In conclusion he said: “Do not force the government—l do not mean the government of Count Badeni, but the government generally—ln such a way that it will be compelled to settle the question without the aid of Parliament. Not as a minister but as a colleague I urgently warn you. In the most vital interests of parliamentarism, against driving the government to such a step.” The speeceh of the minister was much applauded. ——— ‘‘HANDY WITH THEIR GINS.” Londoners I'xlng the Revolver a* Freely as Border Bandits. (Copyright, ISO", by the Associate,.! Press.) LONDON, Nov. 6. Revolver shootings occur almost daily ii ihe East End of London. On Wednesday. there were no less than four committals to trial for crimes of that description. One was the case of a boy who had killed a girl, another wai of a youth who seriously wounded a woman. the third a man who shot his mistress, and the fourth episode was that of a boy who discharged a revolver in the pit of a music hall. Early in the week a boy of fifteen was shot by a gang of youngsters because he refused to tight, and on Monday a bullet crashed through a watchmaker’s store, narrowly missing the proprietor. The Royal Free Hospital recently had ten patients suffering from bullet wounds. In short, the possession of revolvers is now so common in the East End that residents of that district appeal daily to the magistrates and police for the adoption of measures to put an end to lawlessness. lirituin’* Labor Troubles. LONDON, Nov. 6. —While an early conclusion of the engineering disputes is doubtful. the air has been partially cleared by the disclaimer of intention of the employers to break up the unions. There are also signs that the amendment proposed by the Board of Trade may lead to a meeting between the disputants, as while the leaders are outwardly firm, the men are showrg a more concilitory spirit since the places f the strikers have been filling with nonunionists. There is scarcely room to doubt that the employers will finally win. for the r -nurces cf the employes are rapidly be- > - !ng exhausted, as shown by tne manito just issued by their executive commit-l.-e, admitting that in order to win the strikers must be aided by the public to the amount of $30,000 weekly. In addition to the engineering strike, with threatened strikes ir the cotton trades and among the railroad employes, the muddle in the labor world is dally growing worse. No Document on tlie Crncllixion. NEW YORK, Nov. C.—A dispatch to the World from Rome says: In pursuing his Inquiries respecting the alleged discovery of Pontius Pilate’s report to Emperor Tiberius on the. crucifixion of Christ the World’s correspondent obtained an introduction from Cardinal Sutolli to Professor Stornainol, the director of the Vatican library. The director said: “There has been no discovery made of any absolutely new document referring to the crucifixion. We have • hero two documents purporting to be from Pilate to Tiberius on that subject, but one Is from the fourth century and the other from the fifth, both undoubtedly being apocryphal as far as such a thing can be n serfed. It is certain that the judicial docl. •V'cnt did exist, as Tertullian mentions it." German* Mobbed by Chinese. LONDON. Nov. 6.— A special dispatch from Shanghai, received to-day, says that the German minister to China and the captain of the German gunboat Cormorant have been attacked by a mob at Wu-Chang, e large city in the province of Hoo-Pee, on the Yang-Tse-Kiang.

"ATHENS, Nov. 6.— Threats have been made by M. Delyannis and his supporters that they will attempt to overthrow the Cabinet at the first opportunity that offers after the reassembling of the Boule.

Should the Ministry be defeated King George, it is claimed, will hesitate to resummon M. Delyannis to form anew Cabinet, ,
.Prince** Kainlani's Visit to Haivaii. via San Francisco. Nov. 6. It is understood that Princess Kaiulani will remain but a few days in Honolulu, when phe will leave again for a tour of Europe. She has requested in advance that no entertainment or any demonstration be arranged for her honor and will decline absolutely to take part or even discuss politics. The princess denies any intention of visiting or conferring with the ex-Queen, and from guarded intimation would seem to desire to give out the impression that she is not in sympathy with the ex-Queen’s cause.

The announcement that the brother of the Khedive of Egypt. Prince Mahomed All, is engaged to be married to an American lady whom he met in Europe, and that in consequence he has offered to renounce any succession to the khedivate in order to obtain the consent of the Khedive, is authoritatively denied.

It has fitted up elegant ciabrooms, where the members, who are the prettiest and most accomplished young ladies of the town, spend their leisure hours. New members are initiated with solemn rites, in which they are compelled to make many strange vows and agree to severe penalties for their violation. The ritual prescribes that the candidates shall promise to remain single; to make a verbatim report ir. open meeting of every proposal of marriage received; to learn how to smoke cigarettes; to write a poem or story every month; to perfect themselves In pistol practice; to practice fencing and boxing, and not to permit their regard for any young man to exce-’ ein tonic iriendship. During the ceremony members are dressed in flowing white r,. >, peaked caps and white masks, forming .i ghostly company. The room is lighted with two wax tapers, which •hed a pale radiance over the scene. The penalty for breaking the first vow is that the bride shall have the members of the Bachelors’ Club dressed in their "spooky" costumes for her attendants. The rest of the penalties are equally curious. Cut Hi* and ousin’* Throat and Ilia Own.

FALL. RIVER, Mass., Nov. 6.—lt is announced here that all but one or possibly two cotton manufacturing corporations have signed an agreement to abide by the recommendations of a special committee of the manufacturers' association, which has been appointed to take some step for an improvement in the condition of the local cotton industry. It is expected that a shut-down or a decided reduction of wages will be advised. Some manufacturers are opposed to a shut-down, urging that it will not improve affairs. They point out that Fall River no longer controls the markets, and that it would simply allow mills in other States to meet the improved demand by running overtime. This is particularly possible In the South, and the only remedy is believed to be in securing a national law governing hours of labor. Some of the advocates of a cut-dowm who are represented on the committee favor a cut beginning with the treasurer and which will apply to every employe. NEGRO COLONY. Experiment of Mr. Lillian K.
