SPEECHES ON THE

Lords Rosebprry and Salisbury
Have a Sparring Match.
Special to The HERALD q.

hOlQOils CD. - u - IiiINO
Of Wales, the Duke of York, the
Duke of Connanght, the Mar
quis of Salisbury, and other
distinguished personages were
among those present at the
house of Lords during the read
ing of the Queens speech
Lord Roseberry complained of
the meagre program of the
government. He referred 10 the
ominous omission in the queens
speech of the usual reference
of friendship with foreign pow
ers. He ridiculed the fulsome
eulogy bestowed upon the col
onial secretary, Mr.. Chamber
lain, "as if no previous British
minister ever did his duty
He warned Mr.. Chamberlain, in
Boosting of his conduct of the
colonial policy not to indulge
in puerile reflections calculated
needlessly to irritate the foreign
powers. The Venezuelan diff
ficulty, he said, was no new
one and they had all tried their
hands at it, but now the in
tervention of The United States
offered a guarantee of the per,
Torrance of settlement, that
might be effected. He inter-
preted the reference in the
queens speech to mean that
some negotiations were pro
ceeding between England and
America. He rejoiced at that
announcement because it in
dicated a way to issue from
the predieament produced by
Lord Salisbury's dispatch and
President Cleveland's message,
and gave promise that the
United States would see that
Venezuela faithfully executed
any settlement arrived at. He
welcomed the movement on
both sides of the Atlantic in
favor of permanent arbitration.
Turning then to the subject Of
Armenia, Lord Roseberry said
he hoped the house would re-
ceive fuller information than
was contained in the curt, cold
allusion in the queens speech.
Lord Salisbury's brave words
toward the Sultan, he said, had
not been followed by brave
deeds. The noble marquis had
been forced TO abandon the
cause of the Armenians. Surely
some course might have been
adopted between a crusade and
apathy.
Lord Salisbury, replying to
this criticism, said: mo sym
pathy with the Armenians
would justify us in forcing
calamities compared with viii L
the Crimean war would sink
into insignificance. Referring
then to Venezuela, Lord Sails
bury concurred in Lord Rose
berry's views that Americas
mixture in the dispute had
conduced to satisfactory results
more rapidly than if the Unit
ed States had not interfered.
Il think we shall perhaps find
some satisfactory settlement,
and all danger of rupture be-
