has Informed the lord mayor of London
by telegraph that the city imperial vol

Lord Roberts himself does not ex

ENGLISH CANDIDATES.,
Lord Rosebery'g Friends Are Working
Hard for His Restoration to
j Leadership.
(Correfpondenre of Associated Prese.)
LONDON, Sept. IX A curious feat-
lire, comparing the prveent election with
those bitter campaign f 13 and 1S$,
Is the absence of home rule from the
hustings. Except in Ireland It is a
dead Issue or at least a thoroughly
suspended one. The. rights and wrongs
of rituallsta are now much more fre
quently discussed than the once famous
cry which sent Gladstone into retire
ment and put in Mr. Chamberlain on
the government benches.
Lord Kosebery'o attitude Is an end
less source of expectation. Pt far the
ex-premier has given no sign that he
will take an active public part In the
elections, but that his friends an work
ing hard on his behalf Is evident from
the statement of It, W. Perks, M. P.,
one of the leading Liberal imperialists,
who gives the following incomplete
list of candidates who have exprvsted
themselves In favor of Lord Rose
bery s policy and of the return of his
lordship to the leadership of the party:
Captain Lambton. Sir C. Furness,
Charles Rose. Mr. Raphael. Sir George
Newnes, L. Harmsworth. Mr. Tentiant,
the Hon. T. A. Hrafsey. Sir A. Havler,
Mr. A. Deane, Mr. Markham, Mr. Wak
erly. Sir Edward Red. O. P. Fuller,
Handel Booth. Mr. H&rlam, Mr. Mans
Held, Freeman Thomas, Mr. Snape, the
Hon. Arthur Brand, Mr. Calne, Mr.
Kenton, Mr. Alnsworth. E. N. Holden.
Clifford Cory, RussW Rea. Sir J. Jur-
dlre. Sir T. Coats and N. Helme.
There are othr candidates not includ
ed In this list who have also Intimated
their approval of the policy of the Im
perial Liberal council. The old par
liament contained many who are in ac
cord with the objects and views of the
new party, such as Sir H. Fowler, Sir
Edward Grey. Mr. Asquith, Lord F.
Fitimaurice. Mr. Haldane, Q. c.. W. S.
Robson. g. C. Sir Walter Foster, L.
Walton, Q. C. Mr. MeArthur, Mr.

W. Meller. Q. C, Sir J. Kitson. Sir
George Pilklngton, Murn-o Ferguson,
Batty Langley. Sir John Leng. Sir W.
Dunn. Joseph Walton. Mr. Blrrell. Mr.
Hedderwick. Q. C. and Dr. Farquhar
son. Conservative will contest all the
constituencies In London, of which there
are S3 returning go members. At nres-
ent Liberal candidates have been elected
ror only 35. The Liberal contingent In
the djinjt parliament from London
number only nine.
E. G. H?mmerde who won the dia
mond sculis at Henley, Is to be the
Liberal candidate for Oxford at the
general election. An Intnr-jsting can
didature Is that of J. E. Lawton, whom
the North Sanford Liberals are endeav
oring to seni to the house of commons
In opposition to Mr. Platt-Higgins. M.
P. Mr. Lawton texk the leading rait
ir the formitt.m of the Eng i.n Sew
ing Cotton Coiirany ar.d he has b.en
one of Its lea .'or? ever sine1?. He also
tnrew himself Into the imment Aim rl-
(an thread companies J-rrnlga matlon. !
"e is a mender or the firm of Ark-
-;..irr.Ts. Sir T. Glenn Coates Is also
being run for West Renfrew in the
Liberal interest. i
The Daily News says:
"Everybody knows that Cautaln Hed
worth Lambton. who with his sailors,
marines ar.d naval runs did so much
to save Ladysmlth, sees no reason for
approving the way in which the govern
ment prepared for and conducted the
war In South Africa. On the contrary,
he finds solid ground for condemning
them and as Liberal candidate for New-castle-on-Tyne
is trying to put his dis
approval in a practical form. Few men
can speak on the subject with such
authority as he. a fact of which the
Tones are painfully conscious.
"To make matters worse for the gent
lemen who hope that khaki will give
them another lease of power, there are
other Liberal candidates who have been
at the front. The most widely known af
ter Capl. Lambton Is T. A. Sheffy. who
has returned from South Africa and is
actively wooing the electors of Christ
Church division of Hampshire. His
son-ices in connection with the- Im
perial Yeomanry are. politically speak
ing, a thorn in the side of the govern
ment." Charles Rose, the well-known owner
of the yacht Distant Shore, often men
tioned as a possible challenger for the
America's cup, is the Liberal candidate
for the Newmarket division. Un!lke
Captain Lambton and Mr. Brassey, Mr.
Rose has not personally fought against
the Boers, but his experience of war Is
such as happily has fallen to the lot
of few men. Not only has he a son at
the front, but he mourns the loss of
two who have fallen In South Africa,
Mr. Rose has the respectful sympathy
of all men who know his sad experience,
and even political opponents admit that
when he condemns the government he
deserves attention.
Henry Drummond Wolff Is one of the
selected Conservative candidates for
Portsmouth. This member of the once
famous "fourth party," which Includes
Arthur Balfour and Lord Randolph
-i win i . . . , i . '
v-iiurcniii, is ai present amnaBsauor ai
Madrid. It Is understood that he has
resigned his embassy, but has not pre
sented his letters of recall or been re
ceived in farewell audience by the queen
regent. Sir Henry stands, therefore,
in an anomalous position and one which
is. to say the least of It. unusual. The
oldest parliamentary hand cannot re
call a case of an ambassador who was
also a candidate for a constituency or
even of one who. having left the dip
lomatic service, ever entered or attemp
ted to enter the house of commons.

IRON TRICES LOW.
But All Mills at Work and Thousands
of Men Regain Employment.
CLEVELAND, Sept. 17,-The Iron
Trad Review says:
With a larger operation of mills than
at any time In months, the Iron trade
gives outward signs of prosperity but
prices are far from satisfactory to
the average producers. The noteworthy
events of the past week are the agree
ment on the bar Iron scale and the
meeting of steel rail 'minufaotuivin.
Adjustment of the pooling and linlsh
lug scales, after twelve weeks' Idle'
ress of all the leading union mills, will
put additional thovsnnds of men at
work and memta the p toady operation of
the best-equipped bar mills for the re
mainder of the year. It appears that
the pressure upon bar Iron mills Is not
what might be expected after so long
a shut down, and the effect of the low
prices for steel bars mliK In the
heavy sales of July and August has
been the loss to the Iron mills for
this year, at least, of a considerable
tonnage.
The steol rail manufacturers. In fix
ing a $26 price as against MS last year,
took a middle course which. In spite of
dissent from a few railroad olllcials who
have spoken, will Insure to the mills
a large tonnage and yield a pront
compensating In a measure for the se
verely competitive prices on some eth
er products. There are assurances of
large buying for next year, but the
placing of the business is not looked
for until after election. In the pig
Iron warket the 50 cent reduction of
freight on southern Iron to the Ohio
river Is an event of some moment.
There has been some fair buying of
foundry Iron the past week, both In
Chicago and Pittsburg, and the scan
tiness of stocks in consumers' hands
Is more and more demonstrated. Besse
mer pig Iron touched a new low point at
$11.75. Pittsburg equivalent to $12.25, at
Valley furnace. Merchant furnaces are
likely to remain out of blast for weeks
or until there Is a distinct Improve
ment. Bessemer steel Is also weak
with very little business doing, apart
from that between related companies.
Plates after an Interval of slight Im
provement are again weaker. Bars are
Hrmer and the union mills Just start
ing up have heavy specltlcatlons. par
ticularly In steel, that will occupy '.h.'in
for weeks. Foreign iron markets' tnd
to weakness. The Indications In Eng
land point to a recession after a long
period of higher prices, and more ;s
heard there of the competition of Amer
ican steel.
RUSSIANS FOR CANADA.
SlVJ-."?Y Thousand Persecuted Chris
tians Will Settle in British
Columbia.
MONTREAL. Sept. 27.-Three Mol
kan delegates from southern Russia
have arrived here from Ottawa accom
panied by Frank Pedley. the superin
tendent of immigration for the Domin
ion government. The purpose of the
visit Is to make arrangements with the
Canadian Pacific railway for the trans
portation next winter of seven thous
and of their compatriots who Intend
to lenve the czar's dominions In south
ern Russia to settle In the Canadian
Northwest. As soon as satisfactory ar
rangements have been- completed the
Immigrants will begin to arrive.
The Molkans are spoken of as a high
ly desirable class of settlers, indus
trious and frugal, with a knowledge o.
farming and rudimentary handicrafts.
They hold peculiar religious tenets.
They are Christians and tlu-lr views
are obnoxious to the ruling authorities
In Russia. Their Ideas of social and
family life are similar to that much
persecuted section of Russian Jews.
They do not object to military service,
but thf y have long suffered under Rus
sian oppression and are looking forward
to a period when they can establish
themselves under free Institutions,
DESTITUTION AT NOME.
Storm Swept Away All the Property of
Hundreds.
SEATTLE. Sept. 27. The steamship
Tacoma. Captain Dixon, arrived from
Nome today, which po't she left Sep
tember 17.
She had 525 passengers and about
$3(0,dOO In gold dust, most of It from
Ihe Pioneer Mining Company, operating
Anvil Creek rlalm9.
J. E. Oleason, of this city, whi re
turned on the Tacma. speaking of the
recent storm at Nome, said:
"The property sb caused by the
storm will be over a million dollars.
Only three persons were drowned off
Nome beach, but the loss of life up
and down the coast rnu.n have been
very heavy.
"The condition of many storm suf
ferers at Nome Is pitiable in the ex
treme. Hundreds of them had previ
ously been reduced to just enough pro
visions to live on, and the.e In many
cases were all swept away by th'e tor
rent of sea vater that covered the
sand spit. Hundreds of oeople. It Is
said, are walking the? streets, without
a place to aleep."
RUSSIA WILL
PROTECT EMPRESS
(Continued from page one.)
Ishment of the leaders of the Boxers,
as a condition precedent to peace ne
gotiations, means continued war and
perhaps the complete disruption of the
Chlneiip eovernment.
Friendly feeling between Russia and
Japan Is Increasing. France Is hand in
glove with Russia.
Vice-Admiral Seymour's attempt to
undertake the Isolated British occu
pation of Shanghai and to patrol the
Yangtse- Klang has weakened the Brit
ish position while losing an opportunity
to make a d'-finite agreement for non
partition of the empire with Japan.
The United States is consistent but
powerless.
Lit LI Chuan Liu, who It Is unoffi
cially announced Is to be the n?w vice
roy of Canton, Is antl-forelgn. Unless
the allies protest the friendly viceroys
are likely to have no friends left In
Ci Ina.
The only method for dealing with the
situation not Involving the dlvlnion of
Chinese territory is through the friend
ly viceroys gradually removing the
throne from the power of the Boxer
leader.
Americans on the bpH believe that
the settlement of the present question
will decide the fate of enormous and
increasing American and Chinese trade.
GRAVE APPREHENSION FELT.
NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says:
Grave apprehension is expressed In
official circles that -Germany is rushing
into war with China. Kaiser Wllhelm
has given unmistakable evidence of his
purpose to retard, a settlement of trou
ble by strongly reinforcing .his" Jleet
and army in the far East and In the
propositions which he has submitted to
the powers.
It la further known at the department
of state that the attitude of the I'nlt.M
States Is a matter of official criticism
In Germany, and it la unlikely that the
Merlin government will be willing to
accede to any suggvitlon which thin
government mnv make unless forced to
do o by pressure, applied from other
powers.
In view of the near prospect that the
United Statea will enter Into prelimin
ary negotiations with Prince Chlng and
Li Hung Chang for peace, alncere re
gret Is expressed that Germany's rep
resentatives should rvirt conditions to
necessitate further military operations.
It la pointed out that to the Chinese
there Is little or no difference betwien
foreigner, and should the German as
sume cfiVnslve oivratlons Americans
may be classed with the enemy and
tivated accordingly.
Peace ha been maintained In the
southern province only by positive as
au ranee front the powers that the dis
memberment of China Is not content
plated and that when order was tvntor-
ed the troops should be withdrawn
Should one of the powers recommence
military operations now that order, ac
cording to Mujor-Oemra Ch!Y. has
been restored In IVkln and l being gvn
erallv restored throughout the prov
ince of t hi I.I. the authorities rear
that the viceroy will not be disposed
to ket-p the natlwm In ch-vh nd that
the result may bo disastrous to all
foreign interests.
These are th Immediate considera
tions which cause thl government to
hope that Germany wilt hesitate be
fore assuming a policy at variance
with her announced purpose when the
Chinese trouble begun. In a circular
note to the powers Knueror lllliim
stated:
We desire no rnrtltlon of China and
seek no special advantage. The Im
perial government la Imbued with the
conviction that the maintenance of the
agreement between the powers Is a pri
mary condition for the nut oration of
peace and order In China."
In what Is coiisldervd a marked con-
tram to this as'rtlon. Germany ordered
60.000 men to China and. understanding
that the IiuixtIhI government would
refuse to surrender Its subject to b-
punished by foreign powers, proposed
that as a condition precedent to nego
tiation China will be comivlled to de
liver up the responsible authors of the
outrages.
China, rn the other hand, has ap
pointed Prince Tumi, according to re
liable Information received at Ihe state
department, president of the privy
council and rewarded other otllclnl who
wore prominent in the Boxer move
ment.
Germany will find In thl a n ivson for
continued operations, especially In view
of the arrival .if Count Von Waldersee,
but the I'nlted States will not rexanl
It as a sutll.'lent cause for refusing to
commence preliminary negotiation.
The only effect will be to cause this
government to make prominent early
In the negotiations Its demand that the
responsible authirs of the outrage be
adequately punished.
LOUD SALISBURY SILENT.
NEW YORK. Sept. 27.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from London say:
Rumors that Count Von Wai.lersee
would prent an ultimatum demand
ing the surrender of five leaders of the
antl-f orelgn movement have not been
adequately confirmed and were without
doubt premature.
No action of the powers go aggressive
In form and rplrit could be taken until
the reply of Lord Salisbury had been
received at Berlin. It has been assumed
with confidence at the German capital
that Lord Salisbury would support the
German proposes and the Englbh pre
with one or two exc-pllotis has strong
ly f.ivor-' l the cmippir's circular.
Count Von Hatzfeldt I too experlenc
ed a diplomat to confide Lord Salis
bury's secrets to correspondent be
fore he communicates them to hi chief
In Berlin, and it will be a premature
forecast if the scope and spirit of the
British answer until It-ha t-en deliv
ered and the text has bfn published.
There arc. however, strong reasons
for believing that both the Berlin and
London press have been misinformed
and that Lord Salisbury wll not sup
port the Germ in demand that certain
leaders of the antl-forelgn movement,
to be designated by the powers, shall
be surrendered or punished before ne
gotiations are ent-red Into for perma
nent peace. He nan remained In the
background, brooding in silence over
the whole subject, and he will deliver
his answer after all the other powers
have expressed their views.
It Is not probable that he will use
phrases Identical with those employed
at Washington but that his portion will
not be far removed from that of the
state department, with tb single ex
ception that there will not be any Inti
mations that British troops will be
withdrawn from China. Lord Salisbury
Is too ndroit a diplomatist to cause Ir
ritation at Berlin by a polntblank re
fusal to consider the German proposals,
but ho will not commit England to the
Impracticable policy of suspending all
negotiations 'or peace until the lenders
of the campaign of outrage and massa
cre are surrendered by the empress.
English and continental Journals which
have been amusing themselves with
plensnntrles over the amateurish dip
lomatic methods of thp state depart
ment may find their gibfl less numerous
when an old diplomatic hand like Iird
Salisbury reverts to a commonwnse
policy not essentially different from the
American plan.
One point which the leader writers
here have lost sight of is the magnitude
of British commercial Interests which
will be aralvz"d If the diplomatic de
mands of the powers are based upon
impossible condltlw and a settlement
is deferred thereby Indefinitely, British
diplomacy alwayi nas Its commercial
side, and Ird Salisbury's; policy will
not be regarded as well ordered unless
It hastens rather than retards the nor
mal resumption of trnd relations with
China.
The prolongation of the transition pe
riod, moreover, by a demand that the
guilty empress shall present to the
powers on a charger the heads of the
mandarins who obeyed her orders, will
undoubtedly open the way for a partial
partition of the empire. Russia l al
ready In Manchuria, nunlshlng China
by annexation and slaughter, and Ger
many and Japan have their eyes fixed
upon the provinces which they are pre
pared to hold until th'-ir Indemnity
claims ore settled. Impracticable
peacemaking eannot be regard'd as a
natural or legitimate Interest either In
England or America.
