LORD MAYOR'S BANQUET.
Sir WiLIians Treloa7's Term Begun
Prime Minister Unable to attend.

London. Nov. e.-Sir William Treloar,s term of
office as LORD Mayor of London opened to-day
with the time honored pageant. but the usual
gaudy syInbolical cars eliminated from the
procession, which was representative of the
civic history OF London for the last seven cent
uries. each century being represented by a fig
ure depicting the most famous Lord Mayor of
the period surrounded by his retinue, garbed IN
the dress OF the period. The streets. as usual.
were brilliantly decorated.
The banquet tonight in the Guildhall, the first
under Liberal ministry since 1894. when Lord
Rosebery was Premier. was deprived OF its GUS
tomary interest owing to the absence Of Premier
Carnpbell-Bannerman and Foreign Secretary Sir
Edward Grey. Any weighty utterance regard
ing the country-s policy was thus excluded The

celebrities. well as most Of the other mem

Of the evening was the remarkable ovation given
to Baron Komura, the new japanese Anbas-
sador 70 Great Britain
Responding TO the toast, '"The Imperial Ser
vices" the War Secretary, AIr. Haldane, said
that he and the First Lord Of the Admiralty
Lord Tweednouth, realized It was solemn duty
on their part not to diminish the countrys fight
ing force by one whit II was the duty Of
Christian people, the speaker continued, to set
an example by reducing the expenditures for
ornaments but unless they had q response
from other natons, this was impossible The
speaker hoped the time would come when ma
ttons would look back upon these days as O
period OF barbarism and wonder why they had
spent millions in this manner. But until that
time arrived, It was in the interest of peace
itself that no nation let down its strength, and
It was the duty Of Great Britain 20 maintain its
fighting efficiency.
The Marquis Of Ripon replied to the toast,
His A1ajesty's Ministers" He expressed the
governments satisfaction that 1t had been able
TO continue the foreign policy Of Lord Lans-
downe, and said he was glad to be able to de-
clare after consultation with Sir Edward Grey,
that at the present all Indications pointed
toward peace I'VE wish to be. and we believe
we are" said the Marquis Of Ripon. "on friendly
terms with all nations"
The speaker referred with considerable satis-
faction TO the Moroccan conference held at AL
geciras, where the wisdom and mutual forbear-
ance OF the great powers had resulted in greatly
improving and strengthening confidence in the
maintenance Of peace IN Europe. He alluded
also to various other internal and foreign prob

Continuing NJ. BRAND said he was convinced
that the French episcopate was fully inclined to

REPORT ON IlfMIGRATION.
Saus America Has Craze Task, mt
Need Not Fear Failure.

London. Nov. "a Blue Book presented to
Parliament to-day gives exhaustive report on
immigration into the United States, prepared by
Ronald c. Lindsay, second secretary Of the British
Embassy at Washington
Dealing with the question of the exclusion Of un-
desirable immigrants. Mr. Lindsay contends that it
is impossible devise system not liable to mis-
take but that the matter must be regarded from
the point of view of the American who has the right
to prefer that several desirableS should be ex-
cluded rather than pauper admitted. The
author of the report argues that it would be fam
tastic to expect the various European races in
America to fuse physically There Is no such
thing American type. Many generations
must eIapse before the Americans can be physto-
logically differentiated from Europeans to the ex-
tent, for instance that the French are from the
Germans. But assimilation of a simpler or
more superficial nature has been in progress ever
since the colony cOlonized. and IL IS not easy
discern any force sufficiently strong to stop this
movement now. America, however. pays a heavy
price her citizens. inasmuch as, arriving
as adults the task OF their elevation is all the
harder. In conclusion Mr.. Lindsay says:
1t is hoped that this report may have adduced

of the task. America has little reason TO fear fail
