What the Editors Saw About It.

LONDON, Jan. 24.-The Standard thinks
that banquet ought to have been given
Lord Saekville. 1t heartily approves such
a demonstration to Phelps, the man, but it
is not equally sure that the demonstration
was appropriate to Phelps, the minister. 1t
says:
Our diplomatic relations with America are al.
together out of gear. Mr. Phelps certainly had
some hand in bringing about this undesirable
sltnatlon Such a banquet is generally under
stood to be mark OF confidence and esteem for
dplOmateS in their public capacity, and to indi-
cate on the part of this great city sense of the
Plnicable relations between our country and their
own. 1t cannot certainly be said that America,
at the present moment, stands to us in that posi-
ton. Ii the banquet to Mr.. Phelps should tend
to foster the idea that any number of the English
really think it does, then we repeat that 1t Is q
mistake very much to be lamented
Continuing in this same strain, it says:
Mr.. Phelps cast odious and unfounded imputa-
tions on Lord Sackvile, and has shown himself
ignorant or careless of international law. 1t is
extremely undesirable that England should get
the smiter too often We have nothing to say
that cai be disagreeahle to Mr.. Phelps, person
ally, but the recent action of the American gov
erninent seems to us to render the banquet mop
perfume, If not indecorous.
The Times says:
The demonstration was a remarkable one.
Seldom has more representative gathering been
seen at the table OF a Lord Mayor. The sincerity
questioned. 1t is rumored in the diplomatic
world that umbrage has been taken at the pre-
sentatior to Mrs. Phelps, because such an honor
has never been paid to the wives of
any of the ambassadors of the great
powers. We are sure that no feeling of that
kind can be entertained among persons of COM
mon sense or political sagaeity. When England
and America have been least friendly, a sense of
wounded and disappointed affection has been at
the bottom of the enlargement The God-speed
we wish to give Mr.. and Mrs Phelps is not q
formal diplomatic courtesy. but an interchange
of familiar kindness and among kinsmen.
The remainder of q long article is devoted
to eulogy of Mr.. Phelps.

Lord Salisbury referred to the assemblage
as testifying TO the esteem in which Mr..
Phelps was held. He said it was as distin-
guished a company as he had ever seen, and
certainly the largest legal representation
ever In the Mansion House.
Slr Frederick Leighton, president of the
Royal Academy, also spoke. He eulOgized
Mr.. Phelps, and predicted great future

Among those present were the Bishop of
Massachusetts, Senator McDonough and
the chiefs of the principal American bank
ing and commercial houses in London. The
Earl of Dunraven sent message saying
that he was unavOidably detained in Ire
land, and expressing d deep regret at his
inability to attend the banquet.

GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.
Joseph Chamberlain Again Demonstrates
that He Is a Tricky Politician.

-
LONDON, Jan. 4.-In his speech at Bir-
mingham, last night, Mr.. Chamberlain
made a suggestion that has created much
comment, and one which Will add to his
reputation of being tricky politician. 1t
was that the provisions of the Ashb0urne
act, which enables a tenant to acquire his
holding by borrowing from the govern
ment. be extended to England. At present
the act only refers to Ireland, where, under
its operations, many landlords have been
able to sell, ut full value, or, rather, at
their own valuation, farms that were
nearly useless to them. BY this suggestion
it is evident that Mr.. Chamberlain desires
to further ingratiate himself with the
wealthy landowners of England by open
ing TO them "a way TO unload II lot of un-
profitable holdings on unwary tenants.
The st. James Gazette, III a leader on the
subject to-day, gushes over the prospect,
and lauds the farsighted Joseph to the
skies. 1t predicts that the Birmingham
politician viii be the future Liberal leader.
though il is not easy to understand upon
what 1T bases its prediction.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Jan. 24-To-day's
story of the deadlock in the Legislature is
soon told. The Democratic House insists
on its amendment to the joint rules, leaving
to itself the unconstitutional right to refuse
to declare the result of the election for Gov
ernOr. The Senate refuses to recede, and
appointed conference committee to meet
like committee of the House, not yet
provided for, and which some ultra
men on the Democratic side said never will
be done. The Senate committee is COM
posed of one Republican and one Democrat.
If the House appoints a committee it will
be composed of two Democrats and one Re-
publican, and so place the Republican cause
at a disadvantage. When this phase of the
case is brought to President Carr's notice,
as it will be, he will add another
Republican to the Senate committee.
The Democrats openly declare there
shall be no compromise on their side,
and that the alternative would be for the
OF hold the deadlock to the end of the ses-
sion, In which case the returns would not
be opened, with the result telegraphed last
night. Strange stories of Democratic
schemes are afioat, and they will be devel-

than there was in the beginning
to doubt that Golf will be the
next Governor, because the people have
elected him; he has majority on the face
of the returns, and a close examination of
Judge Fleming's case shows it to be good
majority, in no way shaken by the attacks
of desperate politicians.
The Senate and House met in joint as
sembly, at noon, and balloted for United
States Senator, with the following result:
Golf, 3S; Kenna, IL; w. J.. Wilson, 10; A. A.
Gates, 2; +. w. Wilson. 8; K. G. Lynn, A;

The Democrats caucused tonight, and,
with the. twO-third rule, Kenna received
twenty mine votes, lacking one of being the
caucus nominee. There was one member
absent who will stand by him, giving him
the caucus nomination. This will insure
his reelection to the United States Senate.
Carr. the Union Labor delegate, did not 60
into the caucus, but has promised to sup
port Kenna on Joint ballot. The caucus adj
