The Governments Foreign Policy
Attacked by Liberals.
SCORED FOR ARMENIAN ATTITUEE
British South African Company De-
nounced-AHarcOurt Regrets Delay
in Settlement of the Venezue-
Ian Boundary Dispute.

London, Feb. 12.-In the house of
commons Sir William Harcourt, the
liberal leader, opposed the address in
reply to the queens speech. Referring
to the brief reference to the Venezue-
Ian boundary dispute, in which sfe
said she expressed sympathy with
the desire to come to an equit-
able arrangement, and trusted th"t
further negotiations would lead
to a satisfactory settlement, Mr..
Harcourt said: ''It was in - the
highest degree desirab BILE that the mis-
understanding between Great Britain
and the United States over the Monroe
doctrine should be removed in both
countries at the earliest possible mo-
ment. The government of the United
States had expressed desire to CO.
operate in a friendly solution of the
dispute between Great Britain and
Venezuela, and he was rejoiced to see
in the speech from the throne that the
prospect was welcomed. The only
practical question remaining was
whether in the Venezuelan difficulty
there had been any invasion of the
rights of the United States, as upon that
point no pronouncement had been made
by the United States government" ="
1t was, in his judgment, doubtful
suggestion whether the United States
could cooperate in the settlement of
the Venezuelan difference in default
OF that governments having inSits
possession all of the information bear
ing thereon which was at England's 8
disposal. He, therefore, regretted the
delay in the publication of the case of
Great Britain, and demanded that a

Actor Mansfield's Unique Idea for Trans

Actor Mansfield's Unique Idea for Trans.
porting Thousand Books.
Richard Mansfield, the noted actor, who
is soon to appear at the Baldwin Theater.
has introduced novel idea into the pri-
vate car in which he travels. He carries
about with him wherever he goes so MANY
volumes OF books that it has heretofore
puzzled his ingenuity where to convent
emily store them in his car so as to be able
to lay his hands on any volume at any
moment. twas impossible to place them
on open shelves, as the swinging of the
car to and fro and the continual jarring
would naturally overturn them. A new
device has therefore been made use of by
him which bids fair to be quite practical.
He has had false siding made to fit the
the regular wall, so that hundreds of vol
umes can there be conveniently stored
without the slightest bother The arti-
ticial wall is so skillfully arranged that il
can be raised in strips at will, and the
books are disclosed as though resting ON
the shelves of a bookcase.
1t is.estimated that Mr.. Mansfield car.
ries about with him while Ell tour 1000
books, and is constantly referring to them.
Mr.. Mansfield has raised himself TO a COM
manding position in the dramatic profess
sion within a remarkably brief period.
He will bring his Garrick Theater Com
pany from New York with him. In addi.
ton to ''Beau BrummelI," which has been
seen here, Mr.. Mansfield will present his
latest success, 1.-The Story of Rodian, the
Student" founded upon Dostoyeyski's

COMPARED TO
A GAS BUBBLE,
Rev. Mr.. Goodwin's Criti-
cism Discussed by DR..
Voorsanger.
THE JEWS IN AMERICA.
Defense of the Assertion That
the Number Is Two
Million.
HIS CLAIM TO THE PLATFORM.
The Rabbi Maintains That He Spoke
With Propriety-Mr. Goodwin
Called Ignorant.
HIS CLAIM TO THE PLATFORM.

Rev. DR.. Jacob Voorsanger defends his
assertion that there are 100000 Jewish
people in the United States. He also in a
pointed manner answers Rev. Mr.. Good
wins criticism about the address which
the rabbi delivered at the ministers meet
inc on Monday.
When interviewed by CALL representa-
tive last night DR.. Voorsanger declined to
talk about the matter, stating that he in
tended TO prepare an elaborate reply.
II do not wish TO say anything at pres
ent," he declared. 'This letter that Mr..
Goodwin has written is m erely an old gas
bubble of the kind that has been so COM
mon of late"
Have you statistics to support your
assertion that in the United States there
are 2,000000 persons of the Hebrew faith ?'
was asked
II have" the rabbi replied, "and I will
present these now. They are as written by
Mr.. Goodwin, who says in his letter to
The CALL:
The United States census for 1890 gives 533
congregations of Orthodox and Reformed
Jews with 130, 1876 members, and these statis-
tics were given by Philip Cowen of the Ameri-
can Hebrew and are supposed 10 be reliable 1t
is true mat only the head OF the family is
counted in Jewish congregations.
"Mr. Goodwin adds that 1T is hardly
thinkable, however, that each head of a
family represents fifteen persons-albeit
the Jews generally adhere closely to the
injunction given TO Adam as to posterity.
The 80, 1856 Hebrew church mem bers
represent, as is admitted, only heads of
families. That number must be multiplied
by FIVE to give the number of individuals
in the families connected with the congre-
cations. That gives us 652, ,4s0 persons.
again, in the large communities only
about % per cent OF the Hebrews usually
belong to the congregations. Figuring it
out on that basis there would be 2,6O9, 800
Jews in the United States. But we will be
more modest about it. Let US say that the
percentage of those connected with the
congregations is 33I5 per cent That
makes the number 1857, 7,440, which is
pretty close to my assertion"
Taking up the subject of the Monday
meeting of the ministers DIR. yoorsanger

RELATIVE KNOWLEDGE.
Professor Griggs Lectures at the Acad
envy OF Natural Sciences.

Professor Griggs Lectures at the Acad-
emy OF Natural Sciences.
A large and appreciative audience en-
loved Professor Edward Howard Grlggs'
lecture on ssThe Relatively of knowledge"
last night in the lecture-room OF the Acad-
emy of Sciences.
All human knowledge, the brilliant
young Stanford professor contended, was
relative. 1t took the ancients some time
to arrive at realizing sense of this truth.
For example, Pythagoras and his school
teaching. One, they said, indicated the
unity from which all other things proceed
two, being an addition to one, signified di-
versity, while three, being the union of
one aud two, was made to figure the uni
verse or the combination of the creative
unity with the created diversity. Others
confounded soul and body, mind and mat
ter, and, while recognizing qualitative diff
ferences, sought to solve all problems by
rules of their own devising.
The Sophists, the Atomistic Theorists,
the Stoics and the Epicureans all had diff
fering solutions for the enigmas which
confront the human intelligence at every
turn.
Socrates, said Professor Griggs, arrived
pretty near the secret of true wisdom. One
day he consulted an oracle which IN an
swers to his questions told him he was the
wisest man in Greece. The great philoso-
pher accepted the oracular utterance in a
way singularly worthy Of his modest SIM
plicity. every one in Greece he rea-
soned, "thinks know something, whereas
| know that l know nothing; hence l am
wiser than they all"
The San Francisco call., 1896-04-09
this discussion at present, but see that
Mr.. Goodwin says:

N~<N-'
Mr.. Goodwin says:
Rabbi Voorsanger appeared among the Meth.
odist ministers yesterday morning unan-
nounced and unlimited, so far as appears, and
proved his courage, ii not his courtesy, by
making number of suggestions that proved
his direct lineal descent from those who made
some similar but more violent suggestions
to the converted Jews, Paul and Silas, in
Philippi several years ago.
"In criticism of my speaking he shows
more ignorance than courtesy. My visit
to the conference was the result of CORE
spondence with DR.. Urny, the president
of the Ministers Association. 1 was not
unannounced, whether | was invited or
not And it is question in my mind
whether one cannot properly go to an
open meeting OF that kind.
II will say that l need no lessons In
courtesy from Mr.. Goodwin. II he can
point out wherein l have been discour-
teous | would like to have him do so; if
not. he ought to go to a kindergarten
where they teach how to be courteous.
"Mr. Goodwin says that if Miss
Anthony had not been promised the floor
thus precluding any discussion - there
would have been some prompt and lively
action. Methodist preachers are not noted
for turning the other cheek when slapped
by vaingIorious and self-important cen.
sor.'
81 would like to have Mr.. Goodwin un.
oerstand that am sorry they did not take
action, as it would have given me chance
to tell DR.. Goodwin and others what
thought of them"

They Were Appointed Last Night to th 9
Bay Conference.
At the meeting of the First Congrega-
tional Church last night the usual order of
procedure was reversed. First came the
business and then the devotional exer-
cises.
Deacon Vasconcellos, on motion of
Deacon Morse, was elected as delegate to
the council which is to meet at the Cooper
Church, on Ninth avenue, this afternoon
at 30 o'clock, to hear the petition of that
church to be received into fellowship.
This council will be composed in part of
the pastor and delegate from each of
the following Congregational churches: {:
First. Plymouth, Bethany, Third, Fourth,
0hyet Bethlehem, Park, Richmond,
Eighth and Swedish 1t will also include
the following: Rev. L. L. Writ. Rev. ]. K.

committee which called the council con-
sisted of Edward Ewald, William Meadow

Der OF the committee on credentials, is also
a: member of the conference, and Pastor
Brown will also 60 as representative of
his church.
DR.. Brown in the course of last nights
meeting informed those in attendance thai
the session of the conference was open to
everybody and urgently requested all who
could manage 1t to be there. He also in :
vited those who wished to make a study
of the Bible to join his newly organized
Bible class, which he stated now mum bered
1O3 members. He was careful to avoid
even the semblance of seeking to induce
secessions from Mrs. Sarah Cooper's Bible
class by saying that his invitation was
meant for those who did not already be-
long to class of this kind.

ACCUSES The RAILROAD.
Mayor Sutro Sees Its Hand in
the Affiliated Colleges
Matter.
He Refuses to Give the University
Regents Clear Deed to
the Site.

Mayor Sutro says that the Southern
Pacific Company is behind the lack of
action on the part of the regents of the
State University in beginning work on the
Affiliated Colleges, and that in his opinion
the institution will never be built on the
land he has donated as a site.
The deed Of gift of the land-which was
made on October last--contained clause
making it void unless work was begun
within six months. This period expired
yesterday, and Regents Reinstein, Foote
Slack and Wallace with their attorney,
Major Mhoon, called on the Mayor to
ascertain whether or not an extension
could be procured. Mr.. Sutro expressed
willingness to grant any reasonable time,
but when it was intimated to him that the
proper thing to do was to deed the land
outright to the regents he demurred, and
the upshot of the matter was that no de-
cision was arrived at, and other meetings
must be held before the question can be
settled.
"Huntington's hand again." said the
Mayor after the regents had left
Though 1t may not be apparent to the
general public l can see the hand of the
octopus back of the peculiar actions of the
regents.
"Six months ago / offered them site for
the Affiliated Colleges and gave deed tor
the land. 1t appears now that clause
was contained in the deed providing that
the gift depended on their beginning work
within six months. l do not rememb Der
just now why that clause was inserted,
but it was certainly done with an object.
Now the octopus has taken advantage of
that provision to harass me in this matter
as it does in everything else. The railroad
company has sent forth the edict that the
Affiliated Colleges must not be located
where it will be of any benefit to me, and
the regents of the university have dilly-
dallied along about accepting plans for the
colleges until the six months is up and
now they will try to make 1t appear that
am standing in the way of the building of
the institution.
81 am willing TO give all the time they
want if they will act squarely about the
matter, but l don't propose to give the
lands into the hands of political manipu-
lators to handle them as they please. On
