HOUSE OF LORDS ON
SHAKY FOUNDATION

London, March 90.-Interest greatly
tagged in the debate on the veto resolu-
tons in the house OF commons tonight
and the attendance was small. Lord
Hugh Cecil. for the unionists, made the
important admission that there ought to
be a stronger check from the house of
lords on conservative governments. and
added that a proposal in this direction
would demand careful investigation. He
favored a house of lords composed of 400
members, $50 chosen from the hereditary
peerage and the others nominated by the
King on the advice of his ministers.
Augustine Birrell, chief secretary for
Ireland, speaking for the government,
said 1t was not proposed a: this stage to
submit any scheme for the reform of the
house OF lords. The unpopularity of the
house OF lords. he added, was not the
outcome of the hereditary principle, but
the consequence of the cuunIrys convic-
ton that the lords had failed TO ex-
ercise their functions impartially.
He declared there could be no compro-
mise on the financial resolution.
There was an interesting incident in
parliament tonight Mr. Balfour. the
leader of the opposition. gave notice OF
a motion in favor of raising the salary
Of John Burns, president of the local
government board, to $4,000.

NEGRO EXPOSITION
TO BE HELD IN 1914

Washington, March 30.-(Speeial.)-
The Joint resolution to create a COM
mission to investigate and report on
the advisability of holding an exposi-
ton commemorative of the semi-cen-
tennial Of the issuance OF the emancipa-
ton proclamation has been favorably
reported to the House from the com
mittee on industrial arts and eNposi-
tons Representative Rodenburg of
Illinois, in making the report, quotes
President Taft as follows:
The year 1914 will mark the fftieth
anniversary of the issuance OF the
emancipation proclamation granting
freedom to the negroes 1t seems fit
ting that this event should be prop
erly celebra ted. Already a movement
has been started by prominent negroes,
encouraged by prominent white people
and the press The south especially
is manifesting its interest in this
movement.
1T is suggested that proper form
of celebration would be an exposition
to show the progress the negroes have
made, not only during their period of
freedom, but also from the time OF
their coming to this country.
81 heartily indorse this proposal and
request that the executive be author
lied to appoint a preliminary commits
sion of not more than seven persons
TO consider carefully whether or not
1t is wise to hold such an exposition,
and If SO to outline a plan for the
enterprise. l further recommend that
such preliminary commission serve
without salary, except as to their &C
tual expenses and that an appropria-
ton be made TO meet such expenses.

FRENCH ADMIRAL
PREDICTS BIG WAR
Japan and America Are Ready
To Fight He Says
WORLD WAR MAY ENSUE
The Admiral Declares That Friendship
Between United States and France
Should Not BE Broken
BY War

Paris, March 30.-The Matin prints
a chapter of the memoirs of Admiral
Fournier, commander of the Mediter-
ranean squadron of the French navy,
which examines into the possibility of
war between the United States and
Japan. The admiral declares the naval
activity of the United States; its hurry
TO finish the Panama canal; its haste
to equip a Pacific naval base on the
Pacific, which has been redoubled since
the questions of Japanese immigration
has come up and similar incidents cal
culated to arouse the animosities of
people possessing all the gloomy and
indicative characteristics of the in
sular races of the far east and who
are justly proud of their proud mill
tary qualities.
Whether the conflicting interests of
the two nations can be reeonciled or
must end in war is. the admiral thinks,
riddle for the future Such war
might involve the whole world, in
GLIDING Great Britain and France.
The hypothesis of a war between
France and the American republic, our
sister. born under our protection in
glorious struggles in which two allies
mingled their blood" says the adj
miral, would be in our eyes sac
rilege. We hope never to. be forced
to sacrifice our traditional friendship
with the United States to fidelity to
our engagements with England
Admiral Fourier believes that while
A..
the rival nations in the Pacific should
dominate British and French diplomacy,
strong fleets would be the greatest pre-
ventive of trouble between Japan and
the United States involving a rupture
between the United States and Great
Britain.
In the course of his "reminiscences
Admiral Fourier declares that the
time has arrived for France and Great
Britain as allies to strengthen their
forces of defense and offense. France
by adding a powerful fleet of battle
ships and torpedo boats and England
by supplementing her fleet with a great
army. This course, the admiral adds,
is essential 10 safeguard the future
and 10 enable France and Great Britain
and Russia to combat the forces of
inc dllialCt SUoulu HoSllllltS De-
tween the United States and Japan
occur or in the event that the provoca-
tive tactics of Germany unchain a world
war.
Among the interesting statements
and comments of Admiral Fourier is
the claim which he sets up that the
real cause for Germanys nagging of
France over Morocco was Emperor
Williams resentment at the failure of
Germany TO secure a place on the in
ternational commission of inquiry
which decided the dispute between
Great Britain and Russia, growing out
of the action of the Russian Baltic
squadron in firing on the Gamecock
travelling fleet of Hull under the de-
fusion, as alleged. that they were Jap
anese torpedo boats. Admiral Fourier,
who was president of the commission,
says that the Emperor felt, though
without justification, that M. Delcasse,
then Frances foreign minister, blocked
his majesty's pet plan.
