BRITISH EVACUATION OF EGYPT.
LONDON, Aug. 31.-In the House
of Commons DIR. G.. B. Clarke,
radical member from Caithnes-
shire, in order to raise a debate
upon the question of England's oc-
cupatiOn of Egypt, moved to re-
duce the foreign office estimates.
In support of the motion he de-
clared it was time the government
should do something in the line of
the evacuation of Egypt.
Mr.. George n. Curzon, under
foreign secretary, thought it was
not the occasion upon which to
debate so large a question, in
view of the fact that the atten-
dance of the house was greatly de-
pleted and in the face of the empty
opposition from the bench. Com
pretending the absence of Sir Will
liam Harcourt and many of his
colleagues in the government, he
(Curzon), declined to enter into
the question. He would only say
he saw no signs of drift in the
English position in Egypt.
Sir Charles Dixie, radical, in
sisted that England was bound in
honor to evacuate Egypt.
After a brief discussion the mo-
ton submitted by DR.. Clarke was
withdrawn.

A LAWYER KIDNAPPED.
While Drunk Thrilling Experie nee.


BUFFALO, NY, Aug.3l-Henry
Fitzgerald, a well known attorney
was kidnapped Sunday night and
and held until he paid for
his liberty. Early in the evening
Fitzgerald met three toughs and
at their invitation went to an
opium joint on Michigan street.
When they got him in the room
they fell on him and after choking
him until he was almost insensible,
chained him to chair. They then
presented a check for 800. He re-
fused at first to sign it, but several
hours in a cramped position caused
him to change his mind and he gave
them a check for $50. After giving
the check he was allowed togo. Mon
day morning he stopped payment
on the check but it was cashed by
a saloon keeper through the Ger
man Bank, and was sent to the
Farmers bank for collection.
When the cashier of the German
bank learned of the circumstances
through the check he sent for the
saloon keeper and forced him to re-
turn the money which he was hold
ing for the gang. Fitzgerald had
been drinking heavily when he
fell in with the kidnappers. He
defined to make complaint against
his aSSailentS.
