet
Great Britain and the United Slates
on the closest and most friendly terms.
King Edward's death removes one In
fluence that tended strongly for peace
and justice in international relations-.
His own people and other lands must
feel that loss."
Colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt spent a
comparatively quiet day In the com
pany of the crown prince and princess,
mid in the evening \\<vf tin- guests o;"
honor at a dinner given by the citizens.
In a laudatory speech at this dinner
Premier Undman said:
"We are slad to welcome the foremost
citizen of the great republic to which
Sweden lias .sent so many loyal citi
zens."
Colonpl Roosevelt in response torched
upon the question of the hour in S\v«'
den, the propaganda which has been
spread by a certain faction of love
without children.
The former president djd not r.ame
the leader in this propaganda, but
strongly denouced race suicide as one
of the most unworthy things of all
time. It happens that the Swedish
population, next to France and Spain,
lias Increased more slowly than any
other, iiiirl this statement was ap
iilaudrd enthusiastically, Tie was cow
gratulated by the premier and others
on his bold nml unequivocal declara
tions.
CUBE IN SOVEREIGNS
MAKES FRENCH ANXIOUS
Extraordinary Mission to Attend
Funeral—Papers Use
Black Borders
PARIS, May 7.—Nowhere In Europe
lias the passing of King Edward cre
ated deeper emotion than In France,
•where he was gratefully acknowledged
as the principal artisan In the present
diplomatic combination for tin/ preser
vation of the peace of Europe,
Premier Brland and others of the
cabinet called on British ambassador
Bertie early to express their condo
lences, and as soon as Foreign Minis
ter Plchon, who Is absent from the
city, reaches Paris an extraordinary
mission will be appointed to attend the
funeral.
Most of the French papers appear
with black borders today and their
editor sound a common note of
grief, which may be summed up in the
words of the Matin, which pays:
"England has lost a great Kins-, the
world a great figure and France a
great friend."
The diplomatic consequences of a
change of rulers are not dwelt on
prominently, but there Is no doubt
that there is a popular feeling of
anxiety. While the present basis of
peace is regarded as solid, it is realized
that Edward's personal Influence, so
powerfully exercised in all the recent
crises in the cause of peace, will hard
ly be transmitted to hi- successor, and
the dieappi aran of the monarch is
likely, therefore, to singularly modify
the position of i (real Britain on the
European chess board.
BRYAN PAYS TRIBUTE
KANSAS CITY, May 7.— "The death
of King Edward marks the end of a
mighty power and influence for world's
peace," said W. J. Bryan here today.
"His successor, no doubt, will make a
good ruler, and I run Fuire the king's
Influence will be continued in the next
generation."

TAFT SENDS CONDOLENCES
TO ENGLAND'S NEW KING
WASHINGTON, May —President

to «ieorge V, tile new king of tireat
Britain:

"In renewing to your majesty the con

administered the oath to the king, and
r illowing the custom, the cabinet min
isters Bwore allegiance to the new sov
ereign, at the same lime tendering
their seats of office, which his majesty
returned. The ministers kiss d the
king's hand.
The councillors, upon being reap
pointod, In turn took the oath of al
: legiance and kissed the king's hand.
This concluded, the business of the
| i ouncil, and his majesty retire,!.
The kin},' left St. James palace on
; his return to Marlborough house at S
o'clock, having been absent for the
ceremony .iust one hour. The marked
lack of display In the conduct of the
new monarch was striking. A singlf
carriage occupied bj the sovereign and
attended by two royal equerries was
i driven to and from St. James place.
There was no military escort, and the
only decrat ion which the monarch
wore was the Order of the Garter. In
1 fact, the lord mayor and the city alder
men furnished the most spectacular
; element of the ceremony. While his
father was signing the proclamation
the young prince of Wales stood on a
temporary scaffolding behind the wall
nt Marlborough house and eagerly
i hed sudi of the proceedings as
came Into his view.
Owing to the late hour at which the
formalities were completed by the
privy council and the Impossibility of
distributing the proclamation to the
various centers In time i" permit simul
taneous proclaiming , eremonies, the
proclamation of Kins George's b
sion by heralds and pursuivants was
itponed until Monday.
