Gus Monsieur x" who first told him

NJ. Jaures asked the witness pointblank
II Monsieur * was Henri Rochelle him

refuge behind the plea OF professional
secrecy. ". Caillaux was brought IN and
confronted NJ. Bernard. but the latter
could not be Induced to say any more
than that Monsieur Y" WAS neither q
journalist nor a politician.
NJ. Bernard confirmed NJ. Caiilaux's
statement that the date OF the interview
with him was March "a. This was q d.
rect contradiction OF Public Prosecutor
Fabre, who was equally positive that the
date was March 22 and that NJ. Monis,

LONDON. March 23.-Signor Guglielmo
Marconi. who has Just arrived here from
Rome. where he made extensive expert
ments with his wireless telephony, told
the correspondent Of THE Sun to-day that
he was going to New York tho middle OF
May to demonstrate his radioaerophony.
He confirmed the statements in THE SUNS
Rome despatch Of March 10 that he had
solved the problem OF radioteiephony and
that In his recent experiments he did not
use any special apparatus. the existing
aerographic installation with some slight
notifications having served his purpose.
signor Marconi refused to give any
details Of the new receiver he has in
vented which was used In the expert
ments because the patents are incomplete
lie said. however. that II was OF the
simplest construction and had proved 10

popular liberties.
For two years the Government has
exercised patience and restraint in the
presence of treason. That restraint must

TO remain. II is no longer n question OF
home rule for Ireland but n question of
whether We are to govern ourselves or are

Although every officer In the army DE DIS

raised against our Parliament. IL the
army Is to be a Tory institution to coef ce
the House OF Commons when the Liberals
are In power then We will break the army
as we have broken the Lords and make
the army ms democratic as we have made
Parliament"
The Daily Chronicle m.ngies with
similar criticism Of the officers who re-
signed some sharp raps at the Govern
ment 1t describes the Ministerial ex-
PLANTATION in the House of Commons as
the sort OF solution which any hushing
UP policy would require but 1t is not n
solution at all commemorate with the
problem. 1t Is no good telling us that the
officers concerned did not strike, as we
all know that they did"
TIE Daily Chronicle declares that the
whole future Of British freedom depends
upon an answer to the question. "Are the
army officers to dictate to Parliament
what bills shall pass?''
The paper says: The nation wants TO
know the Governments answer. Il !s idle
to pretend. as In effect II was pretended
on Monday. that that question has not been
asked. II has not merely been asked but
It has been trumpeted as a challenge. We
doubt whether the Government will do
wisely In delaying It's answer"
The Daily Ciii.cn, "A Laborite paper
says Until We are supplied with fuller
evidence we are bound TO assume that the
Premier acted with weakness and -rreso-
luton In situation that demanded
strength and courage"
The TimoS says; The movement toward
compromise has undoubtedly received
an impetus from the army crisis. Many
UnionIsts regard the home rule bill az
virtually dead. and all think that the sit
uation has been relieved of It's wors,
features

TOXIC. March 23.--The Emperor issued
decree to-day suspending the sessions
OF Parliament for three days and as the
Diet adjourns on March 25 in the usual
course this practically amounts to pro-
rogulng Parliament.
The action of the Emperor which may
result In a Cabinet crisis. was taken be-
cause OF the deadlock between the House
Of Peers and the House of Rcpresen tatives
over the naval appropriation bill. When
tho estimates were introduced In the
House of Representatives that body was
apparently incensed over TIE revelations
Of grating by high naval offcias and
cut the appropriation to So? .OOo, zoe
The Peers cut the appropriation to s45,-
900. 900. A conference committee OF the
two houses was appointed but no agree
ment could be reached and there has been
a deadlock on the matter ever since.
The situation Is a serious one a. no
budget has been passed.
The japanese navy scandal. respons ible
for the deadlocking OF the two branches
OF the Diet over the appropriation bill
arose out OF the arrest and prosecution
Of the Toxic representative Of the Ger
man electrical irm OF SiCmrns * Scnu-
ker' against whom an accusation of at
tempted blackmail was rsade.
Al his trial IN Berlin witnesses test
fed that a number of high Japanese naval
officials had been paid commissions by
the firm in return for securing contracts
for the installation OF wireless outfits on
Japanese naval vessels.
Charges were preferred at TOXIC
against Nlce-Admirai Fug!i. formerly the
japanese Naval Attache at Berlin and
Capt. Sawasaki In connection with the
scandal and they were cited to appear
for trial before II court-martial. They
were accused of naval corruption.

result Of the disclosures and much riot
ing took place in the streets. In February
