London, Aug. 26.—Quean Victoria
prorogued parliament yesterday,

a:y suld:
• My Lords and Gentlemen: u af
ford.. me sensible gratification to be
,lile to dismiss you at (he end of a
jession Whloh haa been little leas than
4 prolongation of the previous one.
,nd H gives me pleasure to reflect that
your .I'bors, If they Halve been exhaust-
ins. have also been fruitful. I am ^on-
(Mem tbit you abare In the Joy with
irhich I and my people have welcomed

inufion to my throne—an event not
merely propitious, but unprecedented
in tne history of '(his country

It is, however, a matter of regret that

between my government ami mat of

lejled. It la my wish .that these be
.runnel wKhoult unnecessary delay,
mil 1 am engaged In friendly negotia
tions looking thereto.
• In concert with -the president of the
(sited States I have taken the steps
K.vsssry to put Into effect the award
of the .tribunal of arbitration on the
Question of the seal fisheries In Behring
Hfi, and have assented -Do an act of
purliumen't for this purpose similar to
tic art which has been passed by the
congress of the United States. The
,rucmnient of the 'two countrels are
.1,0 in communication with the prlci-
jal foreign powers with a view to ob
taining their adhesion to the regula
tions prescribed by the award.
I regret to stake than war has broken
: between (he empires of dhfna and
japan. After endeavoring. In concert
t,.Li Russia and other powers, to pre-
tent the outbreak of hostilities. I have
taken atop* to preserve a strict neu
trality between the contending parties.
I hive concluded a treaty wKh tlje
emperor of Japan in the regulation at
commercial Intercourse between that
country vend the United Kingdom.
"A conference was held at Ottawa In
June, at which representatives‘of the
Imperial government, of the dominion
m i of The cape and Australasian colo-
Me, met to conloder questions relating
to Inttr-o-riontal tariffs and eommunl-
er-lraa. I have learned with satisfac
tion tbit the proceedings of the con
firmee were of a character calculated
etrengthen the union of the coto-
coneerned, both among themselves
with Ihe mother country.
"Gentlemen of the House of Cor

The condition of the Liberal treasury
•* another argument for retrenchment.
The party's coffers are almost emrty.
Very few rich men ore left In the •organ
ization, and they arc stcmllly growing
fewer tn consequence of the party's drift
toward Social:**. Although this drift is
more notable with the labor Liberals and
It? lk'ils. It Is believed to be Involving
the other elements of the organization.
Heretofore the rich Liberals have been
in the hublt of making large donations
to the party purse, from which the ex-
penses of the poorer candidates were
pall. They received their rewards in
titles whenever a Liberal majority was
returned. This reciprocal . arrangement
has been seriously disturbed by the iin^
pertunate demands of the Radical press
for an advance programme. Probably
the result of this Radical agitation will
be that there will be plenty of Liberal-
Radical and labor-Llberal candidates, but
no money to pay their poll expenses
Many Liberals of the middle class are
anxious for a compromise programme,
hey regret the Increasing political diverg
ence of rich and poor, and are opposed
to the proposed surrender to the extreme
elements in the party.
The Hyde park demonstration against
the house of lords tomorrow is not likely
to put them or the party leaders In better
temper. There has been much Internal
bickering over the management of the
affair. Many English Radicals refuse to
take part In the meeting, pretending that
they needed a rest after the exhausting
work of the parliamentary ses^tan. The
Irlsm commoners who had promised to
appear on the platforms then threatened
to stay away unless more English mem
bers Should accompany them. The Eng
lishmen promised sulkily to reconsider
their refusal. They will go, but not will
ingly. The resolution which will be pro
posed at every meeting in the park
substantially as follows:
"We regret that the government has
been unable to give any definite pledge
as to their action regarding the house
of lords. We call upon them to make Im
mediate steps to abolish the mischievous
and useless hereditary chamber. We call
upon all electors of the United Kingdom
to refuse to support any candidate who
will not pledge himself to advocate such

The Independent labor party threatens

The executive committee say they will

The British manufacturers of armament

war. It seems that both China and Ja

and that each is laying information at
the foreign office against the other.
George Nathaniel Curzon's new book on
"Problems of the Par East" Is receiving
much attention from the newspapers, as
It bears directly upon many questions In
volved In the present war. Curiously
enough. It Is praised as highly by the
Liberals as by the Tories. The speaker
commends Mr. Curzon's argument that,
of all civilised nations. England has the
best opportunity of profiting from China's
future, because England has ample capital
to lend and the English language is al
ready becoming a medium of communica
tion between the Chinese of the different
provinces. The speaker expresses further
Its argument with Mr. Curzon as follows:
"The English are notably succeesful in
conducting governments In behalf of na
tive race* Mr. Curzon argues rightly
that the British policy Is not to conquer
Chlm, but to strengthen her against
Russlq, to gain her confidence, and when
she asks for assistance to give it freely.
Already the customs service Is In the
hands of Englishmen. Mny not the Eng
lish, at China's request, undertake the
rest of ths work of government?"

Berlin. Aug. 26.—The maneuvers of
the North Sea fleet have been In prog
ress for the last four days. Eleven
Iron-clad and forty other vessels took
part In the evolutions. The naval ma
neuvers will be concluded In the Baltic.
September 6 the fleet will leave Kiel
and will Join other vessels, concentra
ting at Swinemunde. where the emper
or, on the Imperial yacht Hohenzollem,
will watch the evolutions. The fleet
may he ordered to Dantic, but It will
not cb-operate In the maneuvers there
with the military. Neither will the
night crossing of the river Voval be
effected,, by the East Prussian troops*

the serious outbreak of the cholera.
This feature will be replaced, however,

They will be welcomed <yi the Satler

who will scatter flowens and do other
conventional things never omitted from
such receptions.
The emperor will unveil a monument
to the old emperor, probably emphasiz
ing the Importance of the Occasion with
tr politick land historical speech. The
npecch will be followed by the march

civic societies. There will be a ban

big tattoo by the massed military
bands and a general llluminaltion will
also occur.
On September 6 the first assembly
corps .which, for the time being. Is
to be commanded directly by the em

following morning the emperor will lead
the corpi away toward Brauneburg to
