SALISBURY ORDERED OUT
THE HOUSE OF COMMONS VOTES
NO CONFIDENCE.


LONDON, Aug. lin the House Of Com
mons to-day J. w. Lowther, parliamentary
secretary OF the foreign office, in respon Sc
to a question asked by Mr.. Mundella, said
that the government had made no rep
resentations or remonstrances to the United
States government concerning the McKin-
ley tariff bill. No communication had been
received at the foreign Office from Wash
iugton relating to the alleged interviews on
the subject.
Sir John Gorst, financial secretary to the
treasury, stated that no loan had yet been
advanced to British Columbia. The object
of the loan referred to by Sir John
is to aid In paying for the proposed fort
works and other defenses to be constructed
at Victoria, B. G.
The debate on the address in reply to the
queens speech was resumed, Joseph Cham
ing the floor. Mr.. Chamberlain said that
the influence OF the liberal-unionists was
not measured by their numbers. In parlia-
ment they remained all undoubted polite
force, nct lessened by their opponents call
ing them political apostates. or an ill
starred abortion. He agreed that
the issue between the unionists and
the home rulers had been decided
for the time by the country, and when Mr..
Gladstone went on 90 say that it was irrel-
evant to do anything more than expel the
governments without asking what would
follow he must protest. The coming gov
ernment had been rightly described as a
nebular hypothesis. 1t was so for the
unionlats. Mr.. Gladstone was not consist
ent, for while refusing TO explain his policy
be gave answers in writing to Mr.. No
Carthy's questions. Was IL not hard meas
ures when 3l5 unionists must not ask
single question and nationalists could ask
five ana get civil answers to them. Nova
days powerful telescopes forced nebular
bodies TO disclose their secrets and resolve
them into component atoms. Mr.. MCCARTHY
must have the most powerful of these iR-
struments MIR. Redmond must wish to
borrow it. Laughter
The present situation was unparalleled 10
English political history. Hitherto vote
Of want of confidence IN the government
implied confidence in the party replacing
them. The present opposition, II intact,
could put the government ip a minority OF
forty; but the new government might find
itself in a minority of 100 at almost the first
breath of it's existence. II was q strange
position, 30 the opposition strove TO stias
debate. What was the foreign policy Of
the incoming government Parliament
of Messrs. Gladstone aud Morley some time
ago had led many at home and abroad TO
believe that they designed an early evacua-
tion OF Egypt, while they disapproved the
policy of the triple alliance.
Mr.. Morley. interrupring- never
touched the question of the triple alliance
THE POSITION OF ITALY.
Mr.. Chamberla said that the position
OF Italy toward the allies had formed an
important part Of the speech Of Mr.. Nor
ley. Continuing, he said he hoped that
Lord Rosebery would be the new foreign
minister. The people had confidence in his
policy, because IL was opposed to that OF
Messrs. Gladstone and Morley. [Cheers. ]
If Lord Rosebery should not be the new
foreign minister, some morning they would
awake 70 find preparations being made to
evacuate Egypt, on which subject the
opinion of the house had never been taken.
He did not believe the democracy of the
country was in favor Of Mr.. Gladstone's
and Mr.. Aorleys policy Of scuttle. Hear,

DANGER IN THE RECESS.
But that policy might be carried out dur.
ing the recess, to gross injury Of the impe-
rial Interests while the voice Of parliament
could not be heard. Mr.. Gladstone tried to
satisfy the demands of the different sections
of the party besides the Irish members.
The assurances given one section might dis
please another, and the displeasure OF one
section might be fatal to the Gladstone
government. [Hear, Hear1 All nationals
lists concurred that the Irish question must
dominate, to the exclusion of British re-
forms. Hear, hear.l The prospect Of
Welsh disestablishment being thrust into
the background was not promising
CAN'T PLEASE ALL.
If Mr.. Gladstone kept faith with the Irish
members he would offend England; if he
kept faith with England he would offend
Ireland. singularlty Of the position was
that If they turned the government out
they did not know that the coming govern
ment could command a majority OF the
house, and had no opportunity OF learning
the opinions of the coming government.
They had been told that the policy OF the
irish party was to knock one government
out after another. IL so, how could the
queens government be carried oni Hear,
hear.1 How long was this state OF things
to last9 n Hear, hear. How long were ducks
and brakes to be made Of British legisla-
tionl The task that the opposition had
undertaken was OF herculean proportions.
They we're going TO try TO pull the union to
pieces to construct constitution.
UNABLE TO AGREE.
There were two conditions absolutely es-
sential First, they must agree among
themselves; next, they must rely upon the
moderation of their Irish allies. They
could, however, neither effect an agreement
among their own party nor place reliance
on Irish members [Conser vative cheers. !
Divided among themselves those they
sought to benefit began by debating TO
them. [Cheersl
He asked the wisest among the opposition
TO give the matter serious reconsideration.
I"O,n"O."1
To the Others he did not speak He asked
them to consider that what at all times had
been difficult quegtion-the supremacy of
the imperial parliament-had now become
impossible. Hear, hear They could
not conceal from themselves the fact that
they would be unable to fulfill the expecta-
tions which they had excited; that their
efforts were doomed beforehand to Inc git-
able failure. Prolonged cheeringl
Sir Henry James Niberal -unionist) said
that IN common fairness TO their cons
stituents they ought to know the provisions
of the home rule bill Mr.. Gladstone him
self had taught them that it would be
dangerous, perhaps destructive, TO rely on
the irish vote, yet his majority was purely
Irish.
CALLS FOR THE DIVISION,
Mr.. Chaplin, president Of the board OF
agriculture, then rose TO speak, but was
treated to such a storm Of shouts Of 'di-
vide,n "divlde" that bis voice was In
audible.
Mr.. Chaplin resumed his seat, but the
speaker loudly called for order and recalled
