GLADSTONE AND D1sRAELI.

A singular story was once related by
Mr.. Gladstone with reference to the
late Hon. Mrs. Francis Stonor. Mr.
Gladstone was asked during the sew
entities how he was able to bear with
out irritation the fierce political ait
tacks of Lord Beaconsfeld. then Mr..
Disraeli. He replied that Mr.. Disraeli's
onslaught had but little effect upon
him. for he remembered the following
incident: When Disraeli was assailing
Sir Robert Peel he was invited to a
dinner party, at which Mrs. Stonor,
then Miss Eliza Peel, was also a guest.
Mr.. Disraeli happened to sit near her
at dinner. and endeavored to enter in
to conversation with her. She met him
with marked GOODNESS, and replied to
his observations in monoSylIables and
with averted face. Mr.. DisraeI per-
sisted in his attentions. WhereupOn
Mrs. Stonor turned angrily upon him
and asked him what he meant by per-
scouting her with his distasteful So
ciety, having regard to his conduct to
her father Mr.. Disraei replied with
the greatest nonchalance: Really, Miss
Peel, I am surprised that you misun-
derstand me. l am a man of the world
I mean no unkindness to Sir Robert;
am only thinking of myself" yes,
said Mr.. Gladstone, 81 bear in mind
that Mr.. DisraeH IS only thinking Of
himself; the knowledge is an antidote
to irritation. "-Westrninster Gazette.

and the presidency was then assumed
by Hall Rifat.
Upon arriving at his home Kiamil
Pasha was taken ill., but on the fol-
lowing Thursday he was ordered to
Immediately take up the valiship of
Aleppo, and a special steamer was pre-
pared to convey him to his post the
same day.
Kiamil PaSha, however, refused to go
on board the steamer, declaring he
was too sick to travel. The COM
mander of the steamer then went to
the ex-grand vizier's residence and
strongly urged him to go on board,
threatening to remove him by force if
he did not do so. Kiamil thereupon
sent messengers to the representatives
of the powers and otherwise protested
so strongly that the Turkish comman-
der OF the steamer was afraid to carry
out his threat, and Kiamil kept to his
bed and did not start for Aleppo.
The new Turkish cabinet is being
most adversely criticised on all sides
here. 1t is regarded as a retrogade
body of ministers, and as likely to lead
to the most grave consequences.
1t is expected that the British fleet
has been reinforced by number of
battleships and that it is intended to
bring it UP in point of strength to the
fighting power of any combination of
fleets which can be formed in the Med
iterranean. The British fleet, it is also
reported, will shortly be reinforced by
several Italian Warships.

CHICAGO METHoD1sTs.
Session Enlivened BY Very Warm
Debate Yesterday,

CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-The meeting of
the Methodist Church Extension so
ciety was enlivened by another warm
debate tonight. 1t was started by the
report which will be presented to the
general conference at Cleveland in
May, 1896.
The feature which started the
trouble was as to the propriety of rec
ommending a limitation clause, pre-
venting assistance to churches costing
more than $4,000. The society was
formed for the purpose of assisting
needy churches in poor localities, and
particularly on the frontier. In the
report it was asserted that instead of
this laudable work. several very costly
churches have been added during the
past four years consequently the board
recommends to the general conference
that strict limit be placed so that no
church costing over $4,000 shall re-
ceive aid except in the most extraordi-
nary case.
The discussion continued for a long
time and the report was finally re-
turned to the committee for revision.
The final session was held this af-
ternoon. It was decided that all meet
ings of the Church Extension society
shall be held in Philadelphia hereafter

TALKED SUGAR.
CARLISLE LISTENS To AN ARGU-
MENT BY HENDERSON.
What the Senator From Nebraska
Contends Should Be Done in the
Sugar Cases-A Brief Filed.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9-Secretary
Carlisle today heard an oral argument
by Senator Henderson of Nebraska on
behalf of the Oxnard Beet Sugar COM
pany in support of it's claim for S11, 7S2,
under an appropriation contained in
the sundry civil act of March 2, 1895.
The senator also filed a comprehensive
brief on the subject.
The contention of the senator, briefly
stated, was that the commissioner of
internal revenue failed in his duty in
not sending his finding and allowance
of the Oxnard company to the secre-
tary Of the treasury instead of the au-
ditor; that the comptroller of the treas
ury had no jurisdiction of the matter;
that the case cannot go to the court
of claims because it is one which con-
gress itself has acted upon; because
section 1868 of the revised statutes is
repealed by section Is of the act of
1887, and because claimant does not
consent to such reference, the latter
act requiring such consent. Also that
if it be sent to the court of claims it
would neither have nor take jurisdic-
ton; that if it had, it could not enter
judgment and no appeal would lie,
and finally, that there is no lawful
right in the treasury to refuse eXecu-
ton of the law in this case.

Excited Public Feeling Resulting
From British Demands.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The first
intimation of an excited public feeling
in Venezuela, resulting "from the Brit
ish demands, reached here today IN
Caracas papers up to November l. The
prevailing sentiment is for immediate
war preparations, although some con-
sentative journals urge moderation.
The British ultimatum has not been
received, but the publication of its
substance aroused an outburst of patri-
otism.
Dario de Caracas, the serni-official
government organ, says: I'm case an
emergency should arise, and the gov
eminent of Venezuela is obliged to
resort to arms. the English will be
expelled from the disputed territory.

will be necessary only for the govern
ment to send a Geographic dispatch to-

pulsion carried out"
