Monster Land LeRgue Con.
VentfOn.

Dublin, AT the me. ting Of Ia
Land esRue, to-day, Mr.. Davitt
brought forward an imposing plan for
Convention Of delegates from every
branch Of the league in ireland. he
sketched the details Of the plan, which
were that each branch Of 500 members
should Sc d one delegate, and branches
OF over that number two. This conven-
ton. he said, would be called to show
Mr.. Forster and England that the local
leaders OF the organization throughout
Ireland Were neither rufians, black
guards nor scoundrels, and to show Mr.
Outrage Forster, the chief Elanderer of
Ireland, that the coercion bill would not
strike terror in the ranks Of the Land
League; to make q national pronounce
meHt against coercion, as well as against
real and manufactured outFages,
and 10 make known in an en-
phatic manner the national de-
nAnds regarding tbs land question.
IL was not necessary for The branches to
wait for the passing Of the bill. They
should proceed TO elect delegates at once
Gnd send them up to Dublin, the moment
the bill becomes Law. There can be
but little doubt that the government
will stop this convention either before
the delegates come to Dublin O. immedi-
ately after their arrival there. Ii was
stated at the meeting that Father Lynch,
of Massachusetts,, had bought an estate
in County CavAD, which the tenants
would be willing TO purchase. Mr..
Davitt said that they should ask the
branch Of the league in Massaceusetts to
request this gentleman to undo the In
jury, perhaps Internationally done by
him, 10 the tenants in purchasing this
property. The Land League issued q
circular TO the branches tonight calling
on them to elect delegates. Secretary
Brennan says there are between 800 and
900 branches which will return about
1900 delegates to Dublin.

Parliament.

London, 8, 6 pm.-The House OF
Commons was crowded. Vernon Har-
court, home secretary, replying 10 Par
nell, said DavItt was arrested because his
action was considered incompatible with
his ticket-of leave. Parnell asked what
conditions Davitt had violated. There
was no answer 10 the question. Irish
mem bers shouted SHAME" and other
members cheered tremendously. The
scene surpassed description. The Speaker
called upon Gladstone to move his reso-
luton. John Dillon rose, but the Speaker
refused to hear him. After repeated
warnings the Speaker named Dillon, and
Gladstone moved his suspension amidst
enthusiastic cheers and cries of "ordsr, I"
Irish members shouting "skame." The
motion for suspension was sdopted-395
to SO. Dillon refused to withdraw, and
was torcibly removed By the sergeant-st-
arms, by order of the Speaker, amidst
cries OF shame of Irish mem bers.
Mr.. Gladstone, replying to Cowen
(rsdical), said it was due to the House
aud to The Speaker that his lGlsdstone's
action of Yesterday should be discussed
as early as possible, but that the House
cannot give the melton on the subject

liysn protested against Diil0n,s foreible
removal as an act Of violence and lille
gality. The Speaker pointed out that
Dillon bad de6ed the chair. Gladstone
rose to address the house. O'Donahue
rose to move an adjournment. The
Speaker ruled Gls1stone in possession Of
the House. Parnell moved that Glad
stone be no longer heard. The Speaker
declared PArnell was defyiDg the chair
man. Upon his persisting, he declared be

him. - Parnell's suspension was then
moved, but upon an order that the
house be cleared for division, all the
home-rulers refused TO leave the House.
The motion to suspend ParneH was ulti-
mstely voted, 405 TO Z, home-rulers moi

pended excessively.
