In the House of Lords this evening the
Earl of Derby, in accordance with notice
given Tuesday night, proposed the ques-
| ton as to the course the government in
! tended to pursue in regard to the treaty of
| Washington. He hoped the Minister of
| Foreign Affairs would be able to state that
| the government was prepared to maintain
the ground taken at the beg inning of the
present session. and decline to admit the
| claims for indirect damages made by the
| thn
| conference. All knew the public anxiety
| was great: it was an anomalous state
| of things, that while all the newspapers
of the country were discussing this Gues-
! ton Parliament should forbear from debat-
ing. He warned the government that the
doctrines that they had already sacrificed
much for peace, and had better give more
than fail, was dangerous. He asked, fur
tier, if Great Britain would appear before
| the Geneva board under those circum-
! stances =
| Earl Granville ?. plied that Mr.. Gladstone
and himself had riready given answers to
| the questions, to which nothing could be
added at present: complete publicity at this
| juncture was impossible.
| The Earl of Malmesburv objected to the
| continued silence of Parliament. If the
treaty of Washington had been discussed
last year, the present difficulties would have
been avoided.
| Lord Westberry spoke in condemnation
of the conduct of the American government.
1t had been distinctly promised that indi-
| rect damages would not be pressed, and 1t
would be contrary to England's honor to
admit them after such mutual under
standing.
Lord Granville intimated that the treaty
| had been misconstrued.

postponed until to-day.
Mcnseigneur Dupanloupe, Bishop OF Or
| leans, rose to open the discussion, but
| yielded the tribune to President liners,
| who proceeded to address the Chamoer.
His speech was plea for further postpone,
ment of the debate. He deprecated
