Antagonized Everybody.

London, June 1.-English official
dom refuses to comment publicly on
Roosevelt's speech at Guild hall, be-
cause of the semi-official character
of the former presidents visit here.
In spite of this lack of open COM
ment, however, it is plain to see that
many officials fear the speech may re-
suit in an upheaval of the Anglo
Egyptian returns.
Many people today declare that
Roosevelt violated diplomatic pro-
priety, and compare the incidents
surrounding his speech to the Lord
Sackville West incident in 1888, when
President Cleveland dismissed the
British ambassador for advising cit
izens of the United States to vote for
Cleveland The press here is dumb
founded by the colonels utterances.
The Evening Star says Roosevelt is
guilty of a grave offense against the
, laws binding on host and guest"
"The fact that Roosevelt's prede-
cessor was assassinated, the Star
adds, Should make him careful of
his comments regarding the assassin
alton of Boutros Pasha."
The Manchurian Guardian calls the
colonel's views "muddled and boy
ish." The Standard calls his speech
"social crime, little short of sacri-
1ege."
All the newspapers concede that
Roosevelt's arraignment of the Eng
lish people, after receiving the city's
highest honor, violated the proprie-
ties
The London Times warns Roose-
velt that he must not be surprised
Should unpleasant manifestations
occur, due to sensitiveness resulting
from his criticism
The News contemptiously denied
the statements Of the colonel.
The Leader calls him "the greatest
Of modern sentimentalists." Average
citizens are frankly angered over the
Roosevelt speech. The general ex-
preston is heard that Roosevelt dis
cussed subjects which are none Of
his business.
The Standard terms the colonels

After making a vigorous and ad~
mirable intellectual wrestle with the
mammoth question as to whether
Councilman 'Eldridge should be per.
mitted to resign from that learned
body known as the city council, the
members of that august assembly
finally succeeded in making an intel
ligent disposition of the subject 'by
referring it to Mayor Rodgers with
instructions that he exercise upon
him his powerful influence and rea-
son, to prevail upon him to recon
slider his mad and irrational act
The records became burdened with
the subject, and the ears of the spec
tators lacerated with remarks emit

the council meeting last evening, but

London, June Apparently un-
affected by his present unpopularity,
as shown by newspapers and general
comment, Colonel Theodore Roose-
welt was in jovial mood today. He
spent nearly an hour reading the va
rious comments upon his speech rela-

Egyptian affairs, and apparently the
criticism did not strike deep.

disposed of. But later in the sest on
the councilman made another mad
break to sever his connection with
the city's law making department.
and this time 1t looked as though he
would succeed in spite of all his
friends could do for him in depriv-
ing the city of a valuable servant by
plunging his career into political OBJ
livion. His friends, however, again
came to his rescue and it is now be-

The subject bobbed up again later
in the session when Councilman Ell

writing, and motion was made
that it be referred to the ordinance
committee. Again the mayor purred
at him praising remarks, about his
valuable services and passionately
voiced his regrets at his action, af.

who was evidently as anxious to give
him an opportunity to resign as his
friends were opposed to it, moved
that the motion be amended to the

between sailors and a marine on
Wednesday night, when Mr.. and Mrs.

oils side of College creek bridge, and
accounts of it differ 1t is claimed
by the marines that they were attack
ed by a superior number of sailors
and retreated behind Mr.. and Mrs.
Walk for protection, and that the sail
ors handled the latter roughly in en-
deavoring to get at the marines.
On the other hand the sailors claim
that Mr.. and Mrs. Walk were attacked
by the two marines and that the sail

AN EXCITING RUNAWAY
Playwright'S Japanese Steward Thrown
From BuckbOard-A Lady's Narrow
Escape

An exciting runaway occurred shortly
afer 9 O'Clock this morning in the
vicinity of Green. Main and Compro-
mise streets.
The japanese steward in the employ
of Mr.. Paul Armstrong, the playwright
was driving a blackboard down Green
street. The only other occupant of
the carriage was lady. They were
on their way to Market to make some
purchases. When near the foot of
Green street, at the intersection of
Main street, car of the w. "a.
passed, and the horse becoming fright
end took flight, running out Main
street to Compromise street Just
after turning into Main street the dri
yer was thrown out and painfully al
though not seriously injured. He. was
picked up and carried to the fountain
nearby where his face and hands were
bathed and he was revived. The gen.
eral opinion is the steward is pretty
badly shaken up. The other occupant of
the vehicle, a lady, kept her seat and
showed wonderful nerve, the horse
dashng away. like mad. and the reins
dangling at his heels. At Parlett Il
Parlett's STORE facing Main street,
colored man, seeing the runaway, ran
out of the store headed off the animal
at the risk of the mans life and hung
on to the bride until the infuriated
horse came to a stand still. 1t was a
noble thing for the colored man to do,
and he doubtless saved the lady's life
at the risk of his own. The runaway
created great excitement in the neigh
borhood.

Announcement was made today that
the resignation OF Mr.. Lawrence

Annapolis, which was submitted to
the department at Washington some
weeks ago, would become effective
on July 16.

gress in the Fall election, rendered
his resignation to take effect on July
/, but consented to remain in office
longer. According to the present

From the start the interest was
great and the excitement intense.
Each nine was determined to win, and
the friends of the benedicts and the
friends of those who have espoused
single blessedness, looked on with
keen relish of the outcome.
The married men were determined
to show the single men the former

travelling in double harness, while the
single men were equally determined
to show the married men that braun
and efficiency in baseball comes only
to those who travel in single harness
and who are free from cares of do

A well fought game was the result,
but the outcome was a decisive vic
tory for the single men, who won by

The reporter didn't think for mo-

Mr. Courts is one of the leading citi-
zens of Arundel-on-the-B Bay, where he
is president of the board of public
works, secretary of the Annapolis
Arundel Transportation Company, vice
president of the Arundel Incorporated
Cistern Company, chairman of the

"Of course" said Mr.. Courts, re-
suming his explanation of the opera

sponge and temperature reducer,
when this invention is put on the
market, commercially, proper care
will have been taken to protect the in
dicator switch from accidental or care
less handling. A very unfortunate in
cident happened at my home at Arun-

Roger, an Airdale terrier that is a
great favorite in my family, entered
the library after all of US had gone to
bed, and in jumping to his favorite
resting place on top of the book case
accidentally knocked against the con-
troller of the Stratton combined air
sponge and temperature reducer. .
Mr.. Courts paused and took out his
handkerchief.
What-what happened asked
the reporter after suitable interval.
I'm the morning." said Mr.. Courts,
turning away his head, "we found
