Biner Fight In
 British Cabinet
 Over Germany Premier and Chancellor Take Opposite Stands on MOrOc-
 can Situation

London, July GA bitter fight has broken out in the British cabinet over the policy to be pursued by the gov ernment in the Moroccan situation. Premier Asquith and his followers are z said to favor q strong aggressive stand ch the part of England. against the Intervention of Germany while the group headed by Chancellor Lloyd George Is urging caution and modera- tion and not to further complicate a situation already grave. So strong has become this feeling that there is Q strong probability that the cabinet may resign.
 That the outlook is causing much uneasiness is plainly indicated by the depression of prices on the BourseS.
 The Evening Star says. today:
 ''The shadow of Agadir is hanging heavily over European Bourses and the collapse of values is taken as in- dicating a pessimistic view on the part of the great financial parties" Another cause for the disagreement in the cabinet is the dissatisfaction of the Chancellor's followers with Prem Ter Asquith for permitting the use of troops in quelling the Manchester btrfke riots.

BurliSon's
 Resignation
 Is Held Up Charities Commission Loath to Lose Services of so Valuable
 a Man

At the suggestion of the Charities Commissioners, Supt. Brennan of the Charities department withheld the resignation of Ambulance Driver Bur lison from the regular meeting of the board last evening. It is the wish of the commissioners to retain Bur lfson, whose efficient work has met with their approval An effort is to be made to have Burlison reconsider his action, which the commissioners are inclined to believe was nasty
 The board granted an increase from $50 to s150 in the annual payment to Dr. DeWolfe for his services as an eye expert in connection with the Emergency hospital staff. Dr. De- Wolfe intimated that $500 would be a fair recompense, but the commits sioners who had made no requisition beyond the usual $50, couldn't see their way to getting more than $150.
 Driver BurliSon was asked to ex- plain to the commissioners the cir cumstances of his forcing c. Barnum Seeley's automobile into a ditch in Harrison street when answering an ambulance call. Burlison told the commissioners he had his Car under complete control, and that the fault was with the driver of Seeleysl car. Seeley's mudguard was bent in collis- ion with tree.

BE KIND TO HORSES.

Veterinary Surgeon W. J. Southey suggests to horse owners that during such spells of hot weather as the present particular attention be paid to the condition of the horses. When they are sweating heavily, breathing fast and showing signs of distress, they should be rested in shady spot and their heads should be bathed with cool water if possible. The horses will be very grateful for this treatment and it may prevent heat prostration, from which a number of them have been suffering.

 May remonstrated because Tony helped himself to crackers in the store, and when May came out last evening, Tony stopped him to com plain because he believed May had told the manager of the store about their trouble.

selves, if they please, and then to sit upon their own blisters.
 We are going to hold to that for ever. We are going to hold to the principle of this country that there should be three coordinate branches in this government, the executive, the legislative and judicial, and that they shall remain forever, separate ana apart And we are going to hold the executive responsible for his acts; the Iegislatiye for it's and the judicial for it's.
 We are going to hold that each State in this country is a sovereign State, not an appendage to the Gov ernment at Washington.
 We are going to insist upon those principles; and if that means that the Democratic party has nothing new to offer to the people of this country, then give me the old things. The old things are the things we love the most Thank God for our old wives. Thank God for the old homes. Thank God for the old churches, and the old religion, and the old faith. Thank God for the old Democratic doctrines that have subsisted for more than hun dred years!
 Those things are old, you say. Aye, so they are The air is as old as the creation of the world. Human am- bitions are as old as the creation of the world. But they are perennial, eternal everlasting.
 Now these principles which the gentlemen proclaim as being old and to be cast aside as a wornout yesture. are the eternal principles upon which this Government of ours rests; and it is to you. and men like you, who be- lieve that God made us all alike, with equal rights before the law, it is to you I appeal to put these principles into execution.
 I do not cavil and quarrel and find fault with the man who does not a gree with me Let him see through his own spectacles. I do not blame him. I do not judge him. What l do judge is the eighty per cent. or ninety per cent. of the people of Am erica who are Democrats at heart and who vet will not vote the Democratic ticket
