LONDON, Nov. 1O-At Guild hall last night
Lord Salisbury had four topics. First, OF course.
came Ireland, OF which he said: at is not TO
legislation, but to q steady course of honest
government, If We can obtain 1T, that look for
the restoration OF prosperity to that country. L
DO not exclude legislation. II may be neces-
sary, but / should recommend as little OF 1t as
possible. That which we have should be under
taken with as little haste and as much caution
and prudence as We can command" His
second topic was Egypt. The limit OF Eng
lands stay there he said, is the limit OF work
she has to do. The progress made is real, but
the government has not yet attained point
where we can say for certain at what moment
the task will cease. Third came the eastern
question.
THE KIDNAPPING OF PRINCE ALEXANDER
he describes as great catastrophe-a midnight
conspiracy OF officers whom the prince had led
to victory. Debauched by foreign gold, they
turned against him, hurting him from his
throne. After this contribution to peaceful In
ternationai relations, he went on TO say that
Austria and Turkey, holding territories in the
Balkan peninsula, at whose door these events
were taking place, looked upon them without
apprehension. The English government would
seem unduly fastIdiOus to consider its interests
threatened when Others did not. Austria is on

OF England. Fourth, he touched upon
THE DISTRESS IN LONDON.
For this, he said, practically there was no
help but another Mansion house fund. Upon
which the only comment needful is that the

dition of the London working classes, writing

LIEUT.. ARNOLD'S TRIAL.
COmmissiOneF Wheatley to Take Tes.
timOny and Report it Co His Col.
le0guea.

The District Commissioners thought to-day
that they might have to postpone the trial of
Lieut.. Arnold, set for Friday, until some other
day. on account of the death in Maj. Walkers
family. Commissioner Wheatley said to-day
that he would sit at the trial simply to take
testimony, having been designated by the
board for that purpose. He doubted, even.
whether he would make any report on the
case, or do any more than submit the testi-
mony to the Commissioners, as a board, who
would pass upon it, He thought it best to do
this, especially in view of the statements made
that he would be prejudiced in favor OF Maj.
Walker because he appointed Maj. Walker.
AS matter OF fact, he said, Maj. Walker
was appointed by the Commissioners and not
by himself alone. Col. Ludlow, speaking of the
matter, said that the Commissioners were not
prejudiced. Mr.. Davis, the assistant attorney
of the District, would appear, not as prosecuting
attorney, but to assist In making full presen.
tation of the case, as judge advocate appears
in a court martial. Lieutenant Arnold will be
represented by counsel. The Commissioners
have not yet decided whether the hearing will
be public or not

LONDON, Nov. 1O.-Yesterday's show passed
according to my anticipation. There was a
little disorder, which was Immediately sup
pressed. One socialist put himself in the way
of arrest in order to test the legality of the po
lice prohibition OF the meeting. The striking
feature of the day was the fact that the social
ist meeting was held exactly as announced ia

people were congregated, at the hour named.
II was addressed By half a dozen speakers. A
dozen red flags kept waving ali the time. Res
olutions were passed in due form, and the inev-
liable ode to anarchy from Shelley was recited.
The socialist leaders kept out Of the way.
Among the speakers 1 only recognized one man
who has figured before in the socialist agi-
tation. The socialists claim to have

money can be temporarily diverted from the

that purpose. The War department, he said, is

that the Canadi line is TO become an active

tions westward Will end Ior the present. But
the Canadian Pacific has, il is asserted, con-
cluded traffic contracts with the Wabash and
baltimore and OHIO which give IL running

that this is not All. For two years the Canadian
Pacific had engineers in the field marking out .
line from Woodstock TO Niagara Falls. and it is

early in the spring. Up 10 the present the
Michigan Central and Canadian Pacific have

has demanded of the Michigan Central on sew
eral occasions that rates VIA Montreal TO Boston
and New England points be equalized with
those via the New York Central and Boston
and Albany, which, OF course, has been refused,
discriminate against, Or, rather, put the Cana
