THE PRIMROSE LEAGUE.
Lord Salisbury Makes Speech on the Politi-
cal Crisis


LONDON, May 6.-LOrd Salisbury pre-
sided at meeting of the Grand Habitation
of the Primrose League, held at Covent
Garden Theater to-day. The theater was
beautifully decorated and was crowded
with aristocrats. Salisbury delivered the
address, in which he declared great politi-
cal struggle was impending. "We have" he
said "to deal with the proposal for great
organic change, the conflicts OF the classes
shutting out from mems eyes the great issue
of the integrity of the empire" Salisbury
also said the opinion of LoyalisIs in Ireland
was not changed. The conditions with
which Ulster had to struggle appeared
clearer every day. He had been accused Of
attacking the Catholic religion. but nothing
was farther from his thoughts. What
Ulster had TO dread was being submitted to
the despotism of her foes. While Parlia-
ment had right to govern Ulster. 1t had no
right to sell the province into slavery. Any
attempt to use the English military TO sub
ject Ulster TO Archbishop Walsh would
rend society in two. Home rule is not mes
sage Of peace. but of civil and religious war.
81 believe" said the Premier, that the
title OF both kings and parliaments to obe-
dience from their subjects depends upon
those kings and parliaments observing the
fundamental laws and understandings
whereby they rule. Parliament has right TO
govern tho people with laws, but not right
to sell them into slavery" Enthusiastic
cheering II do not believe in the unlim-
tied and unrestricted power Of Parliament
any more than in such power of kings.
Parlaments, like kings, may take course
which, though technically within legal
limits, Is yet entirely at variance with the
understandings OF the constitution whereby
they rule"
His Lordship concluded by declaring
that ''unless the Conservatives and Liberal
Unlonists exerted themselves to prevent
that hideous picture from becomnga reality
they would produce a result which would
not secure home rule, but state of things
which would destroy the credit and enfeeble
the power of England in every quarter OF

New YORK, May e. The Tribune, through
its Albany correspondent, makes a thorough
exposure of the State census frauds. Edi-
torislly it says: "The census is deliberate
swindle. II is an essential part of the great
conspiracy which David B. Hill and Tam
many Hall have been prosecuting for the
last six months. The count was falsi-
fed in several ways. The number Of
actual citizens upon which the Legislature
apportonment is required by law to be
based was increased by the addition to il Of
certainly as many as 250,000 aliens. There
was no shadow Of excuse for this transfer.
1t was universally made with deliberate
dishonesty, because it was obvious the re-
suit would insure an increase OF the Demo-
cratic representatives in the Legislature.
Other frauds were made"

Indies
OMAHA, May g. - Bishop Mallalieu
presided at this mornings session of the
Methodist conference. The first order of
the day was the report Of Bishop Thoburn
Of India and Malaga. he said the church
is teaching the gospel in those countries in
thirteen languages. The work IN India is
in excellent condition, but its need is great
The membership has increased nearly 10000
the past four years. The attendance at Sun
day-schOOls has increased 1900, and now
rum beTs %, COO. There were $4,000 scholars
in the day schools. The people by thou
sands are giving up their idols The con-
ference then requested the committee ap-
pointed on a previous day to prepare a
resolution upon the Chinese exclusion bill
to report. Judge Lawrence submitted
report which stated that the COMMITTEES had
learned that the bill has already been signed
. by the President, therefore it was too late
TO take action until the exact wording Of the
exclusion bill was sscertained.
DR.. Swindells offered. a minority report,
20 have the question referred 20 the COM
mittee on the state or the church. He
feared the passage of the bill would leopard
iZe the lives and property OF missionaries In
China and wanted the matter considered
and disposed of so thatthe conference might
be thoroughly informed as to the actual
state of affairs The matter was finally re-
feTTed to another special committee OF FIVE
ministers and four aymen.
? During the discussion DR.. Leonard
denounced the President and Con-
RTess, and said that the Chinese had the
same rights here as other foreigners,
notably the Irish. Dr. Swindells said that
unless some action was taken tile country
would regard the conference as approving
of a bill which was the mUss iniQuitOus
measure ever passed by Congress. Dr.
Edwards of Chicago denounced the act as a
political measure. "The BILL" said he. ''is
sop TO the steeTsges now unloading in New
York. 1t was rushed through the Demo-
cratic House, passed by our noble Senators
and signed by our well-nigh unimpeaeha0le
President solely for political effect"
Dr. Payne Of Cincinnati said the church
should show that il was not controlled By
any partisan bids and the conference should
make plain 10 all that it does not approve of
such aapolitical measure, and finally moved
20 send the matter to the church committee.
DR.. Buckley denounced all reference to
politics, saying that the man who would try
TO build mp one party or Tear down another
IN this conference s nothing but de1a-
gogue, and there was a universal sigh OF
relief when the question was temporarily
disposed Of by reference.

work, and this plan will be followed 10 the

conference rendered a reception to DR.. w.
Z. Monlton, the distinguished delegate from

Odist church both In Europe and America.

THE FREE-sHIP BILL.

English Builders Becoming Alarmed at
Losing Their Trade.
LONDON. May 6.-Fithian's free-ship bill
and the report that the Inman line will
build two ships In America is causing con-
siderable discussion in English shipping
circles. The first effect of the passage of
Fithian's bill, according to English opinion,
will be TO advance the value of English
tramp screw-steamers. many of which will
replace the wooden side-wheel steamers
now engaged In the American coasting
trade. A subsequent result will be that
some OF the large Atlantic lines will be put
under the American flag. In regard to the
Inman line the Clyde builders hold that
building vessels In America will add one
quarter to their cost. besides the extra ex-
penditures for the wages Of officers, engi-
neers seamen and firemen.
