NEAR DEATH-PERSONA


ton and Chairman Mcllors incapacity has been bet
tered noticcably by Mr. Gladstone's announcement
that summary action could be no longer deferred
The resolution intended to hasten the progress Of the
Home Rule bill has TOO late TO satisfy all the
Gadstonans. but not too late TO prevent the catas
trophe which threatened the bill last week. Liberal,
and Radicals have regaincd their courage and the
Irish members although still troubling the Govern
ment with their domestic chickering's. have suppressed
temporarily their mutlnous protests.
The Tories writhinG in unrca sonabe eXaspera-
ton under Mr. GlaGslone's closure resolution. Many
Cf them demanded first that the Cni0nist leaders
withdraw from further debate on the bill In commit
tee and leave the Government free hand do il

ton was discussed earnestly in Conservative circles
| last evening. As a dramatic and sensational form
Of protest 1t found not Il few supporters among the
ultra. { Conservative members. II was rejected, how
ever by Joseph Chamberlain. whose judgment is ac
ceptcd now as virtually beyond appeal. Nj. Cham
bcrlan advised that change Of tactics be made by
the Unonlsts They should act, he said, In utter
disregard Of Mr. Gladsone's proposals. They shoud
proceed in the of each section of the bill a. II
! no vote had been taken and should allow the Gov
eminent TO closure every of the debate whether
the clause in question had been discussed or not
| Mr. Chambcrlains plan has been approved by the
other Unonist leaders. Their object obviously Is TO
| proclaim to the country that number OF clauses
| have been forced through without debate and TO eX
plot this so-called Gadstonan tyranny as an irri
| tant among the British voters.

| Ministerialsts however, not apprchenSivo The
| decrease has been due merely TO passing causes
which have made necessary the absence Of dozen or
more Gadstonians from the House. The near pros
meet of split in the Irish party on the financial
| clauses Is a much more serious matter. frn' tll'
