BRITISH LIBERALS SPLIT

ASQUITH SOT IX ACCORD "WITH HIS PRO-HOCK FELLOWS. Speeeli Lnst Night That Im Certain to Extend Dineord Xo Preferential Duty on Sugar. LONDON. June 20.-Herbert II. Asrjuith. the former Liberal home secretary, speaking at a Liberal dinner this evening, protested against the pro-Roer resolutions adopted at Queen's Hall yesterday evening being accepted as a pronouncement of tho Liberal party. He declared that Roer independence was impossible, and said the Liberals favored a free, federated Soiuh Africa, on the lines of Canada and Australia. Mr. Asqulth further said that Liberals holding his views had lecn branded as schismatics, but they had not changed their views, had always condemned the war policy and that they considered It must not be left to the Judgment of history. Mr. Asqulth said that at the beginning of the war he believed It was possible to restore the status of the two South African republics, but that he was now a reluctant convert to the necessity of annexation. He looked forward, hopefully, to the time when the. distractions would be ended, and said that they all worked unitedly for Liberal reform and progress. Ry his trenchant speech Mr. Asqulth achieved the complete severance of the two wings of the 'Liberal party. This was done to the great joy of the Conservatives, whose press organs this morning cannot find words sufficient to applaud his courage and honesty. The press is of opinion that the party of many leaders will now find greater diificulty than ever In discovering who is the real leader of thj party.

During the course of a discussion of the clause of the finance bill In the House of Commons to-day the chancellor of the exchequer, Sir Michael lllcksReach, informed a mover of an amendment providing for a preferential duty on sugar from the Rrltlsh colonies that he had no Intention of embarking on such a policy. It would, he said, benefit neither this country nor the colonies; would deprive the exchequer of revenue without benefiting the consumer, and might endanger trade with foreign countries. There was a strong feeling on this subject in Germany, and the acceptance of the amendment would moan running a most serious risk of losing the favored nation treatment Great Rrltaln now enjoyed In Germany. If preference was extended to sugar from Canada, Australia would want special treatment, and then foreign countries would otter tho same concessions to the colonies and ask for similar treatment. He was not prepared to risk the loss of Great Rrltaln's foreign trade, which was greater than the trade of the colonies. The preference granted by Canada had not greatly benefited trade between Great Rritain, for the simple reason that the preferences granted still left a protective duty against the Rrltlsh and In favor of the Canadian manufacturer. Although, happily, Rrltlsh trade had largely Increased with Canaua, the trade of the Fnlted States with Canada had also largely Increased. The amendment was negatived by a vote of 2GG to 16.

The United States, on the other hand, can always count on getting something in response to Its representations. It will be surprising if upon the forthcoming imperative demand the Sultan does not come down handsomely with an Immediate, jlarge promise to pay in full. ArrnnKlnR to Heeelve Kramer.
