HOUSE OF COMMONS.
Gladstone Warmly Received bv the
Members - ParnelI Delivers a Long
speech on His Land Bill.

LONDON, Sept 20.
Mr. Gladstone attended this evenings ses-
sion of the House of Commons. A crowd
had assembled outside to see him and gave
him an ovation when he came. He was re-
ceived by similar demonstration by the
members of the House when he appeared on
the floor. He looks as if he was enjoying
robust health.
Lord Randolph Churchill announced that
the government would at the next session in
troduce a bill to facilitate the transfer of
land and reducing legal costs. This an
nouncement was received with cheers.
Sir Michael Hicks Beach, chief secretary
for Ireland, replying to an iuterrogatory by
Parnell, said that since June 18th one thou
sand families, comprising 53ll persons had
been evicted in Ireland, and that of these
$50 families, including 1926 persons, had
been readmitted to former premises as care
takers.
Parnell in speaking on his land bill said
that the recent elections conveyed a mandate
to the House of Commons, that it should
itself be willing and able to provide for the
wants of Ireland equally as il it was an Irish
Parliament. Cheers 1t was useless to
talk about the lateness of the session, the
House was only six weeks old and the major
ity of the new members were young, fresh
and not overworked and they did not require
a holiday. The state of urgency existed with
reference to the relations between landlords
and tenants in Ireland. Parnell here ex-
planned the provisions of the bill The first
clause, he said, was the most important be-
cause 1t dwelt with the most urgent subjetc.
1t enacted that any statutory tenant whose
rent was fixed prior to the last day of the
year 1884 might apply for an abatement in
accordance with the provisions of the bill.
The bill was to be a temporary measure with
the exception of the second clause. 1t was
intended to provide for what he hoped would
oe only temporary emergency. 1t was in
tended to meet the depression in prices, but
he could not tell now whether the depression
was likely to continue. In conclusion he
earestly entreated the House to allow the
second reading of the bill which. he said,
would benefit the landlords themselves. Parn-
ellis speech occupied one hour and twenty
minutes in its delivery and was frequently
applauded.

REVOLUTION In SPAIN.
An Uprising OF Troops in the City of
Madrid The Movement Successfully
Repulsed by spanish Authorities.
MADRID. Sept. 20.


revolution was attempted last evening BY
a number OF Spanish troops qusrtered IN
Madrid. The uprising was i'll planned and
i'll managed. and practically amounted TO but
little more than a mutiny.
The trouble was ipsugursted by q regiment
of infantry quartered in the Gil Bias bar
racks. The soldiers revolted, broke down a
portion of the wall that separated them from
the quarters occupied by the cavalry and in
termingled with the men of the two cavalry
regiments, q number of whom Joined the rev
olation.
The officers in all three regiments did all
in their power to dissuade the men from re-
voting. But 500 soldiers, after beating a
number Of officers, and wounding three, de-
serted the barracks and marched in two bod
les through the city. One body went to Pra-
do, the principal park and promenade of
Madrid. Four thousand troops were GUAR
tered at Praao at the time and the revolution
lists expected to be Joined by them. The
other body went hurrahing through the streets
of Madrid, calling on the people to join in
the revolution, CRYING Long live the repub-
lie" and making all kinds of threats against
the monarchy.
At this time the theatres and other places
of amusement we're crowded. The populace
were taken by surprise. To most OF the
public places the people flock in jam. All
entertainments were abruptly finished. The
streets were soon filled with people, all of
whom were terror stricken because of the
exaggerated idea of what was transpiring
The insurgents attempted, among the first
exploits. to secure possession of the arsenal,
docks and barracks which they attacked with
open fire, but all these places we're well and
successfully defended, and the rebels were
repulsed Finally, their reverses drawing
them together, the insurgents attacked and
took possession of the Southern railway sta
ton.
BY this time the authorities had taken in
the situation and had fully prepared to mas
ter it. Loyal troops were marched to the
railway and after a short fight completely
dislodged the revolutionists, who dispersed
into the country, General Pavia pursuing
During the fighting in the city one of the
officers leading the insurgents was killed.
The rebels shot General Valarde for refusing
to join them.
Count Mirasal was also mortally wounded
by the soldiers, and colonel of the artillery
was killed outri.h'.
Marshal law was proclaimed throughout
the city as soon as the condition of affairs
was clearly perceived by the government.
Quiet was soon restored after the revolution
lists were driven from the Southern railway.
number of insurgents were taken prison
ers.
This morning there was no appearance of a
revolution or sign of disorder. When the
insurgents fed from the town, 40 of them
compelled the station master to place at their
disposal a special train with which they made
their flight. Government troops were soon
in pursuit in another special train.

FIRE AT GILBERrVILLE.
The Dennison PuIp Mill Badly DAM
aged.

CANTON, Sept. 20.
Fire was discovered in the Dennison pulp
mill at Gilbertville about IL o'clock Sunday
night. An alarm was given at once and
plenty of help turned out 1t was very
favorable time as we had just had good
shower and the ground around the mill and
the roofs of buildings were well wet down.
1t appears that the fire caught near the black
ask room. The origin is unknown. Posi-
bly, the mill have have been struck by light
ming during the shower. The mill was well
supplied with automatic sprinklers and with
the aid of the force pump and especially the
bucket brigade the fire was soon extinguished.
The loss on the building will probably not
exceed one thousand dollars. On the stock
and apparatus an estimate cannot be made at
this writing but it will probably be number
of thousand dollars.

Less Frequent.

CHARLESTON, Va, Sept. 20.
The conditions of Summerville for the
past three days in regard to the earthquake
disturbances has been very reassuring and
the people are strongly impressed with the
belief that the tremors and detonations are
about to cease. On Saturday last the whole
day passed without even as much as a deto-
nation. There were only two scarcely audi
BILE explosions Saturday night, separated by
an interval of two hours. Sunday morning
there was a plainly audible explosion, which
was unaccompanied by the usual trembling
of the earth. At IL o'clock Sunday night
was a tremor which caused little comment.
At 2, this morning, there was another slight
shock. The detonations and tremor are now
at very long intervals and are unheard except
by the most timorous. The death list in
Charleston from the effects of exposure, is
40 against 50 in the previous week. There
is still scarcity Of skilled bricklayers and
