tstrJ's Programme.

LONDON, June 20.-The Lord Mayor of
Dublin appeared in the House of Commons
this afternoon in his official robes and
presented the petition of the Corporation Of
Dublin against the repression bill. He at
tempted to make speech summarizing the
petition, when he was called to order.
Finally he merely read the petition.
The Times, In leading article, SAYS: carl
Spencer, Lord Lieutenant of ireland, and
his subordinate, after careful investiga-
tion, are convinced that crime In Ireland is
not sporadic, but that it's machinery is de-
liberateiy set 10 motion through an organ
ICED agency commanding large resources
and obeYing impulses of foreign origin"
The Times, In its column of naval and
military intelligence, says the guard ship
SalOurus was recently ordered to D.vanport
for court martial IN connection with certain
disciplinary offenses, but In consequence of
private information as to the danger of leav-
ing the Irish coast insuficiently watched the
order has been countermanded.
In the House of Commons this afternoon,
Mr.. Gladstone moved that precedence be
given to the arrears of rent bill, whenever
set down over other business, except the
repression bill, and that there be morning
s,tiiogs on Friday. He said he wished to
put tne arrears Dill INTO committee pro
fO1mdso as to introduce amendments,
including one authorizing the appointment
Of special agents to examine cases and thus
prevent the crowding OF the land courts
With regard to the other business of the
House ne promised to provide for the
continuance of the Irish Sun
day closing bill. He suggested that
the various bills by private members RI la
tive to agricultural tenants be read the sec
ond time and referred to the committee. He
stated that the government intended to per-
severe with the corrupt practices bill. They
were more than ever convinced that the pro-
cedure rules in some sense transcend every
other subject. They, therefore, still deem It
their duty to avail of every legitimate op-
portunity to settle the question. In relation
TO an autumn session of Parliament, Mr.
Gladstone said the government would deem
1t their duty not to remit the settlement of
the question Of procedure to another session
Ia the coming year.
Mr.. Gladstone's motion was adopted by a
vote of 253 to 81.

Ended.

WARRINGTON, June 2O.--Tne House Com
mittee on Foreign Affairs resumed IT'S ex-
animation of Mr.. Trescott this morning.
Nr. Belmont wished to know If the Credit
Industriel was the company that
was meant In the Instructions Of
June 18th, although not mentioned
by name. Witness replied: 81 would think
so, uuquestionsbly, to this extent. 1t Was
well understood that the Credit Industriel
had submitted two or three plans, and so
far as | knew 1t was the only Company that
had done sou Witness doubted the pro-
priety of his undertaking to swear to the
meaning of dispatch which was before the
committee, and should be judged by
its context. He was willing to
state, however, what he would have under
stood by the instructions had he been the
Minister to whom they were given. He
would feel justified In giving friendly coun-
tenanee to the Credit Industriel II they
seemed to be able to furnish war IN
demnity to Chilli aud save Peru from loss of
territory. But, IL the plans of the company
involved any guarantee on the part Of this
government or prOtectorate, he would
then have referred.the whole matter at once
to the State Department.
Mr. Belmont exhaus ed his ingenuity 10
an effort to obtain from Mr.. Treseott a

knowledge that the Credit Iudustriel was

but Mr.. Trescot refused to answer the direct

aud be was 100 guarded to be caught by a

Mr. Blouut also questioned Mr. Trescott
upon his knowledge of the Credit Indus
triel, but with no better result than Mr..

This closed the examination of Mr.. Tres.
