Mr.. Coke said he would vote for the bill

the understanding that he proceed with his
remarks tomorrow, and the senate ad-
journed.
The following bills were introduced and
referred:

that the fleet should have no other business
before Constantinople, except that declared
in Lord Derby's statement Of Friday. The
Pail Mall Gazette considered this about as
perilous and humiliating position as was
possible. 1t declared it to be the imperative
duty of the ministry to redeem the country
from his position at any cost, and demanded
such reconstruction of the cabinet as would
leave no doubt that it, like the country, ia
of one mind.
The Times Vienna dispatch says on the
subject: "What looked yesterday merely
probable, seems to-day pretty certain
namely, the entry of the British fleet into
the Dardanelles. 1t has become the subject
of negotiations ostensibly between the Brit
ish government and the porte, but in reality
through the porte between England and
Russia"
The Times in its leading editorial article
says: However desirable the compromise
may be it can only be based OH the re-estab'
lishment of some degree of mutual conf.
dence, and it is necessary to obs serve that i,
still depends upon Russia to take the 6rst
steps requisite for this purpose"
