Gladstone Creates n Senaation IN the
House of Commons.
Mr.. Gladstone, in the House of Com
mons, on the afternoon of the 18th,
moved that the House devote four
nights out OF the five given to Parlia-
mentary business every week to the
debate on the Home Rule bill. The
Premier's proposal produced a sensa-
ton, as it had come to be generally
believed without any clearly defined
reason therefor, that the government
had about given up hope of carrying
their measure and would bring on the
crisis as early as possible. An excited
discussion at once followed Mr.. Glad
stones motion. During this both
sides to the controversy revealed their
positions. After a long and warm dis
cussion Mr.. Gladstone's motion was
carried.
