ENGLAND THEIR EASY HAVEN
Protests Agains! Great Britain Civ
Ing Asylum to Anarchists.
The British Press Waking Up to
Trafalgar Meeting.

London, Aug. 1.-THE English news
papers are beginning to heed the protests
OF the continental governments against
Engl=nd affording asylum to anarchists,
ana some of them advocate the adoption
of strict regulations to prevent the mi
grafton of these gentry into Great Britain
The scare eccasioned in the continental
'ities by the assa ssination OF Prime Min
. lister CanOyas has led the European gov
ernmsnis 10 revive all their precautions
against anarchists, but they have little
hope that England viii join them in their
efforts
The English government has strong
scrupleS against interfering with liberty
OF speech, unless an anarchist crime should
De committed in this country. The be-
lief In England is that the country owes
its iHI,aunity TO the fact that it is u
place th&t offers asylum to the brother
hood OF rascals. ard il is not at all likely
taat anything VIII be done at present, at
least, to Hurt the feelings of these enc
mics Of civilization. Great Hritain's atti-
tude is, or course, selfish one, but SO
long as She is safe from Vaccinations
Of these people, she will have no more
than a sentimental Concern in the fate
that they may nete out TO continental
rulers and statesmen.
The aaiEonues have given permission
for the tsOldngof a public meett in Trafal-
gar Square for the oStensibie purpose OF
protesting against the crueities perpetrated
upon prisoners in the Spanish iails. It is
pretty well known that the meeting viii
be an anarchist assenblage, and there
have been numerous protests against its
being held. The commissioner of police
says, however. that he has no official
kno ledge that the applicants for the pei
nit are anarchists, and he therefore could
not refuse to issue it.
The Duke ie Casa Valencia. the Span
ish Ambassador, has protested against the
meeting, believing that il VII te made

sasSinatioH Of Prime Minister Cano"as. but
