LONDON, Feb. 4-(New York World Ca
blegram-Special Telegram.)-The British
government has information that President
Mckinley contemplates revision of the
tarin. 1t is learned from a sure source that
while entertaining the members of the
Anglo American commission at the White
House recently the president, speaking to
an influential commissioner, indicated that
his views in regard to high tariffs have
undergone change, that the Dingley law
has served It's purpose and that hs hopes to
make propositions for tariff revision before
quitting the presidency. This notification,
which may have vast results for English
trade, was Immediately communicated to
the British prime minister by the commits
sioner to whom it was given and has excited
much satisfaction among those of Lord Sails
bury's colleagues to whom 1t has been dis
closed. Tariff revision would be accepted by
England as the one indisputable proof of
the friendly sentiments of the United States.

smokes necessarily and otherwise contra
Birmingham now with the gout.
An amusing story is told In official circles
illustrating Mr.. Chamberlain carelessness
regarding his personal comfort when en-
crossed in work. While engaged recently
on some important questions he habitually
stayed frcm eight to ten hours a day at
the colonial Office, taking lunch and after
noon tea there. One day Mrs. Chamberlain
appeared with bitter complaint Of the Of
fetal catering, asserting that the food was
so bad 1t was destroying her husbands
digestion. She insisted on inspecting the
culinary arrangements and inter-
viewed the cook. The result wac
that she issued a ukase that her
husband was to come home to lunch in
the future. He obedienuy has done so. but
the officials are still laughing over the in
cursion of the minister's wife and his docile
obedience to her commands.
The appointment of Lord Tennyson to be

is a blameless, cultured gentleman, who has
never expressed an opinion on any political
question, but is believed to entertain high
