The early evening was passed in the
house of commons in giving notices OF
motions. Notice that Mr.. Gladstone
would introduce his home rule bill ON
next Monday ELECTED prolonged cheers.
George Lambert, Liberal for the
South Moulton division of Devonshire,
rose to move the address. He spoke to
empty benches, as did also Mark Beau
frey, Liberal for Kenning division of
Lambeth, who seconded the motion.
MIR. Balfour Talks.
The house filled like magic, however,
when Arthur J. Balfour, first lord OF
the treasury in the last Salisbury cabi-
net, and now leader of the Unionist
opposition, arose somewhat languidly,
and amid storm Of opposition cheers,
began in a sneering tone a general Criti-
cism Of tine government. He denounced
the eviCted tenants commission as so
unfairly constituted that they were in
capable Of presenting trustworthy re-
port. He demanded that the home sec
retary should say whether or not the re-
lease Of Egan and Callan, the Irish
dynamlters, was part of a policy OF
amnesty intended to involve the release
of all the Irish dynamiters, and he
charged Mr.. Morley, Irish secretary,
with having used the crown preroga-
tive for political purposes.
Mr. Gladstone was cheered loudly
when he rose to answer Mr.. Balfour. He
preached Mr.. BalfOur for assailing with
infammatory criticism bill not yet in
troduCed and for doing his utmost to pre-
judice the minds Of his followers against
a plan of home rule Of which he was
still ignorant.
In conclusion Mr.. Gladstone repeated
his appeal to the house not to be moved
by premature denunCiatiOns Of the home
rule bill. 1t surely would be better for
all to wait and give the provisions of
the bill their full, careful, deliberate,
perhaps calm, impartial, even benevo-
| lent judgment.
After Mr.. Gladstone's speech the house
| adjourned.
