Sir stafford NOrthcourt on the Egyptian
Question.
I,nNnoS Eah op

LONDON, Feb, %
Sir Henry Tyler gave notice in the House
OF Commons today that he would ask tomor-
row what measures the government had taken
to prevent Herat from being captured by
Coup de main.
Sir Stafford Northcote, in the presence of
the full house, moved that the humble ad-
dress of which he gave notice Thursday, be
presented to the Queen, representing that the
course pursued BY the government in regard
to Egypt and the Soudan has involved great
sacrifice of valuable lives and heavy ex-
penses without any beneficial results, render
ing it imperatively necessary that the gov
ernment should Immediately recognize and
take decided measures to fulfil the RESPONSE
bility now incumbent on them to secure
good and stable government in Egypt and
those portions of the Soudan necessary for
its security.
Sir Stafford Northcote supported his mo-
tion in speech strongly criticising the gov
ernment, and he was enthusiastically cheered.
Sir Stafford referred to the gallant con-
duct of Gen. Gordon, and said: While we
feel prond of his courage. we have at the
same time feeling of shame at the mention
of his name. The speake quoted from Gen.
Gordon's message of April 16: If the tr oop.
are not sent it will leave upon the govern
ment an indellible disgrace of being Obliged
to abandon their garrisons.

tempt to hang him failed his spirit remained
unbroken and he walked back to his cell with
firm step The machinery was carefully
examined and the woodwork was found wet
and swollen so the spring and trap would not
move smoothly. The machinery was then
oiled and moved until the officials were con-
vinced it was in perfect condition. Lee was
again brought out from the cell. He stood
firmly again on the trap, but the machine
again refused to work. The victim shud-
dered but Strengthened himself up and was
second time removed to the cell. II was
evident his spirit was much broken. A third
time the machinery was adjusted and third
time was the murderer led out and noosed
and black capped. The spring was again
touched and again refused to operate. Lee
sank down in swoon and had to be carried
away from the place. Lee was subsequen ntly
in a most pitiable condition of mind. The
sheriff telegraphed to Sir VIM. Hsrcourt.
Home secretary, the history of the horrible
features to execute Lee and asked for in-
structions.
Lee, who escaped three attempts to hang
him this morning, has been respited by order
of the Home office.
