MONTGOMERY, March l5.-During the
progress of the debate in the house Of
representatives, L. E. Parsons, who was
speaker OF the courtroom house, said
that the two million bond bill passed

had never received the constitutional
vote. Mr.. Hunter, another member of that

that had no quorum present, and that the
Senate was not in session when it pretend
ed to have passed that measure. The
legislature has been in session four months
with no prospect of adjournment before
April.

LONDON. March l5.-The report that
D'Israeli refused the premiership is untrue.
He simply represented the difficulties he
would have to confront. Lord Derby has
arrived from Paris, and has had long con-
ference with D'Israeli. It is probable
D'Israeli will accept the Office, finish the
business of the session by June, and then
dissolve Parliament. The Conservatives
all over the country are confident of the
result of the election.
The Economist says it is rumored
that Earl Derby yields to the request of
the Conservatives to undertake the forma-
ton of cabinet. The Spectator gives
currency to the same report, but says
Earl Derby is determined to appeal to the
country.
