Change Of View.

There has been no change Of govern
ment In England since these words were
uttered, although thero have been sew
eral changes in the personnel OF the
cabinet. But every observant onlooker
must have perceived that a tremendous
change has come over the spirit of the
British government dfeam-that the
interest of this portion OF the empire
which Mr. Chamberlain evoked was only
"A fash in the pan. so 10 speak-and that
the ruling statesmen of the mother
country have reverted to sheIr old attt-
tude Of indifference to the welfare or
progress OF the West indies.
1.-THE policy Of extravaganza (for the
adoption Of which Mr.. Chamberlain was
mainly responsible has brought trouble
on the head of his maJesty's present
government; and the result is that ef-
forts are now being made by that gov
ernment to cut down expenditure wher-
ever possible.
Hence, the abandonment OF Port
Royal as a naval station. Hence tho
proposal to withdraw all the white
troops from the West Indies. and to dis
band the West Indian Regiment. Hence
the decision Of the secretary OF state
for the colonies to save the West In
dian mail subsidy. And hence the latest
change in policy-the decision to abolish
the West Indian department OF egrieul-
tare. and to throw on the undeyeloped
oping their resources for themselves.
What of the Future.
"Ail this must make disappointment
and disheartening reading 10 intelligent
residents in the West Indies, and it will
naturally suggest the old question: What
is to be the ultimate fate Of the British
possessions in this part of the world?
With the Indifference of the English peo-
pie on the one hand and the increasing
trade OF the United States on the other,
IL 1s not difficult to furnish an answer
TO that question.
Sooner or later-and we cannot help
thinking sooner rather than later-the
West Indian islands are bound 10 become
Incorporated in the great American Re-
public. In fact II the British govern
Iuent continues the policy on which it
has entered for the last eighteen months
or so-that is to say, continues to with
draw its sunnort from the West Indies
the colonists themselves will be forced
to ask the mother country to hand over
the islands to the United States
1t does not require the vision of
prophet TO appreciate the significance OF
the present drift OF things"

| John Conroy, who arrived in Washing

was arrested on a charge of embezzle-
| ment, was committed to Jail today
without bail TO await a trial in Criminal
| Court No. /. Owing 10 the fact that the

Detectives Carter and Trumbo. who
went to London for the prisoner on
March 81, say Conroy was a model pris-
| oner and IS thoroughly penitent fer his
crime. The detectives were present at
the hearing given Conroy in London
about six weeks ago, when he pleaded
guilty and was held for extradition.
Conroy is a soldier. and until last
January was an inmate Of the home
near Brightwood. John Shannon, a
comrade who fought beside Conroy In
the civil war. died IN January and left
81, $50 TO his relatives. In his will he
named Conroy as administrator of the
estate.
An Alleged Absconder.
While acting as executor oenrey is
said TO have collected TWO notes ana
also drawn all Of the cash out OF bank
He then took passage on u steamer and
went to his home In Ireland. Captain
Boardrnan vas requested by the Mary
land Bonding Company. through Tfom-
as J. De Isashmutt, to lock out for the
absconding executor, and cabiegram
was sent to Ballymote, county Sligo,
Ireland Conroy's home. He was ar
rested as he stepped from the train.
The local authorities were apprlsed OF
his arrest, and Major Sylvester decided
TO send the two detectives for the pras-
s.-t-, lllxG2Ef
taken by men from the local detective
ofnce, and covered q period of almost
two months.
Has "Roughed It'' Many Years.
Conroy is about sixty-ave years old.
His face shows that he has ''roughed
It" for many years. He is about six
feet two inches tall and weighs about
10 pounds He seems TO be in good
health and talks freely.
Trlmbo and Carter spoke so highly OF
their prisoner. who Travelled as an or
dinary passenger on the steamer st.
Paul and was not put IN irons, that he
was locked up in WitnesS-rooIn at the
Sixth precinct station and remained
there until this morning.
Both OF the detectives look the picture
Of health and say they were much hene-
flied by the trip. While waiting for the
court TO dispose Of Conroy's case they
visited Dublin and several other places
in ireland and England. Both brought
back a large number of presents and
souvenirs Of the occasion.
Life Of Smoking Room.
All the way across the ocean Conroy
was the life of the smoking room. Was
it a story Of Indian dghting on the
plains that the crowd wanted TO hear?
Well. he could tell many such a story
because they were pare OF his history
Did somebody ask for a yarn of the
Mississippi campaign with hot coffee
spilled b. the boots-and-saddles call and
forgotten ten minutes later in a dash
through a swamp? Conroy could tell IT,
These stories he not only could tell
but did tell. He had as lnuch fun in

that the line is to be built fourteen miles
northwest through Hope township
