pesfed TO better advantage, bat Miss Juch's part
was not Qualified to give her rnuch of chance To
exhibit her voice. The company is larger and
artisticaly Is superior to that Of Maplesons
Italian company
Alexander Ernestinoff--The work was one
which was not calculated to impress an audiences
OF to-day, as It was composed century ago. and
society as rule, does not appreciate such a
work. The rendition is beyond criticism. and
the individual parts in particular that of Miss
Hastreiter, were rendered in q like manner.
p. NJ. Loomis-Nothing can be said in ouea-
ton of the artistic ability of the opera or its rom
dition, but I think some other composition
would have been much more appreciated. and
would also, have satisfied the audience
Max Leckner-I consider the entire perform
ance far beyond my criticism, aud it compares
favorabiy, il it does not exceed, the German or
Italian presentations. The individual parts
could not have been more properly apportioned,
and Miss Hastreiter supported her characterize
ton with marked ability
Andrew Heckler-I never heard a singer OF
more dramatic ability than Miss Hastreiter, nor
one who could display so much passion in tho
rendition of her part The chorus-well, the
chorus was fair, but the performances
somewhat too spectacular--a little more music
and not SO much ballet. The majority OF the
audience did not thoroughly understand nor APP
preciate the opera which should be heard moro
than once to be appreciated perfectly.
G. w. Weegman-Gluck's music. think will
soon be appreciated as it deserves to be, and
think the audience is perfectly satisfied with the
performances The whole performance was re
markedly fine.

FATAL RACE-cOURSE ACCIDENT.
The Collapse of Stand Causes the Death of
RepOrter-Several Others Injured.

ST. LOUIS. June 7..-During the contest for the
Eclipse stakes this afternoon at the fair grounds
the stand occupied by press representatives col
lapsed and fell with crash carrying down with
it the occupants, and crushing those standing
under. Following is list of the killed and most
severely injured:
Charles Dyer, assistant sporting editor of the
ST. Louis Republican received severe internal
injuries from which he soon died; Charles K.
Osborne, agent of the Associated Press,
spine severly injured; Joseph B. McCul-
lagh, managing editor of the Globe Democrat,
wrist and ankle sprained; G.. f. Battoue, of
Silver City, COL, shoulder broken, also injured
about the head; Pat Skousle, shoulder broken;
A. L. Cary, bruised about the head and limbs;
August Gessler, arm broken.
Many others were slightly injured. The acct
dent occurred during the last half-mile of the
race when Miss Woodford forged ahead of Alta
and took the lead Every eye was strained to
catch the exact position of the horses,
and those nearest the rail leaned over in
their excitement, while those from behind
crowded up as not to lose sight of
the least detail of the race. The combined
weight of all these spectators on one part OF
the stand proved too great, and the accident
followed. 1t is expected that all of the injured
will have recovered within few days.

Mr.. Gladstone then referred to the case Of
Canada. and quoted Lord John Russell insup-
port Of his position He continued:
I will 60 back to the time of Lord Grey's re-
form act When that bill was introduced, 1t
WAS honestly believed, by the great masses OF In
telligent men, that the bill absolutely involved
the destruction of the monarchy. The Duke OF
Wellington propounded doctrine very much to
that effect, but l don't think any of
those gentlemen or the newspapers that sup
ported them ever descended so low in the weapon
of their warfare as to brand it the monarchy
destruction bill" This is merely begging the
question. l must make very large demand
upon your patience and indulgence, for
we conscientiously think there are
unionists and disunionists. but we con-
scentiously think our conduct tends
to union This involves very large and deep
historical question. Let US try for few mo-
ments to look at it historically The arguments
made from the other side appear to me to
rest their principle in the main upon two
suppositions--one the idea of the profound
the Irish people. But there is another; 1t is the
conscientious conviction of the gentlemen oppo-
site that when two countries associated, but not
incorporated with each other, are in disturbed
to create an absolute legislative incorporation
That, / believe. is the doctrine on the Irish
side of the House, and they believe the dissou-
ton of such interpretations is clearly the move
to bring about q dissolution of the po-
litical relations between these two
countries. do not deny that
where there is legislative incorporation
under the same crown, where that crown
is absolute, great country as It was
in the case of France; but what l say
is that this trouble as proved by history, is
this-that when there are disturbed relations be-
tween countries that are politically associated.
but not Incorporated, the real remedy is to make
provision for civil independence, subject to i'm
peral unity.
A vote was taken, and the government was
defeated by majority Of 30. The vote was 3l1
for the measure aud 341 against it.
Mr.. Gladstone moved an adjournment until
Thursday, and the motion was adopted

under treatment for eleven days, he exhibited
