Bobby Leach Lives After Perilous Trip in
 Barrel

Niagara Falls, N. T., July 25.Bobby Leach, 49 years old. of Niagara Falls, Ont, this afternoon went over the Horse shoe Falls in q barrel aud still hves. Though he was severely battered and bruised in the drop of 15S feet over ne brink of the cataract, he sustained only superficial injuries and tonight is able to be about his house. This is the second time in the history of the river that the cataract has been successfully navigated. NJ. Anna Edson Taylor of this city, made the trip in a barrel October 24, 1901 and came out alive
 HaIrassed by the police on both sides Of the river, Leach was forced this after noon to make his start from La Sale, two miles and half above the cataract on the United States side. Two rivermen too'S him in launch to Navy Island where everything was made ship-shap, and Leach was placed in the barrel, a steel affair eleven feet long with ends of wood. Leach was hung in a canvas hammock The barrel with it's passen- ger was cast adrift just off the mouth of Chippewa creek, hardly a mile above the brink of the Horseshoe at 2:52 o'clock and was quickly caught by the rush of the upper rapids. When 800 yards from the brink the barrel was caught in the tremendous current and raced to the chasm.
 Within 200 yards of the brink it struck hard against a rock, and large sec tit of the wooden end was broken off. As the barrel reached the crest at 3:13 o'clock it swung straight and went plung- ing down into the abyss on its long axis
 Hardly 30 seconds elapsed until it was seen red speck. careening in the spuIne below the cataract. With the terrific outrush of the horseshoe caused by high water. tlie barrel went floating down. tossing and tumbing in its passage to- Bender of Chippewa swan out to it with rope and caught the barrel by one of it's handles. From that point the barrel was tcwed ashore.
 Leach was bleeding and appeared in bad way. but once out of the barrel he raised himself and waved to the crowds that lined the bank. He was badly eX- hausted and it was necessary to apply oxygen to revive him. He thought that his leg was broken. but examination showed that it was merely sprained.
 "I minded the tumbing about the falls more than the big drop. said Leach. Tt liked to killed me the way l was tossed about before hit the brink"

PUBLIC AROUSED

Outcome of Mondays Stormy Session Still a
 Mystery

London, July BY Yesterdays scenes in the House of Commons when the oppo- sition denied a hearing to Premier As of the lords amendlnents to the veto bill resulting the arbitrary suspension of the sitting by Speaker Lowther, mas really aroused public interest in the interna- i tional crisis regarding which the people generaly before had refused to take more than passing notice.
 1 The Downing street home of the cabi net and the vicinity of the houses of parliament today attracted many curious ones, who on occasions of special po- litical activity, are anxious to see the participants in the strife. | At the political clubs and elsewhere a variety of opinions as to the outcome was treatment to which Mir Asquith was sub iected will tend to stiffen the backs of the ministers, if that is necessary, and make them insist upon the prompt pas sage of the veto bill following which the required number of peers to secure the
 
 While the unionists generally excuse the conduct of the insurgents on the ground that the situation was one of great gravity, they secretly deplore the incident as likely to hurt them with the country as heretofore they have been held up to public view as the party of order and decency It will probably be some few days before either side takes forward step. The unionists leaders are awaiting the result of Lord Lansdowne's canvass of the peers. to whom he has addressed circular inquiring whether they are prepared to support him in his advocacy of peaceful solution of the difficulty through the acceptance of the govern ment's bill.
 It is thought, however, that the larger number of peers will not pledge them selves either way, but will find 1t con venient to be absent when the bill is presented.
 Che thing is certain. the government will not send the bill back to the house of loros until positive of its passage. either by the present membership or with the help of new peers
 ' There was still evidence of still con- tinued feverishness when the house of commons reassembled this afternoon. Speaker Lowther warned the members that he would suspend the session if dis orders that forced an adjournment yester- day were renewed.
 The entry of Premier Asquith to the chamber was the signal for storm of cheers from the radicals and nationalists.
 Lord Hugh Cecil, one of the leaders in yesterdays demonstration against the premier. pushed himself again into the linelight and forthwith was bombarded with objurations. "Hottentot" was q favorite appelation directed against the young conservative from the Irish benches Cecil demanded of Mir Asquith whether, when he had made up his mind on the subject of home rule for Ireland he would communicate the result to the co.1mons before sending 1t to the press
