LONDON, Oct. 21. Tho Prince of Wales today received former President Dcnjamin Harrison In nudlcnco nt Marlborough house. Mr. Harrison vis ited tho Huso of Commons, accompan ied by A. J. Dal four, tho government leader in the houso and tho flrat lord of tho treasury. Tho chancellor of tho exchequer, Sir Michael Hlcks-Dcach, made a state ment in the house on tho question of tho expenditure entailed by tho Trnns vaal war. Ho Bald the expenditure for tho' year had been increased by the supplementary voto to a total of 121, 205,000, but, ho added, tho icvcnue had Increased and ho expected thero would bo nn Increase of 2,000,000 over tho csthnato of the revenue. This would ho a considerable contribution toward tho unforseen expenditure nnd would havo ubout 7,000,000 to bo provided. Ho thought there should bo no addi tion to tho fixed debt, but that tho monoy should bo ralBcd by a tempo rary addition to tho floating debt. Tho chancellor of tho exchequer therefore asked for power to rnlso 8,000,000 by treasury bills, the wholo question of payment nnd tho question of fresh tax ation to bo loft to tho next flnanclnl year. Sir Michael also pointed out that tho present war differed from nrcvlous oncB nnd that tho estimates had been moro carefully drawn up. No one could forenco what tho total would bo; but tho Drltlsh troops hnd met wltn .brilliant success and tho colonies wero loynl. Although tlicro might bo some thing In today's news giving cause for nnxlety, yet ho saw no reason to nn tlclpnto that tho cnmpalgn would not uo brought to n successful cnan with in tho period for which tho estimates wcro framed. As Drltlsh colonics hnd ucen mvnucti, no considered It to ba consistent with all tho lawa of war if. when It wns brought to a successful termination, tho Transvaal should nt any rate linvA bear part of tho cost. Tho Transvaal, ho continued, wns wealthy In ItB goldon ylolds. There hnd been complaints from thoso Interested in thO gOldflCldS that thero hml linnn nV ccsslvo tnxatlon, but ho believed from iiiu uesi miormation that under a pure and honest government It would bo perfectly posslblo for tho Transvaal ttv linn.

Sir Henry Campbell-Dannermnn. tho leader of tho opposition, agreed that this was not the propor time to dis cuss tho financial question and that it was not desirable to show a sign of disunion. Tho proposals of Sir Mlchaol Hick?- Deach wore agreed to by n voto of 335 to 23.
