A RAP AT LORD ROSEBERY.
LIBERAL UNIONISTS REGULATE HIS
LEADERSHIP

London Feb. 27.-The Liberal Unionists. at
the annual meeting Of the Liberal Unionist
Council to-day, definitely repudiated any de-
sire TO enroll themselves under Lord Rosebery' s
banner. The Duke Of Devonshire Lord Presi-
dent Of the Council, who presided, declared that
Lord Rosebery had done great service in dis
associating himself from the pro-Boer element,
but the speaker failed to see how the Liberal
Inperialist party could offer any inducements
TO the Unionists. Men who refused to play the
game and impartially blamed others, all round,
whether Kipling or Rosebery. would meet with
scant sympathy The country not dis
posed to follow the flag of statesmen who had
quietly looked while the guides OF the
Liberal party had led it deeper and deeper
into the mire.
He synpathized with Lord Rosebery's offer
TO reconstruct the party, but the speaker did
not expect that his lordship's efforts would be
attended with SUCCESS. In the mean while, he
believed that the Unionists would adhere to
their own party.
The resolutions passed by the meeting re-
ferred 10 the openly expressed hopes of the
Roseberyites of getting Unionist recruits, and
declared these hopes were quite groundless.

CORDIAL RESPONSE TO HOSPITALITY

CORDIAL RESPONSE TO HOSPITALITY
SHOWN TO PRINCE HENRY.
Berlin. Feb 27.-"One of the most beautiful
pages in our international relations is the record
of these festivities" says the Cologne Gazette,
referring to Prince Henrys visit to the United
States and adds.
President Roosevelt the members of both
houses of Congress, Mayor Low of New York
and representatives of the government, army
and navy of the United States have shown TO
honors. but have everywhere manifested such
open hearted cordiality that the impression in
Germany is most agreeable ana permanent.
Prince Henry's journey West and South Will
undoubtedly take the same pleasant course
What deserves most to be emphasized, how
ever is the unanimous participation Of the
American people in the festivities which their
highest representatives have given in excellent
taste. The inhabitants of the imperial city of
New-York and of Washington, the capital, have
shown in their demonstrations in honor of the
German Prince and German people that they
feel themselves to be taking part with the
President and his national staff in the hospi-
tality which in every respect is worthy great
people
We hope that the wish of President Roosevelt
to be guest some time on German battle
If this visit could be made in German waters
the German people could take part in honoring
that sympathetic personality representing the
great American people. The Presidents official
duties prevent this, but even though years pass
before President Roosevelt, a private citizen,
can visit country the remembrance of these
February days will continue to live within us
and the German people will prepare hearty
welcome.
May his countrymen. the American citizens
living among us, carry home the impression
that the German people are equally hospitable
and appreciative of international courtesies and
honorS.
