SPECIAL DESPATC HES TO THE EXAMINER,

TURKEY AND GREECE

LORD SALISBURY ON THE ISSUES INVOLVED,

Those Who Encouraged Greece {0 Break the Peace are Guilty of Blood.

Not Sympathy, but Strict Obedience to International Engagements Must Govern Action of Nations.

Loxpox, Mav 19.—Speaking at the Junior Constitutional Club last evening, Lord Salisbury touched briefly on the complications in southeastern Europe. The Premier said that the armistice which had been declared wasdue to the pressure exerted by the powers, especially by Rus— sia. It was a very important step, giving time forreflection. But itdid not very seriously diminish the difficulty that had

to be faced. Neither Turkey nor Greece ought to be under an __ illusion as to the real state of feeling

in the United Kingdom. He had men- tioned both coun:ries, he said, because in the dim future no one could know to which of thetwo it might become necessary to appeal fora solution of problema which must be solved. The peculiarity of this strange crisis, said Lord Salisbury, is that the war cannot be leftto work out its natural result. It is impossible that Europe should allow Christian communi- ties to fall under the Sultan. But it must not be thought, because this document throws ite zgia over Greece, that there- fore she is to be free from al! the penalties attaching to unwise or unrighteous action, and in this connection I may say that the sending of an address such as was rent to Greece by a hundred members of the House of Commons ought, in its thought- lessnese, to be recorded as a disgrace to the House of Commons, They are guilty of blood which has been shed in conse-

quence of the false caleulations generated in the minds of those they affected to support. Lord 8alis-

bury referred tothe sympathy of England for Greece, as founded upon classic association, Liberalism in polities and community of religious conviction, as wel] as upon Other influences. But such con- sideration as these, he said, could not be suffered to guide the politics of nations, for their policy was to maintain peace by a strict cedteos lo international engage- ments.

NOTES FROM THE CAPITAL.

Government Delaying the Tariff.

ee

Statesmen in a Quandary.

Orrawa, May 19.—Before going into supply yesterday Hon. Mr. Fielding stated that the Tariff Bill would be taken up next Tuesday.

Hon. Mr. Foster expressed regret at this further delay. The Government had simply been wasting time for a fortnight since the budget dehate ceased. If the Government hopes to get supply while withholding the tariff, it will find its expectation not realized. There are. he continued, many elements of doubt in the tariff itself, and apparently the Ministers themselves were sti]] in # state of uncer- tainty. Meauwhile the business was being carried’ on from basdto mouth. Both manufacturers and traders are anxious’ to have the matter settled as soon as possible. They want the financia} condi- tions reduced toa stateof certainty, so goon as tie Ministers are able to reduce themselves to that state.

Hon. Mr. Fielding did not agree with the proposition that the business people of Canada desired the tariff settled at once. They were rather anxious that their repre- sentations should receive favorable and careful consideration.

Sir Hibbert Tupper observed that the late government, after 1897 never changed a principle of the tariff and the public always knew that the principle would be maintained but this goverament which claimed to be theablest assembly of states- men ever collected and which declared that it proposed te revolutionize the tariff had spent more time getting its tariff bill ready than bad been spent by any govern- ment of this country or of any other country. .

The debate was continued by Messrs. Craig and Davin after which the house went into supply.

Lonvon, May 16—A special despatch from Melbourne Victoria fays that no fewer than ninety earthquake shocks have been feltin South Australia during the Jast three days. ‘The subterraneous dis- turbances were particularly severe at Kingstou, where buildings were damaged and the inhabitants are living in tents for safety.

Montreat, May 16—Queen Victoria hes been asked through Lord Aberdeen, and her consent is expecete to touch the button in London and thus start the big el-ctric works of the Lachine Hydraulic & Land Company, which is to supply some bun- dred tuensands of horse-power to Mon- treal. Eighty miles of conduits have been laid, and arrargements have been complet el with the Commercial Cab'e Company for the event. This is the largest electric installation in the Britieh dominions.

. St. John Sun: Mr. Davies aseerts that an alien Jabor bill can be passed by par- liameut to apply to persons coming into Ontario from the United States, but not into Quebec and the Maritime Provece. This is sectional legislation with a vengeance. As the Montreal Gazett ere- marks: “The wiedom of the law that would compel a United States citizen seek- ing*employmentin Ontario to go around by Quebec is of the undiecovered order.”

Wiwnnreec, May 16.—Dr. Joner, the dominion immigartion agent in the Scan- dinavian counties bas returned from the west where he has been visiting the foreign colonies previous to his departure for Europe. The doctor states that he found the settlers prosperous and coutented. In most cases rapid progress is being made, and the condition of colonists wili com- pare favorably with the best English settlenents.

E_porapo Canon, Nevaaa, May 16.—An Indian named A.uvote shet and killed two teamsters of the Southwestern mining Company named Lee Franzen and B:n Jones, on the Ore Road, between the miaes and the mill, yesterday, and then went on to the cabins of Christopher Neilson, a prospector, and Charles Monahan, and killed them also. It is feared that the Indian bas several more victims who lived alone on the route he probably took arter killing the teamstere,

Burrato, May 17.—A special to the Enquirer from New York says: Mr. Geo. A. Kittredge, who has been a merchant in Bombay, India, since 1862, arrived in the steamer Teutonic on Wednesday last. In an interview M:. Kittredge said: “Notas single person has yet died of starvation in India.” “ When I say that no one has died of starvation,” continued Mr. Kitt- redge,“Ido not wish to infer that the people of that country don’t need all the help that can be extended to them. The government and private charity are feeding 81,000,000 people, more than the total population of the United States. All the people are receiving enough money, little as it is, to keep them all alive. Bat, their condition could not be bettered. I do vot believe that grain could be properly’ dis- tributed, for it would take a very large or- ganization, formed for the purpose, to do the work in a beneficial way. How much better it would be to sni money, with which they could buy fo xd. The current reports of death from = starr- ation and the pictures exhibited show ng the natives in au emaciated and miserable candition are not only overdrawn, but are outrageously false. The people are in great need however, and belp should be given them, but I am sure money and not grain is whut is needed.”

Loxpox, May 17.—A despatch to the Daily Mail from Berlin says it is reported there that a plot to murder King George has been discovered at Aiheus, and that many arrests have been made.

Toronto, May 17.—The University of Toront» conferred the degree of LL. D. on the Right Honorable Lord Lister, the Right Honorable Lord Kelvin, 8ir John Evans, the Right Honorable Lord Ray- leigh, Dr. Wolcott Gibbs, Honorable Wil frid Laurier, and Honorable A. 8. Hardy.
