OVER THE OCEAN.
THE TIMES LIBEL CASE;

LONDON, Aug. 2.-In house of commons
Mr.. Labourchere called the attention of
the house to the breach Of privilege of
which the Times was guilty in charging
the Parnellites with trying to down
the commission bill with flood of black
guardism unparalleled in the history of
parliament. 1t deplored the circumstance
that Mr. Gladstone and Sir William Har-
court completed the foulmouthed oratory
of their Irish allies.
Mr.. Goschen concurred in the charge
that a breach of privilege had been COM
mitted by the Times. and there
was no use to mitigate the
fact by saying that strong language had
been used by the Parnellites against the
Times under the protection of privilege.
But if the house followed presidents it
would not now deal with the breach of
privilege, but would proceed with the
business of the day. Mr.. Goschen accord
ingly made a motion to that effect. 70
this the house agreed. He next
moved that the chairman shall have
power at II o'clock in the morning to put
the remaining clauses Mr.. Reed appealed
to the government to respect the right of
the minority to obtain a full discussion of
obnoxious clauses, and hoped that they
would not close the debate until the final
clause had been discussed which was to eX-
onerate the Times from an action for libel
Sir Lyon Playfair QiberaD declared that
the motion was the most unfortunate
precedent that the government could set
Such disclosure had hitherto been unheard
of.
Mr.. Sexton said that the Parnellites in
vited the fullest inquiry into the remotest
facts connected with "Parneliism and
crimes" if it was conducted by reason
able mode of procedure. 1t was import
ant to find under what motive the forged
letters We're written.
Mr.. Stavely Hill Conservative said that
unless a good account could be given of
how the Times came to possess the letters
or person could be produced who sold or
gave them. and who would be able to
stand an examination as to how he got
them, the judges would not accept the lie t.
iers as genuine Hear, hearl. The amend

The Brotherhood of Locomotive En- gineers is much mistaken If it suppes- es that it has the support of public opinion in it's efforts to prolong the Burlington strike That undertaking was blundsr to begin with, and the public is not at all disposed te look with favor or patience upon any com pact which proposes to make further trouble in such connection. The Brotherhood has injured itself materi- ally in popular estimation by refusing to recognize its deisat when the fact is so plain and conclusive. It has neth- ing whatever to gain by keeping up the fight in any form; but 1t has much to lose by such a pohcy, not only in reputation, but also in actual dollars and cents, and it's intelligence should be sufficient to restrain 1t from folly 50 obvious and 50 uEgorthy.
