LIQUOR TRAFFIC
A Subject of Deep Interest in En-
gland.
More Restrictions to Be Placed
Upon 1t.

Many Prominent People Taking an Act
i've Part in Controlling its Bounds-The
Change, However, Cannot Take Place
For Year Yet.
LONDON, May 5,--The defenders Of the
British subjects liberty to drink and sell
spurious and malt liquors feel more con-
cerned than they are willing to admit at
the advance of the sentiment that more
restrictions must be placed upon the
traffic in alcoholic beverages.
The pulicans have for so many years
been accustomed to consider their busi-
ness thoroughly reputable one, that
they are indignant, not to say amazed at
the accessions to the ranks of the intelli-
gent minority, whose efforts they once
laughed to scorn; They are exasperated
that such men as Mr.. Goschen and Lord
Randolph Churchill. who have never
affiliated themselves with the Spartan
band of Sir Wilfrid Lawson, should in
the nations council calmly assume it
for granted that the liquor traffic must
be henceforth confined within bounds
that mark it as q menace to society.
The venerable Advertiser, so long the
organ of the licensed victuallers. thinks
that gloomy times indeed are coming
upon England. 1t is shrewd enough to
ooncede that the number of beer houses
should be lessened, but is alarmed at the
proposition to entrust the licensing pow
er to untried hands. Still great deal
Of consolation is naturally drawn from
the fact that no change is likely to oc-
cur before next year, during which in
terval the returning sense of the British
nation may make it manifest to the
nations legislators how dangerous it is
to attack great institution like the one
in question.
The fashionable clubs are up in arms
at the bare proposition to tax them
like common gin places. To be sure
they will be assessed if Churchill can
have his way at sum of say 1900
pounds or so, which will give them
realizing sense Of their superiority to
the vulgar Red Lions" or white
Hearts" but they feel in measure that
the eccentric nobleman is traitor to
his class and should be ostracised as

LONDON, May 5.--Mr. Gladstone has
written letter to Lloyd's News for pub

PARIS, May 5.-The position of affairs
in the department of the north continues
TO increase in gravity. At Turcoing the

The strikers are still successful in

ment. SO formidable has the move
ment become, that the heavy reinforce
ments, which have already arrived, will
not suffice to restore public confidence.
