STRENGTHENING OF GARRISON NECESSARY l nleaa Lord Cromer la Energetically Sapported flfaatlna May Develop that Will Reqalre tera Meaaarea. TjOV1K)N. July i. Parliament and the country were given a surprise tonight by a sensational speech by 8lr Edward Grey, the foreign secretary, on the situation in Egypt. An Interesting debate on foielgn affaire had been anticipated when the House of Commons took up the foreign estimates, hut on account of Russia and the- Congo rather than Egypt- Other sub jects, however, were temporarily shelved when the house realised the momentous character of 9lr Edward Orey'e deliver ance with regard to Egypt. Speaking In a solemn tone and amid a tense alienee, the minister declared that the recent attacks on Rrltleh officers at Tantab were not accidental, but a deliber ate manifestation of the fanatical spirit which had necessitated the strengthening of the garrison In Kgypti and declarej that unleaa the authority of Lord Cromer and the Egyptian government Is strongly upheld, it might lead to a situation re quiring the adoption of stern measures. Debate on Foreign Estimates. In the course of the consideration of the foreign estimates by the House of Com mons today several members offered criti cisms, especially urging that a fleet be not sent to Cronstadt. John Dillon, nationalist, strongly de nounced what he termed the brutal bar barism of floggings and executions In Egypt, accusing Sir Edward Grey, the for eign secretary, of a desire to cloak the affair. Blr Edward. In a general reply, stated that all foreign relations were friendly. With regard to the Egyptian affairs, he accepted full responsibility and pointed out ht danger might accrue, when dealing wl'h eastern peoples, through discussions of this kind. Earl Grey's Momentona Statement. The secretary proceeded to refer to tha local growth of fanatical feeling in Egypt and throughout North Africa recently, which might necessitate even further meas ures to protect Europeans in Egypt; and, speaking In a solemn manner, said: "As things are now. I say delilierately and with a full senne of responsibility, that If Parliament does nothing at this mo ment you will come face to face with a very serious situation, for should fanati cism get the better of constituted authority there might arise the necessity for extreme measures." Dealing with the Congo question, the foreign secretary said he distrusted the proposed reforms, because the system was wrong. He disliked trading companies snd believed the root of the whole mischief was In the system under which the state it- aelf was a trading company and monopo llat companies held administrative power. If others would Join Great Britain In Insist ing ofi reforms the govennnut would wel come them. If the Congo stale talked of Its rights. Sir EdwaTd said, Great Britain alao had rights. The queation of the reaervatlon of enormous armies for private property must be dealt with, and If any dispute arose there wss The Hague tribunal. He believed It would be beneficial to re sume British consular Jurisdiction, but It would be discouraging Belgium from taking over the Congo government and, therefore. he thought, tha government should wait; but they could not wait forever. With regard to the proposed visit of a British fleet to Cronstadt. the foreign secre tary said hs felt assured that the central government of Russia was neither aware of nor had connived at the recent unfortun ate occurrences. No Interference from the outside wotild strengthen a reform party, but rather the reactionaries or revolution ists. As a British fleet waa In the Baltic last year and had not " visited Russian ports. It would be remarkable If a fleet should not do so this year. He hoped the usual civilities would be observed. The fleet would go entirely without reference to liuaalan Internal affaire. It would be im possible to mske a change now without giving rise to the suspicion that Great Britain waa taking sldea The visit would be in a friendly spirit, to pay compliments to Emperor Nicholas and the Russian na tion. Blr Edward said he could not imagine the Russian Parliament Interpreting the visit ss taking aidea. ZIONISTS ELECT OFFICERS American society Closes Its Kesaloa at Taaaerarllle, TI.

Kern of t ounsel for the hotel companies during the argument today called attention to the danuige that had bou done the two properties, valued St $2,000,010, on account of the publication of the raids, and insisted that the hotel com panies had no control of the casinos what ever; that the casinos had been leased to thiio peraons for a term of yeara and after the leases hsd been signed the hotel companies had brought suit to cancel thrsi leases upon finding that gambling waa be ing allowed In the casinos, and that these suits sre now pending In the Orange county courts. Attorney General Miller said these suits brought to cancel the leases were Jokes.

A curloua crowd watched the opening of the machines, which wore found to contain only $.'79.63 In all. The ofllrUls were greatly aurprised, as It was confidently expected that the devices would rontnln a large sum. The money was placed In hank to await the order of the court. FRENCH LICK SPRINGS, Ind., July 6. Thomaa Taggart, chairman of the demo cratic national committee, today gave the Associated Prews the following statement made in reply to the demand by the New York World that he inlgn the chairman ship of the national committee. The World has allowed Itself to be Im posed upon by the f ise and scandalous publications of a rtval newspaper, whose editor la my personal enemy for reasons ii-l Known to nimaeii. There haa been no raid nor attempted raid upon the French l.tck Springs hotel, nor haa such a thing been thought of, save by Mr. Hearst and his correspondents. A building owned by the French Lick Springs company, wholly disconnected from the hotel property, waa .leased to a party to be used for lilllards and bowling alley, with a strong clause against gam bling in the lease. ,VArtcr a time this tenant permitted gambling. We brought suit for poseaesslnn on the ground of the breach of that provinion in the leases and recovered Judgment. He appealed the case and it ta pending for trial In the present term of court. The sta'e authorities have supplemented our efforts to recover posses sion by raiding that building, and that is all there is to the grossly sensatlonul publications in which (nse the World has placpd credence. The French Lick Springs hotel lias not and will not tolerate gambling in any form on lta premises. This is attested by the court records, which show our efforts to suppress It, and It la well known to Mr. Hearst, who with sucn Knowledge continuea tbe publication of Ills vindicative and libel, out falsehoods. T regret that the World has seen fit to dignify t he atrocious false hoods by .editorhtl iu itiri. - '-- . The proposition that should resign Is preposterous. It deserves and will receive no attention. (Signed) T. TAGGART. ROOSEVELT WILL NOT ATTEND President Cannot Prealde at Recep tion Travelers Are to Rive to Bryan, OYSTER BAT. N.

Mls.i Carrie Halterman of Cook, Neb., temporarily at 311 North Fifteenth street, severely Injured. She is a niece of Mrs. Ed Black. The accident at Luke Manawa the night of the Fourth proves more riisastroua than at first upH-rd. Instead of only one be ing dead, as at first given out. five mors bodies hae been recovered from the water and at least one more peraon is missing who Is supposed to have been at the re sort on that evening, and the presumption is that his body Is still In the lake. Tes terdsy morning when Inquiries began, to be made for people wno had hot returned -to their home, the night before work wsa commenced diving in the water near tha acene of the accident In the effort to lo cate other bodies. In this and other ways five more were brought to the surface. After this Jugs of lime were sunk In the water and exploded from the action 'of the water In the hopes of the concussion raising to the surface any bodies which might still be In the lake. Thla was pro. ductlve of no results, and from the fact that only one more person Is reported miss ing the death list Is thought to be not In excess of seven and possibly not mdre than, six, which Is the number of bodies actually recovered. In addition to this there are a large num ber of Injured, running from slight con tusions to a broken kneecap. The only one which la considered In any way dan. gerous Is that of Miss Jessie Newhy, who had an arm lacerated by a rusty nail, and this may result seriously, though she is receiving the best of medlcsl attention st the Wise MemorlaJ hospital, snd It la thought the wound will heal readily. A number of others who received no visible Injuries are confined to their beds as a result of the chill and nervous shock. Home Pltlfnl Scenes. Friends snd relatives of those who wera missing Wednesday night were at the Iska watching the work of those seeking to recover the bodies. The suspense was heartbreaking and as each body wsa brought to the surface there waa a rush, each one thinking perhaps it waa that of their loved one. The grief of those who found their fears realized was almost matched by those who. certain of their be reavement, were forced to wait yet awhile for the appearance from beneath the waters of the lake of the Inanimate bodies of those who were dear. The pitiable scene, at the lake when tha bodies of the victims were Identified by their relstlves was repeated when the bodies were brought to the rooms of tha Cutler undertaking establishment on Pearl street. An Immense crowd lined the street as the temporary rsskets containing the bodies were removed from the motor which brought them from the lake. Two police officers were necessary to prevent the crowd from forcing Its way Into th building. The entire afternoon and a part of the evening a crowd remained In the vicinity of the undertaking rooms, anxious to secure a look at the victims of the catastrophe, but this was denied except to friends and rela tives of the dead. The first Identification of Elmer Scott Huff, the only man of the six victims, was brought about by some visiting cards which were found on his person. The bodies of Lena Rosenblum, Mary Slieehan. Mary Ioney and Bessie Hyland were taken later in the day to Omaha. The body of Mr. Huff will be taken to Omaha today. "Three Faaerale Today.
