GUSTAVE MOLLER 1900 —1920 After an ‘illness of five day’s Gustgve Mgller shuffled off this mortal coil and started on the journey from which no traveller returns. Mr. Mpgller was an intelligent, polite, and industrious young man with a pro- mising future before him—he was just about to be promoted to & prominert position on' the-staff of the Municipal Hospital® at which institution he was clerk, At one time Mgller was clerk _at .the- Apothecary Hall. In both ~pn- sitions ‘he was a favourite with those above him in office and those beneath. “To tell Gustave te do anything’’, said one of ‘those who were above him in office to the writer, ‘‘was as good as hav- ing it done—he not only would noi for- get to do what he was toid, but he was sure to do it correctly.”” And, eonverse- ly, “'lf there was anything we did ‘not understand’’, said one ot his subordin- ates, ‘‘we only hgg to ask Mr. Mgller, lhe would explain it to us so very patient- : yn. G TRNoy . - . - Mollsrwas.an Aunglican and was buried with all the ceremony and rituals which this Church gives to the “‘faithful’’;and nothing showed plainer the high esteem in which Gustave was held than the fact - that nearly every respectable family in Frederiksted was represented at his funeral -and Zin.pot a few cases entire families.

CROIX STATION. - Wasbington, Nov. 24th. —Mvr. Colby, Secretary of State in a note addressed to Earl Curzon, British Secretary for For- eign Affairs, declared that the unimpeded development of the petrol resources of the World is necessary, in order?to meet the requirements.. Referring to the responsibilities of the mandatory powers, the note also declares that it is of the highest importance for the future peace of the World that foreign territories transterred as a result of the war should be administered in such a manner as to -assure equal treatment of the commerce of-the citizens of all nations. It declares that although the United States is not a member of the league, it does not consid- er that it should be excluded from the advaniages of the principle of equality of treatment, as might be supposed by the declaration that the mandates vor Mesopotamia and Palestine were pre- pared with a view to obtaining equality of treatment for all the natigns belonging to the League. ~The American Govt. is opposed to the point of view of Earl Cur- zon that the terms of the mandates can only be discussed by the Councilof the League and by the signaiories to the cov- enant. Mr. Colby affirpas: that the estab- lishment of the principleiof wmandates is a new principle in interpatigndl relations and one in which public opimion takes particular interest and that it appears to demand a more frank discussion of all peints of view appertaining thereto. Paris, Nov. 24th.-—M. Deschanel, who was recently compelled to resign as Pres- ident of the Republie, owing to the state of his health, is now stated to have re- covered and a few more weeks of rest will suffice to complete his cure. London, Nov, 25th.—M. Leygres, President of the Council of Ministers of France, arrived here this evening for a conference of three days with Mr. Lloyd George. Although his visit has for its first object the discussion of the question of the probable return“of former King Constantine to the throne of Greece, his interviews with Mr. Lloyd George will without doubt be concerned with the whole situation in the near East. It is believed that the revision of the Turkish treaty, which has not yet been ratified, wiii he studied and tiis opinion is sup- ported by the fact that Italy has ‘been invited to send a representative.
