ANOTHER UPRoAR.
LONDON, Aug. -, 3 A. M.-The house
then remained quiet until Mr.. Chaplin said
that the House OF Lords would survive the
attacks of the motley crew, which observa-
ton caused another uproar, lasting several
minutes and drowning Mr.. Chaplins re-
marks. When quiet was restored Mr.. Chap
lin offered to lay sporting wager that the
new government would not survive an
ordinary session, which offer caused
the house TO break into shouts of laughter.

where Mr.. Chaplin's notes lay
and accldently scattered the papers. The
whole assembly Joined the Irish in screams
OF laughter over Mr.. Chaplin's discontinue
Mr.. Chaplin himself complained that such a
reception had never been accorded a re-
sponsible minister.
THE QUESTION PUT.
Then the speaker rose to put the question
on Mr.. Aisquith's motion and was answered
with thunderous volume of yeas and nays
from the respective sides OF the honse.
Strangers having withdrawn from the pre-
cincts Of the chamber, the speaker repeated
the usual formula of putting the question,
and was again greeted with sustained and
vehement replies. The house divided at
midnight. When Mr.. Gladstone returned
from the lobby the whole liberal party rose
and oheered Inn.
The tellers appeared at 1925 q. m. with q
paper containing the numbers showing the
result of the division and handed the paper
to Arnold Morley, liberal whip. This
was the signal for a volley OF liberal cheers
and Irish shouts of "Mitchellsto wn ;" Down
with Balfourism." ETC., and IL was
some time before Mr.. Morley was able to
announce the figures. The result announced
was: For the motion $50 against the motion
$40. Then there was fresh display Of en-
thusiasm.
The noise having subsidized, Mr.. Balfour
and the whole body of conssr vatives rose,
and amid prolonged acclaims Mr., Baltour
moved that the house adjourn until Thurs
day next,
The motion was agreed TO.
THE DEBATE VERY DULL.
II to-night's proceedings in parIiame Mt
had not been attended with the historical
interest attached TO the fall OF a govern
ment the house would not have tolerated
the protracted dullness of the debate after
Mr.. Chamberlain spoke. But for some
minor members of the opposition selzing
chance to get a hearing the house would
have divided before the dinner hour
With -stolid patience, and devoid Of every
appearance of excitement, the house waited
the decisive moment Of the division. The
gravity of the occasion was seen in crowds
waiting In the palace yard until past mid
night, and the groups filling lobbles and
packing the galleries within the house. For
the first time since this night in 1886, when
Mr.. Gladstone first introduced home rule,
chairs had TO be brought in To seat mem
bers blocked out of the galleries.
ONLY TEN MEMBERS ABSENT.
For the first tune In the history of the
British parliament did the members muster
their full strength within ben. The peers
gallery was well occupied. The diplomatic
gallery was 80 full that Mr.. Lincoln. the
American minister and Mr.. Hat
arrived late, found seats with
some difficulty. AS the night wore on the
members got restless and INTERRUPTED every
speaker with cries of divide" divide"
They wandered wearily in and out of the
house and sent protests TO the whips for q
vote without delay.
KEPT THE HOUSE WAITING.
But the difficulty Of the whips was that
there were several members who we're un-
able TO arrive until II O'Clock, and the
house had to be going undor mutual ar
rangement until midnight. In the lobbies
men beguiled the tedium by speculatipg on
the exact number Of votes that the division
would show. At midnight every possible
vote was within call of the whips and vot-
ing commenced. The tellers for the amend
ment were Arnold Morley aud Maj. Banks,
and those for the government were Akers
Douglas and Sir William WGlrond.
