afternoon greater crowd was gathered in
the vicinity of St. Stephens than has yet
marked the progress of the Home Rule de-
Date' AS each prominent member passed

ne was cheered by his partisans, and when
Mr. Gladstone arrived he received a perfect
ovation. The Premier looked calm and col
lected and it was remarked that he wore a
small white rose in his butt0n-hole, en-
olatlc possibly of mission of peace.
Inside the House every seat was filled
both on the floor and in the galleries, and
the passage ways were so crowded as to
render it almost impossible to move from
one point to another.
When Mr.. Goschen rose to open the final
debate on the great question of Ireland's
freedom and speak in opposition to the bill.
ne was received with cheers, both by the
conservatives and by the anti-Gladstone
Liberal cliques, of which he is one of the
most promising members. His speech was
Substantially as follows:
lie said that the bill was said to be a
message of peace to Ireland, which the
Premier asserted would be torn to fragments
Immediately after its second reading. The
sovereignty of Parliament depended largely
on certain clauses contained in this bill to
which it was highly probable the majority
OF the House OF Commons would never as
sent. Ii the bill passed there would be a
tremendous struggle with the Catholic
clergy respecting the charge of education.
Regarding the question as to whether the
proposed measure would effect a final settle
ment or induce absolute separation Mr..
Goschen had not thought the finality would
depend entirely upon the Irish members and
the assurances of the Premier. He had once
supposed that the givers of certain pledges
would reconstruct the bill, but they had in
dlgnantly repudiated the assumption.
Mr.. Gladstone, nterruptng: 'That ia a
gross error. What the gentleman thinks
looks like indignation, was my eager repu.
dlatlon of the cool statement that had re-
solved to reconstruct the bill"
MIR. G0schen, continuing, said that he saw
distinction, but he was unable to see how
the Premier could avoid difficulty. The
House was now informed that the bill would
not be reconstructed, "Will the Govern
ment" said MIR. GOschen, ''stand by their
bill, or not?" This comes from voting. NOT
on the bill, but on the explanations first
given at the Foreign Office and ampied
and explained on the Friday following.
Further explanations to the answer given on
Monday were also ELECTED in various let
tiers which passed between the Premier and
his followers. That is the basis on which
many members had united to vote for the
Dill. The Premier was more anxious to
know from his supporters what they would
authorize him to give than he was to insist
on knowing what the Parnellites would
accept 1t has been shown that the
British Parliament is not inclined
to consider Mr.. Parnell its dictator.
MI. G0schen then reminded the House of
Mr.. Morey's repeated allusion to dark sub.
terranean forces during the first reading of
the Dill. There was not so much heard of
them now. Tragedies which have scarcely
faded from our memories greatly alarmed

perpetrators of these vile outrages. don't
say that they can do it. The matter may
have passed beyond their power. We have
right to pause when asked to place the
protection of life in Ireland in the hands of
an untutored and new executive and at the
same time relinquish the police"
Continuing he said that the presence of
the Irish members at Westminster was in
compatible with separate Irish Parliament
and it would be impossible to include Ulster
in Dublin Parliament. The financial and
taxation propositions were also inherent
defects
MIR. Parnell was greeted with deafening
burst of cheers from the Gladstone and
Parnell benches as he arose to reply to Mr.
G0schen. He said: 81 should ordinarily
have lacked confidence in following so able
and eloquent a speaker in this contest of
giants, but | think He is doubly armed who
