III the elections for the FoIketing, A of
the Left Party, 81 Socialists, 81 Radicals
and 7 of the Right Party, were elected. The
Ministers were reelected, but Herr T. Dine
sen, Conservative, and Member of the FoIke.
ting for - years, was not returned.
The death is announced of Herr krabbe,
a former Minister of Defence.
The late Grosserer, Moses Melchior, be-
queathel 400, 900 cloNns to CHARITY.
The st. Croax Sugar Factory has declared
q dividend of sixteen per cent.
London, May 23rd-The Edinburgh OBJ
servatory has been damaged by q bomb, com
posed of an earthenware receptacle filled
with gunpowder, Professor Sampson, AS
tronomer Royal for Scotland, thinks two wo-
men were concerned in the outrage, and that
they wounded themselves, as blood stains
were found about the building. Tn eXpl
sion is the first real one since that at Mr..
LLOYD Georges Walton Heath Cottage. 1t
blew open the heavy doors, smashed the
windows and disarranged the apparatus, but
did little structural damage.
The Members of The Ministry do not now
appear publicly, unless he promoters of meet
inos guarantee that there will be no disturb
ance; for example, Mr.. Mckenna was absent
from the Welsh Disestablishmen Conference
at Cardiff, although he was advertised to
speak. 1t is believed that the Home Office
received information Of danger to Mr.. Nc.
Kenna's life and others. During the eve
ming Mr.. McKenna spoke publicly, with a
detective at his elbow. Sturdy stewards
elected a male suffraglst, who had eVaded
the Exclusion Committee. In concluding his
address, Mr.. AEckenna warned the sutfra-
gettes that their course discredits their
c@use unayaiIin8ly.
In the Action brought by Mr.. Forbes
AGAINST Sir Stuart Samuel, NJ. p, upon the
Judges order Lord Swaythling produced the
articles of partnership, showing that Sir
Stuart Samuel is a partner. The Financial
Secretary to the India Office testified that
since Sir Stuart Samuel's case, Member of
the House of Commons are excluded from
such business.
Lady Scott attended Commander Evans's
lecture upon the expedition to the South
Pole. He spoke internationally and modest
w., with contempt for dramatic eff cts, mere
Iv describing the magnificent pictures, nev-
ertheless, in Lord Curzor's words, the lee
ture was a tremendous tale of human adyen-
ture.
Advices from Berlin state that German
dirigibles, flying the British colours, escort
ed Their Aiojesties the last fifty miles Of
their Journey, and that the Kaiser and the
Crown Prince, wearing British uniforms, and
accompanied by the Empress and the Grown
Princess, met them at the railway station.
The Sovereigns together, and their con-
sorts together, drove to the Palace, each
couple with a squadron as escort be-
tween the guards lining the streets,
which were filled with welcoming crowds,
distinctly friendly, although not very enthu-
~siustic. The diIigibles SO interested King
George, that they apparently formed his
chref topic of conversation with the Kaiser,
their occupants being visible, and he was
sometimes so absorbed that he omitted to
return the salutes. Their Majesties occupy
the same rooms as the late King Edward III
1908. The political Importance of the visit
is officially mintmized, but the Belgian news
papers are anxious regarding q rumoured
agreement making Germany Be(gium's
neighbour in Africa, before England recog-
nizes Belgian sovereignty in the Congo.
The Smyrna correspondent Of the
DAILY Mail reports that the Senegal of
the Messageries Maritimes Line, was blown
up Ly a mine while departing with 200
persons aboard. The explosion killed five
