p. m. Lord Salisbury rose to deliver the
last speech in opposition to the home rule
bill. The house was crowded as well as
oil the approaches. Lord Salisbury was
loudly cheered when he arose. In the
course Of his speech he said:
.The proposed retention Of Irish meme
bers in the commons is an outrage so enor-
nous and grotesque that / am surprised
any responsible government dared suggest
il. ICheers All the arguments OF the
government showed that their policy was
one Of despair. They had no right TO take
a step which endangered the existence,
happiness and prosperity Of the Irish peo-
pie. The men who would govern Irefand
should the bill pass are those WIN have
been found guilty of criminal conspiracy.
Should we not Be in an infinitely worse
position than at present il We entrusted
Ireland 20 such men in the event of
trouble with tho United States or any
other foreign power7 Loud cheers. IL
you allowed this atroeious, treacherous
bill to pass you would be untrue to the
duty which has descended TO you from q
splendid ancestry"
The Earl of Kimberly spoke for the bill
on behalf Of the government. and divi-
sion was taken, resulting $40 against the
bill and Al for IL.
In the street an immense crowd awaited
the announcement of the result of the
division. A strong detachment of police
mingled with the crowd and were drawn
up in front Of the entrance to the building.
When the result finally reached the peo-
pie il was received with vociferous cheer
ing. An analysis of the vote shows that
twenty-five bishops and archbishops who
were present at the division voted with
the majority. The vote was the largest
ever recorded in the house OF lords.
