[ . 2.—The Libetal L‘nlun-l ists, at the annual meeting of the Liberal | Unionist council to-day, definitely repudi. | | ated any desire to enroll themselves un- | der Lord Rosebery’s banner. The Duke | of Devonshire, lord president of the coun- cil, who presided, declared Lord Rose- bery had done great service In disasso- | | ciating himself from the pro-Boer ele-| ment, but the speaker failed to see how the Liberal imperialist party could offer any inducements to the Unionists. Men who refused to play the game and im. partially blamed others all around, wheucner Kiping or Rosebery, would meei with very scant sympathy. The country was not disposed to follow the flag of statesmen who had quietly looked on while these new guides of the Liberal party had led it deeper and deeper into | the mire. He sympathized with Lord | Rosebery’s offer to reconstruct the party { but did not expect his efforts would | attended with success. In the meanwhile he believed the Unionists would adhere to their own party. The resolutions passed by the meeting | referred to the occasionally expressed hopes of the Roseberyites of getting Unionists recruits and declared that their hopes were quite groundles MEMBERS OF FLORODORA COMPANY IN A WRECK WILMINGTON, Del., Feb. 27.—A special train carrying the Florodora Theatrical Company from Norfolk, Va., to Wil- mington on the New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk Rallroad was wrecked to-day at Eastville, Va., and several members the company were seriously injured. heavy fog prevented the engineer from observing a freight train ahead and a rear-end collision occurred. The engine, baggage car and two forward cars of the | special train were completely wrecked. W. L. Carleton of the Florodora co: sustained serious injuries. He is paralyzed from the walst down and may not recover. E. C. Herr, manager of the company, and Charles H. Potter also are badly in- Jured Others who sustained injuries are: Tony Rooney, Miss Frances Gordon, Miss Ella ss Selma iss Libbie Allie Young and Miss Annie Young. | The fireman of the special whose name was not ascertained, was badly scalded There were eighty-seven persons in the | theatrical company.

The conclusion which the Commissioners arrive at is that Chinese retard white immigrants, who /. the Per Capita Tax to Five Hundred Dollars, O would make good citizens and settlers. It is said that the presence of Chinesc is dangerous to the indus- trial peace of the community where they reside. They carry away to their own country all their earnings and spend little or nothing in Canada. In the opinion of the Commissioners it is impossible for the province of British Co- lumbia to take its place and part in the. Dominion unless its population is free from any taint of servile labor and is imbued with a sense of duties and responsibilities appertaining to citizenship. The Commissioners approve of the views of the Legislature of British Columbia as to the grave injury that would follow an influx of Chinese la- borers. Then follows the findings of the commi sion. Messrs. Clute and Foley favored an immediate raising of the per capita tax to $500, and Mr. Munn thought a trial for two vears at $300 at” first would be best, then raising it MONEY JINGLES IN THE COFFERS Strong Financial Support. * OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Changes Are Made in the Postal Ser- vice, Pensions Granted and Military Men Transferred.

News of the Delay in the Negotiations Comes as a Surprise. MADRID, Feb. 27.—The Forelgn Minis- ter, the Duke of Almodovar, at the con- ferences with the Senators yesterday, announced that the Government was op-| posed to the insertion of a clause in the| Spanish - American treaty prohibiting Americans from acquiring land in Spain, as Spaniards acquired property and stocks in the United States. The Minister declined to promiSe to sub- mit a draft of the treaty to Parliament before it was signed. WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.—Surprise is ex- pressed here at the report that the nego- | tions for the Spanish-American treaty are | delayed owing to Spanish objections to the provision for the holding of lands by the citizens of either country in the other. This point was discussed pretty thorough- Iy some months ago ana Mr. Storer re- ported it satisfactorily adjusted. The Spanish Government wished its citizens to | have the power to hold lands in the| United States on terms of equality with American citizens, being willing in return to allow similar privileges in Spain to Americans. The difficulty in the way con- sisted in certain United States statutes prohibiting alien ownership of lands, par- ticularly in the Territories and the Dis- trict of Columbia. This'difficulty was re- moved finally, it was supposed, by the agreement of the United States Govern- ment to give Spaniards the most favored | nation treatment in this matter, which would, according to the common construc- tion of treaties, give them the same priv- ilege as American citizens to hold lands and stocks. Of course the new treaty will have all the force of law and, under the Supreme Court’s- decision, if it conflicts | with existing law upon any such point as alien ownership of lands, then it super- sedes that law. COMMERCIAL TREATIES ABOUT TO BE RENEWED Austria-Hungary May Refuse to Re- | new Some of Those Now in Existence. BUDAPEST, Hungary, Feb. 27.—In the lower house of the Hungarian Parliament to-day the Premier, Koloman de Szell, re- ferring to the approach of the time for the renewal of commercial treaties, said that while there was no intention of de- ( nouncing all the commercial treaties, Aus- | tria-Hungary would be obliged to de- nounce some of them. The Premier re- ferred to the iIncreasing industrial pro- duction of the United States and inti- mated his belief that the necessity might ome day arise for Europe to enforce a “commercial Monroe doctrine” agalnst | the United States. | Cudahy Buys Pasadena Land. | PASADENA, Feb. 27.—Michael Cudahy, the millionaire packer of meats of Omaha, has purchased a lot on the northeast cor- ner of Bellefontaine drive and St. John avenue, in this city, from Mrs. Mary T.
