ROSEBERY’S SPEECH.
HIS DECLARATION. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright London, Feb. 15. Lord Rosebery, at an enthusiastic meeting of four thousand people at Liverpool, regretted the refusal of safe conduct to Boer delegates, who, he said, ought to have gone on condition that they advocated peace. It would, he said, be madness to entrust Ireland’s destines to men who earnestly wished to see Great Britain overthrown on the battlefield and an independent parliament at Dublin. As regards the treaty with Japan he advised caution, judging that there would be farreaching consequences from the new departure. A first treaty of the kind would not be the last.
