stirring Scenes as Opening of Brit
ish parIia meat.

LONDON, Dec. The fifteenth par
lament of the reign of Queen Victoria
opened yesterday. Before the lights
went out in the ancient chambers almost
every leading politician had spoken.
Such fierce personal animosity and such
bitter invcctive had scarcely ever before
marked proceedings at Westminster.
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain. secretary of
state for the colonies. was the center of
the storm. The policy OF the empire re-
garding South Africa and China. the ac-
tion of the government in causing dis
solution when it did. the conduct of the
war against the Beers and. in fact. all
the questions vitally affecting the empire
were gravely discussed and explained.
but dominating all was the opposition
hatred of the colonial secretary.
The queens speech which was read in
parliament was the shortest on record.
1t WAS as follows:
My Lords and Gentlemen-It having
become necessary to make further provi-
sion for the expenses Of the operations
of my armies in South Africa and China.
summoned you to hold Il special session
in order that you may give your sanction
to the enactments required for this pur
pose You will not enter on the dis
cussion OF other public matters requir-
ing your attention until the ordinary

business of importance WAS transacted
in the open session, the senate going into
secret session ON the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty as soon as routine business had
been concluded.
The senate spent almost five hours in
executive session considering the Hay
Pauncefote treaty. There were five or six
speeches made, some of them by senators
who had not spoken hitherto upon the
treaty and others by senators who had
previously expressed themselves. Among
the latter was Senator Morgan, who re-
turned to his former speech. celebrating
somewhat his position as to the effect of
the Clayton Bulwer treaty. He took is-
sue with Senator Teller as to the pur-
port Of the first clause of that treaty,
claiming that it applied only to Great
Britain's right to forrify the Nicaragua
canal itself. Senator Teller replied at
some length. asserting that the provision
was of more general import, as, he said,
