10 MEET PARLIAMENT
Radicals More Hopeful than
Tories as to Consequerrces of
an Early Defeat.
INSURANCE ACT IN FAVOR
Lloyd George Expresses Belief
That Now Is a Good Time to
Consider International
Disarmament.
i' ? Hi-.lr ti ' ? - Tn'.unr 1
London, Feb. .'?.?The prospect of a
general ?Motion during the y??ar is Jis
( usaed on ?all Md??? Without any real eon? j
??fates. Extreme Radh als assert that
they will h?' well pleased if the govern?
ment roe* down prematurely on thePer
ainn question or on a snap division on
the. suffrage issue, since in sue)? case
InionlBt? will come in with an inade?
quate majority, w|U be forced to inlro
riu?c n measure of tariff reform and
speedily Dt swept out by an uprising
under Lloyd George apainst food taxes.
? h ut ion o Tories, on the other hand,
dread ?m early election, because they
cannot count upon having a majority
large enough for resolute action on tariff
reform. They admit that th??re is a tem?
porary r?action In favor of the insurant**?
Bet due to the recognition given to the
friendly societies. The truth is that they
are highly favored and that working
people ar?' considerably benefited. Thus
It is that the Opposition prefers a post
j-onement of the election until the
autumn, when the insurance act will be
in full operation and all classes will be
irritated and annoyed t?y it. In such
circumstances the Tories would have h
reasonable expectation of carrying the
country with a thumping majority anl
having the leisure for working out a
Comprehensive scheme of tariff reform.

NEW OPERA BY NOUGUES
Author of "Quo Vadis" Takes
Napoleon as His Theme.
1 By e?bl? to Th.- Trlliun?. 1
Paris. Feb. .'{.?"L'Aigle." a lyric dram.?
in three acts, music by Jean ?ongues,
words by Henri Cain and Louis Payen,
produced last night at the Theatre des
Arts, at Kouen, w'lth much success, pre?
sents a sort of moving picture panorama
of the history of Napoleon. This is the
BlUt time Napoleon has been set to
music. Scenes the most applauded were
Marcngo and the Coronation.
The music is dramatic, martial and de?
scriptive, and the critics present at the
pirtormance say that "L'Aigle'- is mu?
sically equal to. "Quo Vadis." by the
same composer. There is a delightful
ballet In the .second act.
M. Aiders sang the part of NappleOfl
with good effect; Mile. Jane Henrique/.,
of the Paris Opera, made a delicious
Josephine, and If. !>?? Max, the trage?
dian, who has been ntjtm in New York in

that the Japanese have thrown out these

Japan is certainly Impartial in this political
