night of the last amendment of the house of
lords to the land bill, striking out the pro
vision for the staying of proceeding sfor debt.
Gladstone, adverting to remarks made early in
the evening that farce was beng played, as
serted that the opposition leaders were not
aware when the sitting Of the house conl-
nenced of the course The government intend
ed to take in regard to single amendments
Parnell, who said he thought the conduct ol
| the government all through contemplate
| characterized Gladstone's statement as scare
| ly creditable, for which he was called to order
I. P. O'Connor; home ruler, denounced the
government for its surrender. O'Donuell,
home ruler, having said he noticed liberals
were green with terror at the prospect Of
| dissolution, redicated the idea OF crisis
| Heal, home ruler, said he agreed that there

TENANT RIGHT OF HOLDING.
I The amendment of the house of lords a;;-
thorizing the lard court, if they saw fit 10
award to the landlord VINO had bought up a
tenant right of holding, compensation out Of
price when the holding changed hands, which
amendment Gladstone was reported YESTERDAY
as having assented to, is the same as the lords
amendment in regard to the ulster tenant
right custom, and was rejected on Gladstone's
motion. The reporters of the house blundered
Gladstone's statement in the first instance.
THE PEERS ACCEPT.
At meeting of the peers early this morn
ing, il was decided to accept the disagreements
of the commons with the lords amendments
to the land bill, subject to q Slight alteration
in the seventh clause. The peers will, how
ever, formally record their protest against the
bill, as unjust to landlords.
In the house of lords this evening Lord
Salisbury made statement to the effect that,
although the opposition retained its objection
to the land bill, and particularly regarding
its provisions affecting lease holders, although
they would have felt bound to support Lord
Lansdown, if he had persisted in maintaining
his amendment on that point, they would not
take any action which would send The bill
back to the commons, which had removed the
dangerous eXcrescences of the bill. He eX-
pressed the hope that the bill would lie Of
great benefit to tenants and not much harm
to landlords. Lord Lansdown declined to
press his amendments. The lords then agreed
Lord Salisbury gave confirmation 10 the
statement of Gladstone that there had been 70
arrangement between the two sides. The
commons was responsible for the effects Of
the measure. The final proceedings OF the
lords consisted principally of mutual csngrat-
ulations on the satisfactory ending of the diff
feulty..
