Salisbury’s Reckless Speech. | While imperial politics are Interesting | home matters are equally go. The Outlook | semi-humorously sums up these by re- { porting Lord Salisbury as saying: “Let us have rifle clubs everywhere and let the young maidens fetch their fathers dlpr!?t;vr and be: % his 1o nder which Canada the whole scheme rence to beer is not half so fa- Tuesday will probably afford the basis for one of the strongest planks of the opposi- tion platform at the next election. Con- fronted by the united Archbishops and Bishops, the Premier spoke more frankly upon the temperance question than almost any leading man in English politics ever fared to speak. As st the ague meeting, Lord Salisbury appea 10 be thinking aloud, With no regard for consequences, and declared he did not see the force of preventing a number of per- sons getting drunk whep it entailed pre- venting “six times as ‘many sober con- sumers having the opportunity for free in- dulgence to which they have a right.” The term “free indulgence” is a campaign headline that will not be easily forgotten; nor did the slim majority o! three by which Lord Salisbury carried the debate strengthen the position of the Govern- ment. Lord Windsor, one of Lord Salisbury’s warmest s\li)pm‘tcrf. published articles saylnf the Premier’s attitude on this question is deeply regrettable and “‘may turn Conservatives and Liberal imperiai- ists into uncompromising opponents of the Government.” Another curious feature of the week 1s the narrow majority~of 11 which the Goy- ernment secured in the House of Com- mons gver the motion to prevent Ministers being company directors. Had the motion been carrled forty companies would have lost members of thelf boards and twenty- five Ministers (including Lord Salisbury, Mr. Goschen, Mr. Chamberlain, Lord Hamilton and the KEarl of Shelburne) would have lost an additional source of income, All the weeklies, regardless of party. agree in supporting the principle gt Tge defeated motion, and doubtless in the course of time the Government itself will bring in a measure to prohibit any Min- ister of the crown from taking part in the direction of a public company. America “Called Down.” The Saturday Review, inter; Sallsbury’s recent genxoralismpre;lggg&?;: hatred toward England and the necessity of arming the country, as especially ap. plicable to the United States, declares: “During the Cuban war there were & large number of people in this cotntry n, but who svmpathized with Spai th kept their feelings strictly to themselves, Not a discordant note was heard fn our press, and the British Government pre- \}r’»m d a combination that would have thrown the Government on Its back, How do. tha United States repay us? We were treated to all kinds of intrigues over the Alaskan boundary and the Nicaraguan canal, and now at least half the American press and nation loudly proclaim their sympathy with the Boers and are organizing recep- tions for their delegates. We shall have to defend our empire, and must do it as Lord Sal , with our right arm.” This is interesting comment, but it neither represents the best-infofmed nor the popular opinion. Lord Salisbury had no idea of referring to American pro-Boer manifestations when speaking ~at the meeting of the Primrose League. More- over, these manifestations are popularly regarded in England, thanks to the cable dispatches of English correspondents, as nothing but a temporary effervescence of political agitation in a country on the verge of an election, and, as such, of no serious import. : The Speaker, commenting upon Russian railroad and territorial aggression in China, declares that Lord Salisbury and Mr. Chamberlain cannot protect British interests, real or imaginary, in any part of the world, and that the United States have been the only guardiag of our inter- ests in China, while Lord Salisbury has been a_helpless looker-on. . The dispute in’the potteries trade now involves 20,000 men, many of whom belong 10 no union and are, therefore, dependent upon charity. The manufacturers insist upon closing down their “works rather than giving in to the demands of jin- creased wages. Changes in the Legal Branch.

Eager Tendency Due to Prospective Gold Receipts. LONDON, May 12.—An easier tendency | prevailed in the money market to-day, Qying 1o the expectation of large re- | ceipts of gold, a million of which is now | on its way from Russia, while it is stated ‘l}.t considerable sums have been en- gaged at New York. The Statist thinks that the action of the Bank ‘of England in advancing the price of eagles indicates nervousness as to | whether or not gold will come from the | United States unassisted. If the bank would consider gold placed on board ship at New York for delivery to the bank as | & portion of its deposits and permit im- | porters to draw against gold thus de- | sary to strengthen the reserve and bring | ease to the money market. If it does not give the necessary facilities now greater inducements may be necessary in July, | when business will be suffe | scarcity of money. The bank, the paper adds, should grant the small concessions nskad and procure the gold the country needs. s R Visit Rome.

Gagged and Taken to a Country House, Where She Was Impris- oned in an Upper Room. PR e R Special cable to The Call and New Yofk Her- ald. Copyright, 1900, by the Herajd Pub- Ishing Company PARIS, May 12.—The sensation of the day in Paris is the abduction of Comtesse de Martel, better known under her pseu- donym of “Gyp.” Mme. de Martel, who has taken a very active part in the mu- nicipal election contest, was present at the political meeting Friday night, and when she left it she was accosted in the Rue d’'Alesia by three men. ‘‘Madame,” said one of them, ““we have been sent by M. Barriller, who asked us to bring you to him in a carriage, as he has something important to say to you.” Mme. Martel, without any distrust, en- tered a carrlage waiting near. As soon as she was seated the three men also entered the vehicle and drove off. The Comtesse gives the following account of her further adventures: *The three men who accosted me conducted me to a cer- tain distance on foot before calling a carriage. As soon as I had entered the carriage they threw an overcoat over my head. ** ‘Don’t scream,’ safd one of them. ‘We ““The drive lasted for some time.

What Is a Tonic ? A tonic is any remedy that invigorates | the nervous system. A weakened nerve | either needs more rest or more nutrition. | A true tonic accomplishes both these | ends. It procures more rest by removing | all irritation, and it increases nutrition by regulating the digestive organs. This fs why Peruna is to be classed as a tonic. Spring Lassitude. Why is nervousness more frequent in the spring? Why do the people feel lan- guid, tired and depressed as hot weather approaches? Because the invigoration of | winter weather has acted as a stimulus | to the nervous system. In spring this is | gradually removed. It puts a severe strain on the human system to adjust itself to the climatic change from winter | to summer. Many diseases are acquired | at this season of the year. Peruna is in- | spensable to tide the nervous system | over this unusual strain. No one should neglect to take a short course of Peruna during the spring. It will fortify the sys- tem against the depressing influences of | hot weather. Buy a bottle to-day and commence. Mrs. Hannah Lind, 1132 E.

I don’t think I could get along without Peruna.” Winter Leaves Its Effects. The climate of winter has produced more or less catarrhal irritation of the | various mucous membranes of the body. This unfits_ a person for business or pleasure. Peruna strikes at the root of this condition by producing a clean, strong, healthy mucous membrane. Pe- | runa cures nervousness and lassitude by cleansing the mucous membranes of the whole body. Clean mucous membranes make good sleep possible, normal diges- tion and regular functions. ‘What a Dollar Will Do. A dollar will buy a bottls of Peruna.

RESTRICTIONS ON THE AFRICAN STEAMER LINE Must Not Land Competing Agricultural Produects in Germany. — e Liberal Press Urges the Party to Sup- port Military Measures in Hopes of Obtaining Favors From the Emperor. et AR Copyrighted, 1000, by the Associated Press. BERLIN, May 12.—This week’s proceed- ings in the Reichstag were rather tame, but the passage of the African steamer bill is of interest to Americans, inasmuch as the Government declared its willing- ness to insert into the contracts with this subventioned line the same paragraph that is already In the North German Lloyd's contract, forbidding their steam- ers landing agricultural products compet- ing with German products at German ports. The fact that a proviso exists in the Lloyd contracts for German mails was brought out clearly because the Agrarian leader, Oertel, without contra- diction, thanked the imperial Chancellor, Count von Hohenlohe, for the proviso. However, practically the effect of the pro- viso is likely to be nil, because the agri- cultural products cannot bear the high freight charges of fast steamers. The Centrist party of the Reichstag will make another effort to pass the so- called lex heinze, which places a number of enerous restraints upon literature and art, despite the known disapproval of the bill by the Eemperor. The Centris with the Conservatives, intend that the bill shall be put on its final passage before the summer adjournment. The opposi- tion will again use obstruction, however, and if the bill is passed the Bundesrath will reject it. The German Liberal press is greatly wrought up because the Bavarian Govern- ment extradited the Austrian editor, Kor- don, under an obsol&e rgsolution of the former German federation of 854, Kordon belongs in the Tyrol. where a Count sentenced him to six weeks in jail for criticizing the Catholic church. e Vossische Zeitung recommends that such conditions be obliterated by Bundesrath and Reichstag legislation. Plans of Liberals. The curious idea has fastened on a large art of the Liberal press that if the Y‘lberalu show an effusive willingness to pass any bills for military or naval pur- poses the Emperor will abandon his prejudice against the Liberals and sum- mon their leaders to Cabinet positions and the like. The Tageblatt leads in exploit- ing this notion, while the whole Conserva- tive and Centrist press, representing the Government majority, ridicule the move- ment. The semi-official Post to- ks of it as “Liberal bysantinism. TPowever, it is quite certain that the Em- eror has been powerfully impressed by he naval enthug:nm on the d”" of the including financial circles.

Brazil, this official added, apprehends no danger, but American poli- llcllhar:s are “paepstlicher als der papst| selbst.” “If Brazil is not threatened by greater | dangers than those that menace her from Germany,” the official continued, ‘““Brazil- ians may be quite unconcerne future.” The Vossische Zeitung is the only even- | ing paper which comments on Senator Lodge’'s speech. This journal says: “‘Sen- ator Lodge’s words leave no doubt that they were aimed at Germany. One must doubt the good will and political intellt gence of American statesmen when one of the most respected of them still be- | lieves the fairy tale of the exchange of | North Schleswig for the perfectly worthless Danish Antilles, and the foolish babble about founding independent Ger- man colonies in Southern Brazil.” The article concludes as follows: ‘Do not let Americans believe they can gain the sympathies of the world through such rhodomontades. With such thoughtless speeches they can only still further dis- | credit their present life an: which this is embodied.” SUPPLY UNEQUAL TO 'DEMAND FOR &RAIN BAGS Problem Is Becoming Serious to the | Directors of San Quentin Prison.
