LONDON, July 16.--In the House
/ of Commons, tonight, the consldera-
ton of the Irish Church bill was con-
tinued.
| Gladstone approved the amendment
| granting half a million pounds for
| private endQwments made prior to
/ 1916, but moved to disagree to the
provision for the continuation Of the
! Ulster grants.
Disraeli thought the proposal Of
the Lords reasonable. ....---
Stafford Nerthcate thought Glad
stones proposal would convert the
established Church into a voluntary
missionary Church. He asked, as an
act of justice and expedicncy; that
the globes should be left.
RaundelI Palmer supported the
/ Lords amendment.
1 The amendment granting half a
million pounds for private ondow-
| ments was agreed to.
The amendment containing the
| Ulster grants wits rejected = 315 to
| 240 The announcement was cheCred
from the Minis terial benches.
| Disraeli intimated chat it was net
necessary for the. House to dNide On
any other amendment, except that
postpOniBg the disposition Of the sur
I plus funds.
Gladstone moved to disagree, and
Disr2el supported the lords amend
mont. He thouRht the Government
plans not matured, and ought to be
left for future consideration.
Bright said the distribution of the
surplus was a difliculb matter. The
Government had made minute inquiry
as to- suitable distinction OF the in
come arising from the surplus. He
had no interest other than any mem
Der Of the House on. the contrary to.
the wishes of the Irish people. Every
one acknowledged that the money
was the property Of the Irish, and
ought to be applied to the benefit of
Ireland. This plan was open to test
an objection. TO leave the question
open would only pave the way for
future embarrassment. lie appealed
to the House tiot to put any obstacle
in the way to the passage OF the bill.
The country had confded with the
fullest sincerity IN the Governments
desire to make Ireland an integral
part of the kingdom In her cOnnec--
ton with England.
The closer amendment of the lords
was then rejected by 300 against 219.
Great cheers greeted the result.
The debate on the amendment to
the Irish Church Bill was continued
10 the House of Commons till late
hour this morning.
After the rejection of the amend,
ment proposed by the Peers Mr.. Dis
raeli took the floor, and spoke at
some length, Hesregretted the repu-
diation OF the amendment adopted IN
the House Of Lords. The Church
was not the question at issue at the
late election. He thought the agree
ment of the Lords to seud the bill a
second time was an aCt of megnanIm
ity, considering that the majority were
untavOrable to the measure. and the
.agreement was only given with the
understanding that the House of
Commons would consider the amend
ment In a cOneiliatoTy spirit. He
could nOtunderstaud how the course
the Government had taken could be
.reeoneiied to the expectations held
out to the House of Lords.
Mr.. Gladstone replied, saying that
| the promise given to the House Of
! Lords was that an amendment which
couldbe approved would be respect
| fully considered, and he maintained
that the pledge had net been violated.
He had conceded much in Difference
TO the Lords, and had fulliIled-more
than sfulflledLthe pledge which lie
had sgivenJ l6treat cheering He
was certain lthatif any harm had been
done t0sshe Church, it was by those
who described the grievOus and ener
waiting effect disesta blishment would
have on the religious community.
The Church was destitute OF energy
and VigOr. The sooner they quieted
1T the better. He must file n solemn
protest against the degrading, dis
| heartening convic6ons, aud express
humble, confident expectation
Though time and uil intervene, that
| the members of theGhurch will regard
the day of the passage OF this act as
the day Of their religious regenera-
Right Hon. Gathrone Hardy then
ktook the foor.- - He accepted the ap-
peal made to posteriCy, In regard to
| The beneficial effects OF the bill, and
supported Mr.. Disraeli's statement,
that John Bright had used threats Of
4 the dissolution of. Parliament to keep
the party together, and to cOerce the
House OF Lords. lie considered the
Lords as a co ordinate authority, and
thought they had been treated IN an
unworthy manner
Mr.. Bright said he had used no
threats OF dissolution, his only refer
bence to the subject was what might be

which the great majority OF the House
