III A remarkable scene occurred in the Honse
of Commons tonight, when Sir Charles w.
Dike's resolve to Investigate the expenses OF
theE crown came up. 4
The speaker called on Sir Charles for an
Introduction Of the motion Of which he had
already given notice.
Viscount Bury rose to question Of priyi-
lege, as the members OF Parliament had taken
tie oath Of allegiance to Queen Victoria and
her successors. and as the member from
Chelsea had avoWed openly that he was a
/ Republican, he wanted to know it, with
proper respect for the honor OF Commons,
the member could be allowed to proceed
| without repudiating se
| Here Lord Bury was interrupted by cheers
and shouts, and there was much confusion
on all sides.
The Speaker, as soon as the house was
brought to order. said he sa nothing incon-
ststent with the dignity of the House in al
lowing the member from Chelsea to proceed
1t was no part of his tie Speakers duty to
1 interfere.
Sir Charles then rose to put his motion,
amid storn of groans and cheers. in a
| firm and moderate tone OF voice he called at
tention to the civil lis', and then moved for
the returns showing II ednties of the Auditor.
| to whom l,e makes his reports, copies OF such
reports for each year since the accession OF
| Victoria, warrants issued by the Treasury
with specifications of the classes in which
| savings arose, and to which accounts those
savings were transferred each year also the
returns showing the income and expenditures
of the Crown from the Queens accession to
the present year. the amounts charged in es-
Inmates for fees on installations. for robes,
collars, badges, royal presents, the convey
| ance Of, distinguished personages. funerals OF
the royal family. expenses of the coronation,
journeys of the queen. building and repair
| ing palaces, court ceremonies, allowance to
trumpetcrs, Waterman. Marshals aud Cham
berlains, and for the service of the royal
yachts for ten years, and finally the returns
Of income from the Duchies Of Lancaster
and Cornwall, AID Of the total amount paid
ito the Prince of Wales. .
/ SihsCharles having succeeded IN reading
shis ton to the end, though frequently in
terrupted, proceeded to support 1t in set
! speech. Derisive laughter was heard in all
parts of the house, in the galleries as well as
ON the floor, during its delivery, and the con-
fusion wasyat times so great that the voice of
| the speaker was inaudible. He opened by
| saying that possibly the motion which ha
offered was unprecedented, it was time. there
| fore that precedent should be established.
| He would discuss the subject of allegiance
some other day. lie denounced sineeures
and useless offices like that Of Governor of
Windsor Castle, and wanted to know on what
principle OF right Prince Teck and Prince
Arthur were allowed to occupy lodges in the
public parks. There was once some justifi-
cation for spending money for royal yachts.
for his late majesty, Wi liam ~, was .
sailor-king; now, we maintained four vessels
of This description, and for what reason.
The abandonment of the Anticipated palace
Of Sc. James was recommended years ago.
yet thousands were spent therein annually.
He admitted that he had made charge that
the Queen paid no income tax. This he had
since learned was not true. and he therefore
retracted the charge aud acknowledged he
had been misinformed. He concluded by as
serting that the civil list showed an increase
OF s10o, goo. and that he believed that large
portion of the EfoneV was wasted.ss.+ u
Auberon Herbert. member for Nottingham,
seconded the motion. I'll s4.t.; af.s

tumultuous. Gladstone rose,s when order
| was resumed, and the members became at
tentive. " m ~ - 4
Gladstone eontradicted positively the state
ment that the civil list had increased, and
correcte. Sir Charles sharply on other points.
1 One who assumed to instruct the public, he
said. must at least be accurate. He de-
nonnced as mischieyous the speech made by
the member at Newcastle, and limited that
the success Of his motion would be equal o
| the success OF that speech. in conclusion.
GIaastone urged the House on every ground

.sAuberon Herbert endeavored to speak. but
his voice was drowned with groans and cries
to ''divide.'' So
The Speaker insisted on the pre- servation
OF order, wher all the conservatives and
many liberals left the chamber. >
Herbert attempted to continue his speech.
He declared ne preferred a republic over 4
haonarchy.
Here the interruption commenced again.
Three attempts were made to count out the
House.
