JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN SPEAKS
AGAIN
BACK NOTHING SAID
Colonial Secretary Finds One Cause
for CongratuIation in Connec-
ton With Boer War.

London, Jan. 11.-Joseph Chamber
lain, the colonial secretary, in speak
ing at Birmingham tonight, took oc-
casion without entering into a con-
troversial rejoinder, to notice the
criticisms showered upon him in the
reichstag during the past week, es-
pecially Count Won Buelow's castiga-
ton. In referring to the animosity of
foreign nations he said that he was
aware that in some quarters it was
attributed to the "indiscreet oratory
of the colonial secretary"
What l have said" continued the
secretary, 81 have said. I withdraw
nothing; I qualify nothing; I defend
nothing. AS I read history, NJ British
minister has ever served his country
faithfully and at the same time been
popular abroad.
81 therefore make no allowance for
foreign criticism. I will not follow the
example that has been set me. I do
not want to give lessons to a foreign
minister and I will not accept any at
his hands. l am responsible only to
my sovereign and my countrymen..
81 do not ~depreciate the Importance
Of the good will of foreign nations,
but there is something more import
ant. 1t is the affection and confidence
Of our kinsfolk across the sea. Even
our great losses in the war that has
been forced upon us have brought in
their train one blessing of infinite and
lasting Importance. That war has en-
abled the British empire to find itself
and has shown to all whom it may con-
Germ that if ever again we have, as in
the past, to fight for our very exist
ence against the world at arms, we
will be supported by the sons of Bri-
tain in every quarter of the globe"

BRITISH WAR OFFICE IN A d.
LEMMA. .
RESORT TO CONSUMPTION
May Be Necessary to Garry on the
War Against the Beers in
South Africa.

London, Jan. 1.-THE British war
office is confronted with a most seri-
Gus condition of affairs. Its call for
volunteers to relieve the regiments at
the front has, so far, met with abso-
lutely no response and has served to
intensity the widespread indignation
existing among all the volunteer regi-
ments.
ing to the call, would only receive a
shilling per day, while the yeomanry
form which the volunteers already
have enlisted, receive five shillings
per day. .
The only solution for the deadlock
appears to be for the war Office to
resort to CONSUMPTION or withdraw the
new regulations. These have stirred
up strife to an extent which has not
existed for many a year between the
government officials and the volunteer
arm Of the service and, according to
many high officers, will bankrupt a
majority of the regiments.
According to the new rules, every
regiment must go into camp for II
weeks each year and the government
grant will be reduced in proportion to
the number of ~absentees from the
camp. The volunteer commanders say
it is impossible to get more than 40
per cent Of the men together the
same week, SO different are the oc-
equations of the volunteers. In addi-
ton the war office refuses to recog-
nize drills which are not attended by
a percentage of men which it has
hitherto been found impossible to at
tain, and imposes battalion parades
of such strength that there is no drill
hall or drill ground in London large
enough to enable the battalions to
vancouver.
Among those who condemn the new
regulations is Colonel Eustace Bal
four, a brother of the cabinet minis
ter, A. ]. Balfour, who commands the
London Scottish.
The matter will be brought to the
attention of parliament and if the
order of Wa Secretary Brodrick is
not amended the volunteer force, so
the colonel of one of the strongest
London regiments says, will dwindle
to nothing.
In the meanwhile the war office is
still waiting anxiously for an answer
to it's call for additional troops for
service in South Africa.

SAY LITTLE
Think MUCH
HOW BUTTE REPUBLICANS RE-
GARD PARTY ROW.
MANTLE D|SCRETELY QUIET
Credited With Taking Advantage Of
Situation to Strengthen His
Own Position.

Butte, Jan. 11.-[Special to The Ga
zette.I Considerable speculation is
going on in this city as to the prob
able result of the meetings of the Car
terites and anti-Carterites at Helena
during the past week. While Butte
republicans had but little to say pub
licly and did not turn out to the meet,
ings in very large numbers, that fact
does not signify that republicans here,
as a rule, do not take an interest in
the questions at issue. The contrary
is the case, and here and there in
the hotel Hobbies, clubs and private
Offices, one finds small groups of men
discussing the struggle made at Hell
II a few days ago for political SUI
premacy between the two wings of the
republican party in the state. .
Former Senator Mantle who towers
above all other republicans on the
west side as a possible successor to
Senator Gibson at the expiration of
the latters' four-year term, has not
given a public opinion as to what he
thinks of the Kilkenny fight waged
within the party ranks. Senator Man
tie does not dip into party s%luabbles
when waged within the ranks of the
party with which he is identified if
ne can possibly avoid it, and it is be-
lieved here that he has come to the
conclusion that now is the time for
him, to strengthen his own position
and fortify himself solidly behind the
masses of the republican party in op-
position to his former colleague, Mr..
Carter. for Senator Gibson's seat.
Mantle is long headed and is the
opposite to former Senator Carter
when it comes to securing the support
and goodwill of men whom he may
have opposed politically in times past.
The knowing ones are chuckling
over the Butte p%ostofice fight, which
apparently has been easily won by
Colonel George Irwin II. Malcolm Gil.
lis, a member of the state republican
executive committee and a resident
of Butte, evidently thought before ne
went to Helena a few days e that
Irwin was doomed to tn. Roosevelt
official axe and that he would be nam
ed as Butte's new postmaster. ellis
no doubt had something of the kind
handed him by someone outside of
Butte, but with a string attachment

his friend Irwin. ellis ha: been q

coUNTERFElTER ARRESTED.
Had Complete Outfit for Making Sill
yer Dollars.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-THE discovery by
secret service agents today of a COM
plete outfit for the making of counter
felt silver dollars came as a sequel
to the arrest last night of Joseph
strauss and William Scott on the
charge of uttering spurious coins.
Local federal officers regard the ar
rest as one of the most important
captures effected in this district in
several years. It developed that
Strauss has served two terms in New
York prisons under the name of Max
Milan. The plant which he is said
to have used in manufacturing spuri-
GUS coins was found in a trunk at
1906 Auburn avenue, where Strauss
lived with his wife under the name of
Brown.

commanded the battleship Oregon dur

The conference took place in the cab

president denied himself to other call
ers. Subsequently the two naval Of
ficers who, it was subsequently learn
ed, had been sent for by the president,
declined to make public the subject
of consultation which it was believed
had a bearing upon the Schley case.

Judge Harvey today refused to grant
a restraining order asked for by the

judge established a new rule to apply
to the Amalgamated company and

TO RECIPROCITY
OPEN DOOR POLICY IN EAST
MUST INCLUDE PHILIPPINES
United States Cannot Demand {
Other Nations What She Will
Not Grant Herself.

Washington, Jan. 11.-There is au-
tary Root is strongly opposed to COM
mercial reciprocity between the Unit
ed States and the Philippines on the
general ground that any such arrange
ment would be destructive Of the
open door" policy of this govern
ment in the east.
1t is argued that the United States
only secured the "open door, in China
after patient and assiduous diplomatic
negotiations with other foreign gov
ernments concerned and that to now
deny to the other governments the
same trade facilities with the United
States would result in closing the
principal markets in China to the Unit
ed States.
Speaking on this subject today, a
cabinet officer said that the only way
the United tSates could expect to be
treated the same as Russia, Franch,
Germany and Great Britain in the
China provinces now in the virtual
possession of these governments
would be by granting the countries
named equal privileges and facilities
with the United States for trade with
the Philippines.
The above statements represent the
position of Secretary Root on the gep-
eral question of trade relations with
the Philippines and the conclusion is
that President Roosevelt holds similar
views.

SMALLPOX
IN LONDON
EPIDEMIC WILL AFFECT ED
WARDS CORONATION.
VACCINATION is GENERAL
Transatlantic Liners Fear an Embar-
go Will Be Placed on Eng
Iish Shipping.

London, Jan. 1.-THE manager Of
one of the largest transatlantic lines
was asked by a representative of the
Associated Press today, if he expected
an unusual number of Americans to
be present in London at the time of
the coronation of King Edward VII.
He said: mo; by May I fear we
shall have such a smallpox scare and
epidemic that London will be in quar-
antine when King Edward is crown
ed"
That this is by no means a pessis-
mistic forecast is evidenced by the
fact that the line referred to began
this week to have the crews of it's
ships vaccinated prior to leaving Lon
don for New York. Other lines are
following it's example, fearing that
any day the American authorities
may place London shipping under an
embargo on account Of smallpox. The
vaccination of the crews is only a
preliminary to the same operation in
the case Of passengers, the English
shipping firms or agents having III
desire to undergo the financial loss
which would be involved by the de-
tention of vessels having on board I'M
vaccinated passengers or crews. In
this respect the shipping interests are
ahead of the United tSates consulate
which, up to the present, has taken
no steps to protect health at the home
ports. On all sides in the United
Kingdom extensive and alarming pre-
cautions are on foot to deal with the
unprecedented outbreak. The total of
smallpox ase in London now only
amount to about 900 but the cases are
so scattered that they create the
greatest anxiety.
Medical men point out that the
danger lies not SO much in the pro-
portion to the population as in the
proportion to the usual smallpox fig
ures of the metropolis, which general
ly scarcely amounts to a score per
annum.
London laboratories are all phe-
nomanally busy in turning out lymph,
thousands of tips are daily supplied,
but even so the demand cannot be
met. Almost all of the large firms are
ordering their employees to be vacci-
mated. Corporations are applying
sums for the erection of smallpox
additions to the hospitals while sew
eral stores have been purchased in
London for the accommodation of the
present and expected patients.
Expert opinion prophesies that the
epidemic will not reach it's heighth
until May. The effect of such a on
dition of things on TIE coronation,
international business and English
trade is almost incalculable.
