AMBASSADOR BAYARD TO STICK TO HIS POST. He Decline* to Discos* the Impeachment Resolution —Strike of HritDh Bhipbolders Settled —France Bbnte Out American Tinned Heats. London, Dec. 11. —The United States embassy was besieged today by newspaper reporters anxious to obtain the views of Ambassador Bayard upon the demand for his impeachment which was made in the house of representatives at Washington by Congressman William E. Barrett, of Massachusetts, on the ground that he had insulted in the country to which he is accredited the people he represents in speeches delivered at Boston, England, and at Edinburgh, Scotland, on Aug. 2 and Nov. 7, respectively. But all attempts to induce Mr. Bayard or his staff to discuss the matter failed, while the British officials also declined to make any statements on the subject. Although Mr. Bayard refuses to be interviewed regarding the action of Mr. Barrett, he has said that he does not intend to tender his resignation.
