Rejection Of Instructions Concerning the
Home-Ruie Bill Blow to Its Enemies.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
LONDON. May 6-The discussion of the
home-rule bill will be resumed In the COM
mlttee Of the House on Monday. Although
the dreary waste Of amendments has al
ready extended to the thlrty-third page,
the opposition are far from being satisfied
with the promise of detail. They had
formed . plan to elaborate their OBJ
strucuve tactics by means of thirteen
so-called instructions. which. in their
essence. were nothing more nor
less than thirteen resolutions to-
render the measure nugatOrY. This scheme
who immediately ruled that the instruc-
tions were out OF order. This ruling Was
sad blow to the hopes of Balfour and
Chamberlain, who had been calculating
upon wasting upon their motion two or
three weeks of the oommittees time. Their
only alternative now is to concentrate
their energies upon manufacturing. moving
and discussing amendments.
The situation created by the Speakers
rnIing was considered last evening By forty
UniOnists representing the Balfour and
Chamberlain wings of the opposition.
Mr.. Bslfour and Lord Churchill aid most
of the talking at the meeting for the Con-
servatlves, Mr. Chamberlain for the Ulster
huQ OOIOutl SauuucE5Ou
the Ulster Loyalists. The most i'm.
portant decisions were that the Unionists
oppose any attempt to exclude Ulster
from the full operation of the home-rule
bill and that the government should pass
the Parneilite amendment providing for
the retention at Westminster of all 103
Irish members, instead of but 80. as pro-
posed by the bill. The Unionists endeavor
TO make this retention conditional upon
redistrl button of Irish seats The attitude
of Gladstone toward this amend
meut has been SO v8riously stated
that yesterday Justin Mccarthy and
John Dillon called upon the Premier TO OBJ
tain from him an unequivOcal declaration
In the matter. They received from him
positive assurances that he would not
yield his determination tn keep In the
House 103 Irish members with votes on all
questions. At the same time Mr.. Gladstone
said that be would not consent. under any
circumstances. TO the redistribution OF
seats advocated by the opposition.

LABOUCHERE PROTESTS.

He Objects to Voting Marriage Grant to
Princess May, of Teck.
Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
LONDON. May 6-The bethrothal of the
Duke of York and the Princess May. of
Teck. has created the question whether or
not Parliament can be asked to make q
marriage grant. This question Is dis.
oussed boldly IN the lobbies, and the
bulk of opinion inolines to the
believe that the recent grants to the Prince
OF Wales covered the marriage settlements.
Henry Lsbouchere says that he can con-
celve of no arrangements which would
Justify such settlements. The recent
grants to the Prince of Wales. he thinks,
were certainly meant for the whole family
of the Prince. IF demand for the mar
riage settlement be made npon
Parliament" he said. the Rad
icals will feel bound to refuse il.
In connection with the proceedings, which
resulted in fixing an annual grant instead
of an intermediate one. my only regret Is
that did not move that when death oc-
Cured in the family OF the Prince of Wales
the proportion of the grant thus released
should be returned to the state. My not
proposing 1t was clearly an oversight"
Mr.. Gladstone is in rather a delicate posi-
tion as regards the grant In the lobbies he
is credited with having evolved plan for
circumventIng the difficulty by proposing q
special portion for the bride on the ground
that Parliament hitherto had always made
provision for the future king.
