ENeLAsD's WARNING To FRANCE.
The speech in Parliament Has an Tn
favorable Facet on Change.

favorable Eject on Change.
London. March 2s.-sir Edward Crews
remarks in the House OF Commons last
night produced disquieting effect on the
stock exchange this morning. French
rentes fell = and consols and Egyptian
unified s.
Commenting on the present aspect OF
the Anglo-French situation. the Globe
says: England can safely call upon the
world to judge whether she should face
frances deliberate provocations in Al
RIGA and Slam, or whether it would be-
come the dignity Of Great Britain to
turn the other check to the smiter any
longer"
The Pail Mall Gazette says: France is
warned since last evening that she has
not a shred of pretence that she doesn't
know that her advance into the Nile
valley would be regarded by England as
an act Of open and avOwed hostility"
The Star says: I'VE deeply mistrust
the statement of Sir Edward Grey in
the House of Commons last evening.
which was latent TO France; first, because
it is the fruit OF new spirit that has
unhappily crept into liberal foreign pol
icy, and second because We are aghast
at the magnitude Of the claims to which
we are thereby committed"
The Daily News correspondent in Paris
says: m. Lamarzell has given notice Of
a question to M. Hanatoux, minister OF
foreign affairs, in the Senate as to Sir
Edward Grey's statement. NJ Hanatoux
conferred with Premier Ribot and agreed
to reply on April A. The official world
does not see any quarreisome intention
in Sir Edward Greys declaration. but the
latter has fallen with startling effect upoa
those wanting to climb into great finan-
cial and political situations through
Africa
The Daily News learns from its Cairo
correspondent: Sir Edward Grey's state
ment has caused a profound sensation
here. 1t is the absorbing topic. The An
glophobe section is especially struck by
the clear. firm attitude of the govern
ment. The declaration cannot fail to
have good effect here"
The News is Informed that a cabinet
meeting will be held tomorrow to con-
slider foreign affairs.
Paris, March %. The De-
bats says in commenting upon
Sir Edward Grey's statement before the
House of Commons last evening: These
denominations are unfounaed We do
not admit that Frances silence as to
England's claims to the Upper Nile region
meant consent. france was no party TO
England's treaty with Germany and Italy.
in which these claims were admitted We
must object TO Sir. Edward Grey's con-
founding British and Egyptian rights. The
khedive, in the eyes of France, is the sole
and legitimate chief under the sultan's
sovereignty. We do not know that we
have any expedition on its way to the
Upper Nile region. but we do know that
France under all circumstances will rec
ognize the porte's and Egypt's rights to
the Upper Nile, and nobody's else"

Inhuman Treatment and Gross Mis-
management Proven.
Denver, COL March 29.-The Colorado
assembly met in joint session last night
to listen to the report of the investigation
made Of the prison reformatory at Buena
Vista. The utmost secrecy was made Of
this investigation and no acts had been
made public in advance. Powerful friends
of the interested parties have strenuously
denied the truth OF the rumors Of mis-
management and inhuman treatment. The
report is damaging in the extreme In
his letter transmitted the governor says
the findings are fair arid are fully sus
tanned by the evidence. He declares that
no excuse can be offered for the inhuman
and unjust punishment, sanitary condi-
tions, haphazzard parcelmg of criminals
and dishonest purchase and disposal Of
provisions. He ends by saying that the
institution has been a reformatory only
in name
The committee report finds Deputy
Warden Hoyt guilty of inhuman and cruel
treatment and in appropriating for his
private use supplies and provisions de-
signed for the use Of the criminals. The
board is strongly condemned for misman-
agement.

Various Matters OF Interest From

Thomasville. Ga. March 2s.-EM Whit
ney. the son of the inventor Of the cotton
gin. who has spent the winter in Thorn
asville. left for home to-day. Mr.. Whit
ney was born in 1926 and is a well-pre-
served man.

weeks illness.
Victor F. Lawson. proprietor Of the
Chicago Record. is stopping at the Mitch
ell.
The recent pardon Of Eugene Howard,
Of this county. by Gov. Atkinson does
not meet the. approval OF our best peo-
pie The only possible reason for il is
that Howard is a white man. and that
reason is worse than none. He stole a
lot OF corn and fodder and plead guilty
to the charge. The sentence was only
$50 or four months. The excuse is given
that Towards family needed his work
This same excuse would well nigh empty
the penitentiaries if worked out to its
legitimate results. 1t is hard enough to
convict criminals; troublesome and ex-
pensive, and when they are convicted to
have them turned loose is discouraging
As it is, many good citizens suffer more
or less petty pilferings and steal.ngs,
rather than go to the trouble and annoy
ance of having the guilty people pun
ished Such acts as this pardon of How
ard by the governor will most certainly
not encourage citizens to try to have the
laws enforced

in New York Wednesday night by drink

Shear and his wife lived happily to-

ried about four months ago, he said.
Wednesday she told her husband she had
drank couple of glasses of beer. He re-
proved her, and she got a glass and
poured a dose Of carbolic acid into it and
drank it. She was taken to a hospital and
died in few hours.
Nobody hear seems to know Shear IN

any one who had ever heard of him. His

ST. Paul, Mimi, March 29.-Reports
which have been coming to the grain and
elevator men the past four or five days
from the country have been very dis
quieting. Last fall. when the ground froze,
it was in the dryest state ever known in
the northwest. The snow fall during the
winter was very light. Up to date very lit
tie rain has fallen, yet farmers have been
forced by the open spring to go to work
and get in their crops. Wherever they are
a work they are enveloped in a cloud of
dust. Such situation has never before
been known in the northwest. The lack
of moisture in the soil at this time of the
year is without parallel in this region.
