NEW TORY LEADER
Bonar Law Proves His Riqht

GETS OVATION AT LEEDS
Creates Wild Enthusiasm by His
Speech to a Throng Of
5000 Persons.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
LONDON, November 1s 1911.
A slender. almost fragile figure walked
on the stage Of the Coliseum at Leeds
Thursday night. It was Bonar Law, the
new tory leader. and 5000 persons, eager
to see what manner Of man is Mr.. Bal
four's successor. rose cheering, clapping,
stamping. The slight man was smiling
and bowling, with little. nervous move
ments.
Bonar Law is, of course, a great bust
ness man and a great politician, but on
this occasion he looked more like an ex-
tremely timid poet until hes got on his
feet to make his great speech. The audi
ence cheered till it was weary, then it
sang. and then it cheered again. The new
leader had come and ne was to have his
welcome.
Through it all he sat with the charming,
nervous smile on his face. 1t was a great
moment for him. There was the building
crowded in every corner. On the platform
sat nearly all the leading members OF the
party: most significant Of all, below him
were two long, packed tables, at which
sat the biggest army Of newspaper men
that Leeds has ever seen.
He sat there while Lord Faber and Lord
| Kenyon proposed and seconded the reso-
| luton OF farewell to Mr.. Balfour. They
| made excellent speeches, but few people
| listened They were watching the new
man. watching and wondering. and then
| when he rose the meeting rose with him.
| There was the glare of a hashlight, the
| cheers died down at last. and he stood
| waiting. Inc quiet. clear voice came
| sure and firm. little shaken, perhaps
| but ringing to the end Of the hall: 81

SPECULATIVE.

New Mexico's canvassing board seems making slow progress in oanvassing the returns. Thirty six days after the election the return ing board had completed the ne- cessary tabulated statement of the vote in just one-half the counties. At that slow rate of progress the official return will not be complet- sd before the first of January, at which time the Arizona returning board, consisting of the chief jus tiee, governor aud secretary of the territory will begin it's work. If its progress is so slow as has been that in New Mexico, the returns will not be completed, ready to go to the President before the first of February. In that event it is hardly probable that the presi- dential proclamation of the state of Arizona will be promulgated before the the first of March. If recollection serves alright Oklahoma was not proclaimed as a state until the Fourth of July following the election in November or December. The same precedent may hold in the cases, of Arizona and New Mexico. But all that is specula- ton and one mans guess is as good as that of another.

opportunity Of making war on France.
Germanys victory was "a deceptive
victory. we are told; both countries

other great powers To follow their ex-
ample and live i'm a state Of insecurity

opposed to their duty, to their inter-

antagonism and incompatibility be-

the German point of view England is
the only danger cloud. and vice versa.
The development of German commerce
is a peril 10 British interests and
places on England's shoulders a bur

in a state of unbearable unealSiness
she will take advantage of the pres

the first opportunity TO attack Ger

Even If England does not actually look
for war, she is ready for it or rosign-

War for Business.

war TOR Business.
London, May 2.-The Standard un-
derstands that the Atlantic rate war,
Iforeshadowed by Alfred A. Booth, the
chairman of the Cunard Steamship
company at a meeting of shareholders
of that company, will begin in the aut-
umn. and that I'm the event Of no agree
ment being reached before that time
one Of the most relentless struggles for
business by means of a rate cutting
campaign ever known i'm the history of
steamship companies may be fought
out. 1t appears that at the conference
Of Atlantic lines held recently at CO.
logne the old agreement as to rates for
passengers and freight (Which expired
in March, was allowed to continue in
force for a few months longer, and It
was decided to hold another confer
ence i'm the summer, at which it was
hoped another long term agreement
would be arranged.
One cause ascribed for differences
Of opinion which exist between the
companies is the reluctance of the con-
Germs which own the largest vessels in
the Atlantic trade 10 charge the high
est prices for passenger accommoda-
ton. II has long been rule of the
conference that the largest ships must
charge the highest fares. Another
cause of friction is said to be the entry
of the Cunard line into the Canadian
service for which the white Star line
has provided service of special stea-
mers.

lines combining to wage rate war
against the lines controlled by a Unit
ed States syndicate and those which

Atlantic steamers are now well
booked for the coronation period, and
to cope with the rush Of passengers
from the United states to English
ports additional steamers will probably
have TO be run, and heavy bookings
have already been made for the return
journey. The threat of a rate cutting
war has not so far deferred intending
passengers TO England from purchasing
return tickets. as IL is more important
