LONDON, July 13.—In the House of Commons to-night Premier Balfour | referred to the speech of Field Marshal Lord Roberts in the House of Lords on Monday last, in which the latter said that the armed forces of Great Britain as a body were absolutely un- fitted and unprepared for war and de- clared emphatically that the choice lay between conscription or some practical system of universal training. The Premier said he could never be led to believe that conscription could be suc- cesstully adopted in England. Mr. Robertson asked Premier Bal- four whether there had been any fur- ther representations in regard to the international conference proposed by President Roosevelt and whether the Government was prepared to agree to the President's proposal to include in the subjects for discussion the question for making private property not con- traband of war free from capture or destruction. » Balfour replied that the Govern- ment cordially welcomed the proposal of President Roosevelt, but Great Brit- {ain, in common with other nations, re- served the right of considering what should be submitted to the conference. The Premier added that there had not been any further negotiations on the subject. _——ee— ANTAGONIST RUNS SWORD THROUGH SENATOR’S ARM Real Blood Flows at Duel in Paris Be- tween Prominent Legislators Who Quarel Over Amnesty Bill, PARIS, July 13.—Senator Prevet was severely wounded in the forearm this evening in a sword duel with Senator Delpechs, as the result of a dispute over the question involved in the Govern- ment's amnesty bill. —_———————— HAVANA, July 13.—President Palma has vetsed the action of Congress which contin- ued in effect the budget for the fiscal year ending June 30 last.

WAR MINISTER \WOOD TO GET [BRITISH NAVY OF THE RUSSIAN WAR PARTY [\(11] RiFIIE French Parliament Adjourns - After Session in Which Members Talk - Plainly BERTEAUX MAY RESIGN Leaves Chamber After De- clining to Support Amnesty Bill, Which Is Annulled PARIS, July 13.—Parliament ad- journed for the summer recess to-night after an exciting scene in the Cham- ber of Deputies over the clause in the amnesty bill passed by the Senate Wednesday reinstating those convicted of drawing up secret reports concern- ing the conduct of army officers, during which M. Lasies (anti-Semite) violently ‘attacked General Andre, former Min- ister of War, calling him a reptile. M. Berteaux, the Minister of War, vigorously defended his predecessor and stated that he declined to continue his support of < the Government's amnesty bill in jconsequence of the charges made. The Minister then left the chamber. M. Berteaux's action aroused much confusion and the sitting was sus- pended and at an impromptu Ministerial Council it was decided to withdraw the bill. On the resumption of the sitting Pre- mier uvier announced the prorouga- tion of the chamber, thus annulling the amnesty bill. In order, however, not to disappoint the public on the occasion of the national holiday, it has been ar- ranged that the amnesties will be an- nounced by Presidential decree. There was some gossip in the lobbies to-night regarding the probable resig- nation of M. Berteaux, but it is thought | that such resignation is unlikely. —_————————— IOLA.

WASHINGTON, July 1B.—~In view of President Roosevelt’s utterances at Oyster Bay yesterday concerning the Panama canal and in praise of the execu- tive methods of General Leonard Wood, there is little room for doubt that the next arm order to be issued will be one detaching General Wood from his divi- sion and detailing him for duty on the isthmus. Officers of the army already serving in connection with the canal who are still in Washington are a unit in the belief that (the man whose good military and sanitary work in Cuba called forth the President’s praise will be made supervis- ing chief of labor in the canal construc- tion. As a matter of fact, there Is every !evidence that army officers here have private infermation that General Wood will stand sentinel over the work of civilians and soldlers in the building of the waterway. Not all army men are fond of the gen- eral personally, but they will be one in hailing the appointment of an army man who will see that things are done— come fight, flood or fever. There has been a feeling in Washington for some time, and it has been making jtself manifest recently throughout the country, that saving of time and salva- tion of men depend largely upon giving the army a larger share of control on the isthmus. Army officers “stay put,” it is said. They cannot leave their posts in the face of disease any more than they can leave them on the eve of battle. Further, the army learns lessons In REDISTRIBUTED Admiralty Completes Scheme for the Concentration of Strength in Near-by Seas STRONG FLEET HANDY England Now Has Forty- Five Modern Battleships Ready for Imstant Use LONDON, July 13.—The Admiralty has just completed the scheme of naval re- distribution outlined by the Earl of Ser- borne, former First Lord of the Admir- alty, in vecember last by the addition of numerous battleships to the Channel, Atlantie, Mediterranean and reserve squadrons. \ There are now concentrated in near-by seas no fewer than forty-five battleships, all of modern construction, fifteen ar- mored and twenty-8even other cruisers with their accompanying torpedo boat flotillas, all ready for war at an instant’s notice as well as reserve vessels pro- vided with the nucleus of crews. All of these squadrons will be in Immediate touch with the Admiralty. The Eastern fleet will consist of three groups with bases respectively at Hongkong, Aden and Sydney, while - another cruiser di- vision at the Cape of Good Hope will form a connecting link. This new concentration has been ar- ranged much earlier than had been ex- pected, owing to the fact that naval de- velopments in Far Eastern waters per- mit the recall of battleships from China stations. e iy sanitation as it learns lessons in tactics.
