Washington, Feb. AIN the house
committee on ways and means, Car
Isle, from the sub committee. reported,
favoring the abolishing of the tax on
matches, bank deposits, checks, patent

Accounts of Recent Battles in the
Gillian War.

London, Feb. Am the house of
commons to-day the speaker, on taking
the chair, read statement that he
would use the authority entrusted to
him with circumspection, so as to en-
sure freedom of debate; and that he
would shortly lay rules before the house,
In the meanwhile he will make rule,
the practical effect of which will be to
prevent a member who is dissatisfied
with the answer to the question, from
moving an adjournment of the house.
Forster arose at 5p. N. amid cheers
to move a second readiug of the prohi-
bition bill.
Bradlaugh moved a rejection of the
bill, because, he said, there is no GER
tainty that the house will approve the
land bill as readily as they will the CO.
ercion bill.
Forster, in making his statement in
moving a second reading of the protec-
tion bill, laid stress upon the Importance
of the retrospective provision measure.
Relative to the lists of arrests to be
presented~to parliament monthly, he
said it was not intended that the sane
tion of parliament was necessary fol
any particular arrest. Later informa
tion, he said, made the case in favor
of the bill much stronger. The home
rule members thus far to-day have beer
remarkably quiet. They held confer
ence to-day and another manifesto will
go forth tonight. There was some
split at the conference, but it is now
believed to be healed.
The only English members of the
house of commons who voted against
Dillon's suspension were Cowan, radi.
cal and hometuler, and Labouchere
advanced liberal. They also voted
against Parnell's suspension, but mo-
against Finnigan's.

California; Land Claims.

Washington, Feb. 4.-Senator Davis
of Illinois. from the private land claims
committee, to-day reported adversely
on Booths bill to authorize the claim
ants of the "Union firmed half rancho
Las Virgines," containing four square
leagues in Los Angeles county, to sum-
NIT their claims to the United States
district court for adjudication.
The committeein their report say: 1t
seems from examination that the grant
made in 1884 by Gov. Figure had been
abandoned, but be this as it may, it is
very clear that congress ought not, after
lapse Of time, to send the case to the
courts without good excuse being
furnished for the great laxity on the
part of the claimants, who, the commit
tee find, have furnished no evidence
to show why the case was not presented
to the board of land commissioners, nor
for subsequent delay in ascertaining
their rights, nor is there any proof of
who the claimants are, or of their good
faith or that Menecio Domenquez ever
conveyed to any one his interest in the
tract of land. In this state of the case
the committee expressed the opinion
that the bill should not pass, and asked
for its indefinite postponment, which
the senate thereupon ordered and the
bill was accordingly killed.
