BRITISH PARLIAMENT.



Be Earnestly Attacked.
LONDON, Feb. In the Commons, to-day,
Northeote gave notice that he will introduce
resolution on Tuesday stating that in the opinion
of the House the recent events with Soudan are
the direct result of the vacllating and inconsist
emit policy of the government
This was greeted with loud cheers from the
opposition.
Huntington, Secretary of State for War;
stated that no dispatches had been received con
firmatory of the rumored captue of Gen. Cor
don. telegram to-day from the British Min
lister at Cairo made no mention of the affair.
Trevelyan, Chief Secretary for Ireland, in re
ply to an inquiry of Thomas Seaton, member for
Sligo, relative to the attitude of the government
toward the Irish justices of the peace who in
dorse the action of Lord Rossmore, the recently
suspended magistrate, seid the government
would deal with all such cases as they arose.
Dodson, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster,
stated that for several months there had been no
case of foot and mouth disease among imported
cattle, and that in the present condition OF the
laws the government had no power to prohibit
the importation of foreign cattle.
Gladstone denied that Sinkat had been cap
tured by the rebels, but admitted that its condi-
ton was critical He stated, further, that the
government knew absolutely nothing of the
| massacre Of the 400 men under Tewfik Bey.
Henry Chaplin, Conservative member for Mid
Lincolnshire moved that measure to prevent
the importation of animals suffering from foot
and mouth disease be introduced without delay.
Mr.. Gladstone said he could not give pledge
of the government that such a measure should
have precedence of the great measures mention
ed in the speech from the throne.
Hicks Beach, Conservative, said the govern
ment knew that the disease still existed in
America, Holland and Germany, yet they We're
not prepared to give definite pledge to prohibit
Immediately the importation of cattle from
countries in which the disease prevails
Arthur Arnold, Liberal member for Stafford,
asserted that only one case of the disease could
be proved imported from America in the last six
months. The government, he declared, would
do great injury to British consumers if they
should stop the importation of cattle from Amer
lea.
Thomas Duckham, Liberal member for Here
fordshre, quoted statistics, showing that the
number of cases of disease among cattle i'm
ported from America in 1888 was 536, against 647
cases among cattle from all other countries.
Chaplin's motion was defeated, Psi to 200.
In the HouFe of Lords the Marquis of Sails
bury gave notice that he would introduce reso
luton in reference to the governments policy in
Egypt similar to that which Sir Stafford North
cote gave notice of in the House of Commons.
