LONDON, sept ll.-Although the new
Unionists held an overwhelming majority
in the Trades Union Congress, they used
their power with moderation and discretion,
In marked contrast with last years meet
ing. Socialism, land naturalization and
denuneiation of capital were not permitted
TO occupy the attention of the Congress, the
delegates applying themselves to discus
sions of an Immediately practical nature.
The democratic character of the congress
was never more pronounced, though social
istic views were less obtrusive. The per-
vading tone of the speeches swowed an abb
solute conviction that labor will, within
the near future dominate Parliament and
make the country's law. The old school
labor men displayed the same consciousness
Of mastery Of the position as the new union
lists. though tanner in vindicating their labor
claims and predictions of victory The
moderates could not prevent the ultra-dem-
ocratic section from passing,
SOME ERRATIC RESOLUTIONS
such as the payment of County Councillors
and vestrymen and everybody holding a
representative place, the appointment of
workmen on jurieS and the payment of
every iuryman 10 shillings day-proposals
which in general point to aspirations on the
part Of the delegates for future spoils of
Office.
The proceedings eliminated to-day in a
contest between the old and the new union
lists over the election of a parliamentary
committee. The existing committee has a
large element of old unionists and moderate
men desiring to reform the constitution of
the congress, giving the ultras less power.
The report of the Committee on Constitu-
tion proposed to base representation on the
numerical principle, each society having
delegates in the ratio of its membership.
The whole question WAS finally referred
back to the Parliamentary Committee, with
instructions to prepare a constitution on the
principle of lone man, one vote.
Their recommendations, which were sub
mitted to the trades councils throughout
the country before the Congress, deems the
revision of the Constitution, the coming
general elections and the appointment of
Parliamentary committee of leading i'm
portance. The voting proceeded quietly,
and Mr.. Wilson, NJ. P, announced that the
results would be declared tomorrow. Re-
port credits the new uniOnists with having
secured majority of the committee.
THE DARDANELLEs QUESTION.
/
has Subsided is untrue Lord Salisbury is
actively taking diplomatic steps. The
Porte's Ambassador here was summoned to
COnstantinople yesterday to give an ac-
count of the situation.
The ex-tirand Vizier, Kiamil Pasha, con-
tinues prisoner in his own house. The
British Minister at Oonstantinople, Sir
William White, and the German Ambassa-
dor, Herr Won RadOwitz, have made repre-
sentations to the Sultan with a view to the
protection of Kiamil Pasha. The Sultan,
who gave audience to-day to Herr Won
Radowitz, denied that his designs were in
imical to any European power, and stated
referring to Kiamil, that there was no
serious charge against him.
A dispatch to-day from Constantinople
says that Kiamil Will probable be appointed
Governor of Smyrna.
THE CHILEAN JUNTA's DIPLOMACY.
The personnel of the Chilean legation
here act in conjunction with Augustin Ross,
the Chilean Junta's agent. Auguste
Matte, of Paris, and Claudio Matte, of
Berlin, acting for the Junta, lave taken
temporary charge of the legations in those
cities. Senior Godoy. Balmaceda's late
agent, has ceased to act, and has instructed
the Armstrong; to apply to Matte for orders
concerning the Presidente Pinto. Matte
telegraphed the Armstrong; to send the
cruiser to Havre or Cuxhaven, and he tele-
graphs tonight that the Pinto has passed |
up the river toward Hamburg.
The pending legal question appears to re-
tard the surrender of the vessel to the |
Junta. The members of the legation here
predict that the finances of Chile will be |
reorganized within year, and that the |
budget Will soon show surplus 1t is |
semi-officially estimated that the revolu- |

recUperation will be speedy.

suspicious of the religious classes are keenly
fixed on the Prince, who seems to disregard
the evil report and to take his own course

risk Of further weakening of devotion to
the throne. He will probably join the Duke

hold receptions in Dublin

The DELAY in the marriage of Lord Hart

Of the Duke of Devonshire, who is an earn
est opponent of second marriages. holding |
that the sacrament is thereby violated. The
lge and feebleness of the Duke, whose

Harrington, in the meantime, to respect his
wishes.
