His appearance caused a tre- mendous outhurst of enthusiasm, the ova- tion lasting for several minutes Mr. Chamberlain, commencing his speech sald that his first duty was to thank the great representative audience ior offering him the opportunity of explaining for the first time his views on the subject of the fiscal policy In the city, from which free trade first took birth, and which Adam Smith tavght. Continuing, he pald a tribute to Adam Smith, to whom, however, he said, it was Andrew's 6,000, not given to forsee all the changes which | had occurred during the last century and & half. Adam Smith, nevertheless, was aware of the Importance of home marketa compared to forelgn ones, and Mr. Cham- berlain had been impressed by the manner In which he advocated retaliation under cer- taln conditions, and how he urged recip- rocal trade between the colonies and the mother country. Hence, the speaker was not afrald in Glasgow te combat free im- ports and preach preference to the colonies. It was known to every man that Scotiand bad contributed out of all proportion to its population to the buliding up of the empire ‘which genius, capacity and courage had reated and maintained. Mr. Chamberlain “wald: from Outside, 1 do not regard this ag a party meeting. 1 am no longer a party leader, but an ou sider. 1 do not think it right to raise any exclusive party issues, but after what has occurred mince the meeting at Sheffield a word or_two might be given me to say that 1 I am no longer & leader 1 am still a Joyal Bervant of the party whose union and strength is essentinl to the welfare of the empire and which has found a leader whom every member may be proud to fol- The apeaker paid the highest tribute to Mr. Balfour, with whose principles and Policles he fully agreed, and sald he ad- mired the courage and resource with which the premier had faced difficulties wnsur- weems &s though in this ¥ n":nn who do ways loyaily and . 1 it they may do wil! have the test in] to affect In the siightest the friendship and confi- M'fi the premier and myself.

Inquiries show that the arrest of persons suspected of designe against members of the imperial family average one dafly. The arrests are rarely reported in the newspapers and then only against the wishes of the political police, for the latter believe that the mention of such arrests prompts ill-regulated minds to plan killing the sovereign. Quite fifty definite clues to such plots have been Investigated during the last| few months, largely upon anonymous de- | nunciations. The members of the im- perial family, bowever. are so hedged In by police precautions that it is difficult for the mentally diseased to get near them.
