HOME RULE BATTLE.
GLADsTOyE PREPARING FOR THE
GREAT FIGHT THIS WEEK.
Tho Celebration OF BismArck's Birthday
stirs Moro Bad Blood In German
Politics The Monument.

LONDON, April s.-The revival OF the
home rule debate on Wednesday was
Unexpectedly tame. All the big men Of
the opposition were absent. Mr.. Balfour,
leader OF the Un:onsts, was still in Ul-
ster, exhorting the Orangemen to stand
fast against the attempt 10 unload a
Dublin parliament on them.
Lord Randolph Churchill was In the pro-
vinces, predicting civil war in case the
premier should have his way In the
Government OF Ireland. Joseph Chamber
lain and Mr.. Goschen were out pushing
the campaign OF prophecy and denuncia-
ton in the principal cities OF the North.
AS James William Lowther, who
has assumed some prerogative OF leader
ship among the Tories recently is
poor talker, the duty OF answering Mr..
Gladstone and a speech the motion for
a second reading developed upon Sir
Michael Hicks Beach. a second rate de-
batter, who did nothing TO redeem his
reputation. Mr.. Gladstone was in good
form. and spoke with a display of energy.

ton has put new life into him. lie said,
however, little or nothing that he had not
said In his great speech introducing the
bill. He has returned to Brighton TO
remedy his energies for the hot fight.
which will begin on Monday with tho re-
turn to the House OF the Union leaders.
Bismarck's Monument.
Like everything connected with Bis
marck the celebration OF his last birth
day has stirred some bad blood In Ger
man politics. The Leipsic Gazette, In
apparent disgust with the fatterers in
Berlin. who try to please the Emperor
by sighting the eX-Chancellor. has let
loose a torrent Of sccrn upon Won Levet-
zow. president Of the Reichstag because
he refuses to take steps toward applying
to its proper uses the Bismarck monu.
ment fund under his supervision. Since
Bismarck began speaking his mind about
the Emperor, however, the committee IN
charge OF the fund, and most conspicu-
ousy Herr Won Levetzow, the chairman.
have been paralyzed by fear that any
step toward honOring Bismarck with
monument would offend the Emperor. and
hence have allowed the money to lie idle
for two years after work should be be-
gun. The LEIPZIG Gazette remarks ironi-
cally that perhaps Won LevetZow has
forgotten about the fund. as a few weeks
ago his loss OF memory had become so
remarkable that he omitted 10 mention
Bismarck as one OF the few members ot
the North German Relchstag who had
sat In the present house
II Berlin feels ashamed to honor the
greatest OF modest Germans. adds the
Gazette. Leipsic will be only too happy
to relieve her Of the duty and 10 grant
| as a site for the Bismarck monument the
finest spot within their limits. This arti-
Gle has been widely quoted and approved,
and there is a loud demand that the mon
| ument committee either consult the EN-
peror or get out OF Office.

GRAND LODGE or ODD-FELLOWs.
Some of the Work Before the Session,

NORFOLK, VA. April S-Special.-The
fifty-sixth session OF the Grand Lodge OF
virginia. Independent order Of Odd-Fel-
lows. which meets here on Tuesday next,
will be the most interesting session Of
that body for number Of years past.
PreparatiOns are being made by the va
rious lodges of this city and Portsmouth
for a grand reception TO the officers ana
representatives who may be IN attend
ance M
The most important business that VIII
be transacted Is the resolutions from va
rious lodges of the order requesting the
Grand Lodge TO elect a permanent grand
secretary and lecturer. The reason Tor
this action by the lodges is due 10 the fact
that the present grand secretary cannot
give his entire time TO the duties or the
office, as the interests OF the order de-
mand, on account of being engaged In
large business, which he cannot neglect
for that OF odd Fellowship.
The condition of Odd-Fellowship in the
Jurisdiction Of Virginia requires some one
i'm the office OF grand secretary who Is
not encumbered with business OF any
kind. and can give attention TO the duties
OF the Office alone by travelling over the
State, organizing new lodges and reviv-
ing those that have gone down. To DC
this a young. live and energetic member
OF the order is necessary. Virginia Is
away behind her sister Grand Lodges
throughout the country In membership
finances and general condition OF the or
der and the progressive members OF the
fraternity are anxious for a change, and
will push the measure with VIII at the

THE DOCK LABORBRS' STRIKE.
faces OF the Workmen Easily Filled by
Non-Union Men, Who arc Protected.

LONDON, April S.-The situation arising
from the dock laborers' strike In Hull
is still serious The refusal OF the offers
TO compromise made by the strikers last
night has caused much indignation among
the leaders Of the Dock LabOrers' Union.
as they consider the refusal OF the owners
to be snub, and. il may be said fear
IL presages defeat. Business at the docks
was resumed this morning. the work Of
unloading vessels being done by nom
union men, OF whom there are many in
town who are willing 10 work II they
are assured protection from the riotous
strikers.
The report that the authorities had
asked for military assistance proves to
have been correct and the docks this
morning were patrolled by Dragons.
The streets and drinking places along
the water front are clled with strikers
and their sympathizers, who are bitter
I'm their denuncations OF the Shipping
Federation. Though threats are heard
in every direction. there has been as Yet
TODAY no attempt TO create disorder.
This. probably, Is due TO the presence
Of the soldiers. and also to the fact that
the police force is strongly reinforced.
The strikers are sullen, however ana IL
would require only n spark TO start
flame that would have disastrous conse-
auences The authorities are determined
10 preserve order at all hazards ana
should the strikers attempt 10 repeat
their riotous demonstrations or yesterday
they will meet with scant courtesy.
