ingmen who, he declared, had not been
slack. to use every effort to increase
the supply Of war munitions. Mem
bers of the House Of Commons, who
sought information~. were informed
that they would have to wait for the
government statement and they there
fore devoted the time to discussing the
proposal that Intoxicating liquors
should be barred from the House vf
Commons refreshment room, but, be-
ing unable to agree on this question.
they postponed the debate.
The concensus of opinion among the
members was that abstention from
drink was personal matter and that
prohibition of the sale Of liquor in the
refTeshment room where only one dol
lars worth was sold during two days
last week, could not have much effect.
No Conscription
: A definite answer, however, was
made to the question as to whether
the government would introduce con-
script.an. David Lloyd George, chan
cellor OF the exchequer said that the
government was not of the opinion
that there was any ground for believ-
ing that the war would be more sue
cuessfully prosecuted thereby, and
added that Earl Kitchener, secretary
for war was very gratified at the re
Spouse to his appeals for volunteers.
Replying to the questions in the
House Of Commons as to what steps
were being taken to prevent cotton
from reaching Germany, Foreign Sec
rotary Grey said that in accordance
with the order in council, every effort
was being made to keep sea- borne
commodities of all kinds from going
into that country.

In reply to questions by Mr. Bowers
he told the story of his early life. Then
he sketched his political career. He
told OF his appointment on the civil
service commission, to the office of police
commissioner Of New York, and assist
ant secretary of the nevy. He then
told of organizing, with General Wood,
the Rough Riders regiment to partici-
pate in the war with Spain.
Mr. Barnes changed his seat so he
could watch Colonel Roosevelt. Mr..
WINS objected to the line of testimony
being followed by the defence, and Mr..
Bowers said he was trying to show
just who the witness was and withdrew
the question.
Spanish War Matters
The witness then described his first
engagement with the Spanish, and Mr..
WINS again objected. The court did not
rule and Colonel Roosevelt continued:
