FOR PEACE.
A GREATER CROWN THAN EMPIRE, THE KAISER'S CHANCE. INFLUENCE OF Mβ. ROOSEVELT. »y Toiosrnpn-Vrcss AssuclaUon-UoDYrleill (Kec. May 25, 9.30 p.m.) I Christiania, May 25. ! M. Lovlind, President of the Nobel ' Peace" Committee, of Christianin, lias ' made a statement concerning the report ' in tho Paris "Matin." The Knifer, in a conversation with the French Minister for Foreign Affairs, and in a tone of l evident sincerity, developed tho theory that the great nations of Europe should, 1! in tho interests of humanity and civilisn- s tion, remain closely united nnd co-oper-ate in forming a powerful peaco coufederation. 1 M. Lovlind accepts the "Matin's" statement as being all the more probable as the Kaiser has just met Mr. Roosovelt in Berlin. Mr. Roosevelt, ' when in Christiania, uttered tho same [ idea. The new point, adds M. Lovlind, ; is that the most prominent statesmen are j seriously discussing tho question. The > difficulties are many and great,.but the * statesmen who solve the problem in a \ practical form will earn a greater namo . in history than tho founders of great i States. EDWARD THE PEACEMAKER. CARNEGIE'S TRIBUTE, A BUST FOR THE TEMPLE OF '' PEACE. (Rec. May 25, 11.5 p.m.) London, May 25. * The Peace Society' (founded in 1816) * held a notable gathering in tho Guild- c hall. t Mr. Andrew Carnegie, tho millionaire ' philanthropist and peace crusader, paid a warm tribute to tho late King Ed- * ward and his work in the interests of peace. * Amid cheers, Sir Wβ. Mather (an - 1 ironmaster who adopts tho eight hours day, and an authority on technical edn- "■ cation) proposed that the society should present a bust of King Edward VII to the Temple of Peace at Tho Hague (the building presented by Mr. Carnegie to house the Hague Tribunal).
