4 Liberal Lord Wants to Know, You
Know. and Salisbury Informs Him.
LONDON, July lin the house of lords
last night Roseberry asked whether the
government would assist the inhabitants
of Heligoland desiring to remain British
subjects to settle in other parts of Great
Britain, and also whether Germany's right
to fortify the island was restricted The
cession of English territory, he declared,
was contrary to English usage ferries of
"hear"!l, and he hoped the government
would carefully consider the wishes of the
people inhabiting such territory.
The Premier's Reply.
Salisbury replied that he WAS not aware
that Goschen, chancellor of the exchequer,
was in possession of funds that could be
used TO settle the islanders in other parts
of the empire. He did not think such q
measure would be in conformity with the
wishes of the people of Heligoland Ev-
cry security had been taken to protect
their interests. The government had done
its best TO ascertain the wishes of the
islanders, although it is not taken plebis-
cite The government had not suggested
any limit to Germany's right to fortify
the island
