Henry George Talks ior ha
New YORK, April 21.-In an interVie"
with Henry George, who has returned
from England, he says: 81 delivered lee
lures to large and enthusiastic audiences
in every portion Of England, and, while IN
q number OF cases they were against me
at the start, never, except in one or TWO
cases, where the audiences were composed
entirely Of the ~land-owning element, did
fail to convince them before l finished. In
Liverpool the audiences were dead against
me at the start, but when / finished, reso'
lutions were unanimously adopted in favoi
of taking the land, without q cent OF com
pensation to the present owners. l have
formed an English and Scotch Land he
demption League in every large CITY IN
the United Kingdom. and the work will
go on until the desired end Is attained
The clergy, professional men, and the
| higher order of mechanics, who seem TO
| take the most interest in the matter,
| are more easily reached by logical
| argument, I find the mass of working peo-
| ple in a much worse and more degraded
| condition than those here. They are con-
| seduently hard to reach with any effect.
| regard Chamberlain as the coming man
| in England, and while he has taken nc
| decided stand on this land question, be
| has said enough to make me confident
| that as soon as the people are ready to fol.
low in the reform movement, he will be
ready to lead. The Irish National League
| has, with the exception Of Michael
Davitt, who is in bad order with his party
for his adherence to principles, has for
saken the principle on which the Land
| League was established, and has taken up
| the idea of peasant proprietorship, conse-
quently / not only received no aid from
the League, but was in some instances
| bitterly attacked by their organs.
A Ship Afre Makes $50 Miles.
BERMUDA, April 21.-The French
| steamer Marseilles, from New Orleans,
| bound to Bordeaux, was discovered to be
| on fire three days after leaving New Or
| leans. A terrible gale was prevailing at
| the time. The matches were opened and 90
| bales Of cotton i~ettisoned, but the fire was
| 80 intense that the crew and passengers,
| though working with the energy of men
| anxious to save their lives, had to abandon
| operations; not, however, before several
| cases of asphyxiation had occurred. The
| matches were then battened down, and it
| was decided to sail for Bermuda, $50 miles
| distant. On arriving there, with the as
sistance of the naval authorities the fire
was finally extinguished. Had the deck Of
the vessel been entirely Of wood, nothing
could have saved the ship.
