ANNUITY TO COUSIN
OF KING OPPOSED
British NJ. p. Would Stop
Pay of Prince Fight
ing for Germans.

London. Nov. 25.-The question
whether the payment Of big annuities
was being made so certain relations
of the reigning royal family when
members of their families were fight
ing for Germany against Great Brit
ain was raised in the House of Com
mons to-day by William Young, Mem
Der of Parliament for Perths shire.
Mr.. Young asked Premier AsqVith
whether he was aware that Prince Al
bert of Schleswig- Holstein, son Of
Princess Christian of Schleswig H0l-
stein, a daughter of the late Queen
Victoria and aunt of King George. was
engaged as a combatant with the Ger
man army, whether the prince was In
this country at the outbreak Of the
war and whether any effort had been
made 20 detain him.
Mr.. Asquith replied CURLY that he
had been informed that Prince Albert
was serving in a military capacity IN
Germany" but that he had no knowl-
edge when he left England. Mr. Young
then suggested that the status Of the
Princes family, who. he said. evidently
were German citizens, should be in
Quired into, and asked the Premier
whether he considered II "just and eX-
pedient that the British taxpayers
should be called on 20 pay $4,000 a
year for the upkeep Of this family
To this Mr. Asqui1h made no response.
The propriety Of continuing similar
pension to the Duchess Of Albany,
widow Of q son OF Queen Victoria,
whose son, the Duke of Saxe-C oburg
and Gotha, is fighting for Germany,
also has been questioned.

WAR NOT CAUSE
FOR u. S. TAXES
Imports Show Big Increase
Over Last YCar-Tariff Law
TO Blame for Revenue Loss.


Washington. Nov. %. Charges that
the war tax bin was unnecessary and
that any deficit IN revenue was not due
to the war, but 20 the passage of the
Underwood tariff bill, were practically
verified to-day IN q report issued by
Secretary Reddcid Of the Department
Of Commerce.
The report shows that the imports
for the United States for the ten
months ended October 81 Of this year
were more than SIS, 100000 greater
than for the same ten months of the
preceding year The imports for the
ten months ended October Of this year
were Sl,5IS,53l 1874, compared with a
total Of 81 40 ,33i. 1878 for the same ne
Rod last year. For the month Of Oc-
tober this year the imports were $685.
$50, compared with total for the
same month last year. when there was
no war, OF Sl32,949, 1902. an increase for
October this year OF more than
$4,000 600.
These figures. which, of course. are
official, were regarded here to-day as
"a striking indictment OF the efficacy
of The Underwood tariff bill, the more
so because they were given our by a
member of President Wilson's Cabinet.
1t was contended that they prove that
the cry Of the Democrats that the loss
in revenue 20 this country was due 70
the war was unfounded, and that lot
of explaining will have TO be done by
Democratic statesmen 20 prove, or try
TO prove, that anything outside Of the
administrator new Tariff bill was re-
,ponsible for the slump.
Il was also declared that a lot of ex-
planning will also be necessary 10 prove
that IN the frce OF Increasing exports
