ENGLAND MISSED
CABINET CRISIS
OVER NAVAL TAX
Bannernan Threatened
to Resign and Little
EngIanders" Quit.

LONDON, Feb. u.-Eng land has just
missed a cabinet crisis and may stil
shortly see the resignation Of the Camp
bell-Bannerman ministry as result of
the pending parliamentary struggle over
the country's increasing naval eXpendi-
lures.
Though begun by the anti-imperial-
lists, the opposition TO the ministry 8
policy has had the support Of so large
a proportion of the liberal members Of
parliament that the two parties may
fairly be considered allies. SO far as the
question Of naval appropriations is
concerned.
The contest reached its climax with
the introduction by the anti-imperialists
of q resolution in the house OF commons
depioring the governments failure 10
reduce the armament
The government leaders, at first con-
fdent that the move would have small
support, were quickly undeceived by the
declaration of an overwhelming majority
OF the Liberals that they would support
the resolution. Alarmed by the danger
of G. government defeat practically by
its own supporters, Premier Campbell
Rannerman promptly warned the anti
imperialists that the adoption OF the
resolution would Immediately be follow
ed by the cabinets resignation.
The anti-imperialists could not take
this risk. realizing the impOssibility OF
a victory at the polls on a Little Eng
land" platform. and the offensive meas
ure was withdrawn.
The danger, though averted for the
time, is momentarily liable to recur'

Miss Roosevelt,

Miss Ethel Roosevelt is much amused
at the many remarkable stories that
are told of her remarkable" beauty.
Miss Ethel is slightly above the me-
dunn hight, not at all spirituelle in
build, has sort of tawny brown hair,
not very fine, and not at all curly. rath-
er sleepy eyes, that do not open wide,
good teeth, the complexion of a young
girl who does not mind tan or freckles,
with nothing rose-leaf about it, and the
hands and feet of girl who walks.
rides, rows, plays tennis, golf and any
other kind of game that will keep her
out of doors. Hence you can guess that
both feet and hands are lifted out of
the fairy class She has easy. rather
quiet ways, a clear, girlish voice in
speaking, stands rather straight, walks
unaffectedIy and dresses as simply as 1T
is possible for a girl to dress. She
couldn't possibly be styled a beauty.
Her nose is almost a pug. and she is
rather jolly among her personal friends
to correspond with that nose. Miss
Ethel Is not particularly accomplished.
She has a fair musical talent, speaks
French and German, but has no par
ticular fad She is a thousand miles
from being the bowling swell that some
people make her out, but she will not
lack for attention. Naturally the debu-
tante daughter of the President of the
United States would receive a great
deal of attention.
The National tribune., 1908-12-03
Changes In the Army.

1t is currently reported in military
circles that President Roosevelt has de-
cided on general shaking up in the
higher grades OF the Army within the
next fiscal year. The plan. as outlined,
provides for the compulsory Retirement
of a number of general officers and
Colonies who have either reached the
age of 62 years or have served 40 years.
Two Major-Generals, four Brigadier-
Generals and 80 Colonels and Lieuten-
ant-Colonels are eligible for retirement
under that plan.
Secretary Wright is preparing data
on the subject for the President. Among
the officers of brigade rank mentioned
as likely to be retired in the near future
are Gems. w. S. Edgerly, A. L. Myer, r..
d. Thomas. Charles Morton and J. b.
Kerr. 1t is said that the President has
promised several officers to promote
them to brigade rank before the close
of his Administration, and the only way
it can be done is by the retirement, vol
untary or compulsory, of Brigadiers now
on the active list Among those said
to be booked for appointment as Brig
adiers are Col j. d. G. Knight. Corps
of Engineers; Col. Hugh L. Scott, Su-
perintendent Of the Military Academy,
and Col. e. H. Crowder, of the Judge
Department.

Another Public Printer.

Public Printer John S. Leech has re-
signed, and Samuel B. Donnelly, of
New York, succeeds him at the big
Government Print Shop. where there
are more various and varying kinds of
trouble than poor Pandora ever dream
ed Of Mr.. Leech, it is stated at the
White House, leaves with the good will
of the President. While that is true.
the letter written by the President ac-
cepting Mr.. Leech's resignation was
brief, to the point and not burdened
with praise or compliments. In fact,
it would take microscope to find any
kind of complimentary adjective. Just
the same, Mr.. Leech has been doing
some mighty good work in reorganizing
the big Office, and results have followed
his every move. The President will re-
appoint him to the head of the Govern
ment Print Shop in the Philippines,
which position Mr.. Leechi resigned to
come here.
Samuel B. Donnelly, the new Public
Printer, was formerly President of the
International Typographical Union. lie
Is now Secretary of the General Arbi-
tration Board of the New York Building
Trades, with offices at 1923 Broadway.
The President knows him personally,
and believes his selection Will put stop
to much dissatisfaction that has existed
for several years as to the operation OF
affairs in the big printing office.
The new Public Printer has had ex-
perience in important executive work,
and is believed to be qualified in every
way for the work He Is credited with
having done good work for w. H. Taft
in the last campaign.
The National tribune., 1908-12-03
Immigration Deficit.

Congress will face deficit in the
immigration fund by reason of the ex-
traordinary expenditures by the Immi-
grafton Commission, which has been
carrying on its work under an indefi-
mite appropriation. The money to de-
fray the expense of the Commission,
which has been conducting investiga-
tons into all phases of the immigra-
tion question, has been drawn from
the regular immigration fund.
When authority for this procedure
was given by Congress to the Commits
sion it was not expected that the ex-
penses would be heavy enough to en-
barrass the Bureau of Immigration of
the Department of Commerce and La
Dor. Last year the Commission ex-
pended about $4,000, which included
the expenses of the members who tray
eled abroad. The drafts upon the inn
migration fund for this year thus far
have been on the basis Of an annual
expenditure Of about 100000. AS q
result the fund already has been over
drawn, and the shortage at the end oi
the year will amount, 1t is said, to about
100000 IT
The National tribune., 1908-12-03
Appalling Figures.

1t would appear that there are sew
eral things worse than war. One of
them is railway travel and the other is
by way of automobiling. The report
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion concerning railway accidents in
the United States shows that during
the year ending June 80, 1908, there
were 1854 people killed and $3.50
injured.
OF these 400 killed and 12,645 injured
We're passengers; employees, 1858 killed
and 56,344 injured. There was a graft
flying decrease from the previous year,
when CAT passengers and 4,353 en-
ployes were killed, and 1879 passen-
gers and 62,6S9 employees were injured,
making a total of 5000 killed and 76,-
ESQ injured.
These figures are appalling, especial
ly when they are compared with similar
reports from foreign countries. The
total number of passengers killed in
England last year was only 120 and
1855 were injured, while the number
of railway employees killed was asa and
the number injured 5,577. The annual
average for the last 10 years in Eng
land has been 1,160 killed and 1,765
injured. This was an average of one
passenger killed out of seventy millions
travelling, and one for every 100000
was injured.
