Moreover, it la nnllkely that Rrj- ala will ever conaent to awh an Inter pretation until forced to do ao by an overwhelming majority. The two pow era who have agreed to conafder theaa artMea aa ontakle the Mat of contraband gooda, while npanlmona In thelf deelekm, arrive at their ronclnalona la totally dlf fcrrnt waya.

To think of Mile raat trade being tied np becanae two natlone biTe gone to war4 la rery repugnant to the American peo ple who are rightly proud of their Im metiee foreign bualneaa. On the other ha ml, tha commercial anpremacy, If not the very life, of flreat Britain would be menaced If the Knaelan Interpretation were accepted. England doe not produce aufflcleut to feed the congealed population for over a month. and to rut off tba food aupply would be to atarve the country Into aubulaalot),, virtually taking tba qneetloo of defence out of the hande of the army and navy.

Xo wonder there la a steadily growing demand In foreign countries for Amer ican engineers. Problems that have baf fled the ablest men of Rurnpe are being solved by Americans In Egypt, South America.

The pension bureau. It may be remarked, la not exceptional In this respect. Kvery department of the government confalna a number of atiperanrjua-fed clerka, per sona whose value to the service haa been greatly Impaired, but who are kept on the pay roll A because It Is felt that it would be cruel to deprive them of thia source of livelihood, many of them having little feaoorcee and of course le log tmflt fed for any other employment. The iucaflon of what can le done for these snperannnated government em ploye la a somewhat difficult one. Tha matter wte considered by a committee of tbo house of represcntatlvca at the last eesslon, which heard the views of beads of departments and chiefs of bn reaue. In some Instances It was urged that when the efficiency of a clerk haa been seriously Impaired by age he should lie dismissed, but the general sentiment waa that congress should make some pro vision for them. The recommendation of tlie commission of pensions will prob ably cause a renewal of attention to the matter at the coming session and per haps aome practicable plan may be de vised nnder which aged employe of the government will be takvn care of when their nsefulnesa la gone. comveut or home hvlk. Mr. John K. Itedinond, tha Irish leader In the Ilrltlah Parliament, arrived In tlila country a few daya ago and In an In-j tervlew expreaaed the belief that borne rule for Ireland la near. Keplylng to an address of welcome be auld that tb general electlona In tbel'nlfed Kingdom, universally believed, hot to be far dlt- tant, would work the downfall of the preaent government tnd result In the placing of the balance of power In Irish hand. He stated that the Irish cause haa advanced lately with large and rapid atrldca and seem likely to approach a time when Irish power In the Imperial Parliament will get the concesaloua It deinnnda. "We are on Ihe very eve of t most turbulent tlate of affair In Ireland and Rnglaitd," aald Mr. Kediiinnd. "The prea ent government la doomed and It la only a question of week or month when It will have to face a general election. Mr. Chamberlain, who broke up the liberal party, bn wrecked the unionist party, and there la no question In the world but that the neat general decidm will mean the defeat of the unionist govern ment." In that eeut, according to Die lrlrb leader, Ireland will bt put la t t position of extraordinary power. Aa It la admitted. Uiat the next government will have small melnrHy the Irian party with " vote will he of grear in fluence. This all points,, in the opinion of Mr. Rdnmnrt, fn home rule, but he Would not prophesy that the Well people will gcr all they want. Mr. Redmond has come tp the ITnlted State to make an appeal to hit countrymen n strengthen the orgnnlwitinn that ia wont ing for home rule and help put together a fund tn be need when the general eloc flon come for securing the sear In Par- I ilnmenr to which the Irish party Is en titled.

There 1 no itonht that lie will find among hi ,oun trymen here a cordial disposition tn aid the efforts of himself and other Irish leader In the i-nuee of home rule, with which most people here who understand It are in hearty sympnthy. Ireland ought to have home rule and" undoubtedly will eventually obtain It, hut thnt time may not be so near aa Mr. Redmond appear to believe.
