More Rumors Of War.

LONDON, May 1.-The speech de-
livered by Joseph Chamberlain, the
Secretary of State for the colonies, ct
Birmingham yesterday evening, has
caused q great sensation everywhere
and has increased the feeling Of uneasi
meas on the stock exchange. The stock
exchange to-day closed distinctly pes
sinistic. War rumors we're freely cir
culated. q member of the government
is reported to have prophesied that war
between France and Great Britain will
break out within month. Precaulion-
airy insurances are reported to have
been effected at fifteen guineas per cent.
against the risk of war between France
and Great Britain within the next six
months. Mr.. Chamberlain remarks
have been interpreted as prediction
grave international complications
are ahead. His references to the posi-
bility of an Anglo-American alliance
are generally endorsed.
