New York, March 20.—In the first speech of his campaign for the presi- dential mnomination tenight Colonel Roosevelt contrasted his position with that taken by President Tait. The real issue, he said, was whether the Ameri- can people should govern themselves. Colonel Roosevelt's speech was deliv- ered before a crowd which fllled Car- negie hall. So many persons wished to hear him that an overflow meeting was held in a smaller hali within the same building. The street in front of the hall contained a throng of persons who were unable to gain admission to either meeting. Colonel Roosevelt was re- ceived with marked enthusiasm. President 'Taft’s’ recent’ speech at Toledo was referred to several times by Colonel Roosevelt, who devoted & large part of his remarks to a reply.

Londot arch 20.—The fate of the minimum®wage bill seems to be trem- bling in the balance. A. J. Balfour will move the rejection of the bill in the house of commons tomorrow. The dramatic reappearance of Mr. Balfoyr in the role of leader of the opposition is a great surprise. The decision was taken at a meeting of prominent un- ionists, including Austen Chamberlain, Walter Hume Long and F. E. Smith, at which Andrew Bonar Law, who as- sumed the leadership on the retire- ment of Mr. Balfour last November, requested that the former leader un- dertake the duty of moving the bill's rejection. Whether this heralds the return of Mr. Balfour to the active leadership of the party remains to be seen. Steamship Arriva At London: March 20, Minneapolis, from New York.
