from North Armagh would not dare to
use such terms outside the house."
The Speaker-Tne chair cannot put
the motion offered by the honorable
member from East Mayo.
The clamor among the Irish Nation
aistS continued, and seemed to be gain
ing in energy of expression when MIR.
Gladstone arose. AS the premier began
to speak, all became silent, and all list
ened with attention to his words.
NEr. Gladstone Spoke
earnestly and with deep feeling. He
wished the Irish Nationalist to restrain
themselves. Surely" said MIR. Glad
stone, 1.-The honorable member from
North Armagh will refrain from calling
a gentleman held by many in the
highest respect a murderous ruff
sign of yielding even to
the premier. Then Mr.. Balfour, the
Conservative leader and chief secretary
for Ireland, arose and said: 81 appeal
to the honorable member to withdraw
the expression and substitute that of
excited politician.
Then Col. Saunderson, obedient to the
voice of his his leader, said slowly and
deliberately: Il accept the suggestion
and withdraw the expression for that
mentioned by the right honorable mem
Der from East Manchester" The tumult
ceased, but Col. Saunderson did not
subside. He proceeded TO attack MIR.
Gladstone for attempting to establish
Roman Catholic ascendency in Ireland.
The priests, Col. Saunderson said, had
grabbed political power, and never in
tended to relax their grasp. The public
parliament. If established, would be a
slave to the priesthood.
Attacked the Government.
After the Saunderson episode there
was succession of. uninteresting speak
erS, and the number of members in the
house gradually dwindled. At length,
however, Joseph Chamberlain arose.
and there was an immediate rush
OF members back TO their seats.
Mr.. Chamberlain, in opening his
speech. charged the government with
shifty evasion In refraining from giving
any declaration on points of dispute.
He wanted clear statement from the
government OH subject that was not
even indicated in the queens speech.
But could the government give
it? He predicted that the Lib
erals, even If now harmonious, would
soon show signs of dissonance.
He then proceeded to, comment upon
the release of the Irish dynamiters. He
held that Mr.. Morley, in a recent speech
in Leinster, had suggested the release
of the dynamiters as part of plan of
general amnesty. Mr.. Chamberlain
expressed himself as certain that
there would be rupture among
the home rulers over the bill
and he hoped that the government
would now declare whether it was pre-
pared to sustain the supremacy of the
imperial parliament i'll the act or was
about to surrender to the forces of dis
loyalty and disorder.
Morley Answers.
After a number of minor speakers
had been heard. MIR. Morley, chief sec
rotary for Ireland, rose, and was greeted
with loud cheers. He described Mr..
Chamberlain'S utterances Oh the coun
try's foreign affairs as malicious and
mischievous. He said that Mr.. Chamber
lain had also made distorted illusions
to the Irish dynamlters. With ref
ercnce to the refusal of the Irish gov
eminent to assist III leyying Writs at
night, Mr. Morley urged, in spite of
the judgment given in Dublin yester-
day legalizing night levies, that uman-
ity and policy ought to stop them.
Irish cheers In defending the
evicted tenants commission Nh Morley
admitted that the commission sympa-
thized with the Nationalist. but it was
not appointed, he said, to try political
questions. Nothing short of a small
commission of arciiangelS would satisfy
both parties. He had the authority of
the attorney general to deny the state
ment of Mr.. Balfour that at the
trial j., of the men of Gweedore
facts were suppressed which would
have sent all the prisoners to the gal
lows. There was in his public life no
act on which he could look back with
greater satisfaction than the release of
these men. In conclusion, MIR. Morley
eXhorted the opposition not to commit
the crime of wishing and working for
the failure of the governments policy
towards Ireland. The house then ad-
iOurned.
