THE HOI'SE OF COMMONS VOTES FOR

THE INQUIRY

VU. CHAMBERLAIN AJOCOUKCBS THAT THK faTTO-

ation in- Tun norn urtTBUC was OCT-

tint, woaaa ixarsAD of better.

London, Jan. 20.In the House of Commons

to-day thc discussion of thc question of the a;>-

potntnwnt of a committee to Inquire Into thc

tumbles in Booth Africa waa resumed. In the

r 'urse of the debate Joseph Chamberlain. Secre¬

tary of State for the Colonies, declared Ihat thc

j. ..sltlon In South Africa was still unsettled, and

t'vat during Ihe last few months lhere had boen

I recurrence and Increase In growth ol* tho feel-

ire of aarsst, which must be allayed. Matters

bad been rendered much worse, ho said, by Ihe

recent 'eRls'atlon cn the part of tho Hoer Parlia¬ment, and, moreover, although PresidentKruger had again and again promised to givefavorable consideration to thc grievances of the

ritlanders, he hud not done so. Great Britain,Mr. Chamberlain declared, still maintained that

pegce was Insecure, and would remain so until

the Dltlanders" grievances '.vere redressed. He

fi ii sure that an Inquiry by a committee formed

I - -: * ; urpose would further those ends.

S-.r William Harcourt, the leader of ihe Oppo-fll rn, reminded the House thnt the proposed In¬

quiry was not only for the House of Commons,

but fer the whole world as well. He then spokein favor of the motion and against the amend-

jvent offered yesterday by M. J. Macl.ean, Whichrecited that In view of the peacerul settlement

of the South African question and the punish-ment of the Transvaal raiders, lt would be In¬

expedient to reopen the matter, and needless to

ri appoint the committee.Mr. Madigan then withdrew his amendment,

e.n.l eventually a South African committee waa

appointed.In reply to a question by Slr George Rader.-

PoweU Mr. Chamberlain said that the Govern¬

ment, with the approval of Her Majesty, had

Invited the Prime Ministers of the several colo-

r.te.-i to come to Kngland and take part in thecelebration of the completion of the sixtiethj ear ."f the (jueen's reign. (Cheers.) If the in¬

vitations were accepted. Mr. Chamberlain con¬

tinued, tho Premiers- would be the guests of<",r*-at Britain. (Cheers.) Replies to the lnvita-t! vs. he added, had already been received fromthe Premiers of Canada, and the other North

Amer!* an colonies, the Cape Colony and Natal,all of which were extremely gratifying

SELECTIONS FROM THE MAIL

A TRIRT'TE TO MR. HORR.HIS liTU-AT STROKER OF WIT IN" I OWtlgM1I0W>11

l'KRATR-WS IM'OTF.cTIONIST VIEWS*.

To the Editor of The Tribune.¦lr: I recently applied to The Tribune for In¬

formation In regard to Roswell (J. Horr. It was

sad to have that Information supplemented so soon

by the announcement of his death.I have fi Hewed the debates in .'ongress, from a

S boy, and remember quito distinctly the greatstrokes of wit which Mr. Horr made In the House.Ho you remember thc one In which he ridiculedtbs Idea of duelling? 1 think hs answered a

practical challenge from Mr. Townsend, of Illi¬nois, to Oenerai Garfield, though I have not lookedit np for years. Mr. Horr said lie failed io see

the courage which was sssumed by sumo gantk*-men when they proposed Ibo settlement of a dla*puta In a Banner which thpy knew no Northernman would accept Tho method was unfair, be¬cause, If his colleague nnd himself were to fight a

duel, bis colleague would he shooting al an oakof tho fores:, while h,. would have the disadvantageof tiring al a basswood sapling. Ha had noticedalso that the result of duels had generally beenthat tha person killed was mo whose loss de¬prived Ihe Nation of services which were valuable,while the duel left tha country a man whom ltcouhl easily hmo spared, and. he added, "havingnoticed this fact, as a patriotic citizen, how couldI engage In s duel?" This ls as near as 1 r.e.ill it.

I met Mr. Horr quite a number ot times, andi.e! tbe pleasure, with Mrs. .Manon, of entertaining.;T-i twice at our home. Through personal ac¬quaintance and speeches which j had heard andread, and In hla letters to The Tribune, I becamemore than attached to him.Ho lectured here In November, is**?, and the same

evening .Maje:- McKinley spoke before the HomoMarket Club. o'. Host on. 1 handed lum the paperneal morning, and. as he looked at the accountol Major McKinley'-, speech, he said: "A few weeksego. Mr, McKinley told me that be Intended to sayin hl:i address before this club thal there wasnol a state In the inion when-, if s fair discus¬sion could be held and ar. honest ballot taken, wecould nol set a victory for protection." Mr. Horrhad ass ired Mr. McKinley that he questioned tbe nc-curacj ot the statement ns to Texas. K.-ntuckvand Arkansas, and so Mr. Horr was Interested ioknow what Mr. McKinley had said in his speech.He waa pleased to note that the Impression read:"There ls scarcely a .State in tho I'nlon."rhe Nation has lost a great men and a good man.and the combination is somewhat rare.

A VANQUISHED AND DECLINING CREED.I.K'.KY'S COMMENT! ON" THE DY1XC1 OCT OF PREg

TKAI>E IN* MODEM CIVILIZATION.To tho Editor of The Tribune.

Bli: Apropos of your editorial Item a day or twosince In regard to tho disastrous fall tn the valuesof farming land In England, the following extractfrom W. E. H. Lecky's lately published "Democ¬racy ani Liberty" may have an Interest for someof your readers:No fact ls moro conspicuous In the nineteenth

century than the strength of tho reaction that haslaaen place against the free trade principleswl.i-h. within the m-mory of nun still livinK. werea most completely dominant in the more advancedeconomical roaching of the world, and whichseemed likely in a few years to control all timmore civilised slslatures Whether we look tothe despotic monarchies or to the democratic re¬publics, whether w>- consider the crowded popula¬tions ol Europe or Ihe thinly scattered Inhabitantsot Australia or New-Zealand, the sam- lesson maybe learned. Nearly everywhere the old free tradedoctrine is a vanquished ur a declining creed, and".hie* disputes relate to the forms whl h pro¬tection should t ike, to ihe degrees to which it mayl>.- wisely carried. .

Even in England, "li ls beginning to be said"that "a system under which the greatest and mos-.Important ot all national Industries (agriculture)is almost hopelessly paralysed, under which lanais fast I Nins out >>f cultivation, and the agricultu¬ral populatli -i flocking more and mun. to the con¬gested towna, cannot be really -food for Om nation,lt i~ more and mote repeat, d that the pr.-at rushof prosp. rlty that undoubtedly followed the repeal ofthe i'..rr, lawa was largely due to the sircant lc soldtllai overles, whl rh kepi up pn. es, while they stlmu-lat. il ent. rprlse; that the predictions of agriculturalruin ma.I.- by the ..ld protectionists, which wereonce laughed to scorn, are fasi becoming true.What may be the final issue of this momentouscontroversy, on which tho civilized world la so

To the Miter of The Tribune.sir: Mayor Strong, in bia masoags to thc Hoard of

--lurid- of tho city and for thc payment of theP ib lc debi as li may mature.Tba Mayor bare endeavors ta show thal the increase

in tbe municipal bonded debi i- a srlaa investment,because tbe expenditure ls for public improvements,which c.msc an Increase in real estate values andconsequent Increased assessable values, from whichthe taxes collected will pay curreni municipal ex-[.ensea nnd produce a fund which ultimately willliquidate the nonda

'i h. fa. ta Jo not justify the Mayor la such conclu-i on. Public Improvements are desirable for thcpublic convenience; this is sufficient reason forma kine them. The expense, however, is not met outnf an In r.-ase In taxable values due to these publicimprovements, but .,, p barge and burden on house.en ners and tenants.

'i'o the Editor -¦; The TrllBl I respectfully esk you io correct some in¬

accuracies which appear.-d In \oiir report of what

occurred before the Cities Committee of ths ls-aembly <>n Tuesday, the Mth, In Albany, entitled".'ity Measures Opposed." I did nol know thatMr. Leonard's or Mr. Finn's bill was to ba dla-cussed on thal dav by th- Cities Committee, i

was before them with s delegation to urge them

to report favorably on the lilli for the erection ofii inw Hall of I'.-cords. As I was about to leavethe room, having a copy of Mr. Finn's bill In myi ind, it occurred io me to a*-k Mr. Austin, thechairman of the committee, if there would he a

beering on the bill that day. He told nie there

would. At that moment he culled up Mr. Leonsrd'Sbill, which, in my opinion, from the casual stancewhich I took at it, waa even more vicious than

Mr. Pion's bill, aa, from ths explanation of Mr.I.- .I.ini, it save truckmen the privilege of erect¬ing offices within ihe stoop-line, without the eon-

sent of tba owners or occupants of the adjoiningproperty.Just Imagine de position s merchant renting a
