CHDATE ft BENCHER
m
LONDON. May 9. Ambassador Choate
was formally called to the bench o the
Middle Temple tonight. The ceremony
was strictly private, not even members
of other Inns of court being present. The
function- took the form o an ordinary
dinner in the old dlnlng-hall -which Queen
Elizabeth opened in 1570, and in which
before Queen Elizabeth Shakespeare acted
"As Tou Like It."
Several rules were suspended tonight
in honor of the American Ambassador.
The members, fully robed, took up places
shout bare oaken tables and the benchers
filed In, Mr. Choate leading the parade,
though the newest member is usually last.
The benchers passed down the center of
the assembly to a raised table. Tho usual
simple meal was served. The benchers
afterward retired to the presentment
chamber for dessert, Mr. Choate this
time walking last.
As he passed the members' table the
members cheered continuously, many old
lawyers in their enthusiasm jumping on
the top of the wooden tables. At the
door Mr. Choate turned and faced the as
sembly and said they knew it -was not the
custom for a bencher to speak, and there
fore he would not. Nevertheless he spoke
for ten minutes, expressing appreciation
of his reception and the honor of having
his name enrolled among the names of
the great men of the Middle Temple. The
entire proceedings occupied only half an
hour.
WYNDHAM TIIUE TO THE UNION
Explains Origin or Devolution and
Why He Resigned.
LONDON. May 9. George "Wyndham,
who had been absent owing to illness
since his resignation of the Chief Secre
taryship for Ireland, returned to the
House of Commons this afternoon, and
as a preliminary to the introduction of
the vote cf censure of Sir Henry Camp-bell-Bannerman
(the Liberal leader) on
the Irish policy of the government, made
a personal explanation of the reasons for
his resignation. He said he had Insisted
on retiring from the Cabinet not on the
grounds of policy, but because political
and personal reasons had convinced him
that he could better serve the govern
ment as an unofficial member than as
Secretary for Ireland. His views had not
changed In regard to the Irish adminis
tration. The union must be the funda
mental principle of any sound Irish .pol
icy. Mr. "Wyndham thought the scheme for
devolution was in some ways more open
to criticism than even the plans pf
home rule itself. The situation In both
Ireland and England had become com
plicated hy a personal misunderstanding
for which he, himself, was partly ' to'
blame, JHo had never contemplated any
delegation of legislative powers from
the House of Commons other than the
power of dealing with purely private bills.
Consequently, he had paid no attention
as he" ought to have done to the earlier
proceedings of the Reform Association.
Sir Anthony McDonnell. (Under Secretary
to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland) erron
eously believed that he, Mr. Wyndham,
would approve of tho proposals of the
Devolutlonlsts, but as soon as he saw
these proposals, he, Mr. Wyndham, reg
istered strong objections to them. Such
a misconception of his attitude was de
structive in tho case of all efforts at so
cial ;reform. Therefore, he had concluded
that his power for doing further useful
work in Ireland was ended.
Sir Henry Campbell-Banncrman then
moved his resolution, which amounted to
a vote of censure for the policy and pro
ceedings of the Irish government con
nected with and subsequent to the ap
pointment of Sir Anthony McDonnell.
Sir Henry said the government had at
tempted a policy of impartial Irish ad
ministration on the lines of the Wynd-liam-McDonnell
letters, but had fled from
It at the dictates of a small party of
Irish Unionists.
After a lengthy criticism of the govern
ment's policy. Sir Henry concluded by
remarking that, as to the future Irish
policy, mutterings of coercion were heard.
If that proved to be the case, Englishmen
would learn tha the real separatlonlsts
were the Unionists who first cajoled Ire
land and then abandoned her.
The debate afforded opportunity for a
wide expression of views by both sides
and all factions. William O'Brien, who
took his seat for the first tlmo since his
election, said he would not vote either
wa. He said that the only way to settle
the Irish question was "not by revolution
ary tactics, but by conciliation and a.
peace conference, in which the bp.st
statesmen of England. Ireland and the
colonies should participate.
Unionist members uncompromisingly
demand the retirement of Under Secre
tary McDonnell.
Fremelr Balfour at considerable length
reviewed the situation. He denied that
the Earl of Dudley (Lord Lieutenant of
Ireland) had any leanings toward home
rule. The Premier defended Mr. Wynd
ham. saying it was natural that he should
seek to find some solution of the Irish
question. Mr. Wyndham had failed, but
there had been many failures before. Sir
Henry Campbell-Bannerman's resolution
in reality was Intended as an attack
upon Mr. Wyndham and himself, which
was absolutely unjustifiable.
If. H. Asquith (Liberal) In closing the
debate, maintained there was no reason
for Mr. Wyndham's resignation 'which did
not logically Involve the necessity for
the resignation of the whole Cabinet.
Sir Henry CampbelNBannerman's reso
lution was rejected by a vote of 315 to
252.

respondent at Paris. Striking workmen
from the leather factory surrounded the
Beaulleu home and prevented tradesmen
from entering with provisions. Finally
the manufacturer telephoned Mayor Lu
bussler that he and nine persons, with
three horses, were suffering from hun
ger. Beaulleu refused to parley with the
strikers until their hunger was satisfied,
whereupon a policeman was dispatched
to the nearest restaurant for provisions.
On his return the besiegers, whose
number had increased, made a show of
preventing him from entering the house.
The Mayor made a speech, stating that
bread would be distributed at the City
Hall, but the excited strikers stood their
ground and allowed only one loaf of
bread to be delivered. Subsequently the
manufacturer agreed to a conference
with the workmen, but no settlement has
yet -been reached.
