VIOLENT SPEECHES IN THE CAPE ASSEMBLY.
LORD MILNER ATTACKED. Received September 12, 10.40 p.m. CAPETOWN, September 12. The Chief Justice of the Cape declares that the Imperial Commission into Martial Law is ampljy sufficient to conduct the inquiry. Merriman's speech was unusually violent. He condemned the damnable doctrine that the Imperial Parliament was able to suspend the Constitution. Only force of arms would secure the suspension. He charged Lord IMilner with conspiring to destroy the liberties of the Cape. Smartt replied that the progressives wo'nd loyally abide by Mr Chamberlain's ruling. He censured the malignant attack on Lord Milner.
