HIS SPEECH MAY RE-
SUIT IN REMOVAL
OF EGYPTIAN CON-
SUI GENERAL.
(6y Staff Correspondent Of The
United Press.)

LONDON, June cit is reported
that Sir Eldon Gorst, British agent
and consul general of Egypt, will
be recalled, following Colonel
Roosevelt's speech at Guild Hall, in
which he criticised the British ad-
ministration in Egypt.
1t is intimated that Sir Francis
Wingate. sirdar of the Egyptian
army and governor of Egypt, will
succeed Gorst.
Wingate and Roosevelt are on in.
innate terms, and the colonel while
in Egypt was guest at the sirdar' S
palace at Khartoum. Since coming
to England, the colonel has lost
no opportunities to boost" Sir
Francis. This strengthens the be-
lief that the colonel is planning to
achieve a part in the contemplated
changes in Egypt,
If Gorst be fired" Roosevelt
probably will be charged with in
terfering in Englands private af.
fairs.
Colonel Roosevelt and Mrs
Roosevelt were guests of King
George and Queen Mary at lunch
con at Marlborough house today.

"EXTR WAS FIRST
RIDE AT COUNTY EXPENSE
DUE TO ACCIDENT.

Today County Commissioners
Phillips and Rohwer and Engineer
Allan Scott went to the new Trent
bridge to sell some old bridge ma
terial. They expected to ride in
the automobile of Fred McBroom,
president of the board. but the ma
chine was wrecked last night and
McBroom so badly shaken up that
he was not able to be on hand to
go with his colleagues.
So the other commissioners hired
an autOmobile-the first expense
account of the kind incurred by the
county since the lamented George
II. Collin retired from the board
Mr.. Collins automobile bills in one
month ran to $50, for the use OF
his own machine.
Commissioner wore peculiar
smile on his return. when he found
a reported for The Press looking
over the motive power.
How about Ills, joe asked the
reporter. isn't this something
new"
Yes. you'll have to forgive us
this time Fred McBroom expected
to use his own machine for the
trip, but ii was wrecked and we had
to hire one. Had | known that he
could not have been here | would
have brought down my own ma
chine AS it is, it was just as
cheap to make the trip in a ma
chine as TO hire a horse, and it
saved a whole lot of time"
The reporter told Commissioner
Phillips that he was only joshing,
but Joe took the employment of an
automobile seriously, as it was the
first extravaganza" of the kind
that he had been a party to since
going into office.
