Theophile Deleasse was one of the most notable of French states- men during the past 25 years, having to his credit, above all else, the inspiration which led to the formation of the Anglo-French En- tente Cordiale. Detea was born March 1 1852, at Pamiers, Department of Ariege, in| that part of sunny southern France that has been a prolific producer of statesmen. He veloped early interest in public and served a sort of poli apprenticeship in journalism. While he was on the staff of the “Republique Francaise” he w: elected a member of the General Council of Ariege. In 1889 the distriet of Foix, in the same de- partment, sent him to the chan ber of uties and regularly re- elected him for fears thereafter. Delcasse's first legislative work was in the naval, colonial and for- eign relations committees, and he became one of the speakers who commanded the greatest attention of the chamber. The Entente Cordiale between France and England was_ the groundwork of Deleasse’s plan for : A ngthening the friendships of : i Moses Ane nce.

FRANCE DENIES RUMOR OF PACT WITH RUSSIA Foreign Office Declares There Is no Intention of Reopen- ing/ Negotiations Paris, Feb. 22.—The Freneh for- eign office this afternoon flatly de- nied that the cabinet had decided io reopen negotiations with Soviet Russia as asserted by Echo de Na- tionale.
