LONDON. April 26.--Mr w. p. Stead
in an interview with a representative
of the Daily Mail yesterday said.
.'The Beers are calculating upon
Englands becoming embroiled with
Russia or upon some other internation-

we are on the verge of storm across
the Atlantic that will rudely shatter
our peaceful calculations.
When the United States Congress

be torn into shreds ard flung in our
faces. We shall have to choose between
fighting and eating humble pie
The first serious discussion OF the
possibility of such a war will do more
to keep the Beers in the field than ali
the speeches Of all the pro-Boers in ex-
istence."
