The resolution adopted by the House Of
Commons. in which England practically Joins
hands with the United States in an endeavor
to substitute arbitration for war in the settle
ment OF international difficulties, means more
Than appears on the surface. IL representa- a
distinct advance toward that friendly union
which statesmen say the future will almost
surely see. IL Is especially Significant com
ing upon the BerlDg sea arbitration and Mr..
Csrnegie's article advocating union OF the
countries.
The entire prc.s and almost the entire pub
lie favor the Idea Of q closer union OF inter-
ests. The most casual observer cannot fall
TO note friendlier feeling of late between
the two countries. During the debate Mr..
Bayard, the new ambassador, sat In the
diplomatic gallery eagerly listening with his
right hand to his ear. He has spent the en-
tire week looking for n house to live iii
Monday he was received by Lord Rosebery
| and presented his credentials. The queen
wiD give him an audience on her return from
| Baltnora Mr.. Bayard ia member OF the
| Golden club and is 10 be dined by them next
! month.
| Negotiations between the committee Of the
| Irish party and the Cabinet regarding the n
| nnncial clauses of the Home Rule hill ate NOT
proceeding satisfactorily. Mr.. Gladstone,
| who Is largely In the hands OF the pcrmanen,
| officials Of The treasury In these matters and
| is himself notorious for being cxactire In
| dealings in behalf Of the ftatc, has grown
iu.tc luttictlDlc III lc luce OF silH III EuliIcuit
| and appeals of the Irish. In fact the inunelr
proposals he intends to substitute for thost
already In the bill instead Of being improve
ments are still less acceptable than the origi
| nal clauses.
Mr. Redmond, who has been consulted BY
Chief Secretary Morley on thc subject, hn'
Informed his followers privately that h'
warned Mr.. Morley that If the altered schem'
| L. submitted 10 the House he will resist II by
every means In his power and that u insertet
In the bill he will vote against its third read
ing. Mr.. Gladstone Is being pressed by thu
Jnionists 10 produce his revised iinancla
scheme, and he is pressing the Irish commit
tee In return TO agree TO it. This committee
consisting Of Mcssrs. Sexton, Healy an'
Blake, said that they were unable TO cousen
| to the financial proposals OF Mr. Gladstone.
or course, II the Irish members express IT
the House dissatisfaction with the tinGncla
scheme, and declare virtually that they coul'
not undertake to carry on the government o
ireland herewith, the bill win be dropped ant
n ministerial crisis will follow. 1t is to til
Interest both of the Irish factions and of gov
crnmcnt to prevent this. and II the minister
concede that the financial scheme shall onl
be experimental for a number of years tn
Irishmcn may swallow II ts very much the les
of two evils.
A remarkable exhibition was that of til
Kansas City frcmcn ut the international toul
namcnt this week. Their methods of savin
life and the wonderful rapidity with While
they got out their engine and ater-towt
were all novelties and were perhaps the MOI
Interesting part of the show. The American
and curiously enough the Portuguese, seer
10 have attracted the most attention at thi
tournament. Nothing like the modern appl
anccs of the Americans were ever seen on I'll
side of the Atlantic bcfore.-Cor. C2acGg
