Paris. April 27.— What is going to happen on
•lay 1 is the question on every one's lips. A
social revolution, say a small but noisy gang of
socialists; the dl*bandment of the army and
universal fraternity, shout a score of madcap
entl-mllitarists; chaos, which must lead to a
coup d'etat and the advent of some strong man
In the shape of a Bonaparte or a Bourbon pre
tender, declare a few smartly dressed imperial
lets end royalists. All this effervescence is due
to the picturesque but harmless strikes of wait
ers end bakers, to the depressing: fluctuations in
public securities due to speculators on the
Bourse, partly t.i the acute changes in the
eprlng weather, but above all, to the unprece
dented liberty of language in posters, speeches
and newspapers allowed by M. Clemenceau's
Cabinet to the political wranglers, whether they
t« clericals, anti-clericals, anarchists, socialists
or royalists. Premier Clemencrau has taken a
leaf from the big sister Republic across the
Atlantic and permits Frenchman of every po
litical stripe to spy pretty much what fiey like,
but the moment their ferocious words are trans
formed into acts, the moment that anything is
actually done against law and order, then M.
Clemenct-au and his übiquitous lieutenant, M.
LrjMne, Chief of Police, are fully prepared and
determined to crush agitators with overwhelm
ing force. Meanwhile, the curbstone onUors and
pamphleteers play with their liberty of speech
like children with a new toy. and for the mo
ment have lost the sense of the meaning of
■mffl* and revel In denouncing their opponents
as tyrants to be throttled, or as bloody handed
anarchists to be guillotined, while the nubile
rest! the vitriolic appeals In red letters with a
placid smi'.e and pass on to their dally occupa
tions. As a matter of fact. Pails never was more
<julet or orderly than at the prevent time. Noth
ing, for instance, approaching to a French coun
terpart of the peaceful but Impressive march of
the Woolwich workmen on London has occurred
in Paris yet. nor Is It at all likely to occur. M.
Clemenceau's government, nevertheless, is fully
prepared tor any emergency, and those who
keep their fingers on the Parisian poise express
confidence that May 1 will pass without any
serious disturbances.
CRT OF "PERFIDIOUS ALBWS."
As examples of the frantic outbursts of the
reactionary press trhleh. however, have no
effect upon the real trend of the feeling of the
masses of the people— may be cited the revival
ef the old war cry of "Perfidious Albion," as
voiced by Emeat Judet, one of the most brilliant
ef Parisian leader writer*, who. In hi* article In
the "Eclair," headed "Under the Eye of Ed
ward VII." say*: "King Edward VII announce*
that he abandons his Mediterranean cruise in
order that on May 1 he may b* in Paris, the
capital of his kingdom. I* be coming to assist

POSITION OF GERMANY AT
THE HAGUE.
[Special by French Cable to The Tribune
{Copyright. 1807; by The Tribune Association.]
London. April 27.-The Liberal government is
exposed to hostile criticism from the Opposition
for the conduct of foreign. Imperial and do
mestic affairs. This result :s not unexpected,
since partisanship has seldom been more acrid
or self-interested. The criticism of diplomat to
policy centres upon the government's attitude
toward the Hague congress. It la premature
and unreasonable. Kfl harm has been done by
the strenuous effort to press the question or
disarmament upon the congress. The resolu
tions passed by Parliament .last year warranted
this action, and the Foreign Office has acted
with dignity In reserving the right to raise the
question of national expenditures on arma
ments. If the discussion of the question be
either Impracticable or fruitless. Germany will
have to face tho responsibility of riveting the
burdens of armaments upon all the nations. It
will be an effective method of isolating Ger
many on the moral question, and will not im
pair the prestige of either England or America.
Sir Edward Grey has appointed an experienced
working delegation to the congress, which will
naturally co-operate with the American delega
tion and do nothing to alienate France. The
desirability of Hiking up the American policy of
the Inviolability of private property at sea hat,
been warmly advocated by Sidney Low In a
lucid and forcible article In "The Standard" as a
rational and necessary alternative for the priva
teering clauses of the Treaty of Paris. Sir John
Fisher has been credited with uncompromising
hostility to this policy, but there is a strong
force of public opinion behind it.
WORK OF COLONIAL CONFERENCE.
Partisanship has tainted the Unionist com
ments on the work of the Colonial Conference.
This was inevitable when the tariff reform party
has persisted in convincing the colonies that
"Codlln'o the friend, not Short." Lord El
gin certainly has been embarrassed when a
casual reference to Mr. Chamberlain has suf
ficed to excite an outbreak of enthusiasm at
public dinners. Mr. Haldane has been equally
disconcerted in dealing with questions of Im
perial defence when Sir Wilfrid Laurier de
tests militarism and General Botha favors the
organization of a strong force of mounted in
fantry in the Transvaal, with artillery behind It.
While preferential trade is impracticable unless
the colonies insist upon trying the experiment
among themselves and Imperial defence bris
tles with difficulties, there has been united ac
tion on emigration. Judicial appeals and other
safe subjects. While the premiers have been
nearly disabled by excessive hospitality, they
have contrived to do a great deal of work. Mr.
Deakin has not succeeded in defeating bu
reaucracy, but he has made a reputation as a
most progressive colonial leader. Sir Wilfrid
Laurler, with General Botha behind him. has
been Lord Elgin* most serviceable supporter.
He ha* earned a peerage If he want* it. All
the other premier* will be knighted or deco
rated at the close of the conference.
GOVERNMENT POLICIES.
Th* domestic policies of the government still
hang fire because there Is so large a choice of
weapons In the armory. The Prime Ministers
method of dealing with the relations of the two
houses will soon be disclosed. What Is ex
pected is not an alteration In the constitutional
system, but a change In procedure which will
strengthen the hands of the House of Com
mons when there Is a deadlock over govern
ment measures. The Cabinet is not united on
this subject, but the Prime Minister's will must
prevail when he has succeeded in making up hi*
mind. The date for the Introduction of the
Irish bill Is so late that its passage will be Im
practicable without an autumn session. Mean
while, the retirement of Sir Horace Plunkett
from the Irish Department of Agriculture Is
attributed. Justly or unjustly, to Nationalist in
trigue. Land legislation seems to have a better
prospect than licensing or the numerous other
measures, since Lord Lansdowne and other
peers have given warning that It will be im
politic for the Upper House to Join Issue with
the Commons on the policy of multiplying small
holdings. The government ship is so heavily
overloaded with cargo that It must be lightened
before progress can be made.
PRAISE FOR PRESIDENTS WORDS.
President Roosevelt* Jamestown address re
ceives tribute* of hearty praise from "The
Times" and many other Journals, his utterances
on the problems of capital and labor being
warmly commended. He Is described a* a
kindred *plrlt of the Imperial statesmen now
gathered in London, and the fact that he was
speaking on Southern soil, with the conflict of
the Blue and the Gray forgotten, suggests an
analogy with General Botha's remarkable speech
at th* National Liberal Club last night, la
which be expreeeod a willingness to fight for th*
British Empire.
The American Ambassador has met the colo
nial premiers frequently, and his relation* with
Sir Wilfrid Laurier are most cordial. He Is at
work dally at the embassy and ha* many social
engagements. April having been an unusually
busy month, owing to the presence of the colo
nial visitors. Th« meeting of the Dante Society
at Dorchester House was a brilliant social and
literary affair, with the controversial geal of Sir
Theodore Martin, a veteran of ninety-one, and,
the effective retort of the ambassador to Alfred
Austin's superfluous fling at America as the
most interesting episodes. The ambassador is
expecting the arrival of Mrs. and Miss Reid
from America to-night or to-morrow.
AT THE PLAYHOUSES.
The triumph of Mr. Sothern and Miss Julia
Marlowe at the Waldorf Theatre has been com
plete- The audience has been enthusiastic, and
with the single exception of "The Daily Mail."
which la becoming notorious for unfriendly com
ment* on everything American, the critics have
been Just and generous. Mr. Walkley. In to
day's "Time*." pronounce* Miss Marlowe a most
bewitching Viols, one of Shakespeare's true
women, and praises Mr. Sothern and the Amer
ican company for a most enjoyable representa
tion of "Twelfth Night." The American play
ers have had full recognition for their pluck In
producing "The Sunken Bell." which no Lon
don manager had ventured to undertake, and
"Jeanne d'Arc" is praised as good melodrama,
but it is as Shakespearian actors that they
have shown themselves artists of high rank.
They have given a practical demonstration that
American taste in stage work Is better than
English taste, for they enact Shakespeare ar
tistically instead of converting his works Into
scenic shows. .

hibition of American talent In character acting

DEMANDS OF COLONIES.
Britain's E forts to Settle American
and Canadian Questions.
London. April 27— The Foreign Secretary. Sir
Edward Grey, Is taking advantage of tho pres
ence of the colonial premiers in London to ob
tain the opinions of Bir Wilfrid Laurter and Sir
Robert Bond on the questions pending between
the United States and Canada and Newfound
land, respectively.
The Secretary already has had one conference
with Sir Robert, but it was largely taken up
with the discussion of the modus vlvendl which
the United States and Great Britain signed to
cover the last finning season and to which the
Newfoundland Premier strenuously objected on
the ground of interference with the right.- of
the colony. Further interviews will take place
looking to the permanent settlement of the fish
eries dispute. It is recognized that this is not
easy of accomplishment, as there Is a strong
sentiment against any Interference by the im
perial government with the affairs of the colo
nies, and It Is difficult to Induce the colonial
governments to recognize that local prejudices
must give way to Imperial considerations.
The Canadian negotiations are giving the For
eign Secretary even more trouble than those in
which Newfoundland Is Interested, but every
effort will be put forth to bring about an agree
ment. Premier Laurter has been too busy thus
far with the Imperial conference and social en
gagements to disouss questions with the For
eign Office, but he has made an appointment
with the Foreign Secretary for the coming week,
when the whole matter will be gone over. Sir
Wilfrid has expressed his satisfaction with the
hands In which the negotiations were left and
spoke hopefully of the outcome, but from other
sources It was teamed that there are wide dif
ference* of views between Secretary Root and
the Canadian*. In almost every caas the Cana
dian* demand some national compensation In
return for what tbey are asked to concede. As
an example, to give up pelagic sealing they not
only ask the United States to buy out the seal
ers, but also want a further concession from tho
United States, which might take the form of a
port In Alaska, to give traders an entry into
the Canadian Yukon district without passing
through American territory.
At a dinner of the National Liberal Club Sir
Robert Bond took occasion again to protest
against the modus vlvendl. repeating what he
said In the Legislature before his departure from
Newfoundland.

STOLYPIN'S HARD TASK.
Division in the Cabinet—Emperor
Disappoints Peasants.
St. Petersburg. A P rlI 27.-The lack of harmony
botwem Premier Stolypln and the reactionary
wing of the oablriPt culminated last week in an
almost open ruptur.\ and a reorganisation of the
ministry appears imminent. The controller of
tho empire. M. **< hw anrhaoh, a reactionist, who
haa been engaged heart and soul In tne cam
paign for the immediate dissolution of the
Douma. already has received an Intimation that
his resignation was desired. He appealed to the
Emperor, saying he would resign only on the
express command of his majesty. He still re
tains his portfolio, although he la no longer ad
mitted to the confidence of the premier.
The deputation of Conservative peasant mem.
ben of the lower nous* was received by the
Emperor to-day at Tsarskoe-Selo. and returned
in a disappointed mood at the scant ceremony
which they received. They did not have a *pc-
Ctal audience, but were bunched in a big dele
gation of military men and Constitutional Demo
crats and were (fronted with tho usual perfuno
tory expressions of Ms majesty's pleasure at
meeting his subjects. The Emperor did not give
the spokesman of the peasant delegation an op
portunity to deliver the loyal speech which he
had prepared.
According to information received by the
standing committed of the united zemstvos, the
condition of the emigrants who have gone from
RiißGia to Siberia Is desperate. In the last
three months 120.000 emigrants have reached
Siberia from the famine stricken province* of
Russia. Land was promised to them, but there
is no free land available.
A dispatch from Tiflis says that famine Is
acute In Turkish Armenia, and that hundred* of
peasants are dying from starvation.
RUSSIAN FAMINE CRISIS,
Disease Spreading Widely — Pro*
pert for Crop Poor.
. St. Petersburg, April 27.— Prince Lvoff. head of
the somstvo organization for famine relief, re
turned here to-day from the famine districts. He
reported that the crucial moment had arrived.
Scurvy was spreading widely and rapidly In Ufa
province and had appeared In Samara, Saratov,
Kazan and Tambov. In addition to to* phyaloal
effect, the disease produced extreme moral de
pression, which was moat serious at a time when
the peasants nhould be engaged In work on the
new crops. Krgotlsm (poisoning from ergotlsed
grain) was also widely prevalent. The inhabitant*
of wholo villages were affected by the convulsion*
characteristic of the disease.
The government distributions of grain are on the
same scale as during the winter, but private relief
has been enlarged to the greatest extent possible
with th« funds available, the semstvo organisation
alone feeding 1.066.000 persons. The free kitchens
cost |730.«W monthly and an extension of the work
Is demanded everywhere. In spite of the activity
of the zemstvos. Red Cross and Free Economic So
ciety, the official reports show that over one hun
dred thousand persons In Samara, two hundred
and thlrty-slx thousand in Ufa and seventy-eight
thousand In Kazan provlnoes are still In need of
assistance, while the scope of the work in Saratov
province should be doubled.
IMucrt Layoff appeals for the speediest possible
forwarding of the money colleoted In America.
The government crop report presents a discoor
aglng picture of the prospects In the central fam*
Ine region, where the spring sowing is restricted by
the lack of seed grain. American wheat Is being
purchased for seed, as It Is oonstdered better than
Russian. The winter crops, except In the south of
Russia, are backward, owing to the late spring.

WHAT THL RtM.WLRS SAY Of II:
" 'The End of the Game' is the best novel of the Spring season.
Arthur Horablow's splendid achievement with 'The Lion and the
Mouse' must be fresh in the memory of all who follow current liter
ature. They will remember his brisk and poignant style, his pene
tration beneath the surface of character, the grasp upon human
nature. In 'The End of the Game* we have an American novel fresh
from the pen of the man who conceived its pulsating and vital story.
The outlines are his own. They are rugged and impressionistic. The
color scheme is Whitmanesque. His pictures of New York and
Pittsburg are worthy of a place beside the poetic prose of the 'good
grey poet.' These qualities are purely literary, yet the most super
ficial reader must grasp them. The book is a splendid piece of
writing and points a great moral." — Cleveland News.
"Throughout the novel the author strikes resoundingly the note
of realism. A grimly true picture of newspaper life on Park Row is
one of its strongest features. The element of contrast is present, and
that the characters walk with one long after the cover has fallen upon
the word 'FINIS' is proof of their vitality."

ISAULA AN OUTCAST.
Honduran Dismissed from Army
After EuUam't Rebuke.
Washington. April V.— Matt advices received at
the Navy Department give the details of the ex
perience of Commander Fullam of the United
State* steamship Marietta with Colonel Luis
Isauia. a Honduran revolutionist In the service of
the Nlcaraguan army, because of his having in
sulted the British flag at Porvenlr. levelling a re
volver at Ensign MoNalr. and ordering hi* guards
to cover the boat* crew with Winchester* when
that oAasr attempted to go ashore at Tele, Hon
duras, on April 11. Commander Fullam found It
necessary to deal sternly with the revolutionist,
the outoome being an apology, which was not sat
isfactory, and the subsequent dismissal of Isauia
from the army by Juan J. Estrada., commander la
chief of the Ntcaraguan forces.
The correspondence shows that Isauia justified
his action because of his love of country, but Com
mander PuOam did not hesitate to call him a
traitor, because Isauia at that time was In arm*
against It He further told htm that by reason of
Me conduct, he would be treated as an enemy of
the United States, and frankly stated that Ensign
