FROM EUROPE By CABLE.

LcNDoN. Sept. 16-The registration OF voters
for the Parliamentary elections, whieh CON
meIce about the 18th Of November, is being pro-
secuted with great diligence throughout the
British isles. Az many places women formally
demanded that their names be placed upon the
list OF voters on the ground, that they possessed
the property qualification prescr bed by the
Reform bill. The legal aspect of the question,
as well as the extent OF the movement, has
excited much public interest OH the subject.
over six thousand women claimed the right TO
be registered In Manchester alone, and their
demands were urged III an able speech before
the registering official, by Miss Lydia Becker.
After an argument on both sides the claim was
disalOwed.
similar proceeding took place in other
towns, and in some cases the question was re-
served for legal decision. A case has 6nally
been brought before the judges at Westminster,
and they have overruled the application of
women to be registered as voters, on the ground
that an amendment to the Reform bill, which
was proposed in the House OF. Commons by Mr..
Mill, substituting the word ''person" tor
man." was rejected, and that by this action the
House clearly indicated the intent and purpose
OF the bill in this respect.
LONDON, Sept. 16.-It is reported in Paris that
the speech of the King of Prussia at Kiel ex-
cites no anmosity in the French Cabinet, where

reference merely to events OF 1906, and not sus-
ceptible OF any application TO the present state
OF affairs in Europe. The Montteur has tram

tons of the great Powers, and considers the
situation as calm and peaceful.
LONDON, Sept. l6,-The Importation of hay

PARIS, Sept. 16.-M. Guizot, the distinguished
historian and author, has an article in the last
number of the Reoue des DeuT Mondes on the

peace Of Europe, he urges on him the reduction
of the army as the only effective pledge OF peace.

BosToN, Sept. 16. The annual Salisbury Beach
Festival took place to-day a. Salisbury. Gene
raj Butler was present and addressed The crowd
He spoke of the harvest gathered and being
gathered at the present time and considered it
a manifestation of Providence in our behalf
Abundant barvess insured prosperity to the
people. He touched briefly upon the subject of
taxation, and said we were The best ana worst
taxed people on earth.
The great debt of the country, which caused
this, was something for US to be proud Of. 1t
ves a constant reminder of the glorious results
OF civil war; We owed at the close of the war,
in various forms, some three billions Of dollars.
lie spoke OF this with pride, because it sno wed
the resources Of credit and strength of the
American people, which surpassed the resources
OF any other country on earth. Countries in
which money was in the hands Of few princes
and mobiles could Iaise no such sums as we did
10 carry on war, and our contest had shown US
the power of the agereP alton OF small sums.
He believed that Gods providence was mani
fest in the war, and the Almighty intended to
wipe out every vestige OF slavery. In support
OF this last point he showed that in the South
there was nothing lett out lands and negroes,
and all the fruits of slavery had passed away. 1t
took three billions from the North to free the
slaves, which was the amount that section
realized from slave labor during its existence.
The General was frequently applauded.

sippi struck sunken wreck, and knoocked a
hole in her bottom The pumps were lmme-
