GREAT BRITAIN'S POLICY.

Hon. Joseph Cha berlain Discusses the
Political Situation.
LONDON. April 24-Joseph Chamber.
lain made a speech at the Constitu-
tional club last night containing many
interesting references to the political
situation. With reference to the col.
onies, Mr.. Chamberlain declared that
there were two governing factors in
the situation in South Africa The
first was that England must continue
to be the paramount power and would
at all risks and costs resist any foreign
interference. The second was that, as,
owing to the peculiar situation, the
Dutch were likely for many years to be
in the majority, it was the duty Of
statesmen to do their utmost to main.
tain the friendship between the Eng
lish and Dutch
With reference to the anomalous sit
uation Of the Transvaal refusing the
common rights of citizenship to a ma
jority of its population. Mr.. Chamber
lain said he was confident that he
would ere long restore the situation as
it was before the invasion of the Trans.
vaal The Matabele rising, he pointed
out. was quite separate affair. The
government was alive to it's gravity.
be able to suppress it. and they there.
fore did not intend. unless in an unex.
pected emergency. to send a large
detachment of the British army to

suggested that adjournment ought to
be possible by May IS, and was sup.

sible

more adjournments over Saturday are
contemplated. Senator Sherman was
authorized as chairman of the caucus

There 1. n Feasibility Something May
he Done This Season.
WASHINGTON, April 24.-Notwith-
standing the fruitless caucus recently
held on the immigration question by
the house Republicans, members who
are interested in legislation to reduce
the quantity Of immigration are still
making efforts to secure consideration
of one of the two bills reported from
the immigration committee. 1t is pos
sible the immigration committee may
be reached in the call of committees,
within few days. In that event the
chairman, Mr.. Barthold, will call up
the Mccall bill to impose an educa.
Iional test upon all immigration. "A
petition bearing more than 100 names
of Republican members has already
been laid before the rules committee
asking for time for the consideration of
the Stone bill.
