heavy rains in the Thames valley have

ly suspended.
LONDON, Oct. 30.-In the house of com
mons this afternoon under Secretary
Dixie stated the composition OF the in
delnnisy commission SO ti,e. er n;ne what
was ar equitable resu--. for Alexandria
conhagr ations in foreign quarters during
, the Bed0uin riots. AS it had not been
fixed upon as the English government were
not parties to any treaty or alliance or
contract which would prevent
Egyptians exercising control over
their own taxation, Banneman,
financial secretary of the war Office,
stated that the death of Prof. Palmer in
Egypt had not been fully confirmed. His
mission carried 10000 dollars specie to
purchase camels of Bedouins.
Gladstone mentioned that application
had been made by the Egyptian govern
ment to British officers in Egypt for aid
in suppressing the Soudan rebellion.
This application was under consideration.
Beach asked whether any steps had yet
been taken as had been proposed by Earl
Granville for the purpose of establishing
| in concert with the United States, such
regulations for coast fisheries in Newfound-
land as could serve to prevent collisions
between fishermen from that section and
! the United States. Also, whether the $4,000
which was agreed upon as compensa-
ton for violence done to American
| fisherman in Fortune bay has ever been
paid by the colonial government. Ashley,
| political secretary Of the board of trade,
| replied that there had been considerable
! correspondence touching the matter with
| the United States government but no reg
| uiar understanding had yet been obtained.
This money for indemnity, which was ad-
| vanced by the government of Great

| mended at the next meeting.

will follow if the present temper of the
people is not temporary Modified.
