LORD IDDESLEIGH’S DEATH Harsh Comments by Salisbury’s Enemies BISMARCK EXCITES ALL EUROPE THE TEXAS SENATORSHIP. ALLEGED TRAIN WRECKERS ARRESTED a A Maine Defaulter Captured in Winnipeg. LORD IDDESLEIGH’S DEATH. The End Hastened by Salisbury’s ‘Treatment of Him—What the Effect ‘Will Be. Special Cable Dispatch to Tae Evexrxe Stan. Loxpos, Jan, 13.—Lord Salisbury’s rather cav- aller treatment of his late foreign secretary has had consequences far more dramatic than could Possibly have been foreseen. From the testimony of the doctors it fs clear that for some time Lord Tddesleigh lived in tnminent danger of death from any unusual excitement. The anticipation of an interview with Salisbury under such distressing circumstances,and after their intimate friendship, unbroken since their Oxford days together, fur- nished the sad occasion. Not many days ago he ‘Was found lying fainting on asofa in the foreign office. Last week, while engaged on magisterial duties at Exeter, near his country residence, he fainted on the bench. ‘These things were known to the leading members of bis party. One of Churchil!’s chief reasons for ‘opposing Iddesieigh for every oMlce for some tine past was that he knew the latter to be Physically incapable of continuous or_ specially anxious Work. A colleague of Iddesieigh’s 1n the cabinet writes this morning: “He clung to bis office as to his Ure. When he was suddenly a- zetted out of the foreign office by a curt intimation in the newspapers, I remarked I feared It WOULD PROVE HIS DEATH BLOW. My prediction has been tragically fuifilled. Tam afraid there can be little doubt that the crushing blow involved in that announcement hastened the end.” Allreferences to the dead statesman, both im the press and political circles, are character. ized by the greatest kindness, and testify the uni- versal personal esteem which he never forfeited for moment. When this 1s expressed, however, the speakers on both ‘sides add, “An old gentleman Suffering from chronic diseas¢ of the heart and threatened with palsy was not exactly the man to hold the reins of the British policy at this tine of grave crisis.” By Associated Presa. WHAT THE PAPERS SAY OF IT. Lonpox, Jan. 13.—The Morning Post, in an artl- cle on thé death of Lord Iddesieigh, says: “It 1s dimicult to avoid the conclusion ‘that such @ serious blow may in some affect Lord Salis bury’s government. Lord Iddesieigh was one of the most single-minded and honorabie gentlemen that ever gave their life's labor to the public ser- vice” ‘The Daily News says: “It isnot in human na. ture to altogether ignore the distressing. circum. Stanoes which, in all human probability, hastened Lord Tddesieigh’s death, and those who are re- sponsible for thus harrying a true and loyal friend and colleague may be left to the judgment of thelr own consciences.” The Times says: “We cannot affect to ignore the fact that Lord Iddesleigh’s death 1s a blow to {the ministry and to the unionist cause. Doubtless .¢ rumors lous friction between - ship and his ‘will obtain inereased cur- Saranac eeee justities the m: ” Mine Standard says: “With the, dad Donors patd to Lord Iddesleigh’s memory will mingle lively sympathy for the premier, who must feel as an aggravation of bitterness that in his last days anything interfered with the happy relations which bound Lord Iddesleigh to the conservative cause.” ‘The Daily Telegraph says: “A more honorable, straightforward man never sat in either house. His loyalty to his party was not in the least af- fected by the recent events, nor was his confidence in the government shaken.” SOME BITTER WORDS. ‘The unfortunate fate of Lord Iddesieigh has ex- cited sympathy everywhere. The newspapers ex- tol him, and some of them make very uncompll- mentary comments on the treatment the dead man received at the hands of the prime minister, In this respect the St. Jumes Gazette says: “It cannot be sald that Lord Iddesleigh was ‘mur- dered. It is no erline to be a young man ina hurry, and 1¢ 16 no rime to push a man from a stool On ‘Which you believe you would make a better figure, Perhaps some of his assailants will now feel re- morse, and especially those to whom he was a joke, hot one of whom was worthy to unloose his shoes.” —__ PONDERING MARCK’S WORDS.
