BRITISH POLITICS.
STATEMENT BY MR HALDANE. Received September 18, 8.44 a.m. LONDON, September 17. Mr R. B. Haldane, Secretary of State for War, expressed the opinion that the Unionists would pall them • selves together early enough to prevent the Liberals remaining in offioe a deoade. Any Government had been long enough in office after five years. Under Sir Edward Grey, Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Britain's relations abroad had improved. Those with .Kranoe were closer, and he had brought England into friendly relations with Russia, nowitbstanding the latter's difficulties. More over, the relations gwith Germany were better than they were a short time ago, and beginning from next montb, Germauy would commence to withdraw nearly half of her troops from Snath-west Africa. The Liberals, he added, had sought to meet the legitimate Labour grievances.
