SALISBURY TALKS POLITICS
Makes an Uncomplimentary Reference to
Late Election in New York.
HCLDS RESULT AS A HORRIBLE EXAMPLE
Evil in City Government is Passion
for Bigness, where Desirable
Men Cannot Re Secured for
OhicinI Positions.

LONDON, Nov. 16,--A great mass meeting
was held tonight in the Albert hail. under
tho presidency of Earl Cadogan, lord lieu
tenant of Ireland, at which the principal
speaker was the premier, the marquis of
Salisbury. No fewer than 5000 persons were
present and the entire assembly arose at
the entrance of Lord Salisbury cheered him
to the echo and sang For He's Jolly Good
Fellow"
Lord Salisbury. who seemed in the best
of health and spirit and who spoke with
great animation said the situation was mot
destitute of elements of apprehension either
at home or abroad
Referring to the disturbance on the north
west frontier of India he paid a glowing
tribute to Lord Elgin, the vceroy who he
said has acted so worthily in the great
crisis wherein he has been placed as to be
completely absolved of all charges of bad
faith"
Speaking of foreign affairs Lord Salisbury
denied that the government had yielded to
France in the matter of Siam, Tunis or Mad
agascar. Turning to home affairs he said
the government of London was a question
which must be solved and only be solved by
giving to other and smaller municipal bodies
large part of the duties now performed by
the London county council. He promised
that the government would introduce legisla-
tion on the subject at the next session of
Parliament.
PASSION FOR BIGNESS.
THE present SYSTEM" said his lordship,
"is due to the modern passion for bigness of
things and is too unwieldy." He asked his
hearers to look at what had been done across
the ocean. "Do you want to be governed
like New York? Yet the result there which
was watched with so much interest and which
so many deplore, was adopted after effort
to amend admitted defects in the municipal
ity by enormously increasing its area and
bringing much vaster population under it's
range. The undertaking has failed lament
ably because it could not obtain the assist
ance of the only class of men by whom
municipalities can be satisfactorily and thor
oughly governed
Dealing with the results of the recent par
liamentary bye election Lord Salisbury at
tributed the conservative and liberal union
ist losses to Indifference in their ranks
caused by the disorganization of their adver-
saries, and he urged unionists not to relax
vigilance, "as the opposition has all the ele-
ments of organization and only lacks a gen.
eral."

THINKS rorn's ACTION is WRONG.
Opposition TO school Settlement win
lie Intensified

WINNIPEG, Man, Nov. 16.-Attoreoy
General Cameron OF the Manitoba govern
ment, when asked today tor his opinion on
the reported pronouncemeut by the pope on
the Manitoba school question, Ia which 1t is
decreed that the children of Catholic parents
should attend none but Catholic schools in
Manitoba, said:
"The decision OF Rome, IL correctly re-
ported, is to be regretted. 1t seems remark
able, but the antagonism of the minority to
the public school system has apparently
rather increased than diminished since the
settlement and probably will be still further
increased by this decision. 1t would certainly
seem that this is a most reactionary step
on the part Of the Vatican. Why has not
the same rule been laid down for the prov
nce of Ontario? 1t is only a short time
since that Cardinal satoli made deliver
ance on the subject in the United States,
presumably with the papal sanction, which,
If recollect Alright the minority was au-
thorized to use the public schools in all To-
calities where they had no schools of their
own that were up to the public school
standard. 1t is difficult to understand why
the provitce of Manitoba alone should be
placed under such a stringent mandate"

Military Convention Concluded he
tween Their Governments.
Copyright 1897, by Press Publishing Company
LONDON, Nov. 16-(New York World Ca
blegram-Special Telegram)-The dispatch
stating that military convention had been
concluded between Turkey and Germany has
excited profound interest and speculation in
European capitals / have received the fol-
lowing reply to inquiry addressed on the
subject to highly diplomatic authority in
Berlin:
Germany is unquestioaiply anx Gus 10 Sc
cure herself against her rhrcatening neigh
bors across the Vistula. Her friendly att
tude lately toward Turkey is evidence of this,
quite as much as of her desire to secure fa-
vorable terms for her traders in Levantine
ports. The German foreign Office is striving
at present to persuade The porte to accept an
other batch of German military instructors
and 1t is well known that the Germans at
present in the sultan's service have made a
careful survey, not only of the Graeco-T Turk
ish frontier, but of the Roumanan and Rus
sian frontiers as we'll"
Another point of current German diplomacy
in which the United States is interested is
this: The German foreign Office is watching
keenly the development of affairs in Brazil
and Central America. So is Italy The Bra
zilians have shown themselves somewhat in
censed against the subjects of both powers
and Italy and Germany are bringing pres
sure to bear on the Brazilian government to
redress the grievances OF their respective
subjects Failing this, they know that Italy
is prepared to propose a joint expedition to
Brazilian waters. In the naval port of Kiel
at the present time a cruiser is being fitted
out for South America. and every effort will
be made to strengthen the naval position of
Germany there

PARIS. Nov. ia speca dispatch to the
Journal brings serious news from the Niger
region, west Africa. In order to punish the
inhabitants of the town of Kong capital of
the kingdom of Kong, in the Mandngo region
of Upper Guinea, for their refusal to supply
his troops with provisions, Chief Samory has
raZed the town end masGacred several thou
sand natives.
For several weeks the French newspapers
have been calling upon the government to
send a punitive expedition against Chief
Somory, who, on August 20 last, surprised
and routed a French detachment of native
troops sent to occupy territory which he had
offered to evacuate. Two of the French Of
icers and forty-four men were killed. Kong
is rich and fertile dependency of the
French ivory coast. If the rerort published
by the Paris Journal is confirmed, the
French government will have no alternative
but to send such punitive expedition as the
French press has been urging it to under
take.
Samory, who is otherwise known as Sa-
madu, and who was formerly known as the
West African Madhl," is a Tippoo Tib on
large scale, a wholesale slave hunter. He
first came into contact with the French in
1882. but in the two years war which fol-
lowed he was repeatedly defeated.
In the latter part of 1884 he carried his
slave raids far to the south into Sulimana
capturing and sacking Fatalia, the capital of
Sulimana and the great emporium for the
transnger trade A vast tract of country
was devastated thousands of natives were
slain, thousands more sold into slavery
and the country was so depopulated that
trade came to a stndstill and the colony of
Sierra Leone was reduced to the verge OF
bankruptcy.
These conquests brought Samory fresh
accession of strength and in 1885 he again
commenced operations against the French
provinces on the north. Two severe defeats,
however brought him to terms and in Feb
ruary, 1887, he signed a treaty OF peace with
the French, in which he recognized that the
river Niger was the boundary between his
territory and that of the French.

TINE TO STRIKE BLOW FOR ISLAM
Haddah MuIIah Urging Tribesmen to
n Holy War.

SIMLA, Nov. 16.-Omcial dispatches which
reached here today from the British camp
In the MADAM valley announce that General
Kempsters brigade while coming in yester-
day evening, was attacked by the enemy in
force. The tribesmen were driven off with
the assistance OF star shells, which illumi-
mated the scene of the encounter sufficiently
to enable the trihesmen to be seen.

of the mullah, Said Akbar, letters from the
haddah mullah, saying; THE Turks have
beaten the Greeks and have seized the ap-
proaches to India, and as the British rein
forcements are cut of, now is the time to
strike blow for Islam"
Further advices from the Madam valley
camp say that while foraging in the western
part OF the valley British force had six
casualties and four staff officers had mar
row escape from capture. A body OF the
enemy, concealing their rifles sauntered up
In an apparently friendly manner, but the
officers were suspicious and retreate1 where
upon the tribesmen opened fire upon them
This brought company of Ghurkas to the
rescue and the officers succeeded in getting
away.
