Consolidations are the tendency of our age and will prove beneficial. The chances of Andrew Car- regie, if he landed a penniless boy ir New York to-night, would be as bright as they | were in 1848, and he would have even a wider field."” When asked whether the people of America were not likely to pass strin- gent anti-trust legislation, Carnegie said no. He thcught the tariff was a back number for many things, having done its OUTHAMPTON, March 2L—An- drew Carnegie, who arrived from New York on the St. Louis last night, was interviewed here to-day. Carnegle expressed surprise that his donation for the benefit of the New York libraries had caused a sensation. | One of the many cablegrams received up- on his arrival at Southampton, conveying thanks for his recent large donations, evidently gave Carnegie great satisfac- tion. When questioned in regard to his ralty candidacy Carnegle | pooh-poohed any aspirations in that di- rection. “I will say, however,” millionaire, “that New York treats her public men shameful They are not half as bad as painted. It Is a great city and you will have to go a long way to find a better one.” “That's what Mr. Croker maintains,” suggested a New York man who was continued the present. “Well, Croker is not so—-," commenced Carnegle, but, checking himself, he said: I only want to that I am glad to be able to con- tribute anything toward the welfare of the great city of New York.” Mention of the Chinese question led Mr. Carnegie to say: “My views on these questions are known. America has been a great fool in | ber foreign affairs, and England a great- e fool. I have been to China and agree with Sir Robert Hart from beginning to end. If England is wise she will follow | his advice.” D ot i e e e 2 S B S SR B R S S S SRR N Y TWAIN AROUSES IRE GF PREACHERS Missionaries Demand Full Recantation of Humor- ist’s Criticisms.

A large party of Chinese accompanied him to the raflway station. NEW YORK, March 21.—Samuel M. | Clemens (Mark Twain) was seen this aft- ernoon, but declined to say just what re- ply he ‘would make to the demands of the Misslonary Association at Peking that he recant his attack on several missionaries which appeared in a recent issue of the North American Review. It was learned, however, that the humorist will have much more to say on the subject In the April issue of the North American Re- view. “‘Clemens,” said a friend of tha writer, “declares did -not want to write the forthcoming article, but that it was forced from him by the statements of mission- arfes. Clemens hopes they will like it, but he has doubts.” COLORED SOLDIER RISES TO SECOND LIEUTENANCY Benjamin O. Davis First Negro to Gain Regimental Commission From the Ranks.

Lord Chief Justice Interrupts Testi- mony on Irish Members’ Coer- | cion by Remarking “¥You Pulled the Strings.” — LONDON, March 21.—The King's Bench Division of the High Court of Justice was again the center of attraction to-day, ow- ing to the hearing of the libel actions brought against the Star and the Morn- | ing Leader by Arthur Chamberlain, brother of Joseph Chamberlain, and Ne ville Chamberiain, a son of Arthur Cham- berlain, in connection with charges bear- | ing on War Office contracts, which are | being heard before the Lord Chief J tice, Lord Alverstone, the defenda pleading that the articles printed w not libelous and were fair comment matters of public inierest. The cross-c amination of Mr. Chamberlain was con- tinued. He declared he had formed the opinion that the main object of the ar- ticles was to vilify his brother, Joseph in doing which they vilified him.' Though the papers one day denled the intention of imputing corruption and dishonesty to Joseph Chamberlain. on the following day they printed something which was more libelous than ever. Consulted Joseph First. He (Arthur Chamberlain) had not com- municated with the newspapers before bringing the action. He had consuited with Joseph Chamberlain and the latter took legal advice and told him that noth- ing had occurred on which action was | maintainable. To say, as the defendants’ | averred, that the Kyhochs were favored by the Government was untrue and libel- ous. Arthur Chamberlain considered that it would be dishonorabte for them to re- celve favoritism frum the Government. Counsel for the defendants produced let- ters purporting to have been passed be- tween the Kynochs and the Nobels, by | which the former agreed to keep up the | price of the powder for which the latter had made a tender to the British Govern- | ment. Arthur Chamberlain repudiated all knowledge of the letters. Subsequently he admitted that there had been an agree- | ment in 1864 between the Kynochs, Nobels and Chilworths in regard to a fixed price for cordite. Counscl read the evidence | given by the Nobels’ representative be- | fore the Committee on War Contracts to | the effect that Arthur Chamberlain toid | him he had personai influence to secure contracts. Saw No Irish Members. In regard to the cordite contract cured for Arklow in 189, Arthur Cham- berlain said he did not see any Irish mem- bers of Parliament, but got local pressure put on them by telling the working peo- ple that the shops would be closed unless the contract was secured. Here the Lord | Chief Justice interjected: “You pulled the strings.’” Counsel read a couple of letters from Arthur Chamberlain to the manager of the Arklow works, urging that local pres- | sure be brought to oear on the Irish mem bers of Parliament and telling the man- ager_that William Field, member for the St. Patrick’s Division of Dublin, wa about to visit the works.
