"rhe Government has now
avowed," continued Mr.. Morley,
shat the expedition was the FIRST
step in prolonged costly, and
dangerous operation which it is
nothing short of madness for the
Government to gratuitously plunge
into"
Sir VIM. Harcourt, the Liberal
leader, described the references of
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach to
France and Russia, as "miscbiev-
GUS and dangerous" He added
that the questions raised might in
volve not half million, but mil
lions if the Government embarked
in them in the spirit of defiance
and hostility to the great military
powers of Europe.
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach and
Mr.. George n. Curzon, parlia-
mentary secretary for the Foreign
Office, protested against the "un-
warranted Interpretation" which
Sir VIM. Vernon Harcourt had
placed upon the formers language.
After further discussion Mr.. We
sey Knox, member for London

Mr.. John Dillon, M. p, anti.

with French arms"

WILL STAY In EGYPT.
Important speech by Sir Michael
Hicks Beach.

London, Feb. 5.-Some impor-
tant statements were made today
in the House of Commons on the
vote of $3,994,010 for the expen-
ses of the recent Anglo Egyptian
expedition up the Nile to Don
COLA. Sir Michael Hicks-Beach,
Chancellor of the Exchequer, re.
ferred to the decision of the
Egyptian mixed court of appeals
in refusing to allow the funds of
the Caisse of the Egyptian debt
to be used to defray the expenses
referred to, thus compelling
Great Britain to advance the
money required. The Chancellor
of the Exchequer declared that the
court of appeals had thus created
an almost" absurdposition, adding,
"and next year, great question
will arise regarding the courts
powers and authority and whether
it should be allowed to thus in
terfere in affairs. The main cause
of the prolonged British occupa-
ton is that France, especially,
never allowed Great Britain a
free hand in Egypt. In volun-
tarily retiring from that country,
France thereby threw upon Great
Britain the whole responsibility
for the safety of Egypt, and Great
Britain may fairly demand a free
hand in performance of her re-
sponsibilities. The Government
believe that their policy in Egypt
is right and will not be forced out
of it by hindrances and difficulties
such as the refusal of money.
The next advance will be to Abu
Hamed and probably the advance,
later, will go farther, but how far,
it is impolitic to say"
Mr.. John Morley, who was
Chief Secretary for Ireland in
Lord Rosebery's administration,
commented upon the gravity of
the statements made by the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, es-
pecially in regard to the action OF
France and Russia in the matter
of the Caisse, (which" Mr.. Nor
ley declared, sis direct and most

These are days of considerable
anxiety and perplexity to all who
have possessions or other interests
In the Republic of Hawaii, and it
is time that our citizens came to
mutual understanding on several
important issues. The prospects
for Annexation appear at,present
vague and indistinct, and our
destiny cannot be foretold with
certainty. There are those, also,
who still fondly cling to the hope
of a return to the old order of
things, and who cannot be per-
suaded otherwise, yet this out
look appears far more hszy than
that of Annexation even to the
most hopeful disciples of the
Monarchy. But, fortunately, in
the midst of all this uncertainty
there is solace in the fact that
Buffalo Beer has came to stay and
that patrons of all sorts and
opinions may equally share the
benefits of its invigorating and
sustaining properties. We are
moreover assured that this favorite
brew will continue to be dispens-
ed as heretofore at the Royal,
Pacific and Cosmopolitan Sa-
looms.
