Terms of HIS Settlement with His
SOmsTn.LRW.

The motion approving the settlement be-
tween Mr.. Adams and Lord Coleridge was
again adjourned. The much-talked-about
terms have been made public, and are as
follows: In relation to the causes of action
it shall be left to some person of eminence,
to be mutually agreed upon, to determine
whether compensation shall be paid to Mr..
Adams, and if so in what amount. Bernard
CoIeridge, while unreservedly Withdrawing
the charges made, states most positively
that he made them in good faith. Mr.. Adams
is happy frankly to accept such assurances.
Lord Coleridge desires and has long desired
to say that whatever construction may have
been placed upon anything he has written
or said he thinks it due to Mr.. Adams to
withdraw any Language which may be con-
strued as casting imputations upon his
character or motives. Lord COleridge is
perfectly willing to give Mrs. Adams pen
sion of $500.

the present was the most critical period
since 1882. Lord Salisbury had spoken
with decision regarding the church question.
and on that subject Mr.. Bright would not
challenge him, but the attempt to revive
protection was mischievous. Bright said
the present deFssassion was due partly to the

the LIBERAL LEADER
Gives Vent to His Views at Edin-
buFREa.

Mr.. Gladstone and wife and Lord Rose
berry and wife drove in carriage from Dali
meny Park through the principal thorough
fares to the Free Assembly Hall. Crowds of
people lined the route and great enthusiasm
was manifested. On reaching the hall
Gladstone found it literally packed with
people awaiting to hear his address.
Gladstone said it was impossible for Par
lament to deal with the Irish question sat-
isfactorily, except by the action of party
powerful enough to act Independently OF
the Irish vote. According to Tory as well
as Liberal reports, such party in the coming
Parliament can only be the Liberal party.
This consideration was of the highest i'm
portance. The Tories had circulated gratu-
itous insults about himself, which mode OF
warfare the Liberals never INDUCED in, and
he thought most of the respectable Tories
disapproved of it. One untruth was that
he possessed q large quantity of land in
Russia. Another was that he felled trees
on SUNDAYS. He recounted other untruths
uttered about him, one OF which was that
he opposed the household franchise. The
fact was that he advocated an extension OF
the suffrage. Gladstone then referred to
the question of disestablishment OF the
Church. He was not aware of any inten
ton to make disestablishment test ques
ton. He was confident that it had beer
made a test question by Tory influence
The Tories knew that the raising of tn
question would be most grave matter.
