acquaintance he asked me to join him in
a speculative venture, which turned out
successfully. After that he proposed part
nership and eventoally my brother and
entered into partnership agreement. 1t was
represented that Ward and Fish were
worth S250,000 each. Ward had charge
OF the books and safe of the firm, and, in
fact, everything was intrusted to him
by the other members of the firm" Col.
Grant closed with this remark: 1 admit
have been fool; so has my father, the
general, and my brother, and there is

The Parliamentary sensation.


The Parliamentary Sensation.
LONDON, May 1S.-The small majority
received by the government in the vote
on the censure resolution is looked upon
as the sensation of the present session.
The Liberal leaders for some time conf
IDENTIFY counted on a much larger expires
sion in favor of the governments policy.
Thousands of persons vainly endeavored
to gain admission to the galleries of the
House. During the debate the corridors
and all approaches were thronged by
eager crowds. The popular expression of
feeling is strongly in opposition to the
government, and the sentiment found
vent in the com pents of the masses out
side, as well as Iy the demonstrations of
approval that g; seted the speeches deliv-
cred bv the adj pcates of censure The
Liberal whip hs worked very hard the
past week to ing ice unwilling members to
reject their convictions that the motion
should prevail, and members who had
been relied on to strengthen the govern
ment's majority refused persistently all
efforts to obtain their votes. The speeches
of Four and Goschen and other Liberal
members told heavily against the govern
ment. Up to the last moment the
Liberals had relied upon the sup
port OF the Irish vote. The result of the
voting showing so palpably reduction
of the government power in the House of
Commons was received with continuous
cheers from the Conservatives, which were
but feebly re-echoed from the government
side. This is the fourth motion for CEN
sure that has been voted on during the
present session OF Parliament, and shows
the fast dwindling away of the govern
ment majority.
