LIBERAL RULE MUST
Be SECURED
INSURANCE AGAINST REPETITION
OF INTERFERENCE BY
LORDS is PLEA.

London. Nov. EFT is my opinion
that it is impossible that any liberal
government can ever again bear the
heavy burden of office unless il is Sc
cured against p repetition of treat
ment such as OTHER measures have had
to undergo for the last four years"
This sensational Celebration by Lord
I-oreburn, 1orG, high chancellor. in the
debate on the budget in the house of
lords today. had an electrical effect
upon liberal m, mbers of the house of
commons who crowded the galleries.
Quitting the galleries they surged into
the lobbies und .r the conviction that
they had heard the governments last
word before the genera! election: that
Premier Asquith will make a similar
declaration in the house of commons
next week and that the long delayed
campaign against the lords has now
begun in earnest.
1t was held that Lord Loreburn's
statement would only mean that no
liberal leader henceforth will accept
office unless he receives a pledge from
the crown that enough peers will be
appointed on the premier's nomination
to secure the house of commons
against interference from the house
of lords in financial matters. After
the Earl of Crewe. lord of privy seal.
had formally moved the second read
ing OF the budget bill. without COM
ment. Lord Lansdowne, leader of the
opposition Immediately moved its re-
lection. He quoted precedents to show
that. although the house of lords could
not amend finance hill il had full
right to discuss it and throw it out
if it so willed. The attempt of the
lords to interfere, declared Lord Lore
burn. was the beginning of a system
that would lead to constitutional revo-
luton. After the lord high chancel-

theory that the men cut off in the

Large bodies of government forces,

rainy season, which is near. Govern
ment forces on the east coast are
merely doing police duty and holding
the reyolutionists in check until the
larger army can arrive. The declar-
ing of provisional government by
the reyolutionists caused an influx of
desperate characters of various ma
tionalities from all Central American
ports. AS nearly all the business of

A. Late Hour.

The above verdict was rendered
about IL o'clock last night by the jury
in the inquest held to determine the
cause of death of Charles Criswell,
the man who died in the Shamrock
saloon on West Front street last FRI
day night, and whose death was at
tributed to the giving to him of NOR
phine in whiskey by Louis Clark. a
companion.
The inquest. which was adjourned
from Saturday afternoon. was con-
vened at 1880 o'clock last evening in
the office Of the coroner. The first
witness to be placed on the stand was
Bert Breeder. a bartender in the Ex-
change saloon on West Front street
from whom nothing of Importance was
ELECTED. He testified that he had seen

The next witness called was DR.
J. G. Randall. who. with Dr. II. F.
Anderson, conducted the post norton
examination. He gave a written re-
port on the condition of the dead man,
which. owing to the use of technical
terms, had to be explained. The re-
port was interesting. showing as ii
did, the condition Of the various or
gans of the sody of Criswell Ac-
cording to the physician. the stomac.
of the dead man was half filled with
food. The lungs had q good color. but
showed adhesions, which indicated the
existence of old pleurisy. The spleen
was enlarged to three or four times
its normal size. Four feet OF the in.
testines were paralyzed: this condition
might have been caused by strong
poison. although a blow or suddeg
shock would have the same effect.
The physician stated that vomiting
usually fellows poisoning. although
vomiting might be caused by heart
disease.
Upon being asked a direct question
the doctor stated that had he not
known of the fact that Criswell had
taken morphine he would give the
cause of death as heart trouble. He
stated that he could not give poison
ing as the cause of the death of Girls
well. as there was no way of telling
of the existence of poisoning excep:
by analysis. He also stated in his re-
port that there was a calcareous de-
post in the aortic valves of the heart
which caused the blood to ooze bacI
into the organ.
The sum total of the testimony of
DIR. Randall was that Criswell. pre-
rious to the time of his death, waa
in very bad physical condition. He
was in such state that death was
to be eXpected at any moment
