Special to the Gazette
LONDON, June l6.-The governments
police bill, which Is published to-day,
fails TO satisfy the disconnected "bob-
bies - notwithstanding Its obvious pur-
pose TO mollify the feeling growing out of
Matthews arbitrary course. The disaf-
feotlon of the police has finally taken
definite form and a meeting of represent
atives &C the force has been called
to decide upon plan OF action which will
be put into operation at once.
Professional labor agitators have come
promptly to the front with an offer of
assistance, and in some cases have dis
pensed with the formality of Offering
their services, and have taken up the
cause of the police as their own.
One of the first measures to be adopted
by the police, it Is stated upon authority,
will be their prompt and positive deolin-
alton of the services of these
Rgitators, for the reason that their
identification with the movement will
give away every element of popular sup
port of which the men stand in the great
est need and upon which they rely chiefly
for success. The influence of Chief Com
missioner Munro is being eXerted in the
direction of restraining violent express
sion of the intense excitement which pre-
wills IN his department, and this is the
only check on a demonstration which
would wreck the hopes of the leaders of
forcing the government into a liberal
compromise, If not
AN ABSOLUTE BACKDowN.
Ia parliament there is evidence in the
temper of the opposition and in Balfour' s
surrender in the matter of the land pur-
chase bill of the waning power of the
government, and every possible advan-
tage VIII be taken Of the situation to in
crease the confusion of the ministry.
TO PROTECT INVESTORS.
a bill of great Importance is
before parliament aud has been reported
favoTably from q committee. 1t holds
TO strict responsibility the men who
permit their names to be used as the di-
rectors of projected companies. 1t has
been common thing for noblemen and
others here, and prominent Americans
on the other side, TO permit for a cOusid-
Grafton the use of their names IN con-
nectIon with enterprises that are being
fioated on the British public. Here
after, should the bill become a law as it
doubtless will at this session,
all such persons thus authorizing the use
of their names will be liable financially
for the truth OF the statement to whIoh
their names are affixed as guarantees,
and any person losing money through
such an enterprise may bring suit against
any director ana recover damages, but
the director may present as a sufae
defense evidence showing that he
made careful inquiry in good faith
into the representation made in
behalf of the company. 1t is expected
that the operation of this bill will
put an end to much of the deception now
praoticed on British investors.

trGoting parties and the officiating
