of them In Anna destroyed, us far as the
property ot the government supporters
was concerned, no less than seven vil
lages; old women, men and children being
driven for shelter Into the bush.
On the return of tho royal troops to
Apia from Saluafata, where the surren
der hod token place, a number of meet

Great Britain.
London, Sept. 29.—Both private ap
peals and public vvarwlnae by the lead
ers of the Irish party have failed to
disturb the rotlconce of the ministry
with regard to the policy they Intend
to pursue during the coming tseeslon cf
parliament, and the iposltlonof -political
affairs verges on a greait’crlslri. Lord
Rosebery shirks In every way tlie
bringing before -the cabinet of the ques
tion of the government's pojley with re
gard to the house of'lards, fearing that
dbsenslons will arise and than the min
istry wifi be disrupted* (through the
withdrawal, of the 'members opposed to
the abolition ot the peers' veto power.
The adoption ot the programme re
cently proposed by the Duke Of Devon
shire and Mr Chamberlain, marking the
complete absorption ot the unionists
by the conservatives, tlie chief feature
of which was the revision of Mr. Cham
berlain's scheme for Irish local govern
ment to Ithe extent of creating county
councils, with the central leslis-tuiture
located In Dublin . Is now doubtful.
Lord Rostoery’s communications rather

have sot tied upon the policy to bo pur-
Btiod regarding the house of lords, With
tho councils to be held In November
and December, no (KilnHe announce
ment upon 'the subject ought to be ex
pected.
The feeling of distrust of the sincer
ity of tho premier is not now confined
to tho radicals and the Irish, but per
vades the whole ot 'the liberal party,
and only a straight forward declaration
ot policy on the house of lords and home,
rule questions can save him from being
overthrown.
'In n letter recently written, Mr. Hen
ry Lnbouchero says he despairs of tho
government and that he and the fol
lowing with him will in the future pur-
uue an. Independent course.
.Messrs. William O’Brien, Justin Mc
Carthy and Timothy llealy have made
declarations In which they notify tho
government that unless the govehn-
meat's wttltude on the house of lords
question Is clearly defined at the open
ing of parllianvenit they will use their
undivided power to bring about a dis
solution. If Lord Rosebery decides to
satisfy these demands, ho will 11ml It
necessary to reconulruct his mlnoriiry,
expelling th-<»c of the (element .hostile
to the house of lords reform.
The Conservatives, os soon as the bill
depriving :ho house of lopds of tho pow
er to veto shall have been announced,
will adapt obstruction tactic*.
The London corporoAlon, though gener
ally looked upon os tho hot-bed or In
trigue and corruption, ucuully hide their
rivalnit-s over the spoils from tho public
view, but the contest today over the elec
tion of a lord mayor wan too heated to
admit of concealment. Much recrimina
tion was Indulged In by the contending
partlea According to regular rotatHoii,
Sir Joseph Renals, representing tho At-
dergate ward, ought tu have been elected
to the lor.1 mayorship. Sir Joseph for
tho past four years has been a promoter
and director of tztnu great companies, the
united capital of which reached the mm
of U,302,015, and not one of which paid a
dividend. Tlie shares of these lompunlcs
stock wete without quotation.
Possibly Sir Joseph might have slid Into
the lord 'mayor’s rihaitr without a scandal
had it not been that he suffered tro-m
the obluquy attached to a succession of
his predecessor'!.
Btr Joseph Renals has written an open
letter In which he protests that his con
