THE DEBATE ON HOME RULE.


Chamberlain Answers the Arguments
Made by Gladstone.
LONDON, April l3.-There was but q
thin attendance in the house Of COM
mons today when discussion was re-
sumed on the motion for q second read
ing OF the Irish home rule bill.
1t WAS not until Joseph Chamberlain
aroee that the house assumed an aspect
of interest and attention. Chamberlain
said the bill proposed to establish a
brand-new constitution for Ireland. The
prime minister asked them, continued
Cham berlain, when the controversy
would be settled if the measure should be
rejected. The whole question really
was, Would the bill settle the contro-
versy? Was not Gladstone in too great
q hurry, and was he not too impatient to
deal with the Irish difficulty? A new
era had opened for Ireland with thu dis,
establishment of the Irish church
Then the agrarian question had been
partly settled. Time ought to be given
to allow for the beneficial operations Of
these other measures, but the prime
minister said Ireland was still discon
tented that no progress toward concil'
iation had been made. II such was the
case, then the predictions OF the prime
minister regarding the measures he hac
already promoted for Ireland had provec
fallacious and threw discredit on similar
predictions in regard to the present meas
ere giving Ireland q separate legislature
Probably, added Chamberlain, the people
OF England would accept the bill if the.
believed it would enable them to get rit
OF the Irish question, but he feared i
would do nothing of the kind. Gladeton
had disregarded the rights of the minor
ity and treated the most influential an
prosperous section of the Irish peopl
with contempt.

LONDON, April l2.-Henry M. Stanley
has written to the Peace Association a
letter, in which he attributes the increase
Of the slave trade in 1892 at African ports
under the German administration to the
growing practice among German mer.
chants of importing into Africa small
arms and ammunition. These, he says,
are sold to slavetraders, and do inestima-
BILE damage. Stanley inculpates also the
Portuguese. He appeals to the Eu
ropean nations to suppress the traffic IL
arms. Unless this step is taken, hi
adds, all efforts to stop the slave trade
will be useless.
