DTSTRUST TOO STRONG FOR DIPLOMACY.
THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT BoAsTPUL-A GREAT
PEACE MEMORIAL SENT TO QUEEN VICTORIA
Further parleymg is in progress between
Russia and England, but it is not expected that
any definite result will be attained for
five or six days yet. 1t is stated that the
Russian grip on Turkey is insecure,
the Turks having partly recovered from the
disorder which attended the Russian in
vasion of ROumelia. General Ignatieff is
to be made Minister without portfolio.
In England, the military and naval author
tiles continue active. Some battaliOns of the
Guards are ready to embark, and rations
of preserved provisions are being dis
tributed in camp, to accustOm the soldiers to
the food they would have to use were they
sent abroad on active service. Mr.. Cross, o
leading member of the British Government,
maintains that its policy is popular, and
that it would gain votes by a general cleo
ton. A great peace memorial has been pre-
sented to Queen Victoria.-The latest report
from st. Petersburg indicates that the pros
poets of peaceable settlement are still
clOuded.

IMPEACHMENT TALKED OF.

PROCTOR KNOTT STUDYING now To GET THE FLOR
IDA MATTER OUg OF THE CoMMITTEE-RooM
AND INTO THE HOUSE.
iBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.I
. WASHINGTON, Nav 3.-The Democrats who have
charge of the proposed investigation of the Electoral
coiat in Florida perfecting their arrangements
for bringing the subject before the House. Numer
GUS aidavits have been received from Florida which
said to substantlate the assertions made by Nc
Lin and Dennis in their socallcd confessions, and
which will be included as part of the case. All
these papers are now in the possession of Mr.. j.
Proctor Knott, Chairman of the House Committee
of the Judiciary and it has been concluded not TO
give any of them ont for investigation at present.
Two methods suggested by which to bring
this subject to the attention of the House. One is
by introducing a resolution, the preamble of which
shall recite the alleged facts shown by the McLin
aud Dennis statements, and give to the Committee
on the Judiciary power TO send for persons and pa
pers, aud direct it TO make thorough examination
and report to the House. Such resolution as this
could only bc received under suspension of the
rulcs, which would require vote of twO-thirds OF
the House. There is no probability that it would
command this vote.
The other plan is to set forth in a resolution that
the President was cognizant Of the facts alleged,
and that hc Is therefore guilty of high crimes and
mIsdemeanors, for which he should be Impcachcd.
All proceedings relating TO the impeachment of Off
GERS of the Government are questions of privilege,
and it is believed that the Speaker would rule that
such measure as this could be passed by majority
of the House. Even if this plan should be adopted,
there still doubt with regard to the ability of the
movers of the scheme TO carry it through Between
forty and fifty Democrats, including many Of the
most influential members OF the House are nnaltcr;
ably opposed to any rcop"ning of the Presidential
question, and n majority of the Republicans are
probably in sympathy with them. A minority of the
Republicans. comprising two classes first very
few men, who desire 10 bring disgrace upon the Ad-
mlnstraton, and secondly, those who be lieve that
the Democrats will be more injured by an inyestiga-
ton than tine Repubhcaus-may possibly vote Tor
such a resolution but it seems hardly probable
even then that it would secure enough votes to III
sure its passage,

lBY TELEGRAPH TRIBUNE.
WAsHINGTON, May 3.-The House Committee on
Rules agreed to-day TO report an amendment TO Rule
No. 112. This amendment provides that all
bills originating in the Senate which appropriate
money land or property of the United States, shall
first be considered in Committee of the Whole on
the state of the Union or in Committee OF tho
Whole; and that all Senate amendments 70 House
bills not german TO the subject matter and appro-
pratinG money, land or property, shall also have
first consideration in Committee of the Whole on the
State of the Union or in Committee of the Whole.
The object of this amendment was understood to
he 10 place new obstacle in the way of the consid-
Grafton of railroad and land bulls which may posi-
bly, be passed 10y the Senate and be sent To the
House. Under the rules as they now stand all bills
originating in tho House which appropriate money,
land or property of the United States have first TO
he considered in the Committee Of the Whole on the
State Of the Union, If they are public bills, and in
the Committee Of the Whole If they are private
in their nature. This rule has always
been held not TO apply 20 bills Origina-
ting in the Senate which go to the Speakers
table ON their reception from that body. When
the House proceeds 10 the consideration Of business
on the Speakers table bills of this character, well
rs all others are taken up in their order and may he
at once considered and passed by majority of the
House without reference to the committees of the
Uousc or 10 Committee of the Whole. II the amend
ment agreed TO by the Committee on Rules tins
morning is adopted single objection will carry all
such amendments 20 the Committee Of the Whole,
where thew will have to take their places at the foot
of the calendar only to bc reached after all bills
standing before them have been dispo.Cd of.
IT, foI instance, the Texas and Pacific bill should
be passcd by the Senate and sent 10 the llodsc, a.
the rules now stand il might be taken up and
passed by majority the first time the House pro-
cceds to the consideration Of business the Speak
er'r table II the proposed amendment Is agreed 10,
a single objection would carry II 10 the calendar,
where there would be little probability Of IFS being
reached during the present Congress. aud where, If
reached 1t would DC open 10 debate ald amend
ment.
