board to readmit Madison Page, who
was recently expelled from school on
the ground that ne refused to leave the
Civics club, a high school society, to

their claim of authority over it, the
youngsters will make fresh test of the
matter in the courts.

Havana, Jan. 21.-(From a staff cor

the rebels under Antonio Maceo. The

troops soon attacked and completely
routed them. The government losses
in the morning were one officer and one
private killed and one officer and four
teen soldiers wounded. General Luque

troops in the afternoon engagement.

MISSION OF THE SQUADRON
First Lord Of the Admiralty Explains
The Situation.
TO DlSPEL ALARMING RUMORS
The Flying Squadron Not Intended as a
Menace to Any Nation That Has
Navy-Its Destination Is No
where in Particular.

London, Jan. 2l,-The Right Hon. G.
j. Goschen, first lord of the admiralty,
made u speech at Cranstead today, IN
the course of which he said he wished
to dissipate the alarming rumors that
were in circulation. Referring to the
flying squadron. he said it was intended
for use in any emergency in any direc-
ton 1t would go to Beechaven without
taking sealed or other orders except to
proceed to that place and await instruc-
tions. The squadron was not intended
as a menace tsany country nor was 1t
destined for any particular quarter of
the world. 1t would be used as other
squadrOns are used
Mr. Goschen appealed to the public.
if they heard that the squadron had
been ordered anywhere. not to imagine
that it had been sent to menace any
body. The disposal of the squadron
could not be guided by political con-
as it is now. He denied the rumor that
the government meditated placing an
other squadron in commission. Never
theless. it could not afford to rest on its
oars. 1t did not propose to adopt sem
sational measures. but would continue
as hitherto to steadily augment the
number of ships, guns and men in order
to maintain supremacy on the sea and
to secure the nation from panic when
ever there We're clouds on the political
horizon

Secretary Makes Faces at the Nations Of
tho Earth.

Secretary Makes Faces at the Nations or
the Earth.
London. Jan. 21.-The Right. Hon. 10.
seph Chamberlain, secretary of state
for the colonies, delivered a speech to-
night at a banquet given by natives of
Queensland residing or visiting in Lon
don. A few weeks ago, he said, Great
Britain seemed to stand alone sur
rounded by jealous competitors and was
assailed with altogether unexpected
hostility. Long standing differences
appeared to suddenly come to head
and assumed threatening proportions.
The quarters whence she might have
looked for friendship and consideration
confronted her instead with suspicion
and even hate. England had to recog-
niZe that her success, however legiti-
mate, was imputed as a crime, that her
love of peace was taken as a sign of
weakness, and her indifference to for
eign criticism as an invitation to in
suit.
He regretted to be forced to admit
that such feelings existed. but he re-
joiced, seeing that they had found eX-
pession. No better service had ever
been done the nation. for 1t had enabled
her to show her face to the world. Eng
land, while resolute to fulfill her obliga-
tions, was equally determined to main
tain her rights (cheers) England. If
isolated, stood secure in the strength
of her own resources, in the firm reso-
luton of her people without respect to
party, and in the abundant loyalty of
her children from one end of the en-
pire to the other.
At the conclusion of his speech Mr.
Chamberlain was heartily cheered and
applauded.

London, Jan. 21.-The Globe this af-

ter of the United State Venezuelan COM
mission, suggesting that Great Britain
and Venezuela be invited 10 submit to
the commission all of the evidence in
their possession. The Globe says:
Great Britain will never allow this
monstrous claim to determine the terri
tory of British colony within its juris-
diction. No power could admit except
at the close of a long and disastrous
war Were such a demand made by
any other power. our only reply would
be to hand it's ambassador his passports
and mobilize the fleet. VIII these per-
nicious commissioners undertake to an
swer for the effect upon their own cOun-
trymen of forcing the premier to snub
the American secretary Of state?"
