The scene in the parlors as the Judges

URGES REWARD

BaIfOur Defends Acts of
the Sirdar.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

LONDON June 5.-Lord Kitchener OF
Khartoum, Sirdar of the Egyptian forces,
arrived here to-day and called upon A. j.
Balfour. First Lord of the Treasury and
the leader in the House of Commons, with
whom he had long interview.
Mr.. Balfour late in the day in introduce
ing the vote of 10000 $3.50 000) for Lord
Kitchener in the House of Commons, said
that the fact that the power of Mahdism
was crushed was due to the genius of the
man they desired to honor and reward.
He expressed the hope that those who OBJ
jected to the policy of the Soudan ad-
vance would not think that reason for
resisting the vote, as such a course would
be introducing politics into military mat
tiers. He then dwelt with admiration on
the way the Sirdar had surmounted diff
ficulties and organized victories, and by
his answering and almost superhuman
industry" deserved a signal mark or
gratitude and honor, and he. Mr.. Balfour,
believed that in proposing the vote OF
$50 900 he was only carrying out the
wishes of the House and of the country
Sir Henry ampbell-Bannerman, the OPP
position leader, cordially supported the
motion. while expressing regret at the
treatment of the Mahdfs body, which he
regarded as an error of taste and Judg-
ment.
MT. BaIfour did not refer to the incident
Of the Mahdis head excepting indirectly A.,
when he said he conceived that there was
only one question before the House,
namelv-military merit. Mr. Balfour
added that the country whose army con
cerned itself with politics was on the
verge of military despotism.
John Morley former Liberal Chief Sec
rotary for Ireland, opposed the vote on
the ground of the treatment of the
Mahdis head TO which Mr.. Baltour re
piled that he did not believe the element
Of vengeance had Influenced General
Kitchener in the smallest degree pointing
