UNCLE SAN REAL CULLIVE, Ironmaster Carnegie Says All Other Nations Are Commer- cial Liliputians Compared with American Union. KAISER COULD SAVE POWERS Remarkable Proposal That German Ruler Create United States of Europe to Repel Our Trade Invasion Abroad. ST ANDREW, Scotland, Oct. 2.— Andrew Carnes! formally rein this afternoon, was led as rector of St. P Andrew's University in the presence of @ large and brilliant Assemblage, over which Principal Donaldson presided, The honorary degree of Doctor of Laws was subsequently conferred by 6t. Andrew's on Mr. Carnegie, Ambas- sadors Choate and White, Prof, Alex- ander Graham Bell, of Washington, and Henry White, Secretary of the United States Embassy In London. Appeal for Alliance of Powers. The tronmaster's rectorlal address consisted of a lengthy study of the com- Parative growth of nations in the paths of Industrial ascendancy, with a striking commentary on thelr future. In his speech, which was replete with notable statistics and important economic Prophestes, perhaps the most remark- able feature was an appeal to Emperor William to use his Influence toward the eventual creation of the United States of Europe, under the form of a political (And industrial unton. In this way alone, Mr. Carnegie declared, can Europe con- quer the forelgn markets or repel the American Invasion, America the Gulliver. “The Czar." he continued, ‘having taken the first step toward the peace of the world, in The Hague conference, the other mighty Emperor might some day be impressed with the thought that it is due to himself and to Germany to play a great part upon the wider stage of Europe, as her deliverer from the Incubus which onpresses and weakens her, the appalling, paralyzing fear of war and of ruin between members of her own body." Mr. Carnegie, in the course of a giow- ing tribute to Emperor William, said he could not help believing that “one so supremely great’ could “influence the few men who to-day control Europe, to take the first step, not to federate, but by an alliance to insure internal peace, which Is ull that can be expected at prerent.” Unless the powers agreed to mething of the Kind all they could look forward to was to “revolve like so many Liliiputians around this giant Gullivar, the American Union, soon to embrace’ two hundred millions of the English speaking race, and capable of supplying most of the world's wants."" For. the best essays on this eubject Mr. Carnegie offered’ a Rector's prize. In the Commercial Slough. Dealing with the events which caused the industrial supremacy “once yours ait now passed to your line: Cant, who bears the Industrial crown, Mr. Carnegie maintained that tt was & physical Impossibility for Great Bri- tain to produce material things rivaling In amount those of countries the size of America, Germany and Russia, nor would a union of the Empire change the situation, for neither Canada nor Aus- tralia gave promise of much Increase in population or tndustrialism.

O'BRIEN MAKES A THREAT. LONDON, Oct. 22.—There was another Uvely though futile discussion In the House of Commons to-day on the sub- Ject of granting a day for a debate on the State of Ireland. The Liberal leader, Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, again supported Patrick O'Brien's request for a day, saying that as the Premier had declined the concession on the mere re- quest of the Irish members, he, a Scotchman, gladly supported the ri quest. Mr. Balfour explained that he could only give a day at Sir Henry's request on the understanding that the motion took the form of a vote of censure on the, Government, and that It was sup; ported by the Opposition as a whole The Liberal leader, however, disclaim- ed any such intention, He! refused to identify himself so completely with the Nationalists, although he strongly con- tended that the request of the Irish Members should be granted, Mr, Balfour said: “I think the Right Honorable gentleman had better make up his mind, If he cannot go any fur- ther and take a full plunge he had bet- ter defer this discussion.” Sir Henry resented what he termed iscourtesy, but Mr, Balfour disavowed uy suc Intention, During the altercation — William O'Brien, T.

YALE CLUB MAN COMPLAINS. One Theory Is That He Is the Person Caught in Mre. Gorman's Home and Punished, and that He Seeks Reveng The strange conduct of an unknown man, who has for a week been prowling around the neighborhood of ‘Thirty sixth street and Madison avenue, has caused alarm in the wealthy house- holds of that locality, and city detectives havo beon detailed to patrol the streets where he has been most seen. Dr. Arthur Chittenden, who was until two months ago on the house staff of the New York Hospital, and lives at the Yale Club in West Forty-fourth street, reported the case to the West Thirtleth street police station and tectives went with him to the scone. It 1s thought that the man is the same who was caught in the house of Mrs. Gertrude A.

The unknown man went to the front door of the Gorman home about 9.30 o'clock Monday night. A colored per- vant, Mrs, James West, answered the ring by peeping past an edge of the curtain over the glass inner door The! stranger had found the outer door un- | locked and had stepped into the small vestibule. “What do you want?" asked Mrs, West. “I come from Park & Tilford's,” was the reply “Well, you'll have to come around to-| morrow,"’ the woman sald.

O'Rourke smiled as though he might be thinking the Prince was not respons|- ble for what he did in Paris. Then he firmly repeated that she could not see him, and that she would have to go way and not bother anybody in the Prince's party while the visitors were in New York. Bristling with anger, the lady swept to her carriage, saying the Prince and his suite could go to Slam for all of her. Won't See American Women. It is learned from Secretary Lester, of the Slamese Embuasy at Washington, who Is now in the Prince's retinue, that the Prince will not see any American women because he thinks they are too independent and dislikes the liberties they attempt to take with him, Five of the Prince’s party took a drive this morning in Central Park. The Prince was up betimes. He complained ment when the mysterious visitor | tapped on the ‘window, soon after leav-/ ing the, Gorman, house.
