SCATHING- CRITICISM

(Received June 11, 11.5 p.m.)

New York, June 11

The leading newspapers throughout the United-States declare that Mr. Bryan's desertion of the Cabinet at an unfortunate time is the least becoming act of an unprofitable diplomatic career, coining as it does at a time when the Note was about to be despatched to Germany, and when a stiffening of the attitude of the United States was looked for abroad.

The papers view the incident as one that cannot be agreeable to Germany, where it must necessarily though erroneously appear that there is divided sentiment in America as to the propriety of his act. '.-."'■'
