that 'hr present dormnn action 1st a direct
conscqu. t,. o of Lord Salisbury's verbal re

llrllnin. It In fairly safe to say, will now
never formally unnwor Germany's first note,
but her Informal answer, uk cabled to the
Associated Press, had perhaps a creator
orTcct on thu negotiations than anything
elpe afferilng Iho continental plan for
working independently of tho Unite 1 States.
It ran bo announced that tho Information
of the Associated Press, which was bo dis
believed at tho tltno on tho continent and
was the subject of so many denials, was se
cured direct from tho IlrltlHh government,
and It was even morn ofllrlal than the olllcial

With tho Chinese muddlo showing signs of
clearing up there Is somo opportunity of
paying attention to tho quiet ending of the
war In South Africa. Out of 30,000 wounded,
29.000 havo actually returned to duty. Such
quick recovery of such a largo percentage
of tho woun.lud rather breaks down Huron
lllochs theory that a modern war Is Impos
Bible, owing to lto slaughter, though It Is
truo 10,000 British soldiers hnve found
graves in South Africa.
London Is already In n state of expectancy
awaiting the return of tho City Imperial

of Lord Huberts, whose return homo will bo
marked by celebrations such as Great lirlt
ttlu has cot seen for niuny u ycur. The at
tttudo of the Canadian electors toward the
policy of sending soldiers to South Africa
from Canada Is nwaltcd hero with some In

of tho election was tho defeat of Coptaln

failure of Sir Wilfred Lawson (liberal),
president of tho United Kingdom Alliance
for tho Suppression of thu Liquor Tralllc,
to defeat his liberal oppenent In the Cock

scarcely less surprising.

the Ml ii l and Oarnaviui districts, both of

been elected 4M members thus far, 3:12 of

probability that tho rojult of tho balloting

Outsldo tho station the crowd, which was
of largo proportions, stood respectful and
did not give vent to any cries or acclama

family passed to tbe palace were strongly
guarded, but thero was no disturbing Inci

PARIS, Oct. C It Is understood that the
Chambers will reassemble In tho second

desirous of giving tho country n breathing
j space between the exposition and tho open-
lug of parliamentary oratory. Tho organs
of the opposition aro already clamoring for
an earlier date, asserting that tho ministry
Is roluctnnt to face the charges and tho

to bo no ground, however, for assuming tho

UKHL1N. Oct. 6. Public nttentlon is
Germany was occupied to au unusual de
gree this week with tho Chlneso queslluu
and the newspaiers devoted considerable
space to the discussion of the diplomatic
phases thereof. A feeling of general sat
isfaction pervades tho press over the fact
that tho matter appears to bo approaching
a Bettlemunt. The French note, tho con
tents of which wero only published today,
received courteous treatment, but Is con
sidered to contain matter that can wait.
A Foreign oliice olllcial, dlscubBlng tho
French note with u representative of tho
Associated Press today, expressed the view
that tho prohibition of the importation of
anus to China should bo Indcltnitely pro
longed, and U.SO held that tho military guard
to bo maintained nt vPekin oy tho unani
mous consent of the powers should remain
for au luucllnlto period. Ho also said that
since tho powers now hold tho Taku fortifi
cations', tho question of their demolition
Is not pressing, for they can bo demolished
at any time, llcgnrdlug Indemnities, thu
informant of the Absoclated Press said thero
was no difference ot opinion on the question
of tho principle which will prevail, though
tho details will roqutro discussion.
Certain nowspupers criticise tho omission
of tho word "lntci national" In M. Delcasso s
proposal of a permanent military occupation
of tho district between Pekin and Tien
Tsln, expressing tho opinion that the omis
sion indicates that Russia will insist upon
h0'0 ,roPr,etl,rJr ''H111'' 10 lhe district upon
Bund that hor administration of the
ranruuus jusiiiy ii. inv umuiiu ui iiiu rui
cign oltlco expressed tho opinion thnl this
conclusion was extraordinarily far-fetched,
adding: "All tho powers nro equally Inter
ested In maintaining communications with
Pekln."
The now American note, aunbunced via
Loudon, is discredited here.
Whllo the latest German note has, appar
ently, not yet been formally answered by any
ono of the powers, the Foreign oCIco hero
has been informed that they all agree to It.
Tho press of various shades of opinion re
gard tho new German noto as the rallying
point ot the powers In tho present nego
tiations. It Is Interesting, nt a moment when tho
powers aro exercising comity toward China,
to noto that Prof. Jelllnek, professor of In
ternational law at Heidelberg, shows in a
law Journal that relations, according to In
ternational law, between China and tho
powers do not exist, since China has never
voluntarily recognized the obligations of iu-
, 7 . 1 P
equality ot thu states whereas the Chinese
theory is that tho other btates aro vassals .
of tho emperor or 1 tuna, tuo tact tnat
China has been forced to permit ministers ot !
tho powers to reside
at Pekln does not
change tho situation. Tho ministers merely
nJoy trenty rights. Therefore, tho attack
UP" the ministers was merely a breach ot
iroaiy riBius. im cliul'jo hiu uituny iu
ipnornnco of the Idea ot the sanctity of
tho ambassadors.
Grain 'Jutlrn In Politic.
The forthcoming grain duties have been
discussed In a lively manner this week, be
ing the central featuro of domestic politics.
It is now ndmltted thut the agriculture sec
tion of the tariff commission has agreed that
the minimum duties on wheat and rye should
be 80 and C5 marks respectively per metric
ton.
It is Interesting as an Illustration of
agrarian methods that until a year ago the
highest demands wero 60 and 50 marks.
Count von Posadowsky-Wehuer, the min
ister of the Interior In the Reichstag, and
-tho moderate press conceded these rates.
This concession only encouraged tho agra-
I rlans to demand more, and now that the ag
rlculturo section of the tariff commission
has sanctioned SO and 65 marks the agra
rian league boldly demands 100 and 75 marks
as the rates. Tho 80-mark rate equals 50
cents a bushel, aud tho radical papers cal
culato it would mean an annual burden ot
27,000,000 marks upon tho consumers.
Although tho law requiring all stores to
be shut at 9 o'clock took effect October 1, It
Is not yet apparent what tho result will be
for business.
Emperor William, after a fortnight's deer
stalking at Homlntcn, arrived yesterday nt
Hubcrtusstock, near ICberswaldc, to contlnuo
his sport.
Nothing Is known here about the report

PARIS, Oct. 6. Tho flight of tho Cam
bodian prince, luknuthor, to return to
Drussels Is furnlshlug the Parisians with
much Interesting reading nnd Is giving the
foreigners a glimpse of French olllclaldom.
A lending paper Bomewhat Inillscretely
publishes a letter containing tho state
ment of tho grlevnnces which the prince
presented to tho French government In bo
half of hlB father. This appeal for Justice
Is eloquently worded and Is nlmost pa
thetic, although the defenders of tho gov
ernor general of Cambodia, Doumer, claim
lnUanthor and his father. King Norodom,
nro Btrlklngly faithful to tho Oriental
conditions of mendacity.
MpII lltiiNft for tiolil.
They accuso Doumer nnd his subjects
with robbing tho king. He complains that
Doumer suppressed his right to farm out
the Cimbodlan gaming Baloons because the
concession Ib denied. Ho Bays they de
clined to pay tho governor general an an
nual blnckmnll. Tho king was thereby de
prived of an annual rcvenuo of $140,000.
Many accusations nro brought ug.ilnut
Doumer's predecessors and Inkathor suys
ho found among tho leading personages
In tho colonial world of Paris a man who
becamo rich selling King Norodom brass
for gold nnd Australian hacks for French
thoroughbreds
An Inspired reply to tho document Just
published admits tho French administra
tion Is not above reproach, but declares
the documents nro not worthy of credence,
as Inkanthor Is an Impostor, representing
himself as heir to tho throne, when the
French alono decides this matter and has
designated tho king's brother as his suc
cessor. KliiK Norodom nnil fJnmlillnir.
It Is further asserted that In the gam
bling question King Norodom violated the
convention by authorizing traveling "gam
ing hells" In order to exact a turgor In
come. Moreover, the king Is accused ot
conspiring to overthrow French domina
tion by fomenting an Insurrection.
It Ib now roportod that tho French gov
ernment has asked that Inkanthor bo ex
pelled from Belgium and tho Parisians are
awaiting to see what Is going to happen

LONDON. Oct. 6. (New York World Ca
blegram Special Teleg.nm.) Tho persistent
accusations of personal dishonor against
Chamberlain will be the Ilrst topic brought
to be an Issue In the new Parliament.
Philip Stanhope has flatly charged him with
whitewashing Rhodes after tho South Afri
can commlttee'H report, becnuso a member
of tho houso held In his bauds letters which
would have ruined him It ho had assailed
Rhodes. Stauhopo has been beaten for
Uurnley, but other radicals havo takeu up
and repeated tills accusation, which Is partly
Mipported by admissions wrung from Hour
chler Hnwkesly, Rhodes' lawyer.
Then thero Is the dovetailing of the po
litical and tlnanciul interest of thu Chum
berlulu family, owing to their ownership ot
tevernl companies which gain the chief or
a large par of their income from the gov
ernment contracts, proved from the records
of Somerset houso and udmitted by thu
Chamberlains themselves, when tho only re
ply they mado Is that they did not Inlluence
tho giving ot the contracts to thotr firms.
Hut the fact remains that Kynlochs, one of
their companies, although its ptoduct wns
of tho worst quality, with higher prices and
lower delivery than other companies, ob
tained tho lion's share of the cordite con
tracts, and the private Information from
the War olllco of the prices tendered by com
peting non-Chambeiiuln concerns was used
to so amend their own tenders.
A speech by Arthur Chamberlain, the co
lonlnl secretary's brother, Is now unearthed,
In which he asked and obtained a largo al
lotment of bhares at a reduced price, on tak
ing the chairmanship of tho Elliott's Tubes
compnuy, on tho ground that ho could do for
It what had been done for Kynlochs lu se
curing government work. A select commit
teo will be asked of the new Parliament to
Inquire Into these matters, which at present
nre agitating the country to an uncommon
extent.
