THE ENGLISH CRISIS.
King George Reported to Have Refused
10 Create Liberal Peers.

London, Nov. 16.-The report that
King George has refused to promise
Premier Asquith to create liberal peers
to outuumber the conservatives in the
House OF Lords has startled England
as no political announcement in years.
1t is said the king made this refusal
positive, and declared he would not re-
cede from it even il the country went
overwhelmingly liberal at the forthcom-
ing general elections.
King George is known to have pro-
nounced tory feelings, but the idea that
he would defy popular opinion, as'is
expected to be expressed at the polls in
December, strikes the people as incred-
ible. Even the conservatives are startled
by the possible consequencessof King
Georges act.
The king today summoned the mem
bers of the privy council to meet with
him to talk over the situation. The
privy councillors are selected from
both parties and are men who have
won fame in their respective businesses
and professions. The cabinet also held
a prolonged session teday after which
Prime Minister Asquith was received
by the king.
The following is the English political
situation in a nutshell:
The radical element wishes to remove
all power from the House OF Lords, be-
cause the Lords have checked much
progressive legislation passed by the
Commons, by using the prerogatige OF
veto. The most extreme radicals wish
to abolish the House OF Lords alto
gether and substitute higher electoral
body, having the same relation to the
Commons that the United States Senate
has to the House oil Repre- 'enta1yes-
The House OF Commons could easily
pass a bill taking the veto power away
from the Lords; could even vote to
abolish the House OF Lords But such
bill could not become n las until 1t
had been passed by the Lor'ls, aud the
Lords naturally would neyer agree to
abolish themselves.
The liberals-radicals are at present
in control Of English politics at the
polls. where the people express their
wishes But they are constantly check p
mated by the conservative Lords. who
are not elected, but hold their offices
10y birth.
In their desire to abolish the Lords,
or at least restrict their powers, the
liberals have ask ed King George toallow
them to dissolve Parliament and have
a general election. II at the election
the people show 10y their votes that
they favor the policy of emasculating
the House Of Lords, the liberals de-
mand that King George, acting under
his royal right, create sufficient liberal
peers to outvote the conservative peers
in the House OF Lords. The king alone
can create peer. Those created peers
would have a right to sit in the House
Of Lords and vote to remove its power.
Only in this way, or by revolution,
may the veto power Of the Lords be re-
moved.
King George is understood to have
refused to grant the request OF the
liberals for the creation Of the new
liberal peers.
Premier Asquith is the leader of the
liberals in the House Of Commons,
while Lord Lansdowne is the leader OF
the conservative in the House of Lords

The Savoy presented four vaudeville
acts last night besides some excellent
motion pictures. The Oldfelds and
Frank Foster doubled in a coon act
and created a good deal of amusement
for the audience and won applause
for themselves. The Wilson's did a
good turn at song and dance and the
J Countess de Pomme sung three songs
sweetly.
AS whole the program is about as
good as any ever given in the Savoy
which accounts for the fact that every
seat was taken early in the evening.
The twenty-five cent special reserved
seats last night for the first time

ing a really good place for observation
seemed to meet with the ready APP
proval of the audience. The program

ANTI AMERICAN
DEMONSTRATION
ONLY A BLIND ?

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Nov. TO-
That Mexico is in the hands Of an in
cipient revolution whose aim is the
overthrow of the present government,
is the statement of Mexican revolu-
tionary leaders here today Mexico
City, according to private advices they
have received, is really in a state Of
siege. Americans are in great dan.
ger, the advices say, and many Of
them are barricaded in homes. The
revolutionists claim to have authentic
information that two Americans, a
school child and a young man, were
killed in the outbreaks yesterday.
The burning of Antonio Rodrigues
at Rock Springs was not the real
cause Of the Mexico City outbreak,
they assert, but was merely seized
upon as an opportunity for a demon
stration which would allow the revo-
lutionists to gather their forces with
out too much interference from the
police and federal troops. Attacks on
Americans are likely to continue as a
blind, it is said, until the revolutionists
are in position to declare them.
selves. The situation in the Mexican
capital is critical. The revolutionary
leaders there say that revolutionists
in Mexico have been planning a revolt
and that the plans were already com
pleted and the leaders have been wait
ing for an attack on the government.
"They seized on the present occa
sion for patriotic demonstrations" tc
divert the suspicion of government
leaders and carry out their plans.
The gravity Of the situation is be
ing deprecated by the government, II
is said, and press reports from Mexico
City do not give full details of the out
break
Private dispatches say that a young
American was lynched yesterday by
the mob and that school child was
killed when a street car was stopped
1t is intimated Lere that the mob has
gone to such lengths to convince the
government that the outbreak is ge
nuine and to end any suspicion of re
evolutionary leadership in demonstra
tons.

UNITED STATES LEADS IN
TRYING To ESTABLISH An
INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE

NEW YORK, November At APP
pears probable from information re-
Gently received by the World-Federa-
ton League Headquarters here that
some of the other world powers will
follow the example set by the United
States in appointing a peace commits
sion, and that the combined efforts Of
these powers, the United States taking
the initiative, will result in the estab-
lishment of a supreme court of inter-
national justice.
This tribunal-the powers of which
may be vested in The Hague court, in
stead Of selecting another body-will
be empowered to decide all controver.
sizes between nations, not excepting
questions Of national honor. The work
of the commissioners would supple.
ment and assist the work of The Ha.
que conferences.
1t is believed that the American
peace commission can draft a protocol
or treaty which may be presented to
the powers for their approval and rati
fication and that when six or eight OF
the powers shall have assented, the
court can be constituted. This done
the signatory nations can diminish ap.
preciably their expenditures for mill.
tary and naval purposes.
The World-Federation League was
influential in getting Congress to au.
thorize the President to appoint the
American peace commission, which
consists of five members. AT the in
ternaional peace congress held in
Stockholm in august a resolution was
passed requesting the other nations tc
appoint similar peace commissions

SEATTLE CHIEF OF
POLICE UNDER FIRE


SEATTLE, November 22.-Sensa-
tional charges and countercharges in
volving the integrity of the Seattle
police department were ended yester-
day by the adoption by the city council
of report recommending the dismis-
sal of Chief Wappenstein.
The action is direct slap at the
mayor. Wappenstein was dismissed
by the acting mayor and new police
executive appointed during the ma
yOrs absence from the city several
months ago. This was the result OF
numerous charges accusing the chief
of accepting money from the tender
loin resorts and permitting the town
to run "wideopen"
When the mayor returned, the new
chief was kicked out and Wappensteir
reappointed. Since then the council
has appointed a commission to report
on the truth of the charges which are
said to have been substantiated by the
resultant investigation.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1910-11-22

Similar action was taken by the inter-
parliamentary conference at Brussels
in September.
The World-Federation League seeks
to dignity the American peace COM
mission in the eyes of the American
public and Of the world in general. in
order to win for it proper financial and
other support at home and proper CO.
operation from other governments. If
the body of the people canbeimpressed
with the thought that there is in sight
and measurably near at hand a way
to escape the oppressive burden of
ornaments, the league workers feel
confident that they can more than
counterbalance the interests that
would perpetuate the conditions that
now make ornaments obligatory.
1t is believed that the majority of
governments will deal fairly with the
proposition and appoint commission
ers who are not committed to mill
tarism or who would block progress to-
ward world organization in the ra-
tional manner proposed.
Having succeeded in getting the first
step taken by the United States gov
eminent, the efforts of the World
Federation League are now being bent
to obtain the next one-co-operation
by other powers and to that end a
study of the situation is presented to
all persons interested in the further
ance of such a project for benefiting
civilization and all mankind
The league headquarters are situat.
ed at % Broad street, New York city,
and are the center of distribution from
time to time of publications bearing
upon the progress of the movement.
