A SINGLE BARONETCY
showerIng Of Titles on Rich Nobodles
Has Anuered Labor
Party.

LONDON, July 2S.-The shower OF
titles conferred by the Liberal gov
eminent on fnanciers and rich no
bodies has greatly angered the Labor
party. Several OF the new peers and
baronets are more than surmised to
have purchased their honors at very
high prices. Under a Unionist gov
eminent II was often said that anyone
who gave 100000 TO the party funds
and who was a member Of the Carl
ton club could become q baronet, but
double that sum was required for a
peerage. The prices have gone up
under the present government.
Carl Meyers baronetcy has cost
him $350,000, that being the sum he
gave to the Shakespeare Memorial
theater. For many years Mr. Meyer
was in the Office OF the Rothschilds.
but he disagreed with that great
house. Then he Joined the board OF a
famous Chinese syndicate from which
he resigned recently.
The most mysterious peerage OF the
lot was that conferred upon Freeman
Thomas. very amiable gentleman
who lives at Eastbourne, but who has
never done anything In his life but
be amiable.
Sir Walter Foster and Sir William
Holland were given peerages simply
because they gave up their seats In
parliament so that more powerful
Liberals would occupy them. They
have probably got of cheaper in the
way OF cash delivery than any of the
other new peers and baronets.
Sir Weetman Pearson has given
very large sums TO the Liberal party
and his Peefasey-whieh was expacted-
will compensate him for some Of the
great losses which he Is said TO have
suffered In the oil war in Mexico.
