RENEWAL OF NEGOTIATIONS De THE BRIT
1sH GoVEKSNEST.
Special Dspatck to The CHICAGO Tribune.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 27.-Further In
Quiry develops the fact that the renewal OF
diplomatic negotiations concerning the fish
cries qeusti0n was begun by Lord Granville
In behalf Of Great Britain soon after the
adjournment OF Congress. It Is supposed
thai the English Government was alarmed
by the movement in this country to restore
the duty on fish and fsn-oils, and took the
rstopportunity to prevent such legislation.
As already stated in these dispatches, Gran
vile takes the ground that the rights Of
American fishermen obtained under treaty
cannot be destroyed or abridged by colo
NAL legislation enacted either prior Or subse-
Qucnt to the ratification OF tile treaty. This
IS directly opposed to the doctrine OF Lord
Salisbury, Of Beaconsfeld's Administration.
who held that legislation enacted before the
treaty must control the provisions OF the
treaty. Load Granville also tmpliedly ad-
nllts Britaiu's liability for the Fortune Bay
and similar outrages by proposing Com
mission to adjudicate upon them. A num-
ber Of new attacks have been made By pro-
vlncfal fishermen upon our fishing boats, and
the question OF damages is becoming more
and more important

MINISTERIAL CRISIS.
ROME, Nov. H.-Not only is there talk OF
q coalition between the Right and the ex-
IRENE Lett for the overthrow OF the Ministry,
but the possibility OF q coalition OF these
parties for the construction OF new Ministry
is seriously discussed.
IN THE DEPUTIES.
RoAE, Nov. 27.-Tle Chamber OF Deputies
to-day continued the discussion Of the Cab
inet's policy. Some Deputies proposed to
adjourn the debate month, but Carroll, the
Premier, insisted that the motions which had
been presented be discussed Immediately, so
as to remove any ambiguity relative to the
position OF the Government This course
was agreed to. Romano regretted that the
Chamber had entered upon the debate, be-
cause its sole object WAS the overthrow OF
the Cabinet by coalition vote.
The debate was adjourned until Sunday.
