ENGLAND's CLAIM IN VENEZUELA
LansdOwne Deprecates the State
ment of Sir Edward Clarke.


London, Oct. 27.-The Marquis of Lans-
downe, secretary of state for war, deliver
ed a speech al Leeds tonight He took
occasion to deprecate the speech recently
made at York by Sir Edward Clarke, for
merry solicitor general, who said that
Great Britains claims in Venezuela were
not just. and that no honest or impartial
arbitrator or commission could decide in
Great Britain's favor on the evidence.
Lord Lansdowne declared that Sir Ed
wards statement was startling and Sc
rous one. Great Britain's claims had
been carefully investigated, and he be-
lieved that most of them could be sup
ported by satisfactory evidence.
Lord Lansdowne added that there was
reason to hope that the time was ap-
preaching when these questions would be
settled by arbitration or an amicable com
promise upon suitable conditions. When
the time came Great Britain would enter
court not for a moment believing that
every point would be decided in her favor,
but confident that her claims would be
found to be supported by evidence based
upon the established principles of interna-
tional law.

PHILADELPRIA's sHRIEvALTY.
A Fight to Keep Candidate on the
Republican Electoral Ticket.

Republican Electoral Ticket.
Harrisburg. Pa, Oct 27.-Argument was
heard to-day by the supreme court of this
state involving the question of the print
ing of the name of the independent re-
publican candidate for sheriff in Philadel-
phia upon ticket containing the names
of the Mckinley electors. The candidate
in question is a nominee of the democratic
party, and his candidacy has torn into
fractional differences the republican party
issue of sheriff The newspapers
of Philadelphia have divided up
on this question and have made
the most bitter personal attacks upon
each other The regular republican or
ganization sought to have this candidate
kept off the ticket containing the names
of the Mckinley electors, but the court
decided against them. In its opinion the
court takes occasion to most severely ar
raign certain newspapers of Philadelphia
for the criticisms they have passed on the
court in granting preliminary in1unc-
ton in the case. The court says that the
papers in question have attempted TO in
tiuence the action of the court through
their columns by holding up before them
the alleged spectacle of a whole commu-
nifty afflicted with bitter resentment
against them, and threatening them with
the implacable resentment of community
if the injunction be continued"
The judges also charge that these papers
mailed them marked copies of their edi-
lions containing such editorials aEd that
such an act was equivalent to that of Il
person seeking to influence the decision
of a judge by solicitation or threat The
court says that the difference is that the
papers have not the courage a man would
show in coming in person to a judge, for.
in that case, the judge could spurn him
from his presence. but in that of the
papers, I'VE can only express our indlg-
nation and contempt both for the matter
and the manner of their violation of the
principles which should govern decent
and honest journalism"

Report That Two squadrOns Are

A Report That Two SquadrOns Are
to Be Kept on This Side.
Montreal, Oct. 27-The Star publishes
the following cable from London; 1.-THE
report that the British fleet in American
waters would be doubled and that two
squadrons each of the strength Of the
present American. will be permanently
kept in Canadian and West Indian wat
ers, respectively, excited much interest
and it must be said, approval here. Nc
small uneasiness was created in officiaI
circles early in the year when the Nen9.
zuelan affair brought England and the
United States to what was believed to be
the verge of war by the knowledge thar
had the North Atlantic squadron left on
its usual West Indies cruise and the crisis
suddenly taken an ugly turn during its
absence, the Canadian and Newfoundland
coasts would have been at the mercy or
the United States warships."
1.-THE cable to the West Indies, except
that to Bermuda goes via the United
States and Cuba The British govern
ment would have been, therefore, at this
mercy of the United States telegraph
cally, and our government would havO
been unable to recall the squadron to Ca
madam waters.
"The report is not confirmed or de-
MED in official circles, but it will be sur
prising if a lesson during the recent crisis
had not been learned in Downing street"
