THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT.

LONDON, Feb. lin the house of COM
mons today Mr. Balfour's motion that
Edward De Goblin, member for East Bel
fast, a fugitive from justice in consequence
of the issuing of a warrant for his arrest
on grossly immoral charges, be notified to
attend the house on Tuesday, the 23d
inst, was adopted.
The debate on the address in reply to
the queens speech was renewed John +.
Redmond, in proposing an amendment for
the release of treason felony prisoners, re-
pudiated any sympathy with the dyna-
miters. He vindicated the innocence of
DAILY and Egan.
Secretary Matthews said that the gov
ernment had proof that DAILY had asked
for and received money and bombs from
New York. Daly's suggestion that he had
been the victim of politics was unfounded
Egan's offense, the home secretary said
was lesser one. The time might come
when it would be possible to reconsider his
case.
In the house of lords today the marquis
of Londonderry asked whether it was true
that Dillon, O'Brien and Healy, all mem
bers of the commons, had asked and been
accorded police protection In Ireland.
The earl of Cadogan replied in the af-
firmative.
The marquis of Londonderry reminded
the house that these persons" only re-
Gently went about posing as the idols of
the Irish people. They had denounced the
executive power in the most violent Ian
guage for having them shadowed, but now
they were extremely glad TO avail them
selves of the shadowing for their protec-
ton. The marquis further said that pro-
lection had been conceded to them
because two raging factions existed
in Ireland. who were breaking each
others heads and who were ready TO shed
each others blood. 1t was to the interest
of the Unionists to let the people under
stand the condition of the Irish parties, in
order that they might realize how absurd
and dangerous it would be to grant the
Irish any measure of home rule that
would place the loyal minority at the ten
der mercies of such men.

The CENSUS BUREAU.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1l.-A Washington
dispatch says: "On Monday President
Harrison summoned Secretary Noble to
the White House by telegram. After a
conference which lasted half an hour Mr.
Noble returned to the interior department
and called into his private room A C.
Tanner of the appointment division and
George w Evans, chief of the finance di-
vision. They were instructed to lay aside
al other work and to begin at once a thor
oUgh and sy stematic overhauling of the
census bureau. They were told that the
Investigation was by personal request of
the president, and that Mr.. Harrison would
be glad TO have report at as early day
as was consistent with conscientious in
vestigation.
'Mr. Porter's friends who have heard of
it are very much incensed at this action of
the president. When the secret investi
CATION was ordered Mr. Porter was not in
the city and had been away for several
weeks. They pronounced It taking an I'M
fair advantage of the uperintendent, and
said that if there was anything the presi-
dent could not understand, before putting
the experts to work he should have asked
the superintendent TO explain it.
''One of the things Secretary Noble is
particularly interested in is a letter from
X. f. Lasher, president of the St. Louis
furniture board of trade. dated Jan %
speech delivered before the commercial
club on Nov. %, gave in detail mauufac-
turing statistics upon which St Louis
merchants relied and based their calcula-
tiOns. These calculations have, to their
great indignation, been proven to be
wholly unreliable and worse than useless.
L want to call your attention. says Mr..
Lasher TO the fact that superintendent
Porter stated that he had plenty of money
with which to complete the work. With
plenty of money and ample time, the mer-
chants Of ST. Louis feel justified in de-
manding that you inform them Of the
cause of this apparent neglect and un-
warrantable delay"
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE secretary of
the interior has appointed A. G. COnnor,
clerk of the department, and
George Evans, disbursing officer, to ex
anime into the condition of the work of
the census office and to ascertain its
future needs. The secretary states that he
has no suspicion of wrong doing, and that
he has taken this course in order to satisfy
himself as to the exact condition of the
office as an incident of its administration.

THE wARD-MITcHELL MURDER.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. 11.-An appljca-
tion for a writ of habeas corpus in the case
of Lille Johnson, the alleged accessory in
the W ard Mitchell murder case, has been
made. The hearing will probably come
up on Friday. The proceedings ia these
cases will probably be long drawn out.
Miss Johnson's case will probably con
sumo several days and then the insanity
proceedings against Miss Mitchell will last
for some time. Miss johnson may be re-
leased and Miss Mitchell may be proven
sane, and then there will be long murder
trial, with the young ladies as principals.
