LONDON, February "A great tumult
of excitement occurred in the House OF
Commons this afternoon. motion was
made from the Government benches tC
suspend the regular order so that the de-
bate on the cenSure resolution OF the op'
position might be resumed. This was
opposed by the Irish members, who sue
ceeded in causing perfect uproar. VIII
liam O'Brien, member for Mallow and
editor of the United Ireland, was so hold
in his defiance of the rulings of the Speak
er that the latter suspended him.
LONDON, February 25.-The pretext
for the opposition by the Irish members
to the continuance of the debate on the
censure resolution in the Commons yes
terday afternoon, was that the regular
order of the day, namely Mr., Redmond's
motion for an inquiry into the Dublin
Castle scandals, Ou Iht not to be longer
postponed. The disorder which accom-
panied the filibustering OF the Irish mem-
bers has seldom had parallel in the
the House When Speaker Peel found
that his repeated calling Cf the obstruc-
tionists TO order was disregarded, he took
advantage of the power conferred upon
him by the c!oture rule, and as the only
method o: defending the House against 4
conspiracy among the handful OF
Parncllites, he peremptorily de-
clared the debate on the
pending question closed. This action
was followed by angry yells and exclaml-
tions from the Irish seats. NJ. O'Brien
cried out to the Speaker: ''We Will re-
member this insult to Ireland" Mr..
O'Bricn was thereupon "namcd" by the
Speaker, that is, suspended from the
privileges of the House for one week.
MIR. O'Bricn, as he turned to leave the
hall, called out again to the Speaker: "This
is the only honor have wished to obtain
from your hands" The Speaker simply
repeated his injunction to withdraw
from the House. Certainly! sir" re-
torted Mr.. O'Brien, and with more
pleasure than | ever had in entering" "

tanned the action of the Speaker in de-
claring cloturs The debate on the motion

The question of providing in India
qualified female medical practitioners
TO attend upon native women in sick
ness has recently been dealt with in a
resolution of the Lieutenant Governor
of Bengal apropos of the bequest by
the late Maharani of Surnomove OF a
lac and half of rupees toward that
object. The Importance of the ques-
tion arises mainly from the habits and
traditions of the women OF the upper
classes, which prevent them from
availing themselves of the services of
men as medical advisers. The chief
fmpediments to progress hitherto felt
In the matter have been want OF funds
and the difficulty of introducing a
eerious innovation into the conserv-
alive domain of medical practice. The
Maharani's munifcent bequest will
permit of the establishment of a much
needed hostel for female medical STU
dents at Calcutta.
