He takes an interest in current events. Parliament adjourned till the 14th. Lords Ripon and Lansdowne, and Messrs Asquith, Balfour, and Redmond, paid warm tributes to Sir Henry CampbellBannerman's character and services. His retirement evoked many public expressions of sympathy v including a unanimous resolution by the Central Committee of- the Manchester Conservative Association 1 expressive of profound regret that Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman's health necessitated his resignation and the earnest hope that he would long be spared to enjoy in retirement the respect and esteem in which he is held by all political parties.
