BALFOUR's SPEECH.
English Premier Defends Acts of
 IrnIOnfSt Party,


 London, May 5.-Premier Balfour, speaking before 10000 people at All bert Hall this afternoon. the occasion being the annual meeting of the Prim- rose League, did not make the slight est reference to the compromise ar rived at on the fiscal question. He de- tended all the acts of the Uniontst Party and said that the sole weapon of the opposition consisted in motions for censure of the Government on ques- tions which would come before anOth- CT Parliament. He predicted that the country would never return the Lib- erals in power while the latter upheld the disestablishment of the church and home rule or made any attack on the union of England and Ireland in the the name of revolution, which was dangerous step in the direction of breaking up the United Kingdom.
 Briefly. the Dunraven devolutiop scheme proposed to remove from the immediate control of Parliament cer- tain functions connected with purely Irish business and for administrative control of purely Irish finances, thu House of Commons having the right to veto. For this purpose 1t was pro- posed to create a financial council of twenty -four members, twelve to be elected by groups of existing parlia- mentary constituencies. and twelve to be nominated by council to be under the presidency of the Lord Lieutenant and the viee-Dresidency Of the Chief

 Washington, May 4.-The office of administration of Isthmian Canal Af- fairs has received a cablegram from Governor Davis reporting that R. R. West, of this city. deputy auditor of the Canal Zone, is i'll there of yellow fever but that his condition is now comfortable Governor Davis says that MT. West cannot sail home before two weeks. The cablegram reports two other cases. Charles Leech and NJ. Bar rett
 The news of these new fever cases, coming so soon after the recent favor able report of Governor Davis, has made a disagreeable impression for the reason that the new patients are of class of employees regarded as intelli gent and competent to observe all the rules of hygiene and follow closely the well established method of protection against the fever. Recent reports from the isthmus. however, show that condi tions are abnormally bad owing to al most water famine and to bad wealth CT. It is believed by the officials here that the conditions will improve stead fly and that the American colony Is now going through its worst experience. Within q few weeks the new water supply system, bringing in pure noun tain water into Panama will be in op- eration and when the city is paved with vitriied brick and severed it will be the cleanest city in the tropics. with little danger of contagiOn.
