London, March 6.
The newspapers demand drastic punishment of the Nationalists \who created the scene in the House of Commons for gross and inexcusable insult to the House. The disturbance was brought about by the refusal of the Nationalists to divide when a division was called for in the House of Commons. They based their action on the contention that the closure was intended to facilitate a vote on account for seventeen millions without the discussion of Irish questions. The Emperor of China has annulled all the Imperial edicts and reports issued between June 20th and August 14th. The Hay-Paunceforte treaty, in regard to the Nicaraguan Canal, has lapsed. The battleships Albemerlo and Montague, and the first-class cruiser Drake, have been launched. The Rev. Dr. Samuel Thornton, late Anglican Bishop of Ballarat, has accepted the living as Hector of Blackburn, Lancashire
Berlin, March 6. Count Bulow, in reply to questions about the Kaiser’s visit to England, said, “We will live in peace with England, but practical politics are dependent upon reciprocity. Foreign politics will not be affected by dynastic considerations or ties of relationship.” Germany asks China for an indemnity of eleven million pounds.
