Question Arising From War.
LONDON, Feb. 25,—Premlcr Balfour
had sufficiently recovered his health to
come. from Brighton to this city today
to president. a cabinet meeting at
noon. Prior to, the meeting the French
ambaseador. Iii. Cambon. called at the
Foreign Office and had an hour's talk
with Foreign Secretary Lansdowne.
’i‘be ambassador returned here from
Paris Yesterday evening. and a part
from an exchange of views in regard to
the most recent developments of the
war. on which subject the two cabi~
nets are keeping in the closest touch
with each other. there is good reason
to believe that a settlement of all inat-
ters in dispute between France and
been fully discussed by the two gov~
ernments for some months. and the dif-
panose protectorate over Korea. owing
to the emperor's being under duress.
But, it is said that no immediate action
on the part of the powers is required.
as the uuestlon oi’ the recognition of
the protectorate will definitively arise
when the terms of peace are consider-
ed. in the meantime official opinion
here is strongly sympathetic with Rus-
sia’s position. and it is considered that
Russia's note to the powers protest-
ing against Japan’s violation of Korean
Ofllce considers the announcement corr-
flrmaiory of the view that. Russia's pro
test to the powers was designed to re-
serve all her rights and to prevent luv
ternailonai acceptance of the treaty
establishing a protectorate. as an-
nounced in these despatches yester-
day.

made an extended argument before the

against the Grosvonor bill to limit the

the. use of restraining orders and la-
junctions. Mr Davenport stated that
he was associated with James II Beck.
who' presented an argument to the com-
mittee yesterday along the same line.
The Judiciary committee room was
nlled with the friends and opponents of
the measure. Mr Davenport is to be
questioned by-the mpresenratives of
labor: who favor the bill at the cou-
cluslon of his general argument. He
began by stating his objection to the
bill. lie said it would make lawful
agreements between asaocial'r s of
employers and labor unions by r ‘r
a non member of either body would
be excluded and lioycolted: in certain
respects it would make lawful “l-lsnr
Parkism " because extortion which ire
declared was practiced by members of
such combinations as he had referred
to. would be legalized by the passage of
the bill; it Would take away from the
states the right to declare crimmai acts
like the boycott.

One serious result of the conilugra
tlon pt Baltimore is the fact that the
John Hopkins Hospital may be forced
to close its doors The principal in-
come of the Hospital came
from rentals of about eighty
buildings and warehouses which were
destroved and on which not a cont 0!
insurance was carried. These struc-
tures, it is estimated, were worth. not
including the grdund about ii ..300 000.
They netted an income of about 3150;
000. which was the main support of the
institution.
The moral of the above is to keep
frilly Insured. We write all kinds of
insurance. Use and occupancy and
