LONDON, Aug. 2N.-1he eapitulation Of the
Lords over the Land bill exhibited the weak
ness and divisions of the Conservative lea.l-
ers The tieniaIs of Mr.. Gladstone and Lord
Salisbury that matters had been squared
were strictly correct, but undoubtedly
an Informal exchange of views pre-
pared the way for the surrender
Of the Upper House. Lord Cairns anu Sfr.
Gibson were the lleEotiators for the Con-
servatves. Lord Carllngford and Mr.. Her
sct,ell acted for the Government Thu inter
fere:lcc of Lord Cairns has been 4 blow to
Lord Sallsbury's leadership. Mr.. Glad
stone and Lord Salisbury we're in
llle country on Sunday. On Monday

The Irish landlords lal resolved to co:npro-
misc. Lord Salisbury and the active Tories
ure chagril.ed. The latter affirm that the de-
lection of Lord Cairns was the sole cause of
defeat
cuE QUEEN Is SAID TO HAVE SECURED THE
ARRANGEMENT
By intimatlng to Lord Salisbury her refusal
to appeal to the country on question ILL
volvlng the House of Lords. There was
absolutely no course open to Lord Salisbury
but to capitulate. Ills cond uct throughout
betrnys simple obstinacy. Disraell, It
alive, might have repeated his II: tac-
ties, defeated the Government bill, mnf,
taking office. have ''slished the Whigs' by
adopting peasant proprietary pure and simple.
Such a step, if approved by the Tories,
.},,,. rad. 1tt1inritt the
House Of Commons. The present Tory
leaders want the dash for such enterprise.
As passed, the bill is substantially the same
as when it left the House Ut Commons. Of
Twelve leadin. points OH Which the Peers i'll
sisted, they surrendered ten, compromised
one and the Government conceded one. The
parnclites seem to be
LEFT WITHOUT a PARLIAMENTARY POLICY.
1t was their intention to 20 to the country
with eclat by creating Il disturbance III tic
House before adjournment In view Of the
Ministerial declarations relative to the
.eform in procedure of the House, such
al act would have irresistibly strength
.ned the Government case next session.
The majority Of the English press approve
the Government resolution not TO release
the s'suspects" until the agitators have
made it possible to do so. The notorious
fact that Il number of the agltators live by
agitation has convinced the Government that
it could not conciiate them by cleInency
10 long as the money lasted. tAt the same
time, there is a strong feeling among the Lib-
erals that the time for repression is past, and
That the Government would have done well
to accompany the Land bill with
amnesty. 1t is suspected that the
Lcaguers will not facilitate the working
Of the act. Archbishop Croke's counsel
TO give the Land act II fair trial, while lnasl-
aiming All attitude of observation, is consld-
:red reasonable, but is not likely to be ac-
:epred By the Leagucrs.
THE BRITISH GOVERNMENTS refusal
10 renew negotiations for commercial
treaty has created CONSERVATION III France.
The theory of II. Tirard aud other French Pro-
tectionists was that England would be glad
to accept any terms, and was only spinning
out tile negotiations to secure better condl-
lions. ~ St 1iaire also insisted that En-
gland could.bc forced into corner aud must
submit He was mistaken, and has had
to publish a note BY the llaras
News Agency designed to justify VI.
Tirard on the eve Of the election. The plea
of illcgality advanced by the French Coy
eminent to justify its refusal to accord
proloneation OF the treaty is considered here
70 be 4 mere subterfuge- France evidently
Is entirely mistaken regarding Englald's po-
sition.
ENGLAND Is NOT H1GGL1NG FOR TERMS.
She is determined to have good terlls' as
good as the last or none. An economic rl'p-
s1lre would be inconyenient, but England

The failure to negotiate treaty would DC

Negotiations have been begun by the En-
Elish Foreign Office for Il closer commercial
union with Italy, Spain, and Portugal. Earl

all parties without exception.
