peers and ambassadors Although those Tn attendance showed the intense inter
 est that is taken in the progress of the debate on the Irish bill, public excite ment has somewhat abatsd. Mir. Glad stone was heartily cheered when he arose and said that the debate would be con- tlnUed until Monday when be hoped to close the discussion. He announced that the budget would be introduced on Tuesday and the Irish land bill on that day, the latter being a necessary supple mert to the home rule bill. He propOs- ed that the house.adiourn for the week k's holiday ct Easter.
 Mir. Chamberlain was received with faint cheers. Arising, he said he rose more for the purpose of making a per sOnal explanation than with the object of entering upon a detailed discussion ot the speech of Mr. Gladstone. Con- tinuing, he said that when he was asked to join the movement he told Mir. Glad stone that he did not think 1t was pOssi- ble to reconcile 8 separate parliament at Dublin, as demanded by the Irish members, with the conditions of full guarantee for the safety of the empire, and Mr. Gladstone informed him thst all he wanted then was an independent inquiry into the subject of the govern ment Of Ireland. He did not resign on the land purchase proposal alone, bat on the whole scheme. Still, he asked. bow could be explain hIs position if his hands were tied? Conservative cheers He took four of the principal objections to the scheme for the government of Ire land. The first was the proposal to ex- clude the Irish members from Westmin- ster; the second objection was to remOv- iug, as proposed, the exercise of tine right of imperial taxation; m the third place he objected to the surrender of the appointment Of judges and magistrates, and finally, he objected to the supreme authority given the Irish parliament in a matter not especially excluded from It's authority. Tue financial question he continued, divided Itseil into two parts: the English taxpayers would object to any additional burden beng thrown on them to make good the Irish deficiencies and the Irish taxpayers, If there were a deficiency in the budget owing to the failure of excise and customs duties, would be called CD to pay new taxes, fsiling which, the government would be obliged to repudiate the obligations. As for himself. rather than face the future agitation which would be certain to pre- vail between the two countries, rather than face the distractions and foreign | complications which would arise by hay ing quasi independent government, he would vote for a separation sure and simple. (LCud cheers) He looked for a solution of the home rule matter in | tbe direction of s federation under | federation, Ireland would then remain an integral portion ot the empire. This principle had been successful m Ger many and America, it would also nain- tam imperial unity and at the same time attain the desires of the Irish people for local self government.
 Mir. Healy taunted Mr. Chamberlain with usIngE his five years experience to attack s minister of fifty yea-s' exper- fence. He ,ridiculed the scheme of MT. Chamberlain as impracticable and as en- couraging an indefinite postponement of Legislation.
 ST LOUIS, Mo. April 9.-The deputies who did the shooting, eight in number, went to the third district police station in this city and surrendered themselves and were taken in a patrol wagon to the Four Courts where they were taken III. O custody and relieved of their arms. They say the crowd began firing at them first and they simply returned the fire. After the first firing was over and the strikers had became bent upon revenge, a umber of them provided themselves with reyolvers and advanced upon the Mission railroad yards where they sur prised the deputies on guard and fired into them, killing one. Great excite ment now prevails here and Tn East St. Louis. The strikers are fast arming themselves and are determined to av- ebge those of their number 20 wentonly slain. They say the local executive com mittee of Knights of Labor are on the scene attempting to restrain ;he men and trying to prevail upon thsm to meet in Fiannigan's hall where they desire to advise them against further violence. The men refuse, however, to meet them, claiming they would be surrounded by the deputies and fired up on again. A mass meeting of strikers, however, is being held in front of the city hall and are with difficulty restrained by their leaders from advancing in a body upon the different railroad yards and attack ing the deputies engaged. Guards of police are stationed at each approach of the bridge connecting with East St. Louis. No one is allowed tO pass over.
 The crowd after the firing, began to run up Broadway shouting 'to arms to Rrmsl We will get guns and return the fire" The women and children rsn out of their houses and met them in the | street, weeping and wringing their hands. The crowd returned to the scene. Several leading strikers drew revolvers and swore they would drive Al. I .N ... the loss of their own lives. It is ascer- tained arOther man named T. E. PlOmp- ton was among the killed.
