T London, Nov. 2. Lord Northcote, in a letter to the limes, urges that in addition to the already decided statue, London's memorial to King Edward should .include the support of an Edward VII. Iropical Research Fund. He states that Lord Crewe, Mr Ramsay MacDonald, Lord Northampton, Baron Rothschild, Lord Elgin, Lord Kitchener, and the Hon. Joseph Chamberlain support the proposel, saying he regrets that he is unable to take an active part. Mr Chamberlain writes that he is m favour of the movement regarding tropical diseases, which he hrmly believes has done more than -anything to make tropical life possible to Europeans. Lord NorSicote instances 35,953 deaths in the city of Havana from yellow fever during fifty years, before the "United States commenced remedial measures. There was only one case in 1907.
