A DISTINGUISHED MAN.

One of the most prominent figures in
the British House of Commons is the
recently reelected speaker. Seated in
the chair in official robe and fuli-bot-
toned wig of the William III period,
he can not be overlooked by even cas-
ual visitor when the august assembly
over which he presides is in session. The
English bar is said to be a great lottery,
and is well illustrated in the case of
the Rt Hon. William Count Gully Mr..
Gully was a distinguished graduate OF
Cambridge. He had headed the list in
the mora; science tripos in 1856, and it
seemed though he We're destined from
the outset of his career to be a shining
light in his profession. Yet it is said
that seven years later he and Lord Her
schell, who rose to be lord chancellor,
met with so little encouragement that
each of them applied for some
official position on the West African
coast settlements. Fortunately for
themselves they did not go. Mr. Gulley
made two unsuccessful attempts to en-
ter parliament before he was elected for
Carlisle in 1885, and when his luck turn
| ed he was marked out for high court
| judgeship, but at the time it was vacant
| the liberal ministry could not face a
| contested election in the border town
| with a new candidate, Ten months
| later, however, Mr.. Gully ceased TO APP
pear before judge and jury when he
was appointed to occupy the speakers
chair in the oldest assembly in the
world.

at the edge of the sidewalks so that
the street is not affected. The grating
is widely separated, however, which
may prove a mistake in event of a big
storm. Withal, the sewer itself is an
immense affair and will probably be
able to carry off all the debris that
may reach it,

HOUSE OF PEERS STUBBORN
Refuse to Pass a Taxation Bill
 For Japan.
Emperor Used His Influence and the Peers Backed Down Considerable Tact Is Necessary in Order to Avert a War With Russia.

W aL w llh lNuSSlQs
 Yokohama, March 9, via Victoria, B. O., April 3.-Japan is passing through peculiar political experience. The house of peers stubborn1y refused to pass the taxation bill at time of an acknowledged crisis in internal as well as foreign affairs. The power of the emperor was invoked, with the result that the peers receded from their position and passed the bill by a unanimous vote without amendment or change. Instead of being dstinc- lively q government measure applied for by the cabinet and endorsed by their signatures. it took the form of a private administration by the emperor. who summoned the president of the house of peers and handed to him q document embodying the imperial will as expressed by himself alone.
 The instant obedience of the house Illustrates in striking way the fact that the ancient observance for the throne is by no means impaired
 By the great majority the emperor's action Is taken as >a most healthy sign and there is q feeling Of general be- lief in the consciousness that there ex- ists in the empire power of last re- sort which can be invoked with con- fidence i'll times of great public crisis. 1t may safely be said that the em- peror never stood so high in public as- teem as he does now.
 The submission of the people, how ever. by no means is made without some show of resentment, and it is generally felt that other deadlocks may ensue. especially when the ques- tion of the final passage of tue budget comes up for discussion Party feel ing is also becoming rampant in the lower house. the opposition having proposed the Impeachment of the gov ernment for having invoked the i'm perial power. A scene of the widest confusion occurred d,,"ing the diso-s- sion upon this motion. the premier him self appearing upon the rostrum de- claring that as long as he had the con- fidence of the emperor the diet had no power to remove him. The motion for impeachment was rejected by q majority of 2S.
 The crisis in the foreign affairs of the empire has in the meantime be- come far more acute. the proceedings of Russia in Manchurla and Corea com- bined with the extraordinary inter pretation put by Count Won Buelow upon the Anglo-German compact. arousing the belligerent spirit of the people to the highest pitch. It will require all the tact and management of the government to avoid the precip- itation of war with Russia.

HEALTH DISPUTE IN FLORIDA

Tallahassee, Fla, April 5. = Both houses of the Florida legislature met yesterday and organized and the gov ernor's message was read. The gov ernor charges the marine hospital ser vice with undertaking to usurp the powers of the state board of health. All the important quarantine stations of the state are located on government property and the state board of health has been notified to vacate Mullet Key. Under the circumstances the president of the state board of health recom- mends that the Mullet Key station be sold to the general government. From this the governor dissents, and rec ommends instead the purchase or con struction of suitable barge on which the states plant may be operated.
