" AIMING I'U FRANCE.
Hicks-Beath's Speech Excites
England.
FRENCH PREPARING FOR WAR.
The English Chancellor of the Exche-
quer Made the Declaration That the
French Must Evacuate Fashoda or War
wonld Follow warIiISe Activity.

LONDON, Oct. 20.-The speech of Sir
Michael Hicks Beech at North Shields
has deeply impressed England, and the
utmost concern is felt as to how France
will receive it.
Most of the morning papers elaborate
some of the excited descriptions of the
belligerent precautions of France.
The Paris correspondent of The
Daily Mail says: lin Toulon and Brest
every nerve IS strained to get ready for
war, which may break out on short
notice, The Paris press is growing
more and more determined to back up
extreme measures, even a resort to
arms. The French have been excess
sively piqued by the threatening tone
OF the English papers, which is more
likely casus belli than the mere question
of Fashoda.
consequently, the outlook here is
grave. There are reports of troops
hurrying from Paris to Brest and
Toulon. The artillery in the batteries
and at the various ports have been con-
fidentially instructed for any emergency,
and the cannon at all the forts and bat
teries are kept ready for action at any
moment. Today Wednesday, there
was prolonged war council at Brest
of the chiefs of the various services,
and M. Lockroy is hastily returning to
Toulon ON account of the gravity OF the
situation
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach said in
part:
cit is impossible for France to main
tain that she had political rights at
Fashoda. She has naturally and prop
erly asked for time to receive Major
Marchand's report, but until the con-
trary is proved, | decline to believe that
France will refuse to withdraw. IF she
refuses the matter would assume an
aspect as grave as is possible between
two great nations.
81 hope, trust and believe the ques-
ton is capable of friendly solution,
but this country has put her foot down.
If, unhapplly, another view should be
taken by France, the queens ministers
know wnat their duty demands
at would be Il great calamity if,
after peace for upward of so years, our
friendly relations should be disturbed
and we should be launched into great
war, but there are greater evils than
war, and we shall not shirk from any
thing that is coming, knowing that VIC
are supported by united people"
