CALLS THE BRITISH.

London Papers Comment on the Fact
That Protection Was Asked Of Benham.
LONDON, Feb. 24.-The story cabled
to the press here by a news agency say
ing that the commander Of the British
squadron at Rio de Janeiro has refused
to protect British merchant vessels in
obtaining water is generally discredited,
but has aroused considerable feeling
upon the subject.
The Daily Telegraph, as already
cabled, urges the public to be cautious
m accepting the story. and adds:
admiral Benham has decided to
support the right of American vessels
to enter the port in spite of the block
"de. and is determined to meet force
with force if necdful. This is all very
we'll from a spread-eagle standpoint, but
Il blockade is a blockade, and imposes
hazardous difficulties. Nevertheless,
We commend Admiral Benham for his
obvious desire to limit the sutferings of
trade
The Globe, referring to the same sub
jects. remarks:
OF the news Is true. it is the duty of
England to demand immediate apology
for Admiral Benllam's extraordinary
conduct. His action III giving protec-
ton to the Naslnyth was an unwar-
ranted interference. Admiral Benham,
no doubt. is at perfect liberty to bully
the Brazilians as he pleases, or as his
superiors permit. But when it comes
to offering an injurious insult to the
British navy it is quite a different mat
ter. His whole action in the blockade
would be described as 'bluster' in this
country.
The st. James Gazette says that it is
intensely irritating to be informed that
a British ship had to seek the protection
of Americans, adding:
"Surely Lord R~oseberry does MOI
acquiesce in the so-called Monroe doc
trine,' that the sole right to interfere be-
longs to the United States. We hope
that the action will not be allowed to
pass without protest"

TO CHANGE RULES.
A Call For u House Caucus For That
Purpose Receives Plenty of Sig
natures,
And One Will Undoubtedly Be Called
as Soon as BANDS Bill Is Dis
posed OF.
DiSOrderly Demonstration In the
House OH Thursday the Direct
Cause Of the Call.

WAsHISGToN, Feb. 24.-Mr. Holman
of the Democratic house caucus COM
mittee says that a caucus will be called
to consider a change in the house rules.
by which members may be compelled to
vote to make a quorum. The call is in
response to a written request signed by
lO4 Democratic members. The request
Is a direct result of the uproarious dem
onstration in the house Thursday.
Representative Paynter of Kentucky
circulated the call and there was a rush
to get on the paper. 1t contains the
names of the leading democrats of the
house, among them being Cultivate of
Ohio. a member Of the com mittee on
rules.
Bland Not on the Call.
The name of Bland is not on the call,
for while he is severe in deprecating
disorder, he says public opinion should
rebuke those responsible for it, and that
a change of rules is not desirable. The
New Workers are also an exception to
the delegations which have signed the
call. They are not anxious to strengthen
the rules. and thus increase the chances
of the passage of a bill such as the one
now pending.
With these exceptions, the call repre-
sents all shades of opinion in the house,
the anti-silver men as we'll as the silver
men. The call had not been PRESENTED
to MIR. Holman up to noon, as sigma
lures were still being recorded. He
said, however, that the number of
names secured insured the caucus being
called, and that he would call it for he
earliest date practicable.
The call particularly asks that time
be set after the pending bill is disposed
Of, AS there is no desire to complicate
the present situation by a change of the
rules in the midst of a debate. The call
is also careful to avoid committing
members to any specific plan for chang
ing the rules. Most of those who have
signed are ready to go to the extent of
counting a quorum, and the only ques-
ton among them is how the quorum
can be counted without subiecting the
majority to the charge of adopting what
have been termed Reed rules"

A Specimen.

Last evening about o'clock Assis"
tant Superintendent P. j. Connolly
and Attorney Jno. Nj. Taylor, of the
St. Louis Southwestern railroad, were
seen walking hurriedly up the street
in search of r. Lee johnson, deputy
U. S. Marshal at this place. On in
vestigation a Commercial reporter
learned that these officials desired the
services of the marshal for the pur-
pose of serving injunctions from the
Federal court upon some strikers at
this place, who have been talking too
much to suit the railroad officials, and
they desire to show that their power
was greater than that of Debs. and ev-
en- equal to that of the Gar of all the
Russias, and by the injunctions close
the lips of the men who are now out
of work, or else place them behind
prison bars.
The injunctions were served on sew
eral, and it prohibits the men from,
persuading or intimidating other men
now in the employ of the railroad com
pany. An official of the road told the
reporter that some of the strikers were

It is not difficult to foresee the cam
I. Filley has been reinstated as boss
of the Republican party and he will
henceforth WELD more power than
ever. He is the most unscrupulous
politician in the state and is the shrewd-
est manager the Republicans ever had.
/ That he has. even this early, formed
an alliance with the ''A. P. A." there
can be no doubt. From Col. r. G. Kerens
comes the announcement that to his
certain knowledge five of the Republi-
can central committeeman are rabid
members of the "a. P, A." organiza-
tion. Col. Kerens ought to know what
he is talking about. Judging from the
actions of the platform committee of
the state convention, the ga. p. A."
sentiment ruled. The committee pos
itively refused to adopt anything con-
trary to the wishes of the ga. P. A."
men. In fact, it looks like the Repub
lican state convention was an ga. P. A. :"
reunion, and that organization certain
ly accomplished allits designs. II there
was anything the "a. P. A." wanted
it didn't ask for it. How different
was the manly, clearcut expression of
the Democratic convention. It didn't
seek to avoid any responsibility, but
denounced the ga. P. A." organiza-
ton as intolerent and un-American.
Two years ago the "a. P. A. fought
the Democratic ticket, and 1t will do so
again. On the coinage of silver the
Democrats were outspoken, while the
Republicans sought to dodge the entire
issue. In place of coming out either
on the side of the Lord or the devil,
the Republicans are trying to maintain
a straddle.
AS the two parties are arraigned
against each other in this state, the
Democrats represent strong principles
expressed in plain language and the
Republicans hypocrisy expressed in
language that may be distorted to mean
almost anything. By clever Juggling
of words they will endeavor to be on all
sides of all questions.-Jeferson City
