London, Sept. 18. The first of four volumes of a biography of Mr. Lloyd George, the charge for each of which is nine shillings, is published from material largely supplied by his brother in the shape of letters and a diary. The latter shows that in his youth Mr. Lloyd George was most ambitious. An extract says that at the age of eighteen, in recording to Westminster, he wrote I eyed the assembly in a spirit similar to that of William the Conqueror when he eyed England on his visit to Edward the Confessor—as the region of a future domain." The letters contain piquant comments on Mr. Chamberlain, Mr. Balfour and Mr. Asquith.
