But" he added, II don't believe We will
lose New York"

BRITAIN TRIED TO BLUFF
THE TRANSVAAL Beers
Statement Attributed to Chamber
lain That Caused Laughter
in the Commons.
GOVERNMENT VICTORY

LONDON, Feb. 5.-An interesting little bit
of ante-war history was revealed by the
Liberal leader, Sir Henry Campbell Ban
herman, in the House of Commons to-day,
in the course of the debate on the amend
ment to the address in reply TO the speech
from the throne moved yesterday by Mr..
Robson (LiberaL) Referring to Joseph
Chamberlain's gibes at the attitude Of OPP
position when Mr.. Chamberlain yesterday
defended the course of the government
towards the Transvaal, Sir Henry said that
when Mr.. Chamberlain interviewed him
June 20, 1899, prior to the war, and asked
him If the opposition would support the
government in sending out 10000 troops to
Cape Colony, he, Sir Henry, expressed sur
prise, whereupon Mr.. Chamberlain said:
You need not be alarmed. There will be
no fighting. We know those fellows won't
fight. We are playing a game of bluff >"
AS a result, Sir Henry added, the oppo-
sition refused TO relieve the government of
any responsibility regarding the course il
chose to pursue. The statement of Sir
Henry was greeted with roars of laughter
from the benches.
Mr.. Chamberlain, in reply, said he did not
remember using the word bluff" His only
object in approaching Sir Henry was TO
make sure that the South African question
should not be treated in party spirit so
that the Beers might be convinced of the
earnestness of Great Britain.
In the ultimate division in the House of
Commons to-day on Mr.. Robsons amend
ment to the address. the government had
a majority of eighty-six, the vote being
1872 for and 27S against the amendment

NEW TARIFF OF ,SCANT
BENEFIT TO AMERICANS
Rates Which Take Effect TO-DAY
Will Operate to the Advantage
of Europeans.

HAVANA, Feb. 5.-The new tariff which
promulgated to-day will take effect
tomorrow. The rates are considered
than to American. The latter hoped
that a 80 per cent. increase, which is the
maximum rate allowed by Congress, would
have been placed on goods like linens, which
the United States cannot manufacture in
competition with Europe, but which they
could hope to substitute to some extent
with cotton. The Americans also hope for
a more radical increase in the duties on cot
tons. which would have enabled goods from
the United States to compete, with the adj
vantage of reciprocity, against British and
European cottOns.
The Presidents decree fixes the increase
on linens, silks and woolens at Is per cent,
and that on cottons at 20 per cent. The
Senate's tariff bill, which failed to pass,
granted so to 100 per cent Increase on
linens. Under President Palma's decree the
maximum increases of 80 per cent. are
placed on all the main food imports from
the United States.
From an official standpoint it is said that
the decree treats the interests of the
United States with great fairness and that,
in any event, none of its provisions is die
tated in the remotest degree by any feel
ing of unfriendliness towards the United
States. The statement is made here that
the increased duties on foodstuffs will not
injure American food exports, and that the
cotton manufacturers of the United States
in a reciprocity treaty and that 40 was
granted to which the decree of to-day adds
per cent. On the other hand. it is pointed
out that the bulk of American cottons
have only 80 per cent. reduction in the
treaty, the 40 per cent. reduction being con-
fined to knitted goods.

MULES BLOWN OFF
TWO OF IOWA'S GUNS
Second Accident to the Battleship
Within a Year Causes Gloom in
the Navy Department.

WASHINGTON, Feb 5.-The following
telegram has been received at the Navy
Department from Captain Train, president
of the board of inspection and survey,
dated Fort Monroe. yesterday: while the
board of inspection was testing the battery
this morning on the battleship Iowa, both
guns in the starboard forward eight-inch
turret blew off their muzzles. Small dam
age to guns and one whaleboat. No
casualties"
Immediately on receipt of the telegram
announcing the accident to the Iowa, Secre-
tary Moody sent a dispatch calling for full
details. and ordering the Iowa to proceed
at once to New York for examination and
repairs.
This second explosion on the Iowa within
less than a year has cast a gloom over the
officials of the Navy Department. The
cause of the explosion off Panama, last
year, in which there was a loss of life and
considerable damage to the ship, remains
a mystery. Several boards attempted to
clear it up, but without definite result.
Until the details of the accident are OBJ
tanned Rear Admiral ONeil, chief of ord
nance is unwilling to speculate as to the
cause.
The alarming feature of these two acct
dents is the apprehension growing in naval
circles that the older guns of the navy are
not strong enough to permit the use of
smokeless powder in them. 1t is declared
that none of the guns on the Iowa had been
fired much over one hundred times, and
the officials discredit the theory that the
life of any of that vessels guns has been
exhausted.
1t was said to-day that the Iowa had re-
Gently been supplied with new allotment
of powder, which had been thoroughly
tested.
