SPEECH BY SIR E. GREY. EGYPTIAN QUESTION NOT YET SETTLED. MR. ASQUITH'S VIEWS. HORIZON DARK AND MENACING. AMERICA AS A COLONISING POWER. By Telegraph.-Press Association-Copyright.
Loxdon, November 14. Sir Edward Grey, Parliamentary Secretary to the Foreign Office, in the late Liberal Administration, speaking at Asliington, said the withdrawal of the French from Fashoda had only settled one acute point of the Egyptian question. Mr. Asquith, in tho course of an address, said the horizon everywhere was dark and menacing. America's advent as a colonising and Imperial power was a good omen for the future, as that country was certain to become a great Power in the Far East where her interests were identical with those of Great Britain. Mr. Ritchie, President of the Board or Trade, speaking at Winton said Great Brtain was not yet out of the wood.
