THE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 13, 1905. Bannerman Refuses to Declare Home Rule Policy. HE FAVORS IRISH LIBERTY Parliament Debates Motion Aimed to "'Draw Out Liberal Leader on issue, but He Gives No Particulars." .LONDON. April 12. Home rule for Ire land was the subject of discussion at tonight's session of the House of Com mons. It came up on the motion of an Irish Unionist member, framed with the purpose of drawing- out Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman (Liberal), and with the expectation that the opposition would evade the Issue, as the government has the fiscal question. For the last few weeks the Ministerial benches have been empty on private members night, but to nlsrht the government was well repre sented. Premier Balfour was greeted with ironical cheers when he entered the House. It was the first time this session that an Irish Unionist had secured a chance to introduce a home-rule motion. The opposition declined to dodge the Issue and to Imitate the government's recent atti tude toward private motions on the fiscal question, and, when Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman rose to speak, the oppo sition shouted In unison: "He didn't run away." j ' Mr. Tuff (Conservative) called the at tention of the House to speeches by cer tain members of the opposition on the question of home rule for Ireland, and moved that, "in view of the conflicting statements by various leaders on the sub ject of home -rule, the House deems it expedient for the member for Stirling Borough (Sir Henry Campbell-Banner-man) explicitly to declare whether or not it is his intention to recommend to the electors of the United Kingdom the pol icy of establishing a Parliament In Ire land." Mr. Tuff quoted Trom speeches by Lord Roseberry, Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman, Mr. Redmond, Earl Grey and others on different occasions as show ing the widely divergent opinion of the opposition on the question of home rule. Sir "Walter Plummer (Conservative) sec onded the motion. He said It was im portant for the country to know on which side of the fence the opposition proposed to fall. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman spoke at some length. He sarcastically and -caustically touched the sore spots of the government and congratulated Mr. Bal lour on hie presence in the House tonight when an abstract motion was up, in volving "a question which would not come before this Parliament." The speaker declined to give a direct reply xo the mo tion. He said it was not necessary to relate the record of the Liberal party, which for 20 years had labored unceas ingly to secure good government for Ire land. He said the principle underlying these efforts was that self-government ehould be granted. He would endeavor to bring this to a successful issue, but in what way and by what plan it was pre posterous to ask him to say. He believed the main purpose of the motion was to afford the Unionists an opportunity to disport themselves with some evidence of unity. John H. Redmond, who followed, de clares that Ireland demanded home rule, not as a favor, but as a right. If there were the smallest reasonable chance of success, he would not hesitate to advise his countrymen to end the present situa tion by an armed revolt; but they de sired to terminate the ancient quarrel upon terms satisfactory and honorable to both nations. He thanked Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman for his declaration but said the Radical party would find this question an urgent and Insistent one, Which would knock loudly at the door of the next Parliament. Premier Balfour spoke briefly, alluding Ironically to the dissensions of the op position leaders on the Irish policy and fieclaring- that If the Liberals returned a large majority at the next elections Irish men might whistle, but if they emerged fcvlth a small majority they would cry In heaven's name for justice to Ireland. It being now midnight, Mr. Tuff Invoked Closure, which the Speaker refused to pply. and the debate was adjourned. EMBASSADOR MEYER RECEIVED Czar 6rcets Bearer of Confidential Letter From Roosevelt. ST. PETERSBURG, April 12. (11:25 P. M.) Ambassador Meyer this after oon presented his letters of credence io Emperor Nicholas at Tsarskoe Selo. (in diplomatic circles, much interest is manifested at the first Interview be tween the Emperor and the new Amer ican Ambassador, owing- to the wlde- spread belief that President Roosevelt 'has already allowed the Information to :te conveyed to both belligerents that Sie stands ready, upon their mutual : request, to undertake the promotion of peace. It is supposed that Mr. Meyer this afternoon delivered a confidential communication to His Majesty from Mr. jBoosevelt; but, so far as is ascer tained, the Emperor did not discuss the question of peace with him. Mr. Meyer's reception followed the traditional old world pomp and cere ianony observed at the court xf the Ro Jananoffs. He was received literally in '"'great and solemn state." Accompanied y Secretaries Eddy and Bliss and at tended by four chamberlains of the court in full uniform, he traveled by a epeclal imperial train to Tsarskoe-Selo. ,At the station the party was met by Count Hendrikoff, master of ceremo nies, and a number of court officials. Four srolden state carriages were in waiting. The coach occupied by Mr. Meyer ana" Baron Korff was drawn by six white stallions, with the grooma and footmen in imperial scarlet livery and with outriders on either side. Ar rived at the Alexandra Palace, Baron Fredericks, surrounded by court offi cials, all on blazing steeds, greeted the party. Mr. Meyer was first presented to the Empress mother, to whom In turn he presented the Embassy secretaries. Then, preceded by Count Hendrikoff bearing his staff of office and a solemn procession of court functionaries, the Ambassador passed the salons of the Emperor's private apartments. Here the imperial bodyguard Baluted. On the library grounds the procession halted and the doors of; the private reception room were thrown open by the Empe ror's picturesque turbaned Mamelukes and, as the personal representative of the President as well as of the Govern ment of the United States, Mr. Meyer advanced alone to meet the Emperor and Empress. Their greeting and re ception were cordial Tne letters and credentials presented by Mr. Meyer were In the usual form and were addressed to "His Imperial Majesty, the Autocrat of all the Rus elas." The audience lasted ten or 15 minutes. "What passed between the Em peror and the Ambassador naturally is secret. , The occasion marked a notable de parture from the custom of the St Petersburg court since the days of Mln-, Jster C. R. Breckenrldge, Mr. Meyer fw earing -no- uniform but appearing. In DECLARES IT WAS A MIRACLE Pope Claims Predecessor Saved Col lege of Propaganda From Death. ROME, April 12. An Interesting cere mony took place today In the Basilica of St. Agnes, two miles outside of Rome. The building stands over the catacombs, where, among others, the body of St Agnes is burled. While Plus IX, April 12, 1855, was receiving there the College of the Propagandajthe floor gave way and all present were precipitated Into the catacombs, 20 feet below. Fortunately no one was Injured, this being by spme persons considered a miracle. The only survivors of the accident are the Rev. Dr. Richard L. Burtsell, of Rondout, N. Y., and Archbishop Rubian, the resident representative of the Ar menians In Rome. This morning they were both warmly greeted by the assem blage at the Basilica. Dr. Burtsell cele brated high mass and Bishop Rubian in toned the "To Deum" and bestowed the benediction on the members of the Col lege of the Propaganda. A number of American students were present The Pope later In the day received at the "Vatican the members of the College of the Propaganda, besides Dr. Burtsell and Archbishop Rubion, who were pre sented by Cardinal Gottl (prefect of the propaganda), as the only surviv ors of the accident of 1S55. The pontiff took occasion to speak of Pius IX. He said many persons were urging him to begin the informative process toward his' canonization. "The miracle of the Basilica of St Agnes," the Pope continued, "is one of the events which will be brought for ward to establish the fact that Plus IX performed miracles. It is a good thing that there are living witnesses to give their evidence." Continuing, the Pope delivered a short address on Plus IX. Dr. Burtsell leaves Rome Friday and will spend- three weeks in Spain. He will arrive in the United States In the middle of May. CHAMBERLAIN BACKS BALFOUR Praises Japanese Alliance and Lauds President Roosevelt. LONDON. April 12, Joseph Chamber lain, presiding at the annual meeting of the Liberal Unionist Club, held today, strongly supported the suggestion of an Anglo-Japanese defensive alliance. He referred to the present Anglo-Japanese alliance as one of the greatest diplomatic achievements of the last quarter of a century, and said the treaty had already justified itself by limiting the area of the terrible conflict which was still going on. The Liberal Unionists, he added, would support Foreign Secretary Lansdowne in his determination to carry out the treaty in its spirit as well as In its letter, and he might say they would be very glad to follow Lord Lansdowno further if the Foreign Secretary thought tho policy he had initiated could be extended. Mr. Chamberlain believed that any mutual defensive understanding between Japan and Great Britain would secure lor an indefinite period peace In the Far East and give both Japan and Great Britain security in their possessions. In the course of his speech, Mr. Cham berlain dealt at some length with fiscal matters and the necessity for Great Brit ain's adopting a system whereby she could retaliate against discrimination and enter into closer commercial bonds with the colonies. At the present moment he said, "the President of the United States, is one of the ablest, one of the strongest and one of the most courageous men who ever sat In the Presidential chair. He Is a patriot, and he has openly declared that one of his great objects and desires Is to connect the United States more closely with our Dominion of Canada by reciprocity. I do not know what success he may have with his countrymen, but. certainly they are in a position to offer' very favorable terms to the Dominion. If ' we reject tho Idea of considering a similar proposition made to us, is it too much to expect that Can ada may turn in another direction?" CEMENTS UNION WITH BALFOUR Chamberlain's Speech May End Di vision in Party. LONDON, April IS. Yesterday's Lib eral Unionist meeting and Joseph Cham berlain's speech are considered In the lobbies of Parliament and in the Union ist' newspaper organs this morning to have done much to bring Mr. Chamber lain closer in line with the Balfour fiscal ideas. The speeches of the Duke of Marlborough and Lord Lansdowne In the House of Lords on Tuesday had laid down the Cabinet policy that a colonial con ference to decide the preferential tariff question could only be held after a gen eral election and that the decisions of such a conference must be sanctioned by a second appeal to the country, which would relegate the actual application of Mr. Chamberlain's preferential scheme, even If it should be approved by the country, to the somewhat distant future. The fact that Mr. Chamberlain yester day fully Indorsed Lord Lanedowne's speech and went out of his way to ex press loud admiration for Lord Lans downe's foreign policy, while the meet ing subsequently adopted a resolution af firming adherence to Mr. Balfour's pro posal on the subject of a preferential tariff which excludes duties applied for purely protective purposes, is held to in dicate that Mr. Chamberlain recognizes the Imperative necessity of going slow, and that at his meeting today he will ar rive at a satisfactory solution of the points of difference with Mr. Balfour. There is already much talk In the lob bies of Parliament and In the political clubs of Mr. Chamberlain's exhibition of unselfishness and devotion to his party, ea shown by this effort to provide a basis or compromise between the two divergent sections of the Unionists. Chapelle Recalled from Cuba. HAVANA, April 12. According to news received here. Mgr. Chapelle. Archbishop of New Orleans, has been definitely re lieved from the office of Apostolic Dele gate in Cuba. It seems that since Mgr. Chapelle was in Rome last Winter It bad been decided at the Vatican that he should abandon the delegation of the Antilles, but, once In America, he wrote to the Holy See, asking that this measure be postponed. The Vatican, however, to put an end to the troubles arising from the accusations of a. personal character against the archbishop, has now con firmed its decision. So Mgr. Chapelle will not return to Cuba and. according to what has been learned here from Rome, It appears that he will very likely be substituted by a prelate of the Curia, that Is, one now em ployed at the Vatican. St. Louis Fair Pleased Austria. VIENNA, April 12-In the course of a discussion before the budget committee of the Relchsrath today of an item in the budget bill relating to the promotion of Austrian exports, the Minister of Com merce said the participation of Austria in the St. Louis Bxpbsltion had, on the whole, given satisfaction. The Austrian pavilion had met with general approval and had materially contributed to a bet ter appreciation of Austrian taste and efficiency. Will Veto Anti-Japanese Bills. OTTAWA, Ont.

The official copies have ' not been received as yet by. the Dominion, Government,. - Mission Board Committee De fends Action. CANT BLAME ROCKEFELLER No Business of Board to Decide Questions of Temperance, Econ omy or Socialism Gift an Act of Benevolence. BOSTON, April 12. A statement was made public today by the prudential com mittee of the American Board of Com missioners of Foreign Missions, which yeterday voted to accept $100,000 offered to the board by John D. Rockefeller. Two weeks ago the prudential committee adopted the report of a sub-committee recommending the acceptance of the money, but In view of the strong protest made by the- Congregational clergy final action was deferred until yesterday, when a supplementary report was made by the sub-committee. Thl3 report togeuier with tnat of two weeks ago, was adopted. The supplementary report which was made public today, takes vip the objec tions of the p rotes tan ts and asserts that they are not sufficient to prevent the board from accepting tho money. One of the principal points raised In the report is the claim of the committee that the American board cannot now legally return Mr. Rockefeller's money, because the decisions of the highest court are to the effect that trustees who have once accepted a gift and assumed certain obli gations have no power to return the gift and to absolve themselves from these obligations. The committee holds that by returning the gift, as suggested by the protesting clergymen, the American board would be made responsible not only to those for whose benefit the gift was designed, but also to the present officers' successors. This statement refers to the fact that the board already has used one-half of Mr. Rockefeller's gift, which was actually accepted February 14. The committee holds that the action proposed by the Protestants, namely, the return of the gift, would have been wrong, for It would have expressed "disapprobation and con demnation of a man when he was doing an act of benevolence." The committee says: "This would have been to confuse the- Ibsuo and to act con trary to the Christian spirit To prevent any man from doing good is a wrong way in which to condemn him for evil. It is as wrong to condemn him when he is doing a good deed as to commend him when he is doing a bad deed." The committee also contends that the board is not organized to decide ques tions of temperance, economy or social ism. It Is held that the return of the money would be the passing of judgment upon the character of the donor and tho business methods he is alleged to have used, and this would be a wong to the church of which he Is a member. The committee adds: "Any accusation against him could not In Christian courtesy be acted upon un less he had first been tried by the church which indorses him as a member In good and regular standing." WILL APPEAL TO THE CHURCH Dr. Gladden's Opjnlon of Committee's ? " decision. COLUMBUS. O.. April 12. When in formed this afternoon of the final action of the prudential committee in accepting the Rockefeller gift Rev. Washington Gladden said: "Thp prudential committee has placed itself on the broad and intelligible posi tion that all gifts must be received, no matter what may be the character of the giver nor by what Immoralities or crimes his gains may have been gath ered. From this decision an appeal will now be taken to the conscience of the Congregational churches and the con science of Christendom." NEITHER WILL YIELD Both Parties to Church Strike Standing Pat. Are CHICAGO. April 12. An effort made to day by Mayor Edward F. Dunne to have the controversy between ilontgomery. Ward &. Co. and their striking em ployes submitted to arbitration was un successful and the indications tonight are that the struggle will be continued until one or the other submits to a com promise. Upon the solicitation of Mr. Dunne, the executive committee of the Chicago Em ployers' Association, the organization which is taking the leading part in the fight against the striking teamsters, vis fted the City Hall this afternoon and was urged by the Mayor to agree to a settle ment of the strike by arbitration. The Mayor offered to act as mediator, but the proposition was declined. The com mittee explained that the teamsters had broken their agreement with Montgom ery. Ward & Co., by ordering the sym pathetic strike in order to bring about a settlement of the garment-workers' dif ferences and that, therefore, nothing could be done toward a settlement by meditation. Earlier in the day the employes and the labor leaders were In conference, try ing to agree upon some basis of a settle ment The employers offered to arbi trate the teamsters' strike alone, but not that of the garment-workers. The teamsters declared thls would be 'utterly impossible and the negotiations were de clared off. There were several clashes today be tween the police and the strike sympa thizers, who blocked the streets and ha rassed the non-union teamsters who have taken the place of the strikers. No one was seriously hurt, however, and to night Montgomery. Ward & Co. declared that they had been more successful to day in making deliveries than at any time since the strike began. Henry Liyinburg, a brush manufacturer, was hauled from the seat of a wagon and beaten by a mob, after having delivered a load of goods today to Montgomery. Ward & Co. Livenburg was overtaken by a crowd of strike sympathizers at Market and Adams street Their first move was to cut the traces and set the team adrift His wagon was overturned and wrecked. He was rescued by the police. A novel expedient, was resorted to by strike sympathizers to delay traffic today. At Clinton and Washington streets sev eral teamsters tied the wheels of their wagons together with chains. It took nearly 20 minutes to break the resulting street blockade obstructing Montgomery. Ward &. Co.'s freight The police were forced to draw their clubs and threaten many teamsters. The greatest 'difficulty encountered in the movement of teams came when an attempt was made to send eight wagons In one caravan from the Montgomery Ward stores to the various frelghthouses. Notwithstanding the presence of nearly 200 police officers the caravan met with constant Interference. While the teams and police threaded their way slowly through entanglements of wagons, people In the windows of buildings of both sides of the street hurled missiles at the non union drivers. The police after strenu- ouaefforts flnalljr succeeded in opening ajjb'.oh'i forget this BULLETS FOR STRIKING MOb Three' Men Dead in Riot at Minnesota Iron Mine. ST. PAUL. April 12.

Women's Answer to President on Race Suicide, HIS SJCIAL SET IS GUILTY Woman's Suffragist Urges Need of Social Heredity and Committee Will Recommend Quality, Not Quantity. WASHINGTON. April 12. Amend ments to their' constitution. Increasing representation In the annual executive session as well as in the triennial ses sion, were adopted by the National Council of Women In triennial session today. Miss Susan B. Anthony was designated founder of the Interna tional and National Council of Women. A defense of war was made by Mrs. Belinda S. Bailey, of California. "There is." she said, "a growing sen timent against war. Yet, horrible as war appears in some of its aspects, all its flowers are not red." She spoke of the American wars from 1776 down and said all had been waged in the Interests of civilization and progress. In a quiet way the observations of President Roosevelt on the question of race suicide are receiving the atten tion of some of the prominent dele gates. Some of them take Issue with the President on the subject and say he ehould look to the women of his own social set for race suicide. "The women of the middle classes and the women of tho 'submerged half,' as we call It, do not practice race suicide," said one of the delegates. Tomorrow a resolution will be re ported on the question of parenthood, which, It Is said, will take Issue with the President's views on the question of raoe sulolde and will declare that "quality, not quantity" in children Is preferable. Tonight Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the National Woman's Suffrage Association, made an address in which she openly spoke her mind on the question of parenthood, saying in part: "It is said that women should rear more children, but, I say that you must first make your country fit to rear children In. We need to make this world safe for children. To do so we must give them social heredity, so that they will be born in safe condi tions and protected until grown. This cannot be dqne until women have rights In the state to protect them. We must have city mothers, as well as city fathers. We desire the suf frage as a means to an end."

Hirsch, of Chicago, said: "The most delicate perfciae upon the baud t is not a s&n of freedom from germa, and the most refined are not free from dis ease of lnng or throat, and -the germs are rapidly spread by touching the hand that has handled the handkerchief of one afflict ed with a cold, catarrh or consumption. The breath one inhales from the lungs o! anothermaycontaingcrmsof disease." Yen will not only be able to resist the germs of consumption, but many thousands of cases have been known where persons who were suffering from incipient phthisis, or the early stages cf consumption were absolutely cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery. It maintains a person's nutrition by enabling him to eat, retain, digest and assimilate food. It overcomes the gastric irritability and symptoms of indigestion, and thus the person is saved from those symptoms of fever, night-sweats, headache, etc., which are so common. An alterative extract like Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, made of roots and herbs, without the uee of alcohol, will assist the stomach in assimilating or taking up from the food such elements as are required for the blood, will assist the liver ia throwing off the poisons in the svstem. Do not permit some designing druggist to insult yonr intelligence by offering yon a remedy which he claims is "jest as good" because he made it up himself, or ten chances to one you will get a medicine made up largely of alcohol, which will only weaken the system.
