Chamberlain Says New Territory
 Will Make Empire Mighty
EACH PART ID HELP WHOLE
Diamond Country Is Considered as a Future Amerlca-Speaker Pays
 Tribute to colonies-subjects
 Broader at Home Than Latter.

London. August 1.-colonsai Secretary night when he and Lord Kitchener were guests at a banquet given by the Grocer's company. After paying tribute to Lord Milner. British high commission CT in South Africa and to Lord Kitchener, Secretary Chamberlain dilated upon the new conception of imperial destiny in which. thanks to the South African war, he said. ideas of lkinship and mutual obli- gation had been substituted for mere pride of possession of huckstering calcu- lation about loss and profit.
 The speaker said he foresaw in the re- organization of the newly acquired South African territory something that would make the mighty empire more than mere geographical expression.
 We hope" said he, Ito make it a liy- ing entity to which each party shall con tribute to the success and security of the whole.
 Referring to the conference of colonial premiers the colonial secretary said the end actuating all parties to this confer ence could only be reached through im- perial defense or imperial trade. He did not suppose this ideal would be attained all at once, but he said he believed the conference would lead to considerable advance, if this were so, he would be content for the present.
 MT Chamberlain then paid a glowing tribute to the colonies, although he said he thought that opinion on imperial sub jects was now broader at home than in the colonies themselves.

"BRADLEE WON'TYOU
 PLEASE COME HOME"
MAY YOHE HYSTERIcALLY SINGS OUT TO HER DIAMOND-PAWN ING, RUNAWAY MAN-cAREs ONLY FOR HIM.

London, August May Yohe, who arrived here this morning. drove at once to the Savoy hotel and registered as Lady Francis Hope. She spent the day at the hotel, dejectedly reading and re- reading batch of letters which she had just received from Putnam Bradlee Strong and in which, while urging for giveness and beseeching news of Miss Yohes future movements, carefully dis guised his own whereabouts. On the inside of one envelope wrote: Send word by him (bearer) if you forgive me"
 Reading, Miss Yohe exclaimed: There have been all sorts of friends here today offering me all sorts of inducements to leave here, but I care only for Bradlee. Where is he? Why don't they bring him to me? Why does he write me if he does not love me? I would forgive him in a minute if he would only say that he is sorry"
 Miss Yohe grew quite hysterical. Strongs letters declared that he was within a days ride of Paris, which was obscure enough to leave Miss Yohe in doubt as to whether he was in England or at Genoa. Miss Yohe had all her trunks packed in readiness to go to Paris, but an intimation she received that Strong was not there finally decided her to remain in London. Referring to this decision she said:
 q don't see how can spend another night in this miserable place but I sup pose I must.'
 Prior to leaving London, Strong told his friends he inteded to go to the Uni ted States and never to see Miss Yohe again. It is now evident that he has changed his plans and that reconciIia- tory meeting between him and Miss Yohe Is only a matter of a few days. doubtful as to Miss Yohes attitude in the matter of criminal proceedings against him.
