Money Spent for Influence in TrpOli-
Italys Dealings with Turkey.

p Rome, Nov. 6.-The Senate sitting a High
Court of Justice. to-day resumed the trial of Nun
zio Nasi former Minister of Public Instruction.
Signor Nasi continuing his defence, said that GER
tain sums of money entered expected for minis
teral travelling in reality used for political
purposes and that these secret expenses had been
entered under travelling expenses for the purpose
of hiding the real object Of the disbursements.
Certain persons had been sent into TripoIi, Sgnor
Nasi continued. for the purpose Of furthering the
governments policy of peaceful penetration; these
individuals had received presents in appreciation of
their work. and the money expended had been
entered under gifts TO unknown persons" To
have made these items public. Signor Nas said
would have worked harm TO Italys policy. He ex-
planned that these revelations particularly
unpleasant to the Italian government to-day, since
the special mission, from the Sultan of Turkey now
in Rome was soon to receive certain gifts from
King Victor Emmanuel.

EMPRESS WILL VISIT ENGLAND.
Yields to Pressing Request of British Sow
ereigns-Kaiser in Good Health.

Berlin Nov. 6-Empress Augusta Victoria, ae-
cording to semi-of1cIal information obtained here,
changed her mind on the pressing request of King
Edward and Queen Alexandra, and decided at a
late hour tonight TO accompany Emperor William
on his approaching visit to England. II was an
nounced yesterday that the Empress not going
10 England with her husband because her daugh-
ter Princess Victoria Louise, is suffering from
chicken pox, and her majesty considered 1t ad-
visable to remain and take care of the child.
Emperor Williams intention to stay a fortnight
on the Isle of Wight after his visit to the British
court the advice of his physicians and in order
to complete his majesty's recovery from attack
of catarrh" as the authorized communication to
the public reads is a mysthcatlon. because the
Emperor appears to be in perfect health
Professor Schmidt, the throat and nose specialist
of Frankfort, who operated the polypus the
EmperOr's throat in 1903. in Berlin last week.
and @aid there not the slightest trace Of re-
currence of the growth and that his majesty s
throat was absolutely normal.
A member of the imperial household, who spent
hour and half with the Emperor to-day. said:
His majesty remarked that the cold which had
made him wretched for a week had left him.
I knew of the Emperor's purpose to rest on the
Isle of Wight and took pains TO notice his voice.
1t was usual clear and rather loud"
The Emperor drove through Inter den Linden
before O'Clock this morning and then went
through the park He appeared TO be in excellent
health and talked in an animated way with his
adjutants
1t appears to be probable that the Emperor, in
deciding stay at the Isle of Wight really wishes
to be away from the cares of state for a cOunle
of weeks and thus relieve himself from engage
ments that now seem burdensome. he has been
working hard recently.

MR.. TAFT ON POLITICS.
HINTS FOR FILIPINOS.
Duty of Majority and Minoity-
May Make Russian Trip.

MANILA 1Sov. 6-Secretary Taft, in an ad-
sress al a dinner given by the Progressive party
last night, spoke OF the history of party divi-
io,s and said that their existence was a neces-
sarv part of the changes in the Philippines
.s-he only method of conducting popular govern
,oeuts" he said is by political parties. The
Fsderal party at the time of it's organization
,rss In no sense political one. When il ex-
,sted il was the only party organized TO in
suee the people TO accept the promises Of the
Americans. 1t worked bravely and faithfully TO
this end, and TO such an extent that much of the
success Of the early government of the islands
MAS in no small measure due to the Federalists
They sought peace and taught the people to seek
peace
After the firm establishment Of the govern
ment had been accomplished change was
natural. In elections for members of the As
sembiy il was natural for the people to divide
Knowing and believing that both the nationalist
and progressive parties have the interests of the
government at heart, the question of which shall
control is settled only by an election. some
times casting party influence one way and some
times another.
The first principle Of party politics necessary
to learn is that defeat must not cause discour-
ageInent. The first lesson in self-government
that voters have to learn is to be good losers
ana WIth lildl is learned, TO be good winners
because self-government imposes restraint on
both sides
The minority must not strive to strike down
the work Of their opponents because they are
not in control, and the majority must so con-
duct affairs as TO show that the people have part
in the government. Nothing has given greater
pleasure or more confidence in the success OF
what We are doing than the action of the As
semby. All matters up to date have been treat
ed In conservative manner by both the minor
fly and the majority All I ask is that the mi
nority. while pointing out the faults of the ma
.ority, may always conduct itself with pride so
as 10 show the Assembly is a success"
The Secretary referred TO mistakes OF the
Cuban government, due to lack Of interest in
public affairs on the part Of the legislators of
that island. and said that the Philippine Assem-
bly, showed a difference in this respect
Secretary Taft said to-day that he expected
20 return home over the Siberian Railway He
thought at first that the troubles at Vladivostok
would keep his party away from there He has
received no replies TO dispatches Of inquiry
which he sent, but he regards it as extremely
probable that he viii stick to his original plans
