The Reported " age of the Homerule
Bill Reached Earlier Than Expect

The Reported 8 age of the Homerule
Bill Reached Earlier Than Expect
ed.
London, Aug. There was consider
able excitement among the conservative
members who were present at the open
ing Of to-day's session of the House of
Commons. The report stage of the home
rule bill was reached at an earlier hour
than was expected, and Mr. Balfour, the
conservative leader, had an important
amendment. Mr.. Balfour's proposed
amendment is intended TO pre-
vent the Irish members who shall be
retained in the imperial pS<liament from
voting on any questions except motions
that are offered to amend the home rule
bill, after that bill shall have become a
law. The conservatives were exceeding
ly desirous Of having the amendment, and
George BARLEY, conservative, requested
TO be permitted bo act as his substitute in
Offering the amendment.
The speaker ruled that, at this stage,
the substitute could not be allowed.
MANY CONSERVATIVES ABSENT.
A number of conservatives who had ex-
pected that there would be q prolonged
debate on Mr. Balfour's proposed clause
had taken advantage Of their expectations
TO absent themselves, intending to be
present when notified that vote was
about to be taken upon MIR. Balfour's
proposal. BY their absence they also
lost the chance of moving amendments to
the bill.
Among those. who had important
amendments TO offer, but who were alb
sent, were Sir Julian Goldsmid, Viscount
Welmer, Edward Henage and Gen. Colds
worthy. A search was made for them,
but they could not be found.
A number of new clauses were then pro-
posed by other members of the opposition,
but the speaker ruled them out on the
ground that due noticed had not been given
of their submission, or that the proposals
did not comply with the rules of the
house.
THE UNIoN1sTs FRIGHTENED.
The unionists stood aghast as they saw
the report sweeping through with light
ming speed. Their fright was allayed,
however, when James Parker Smith, the
liberal unionist, after having eight new
clauses,a proposed by him, ruled out,
obtained the speakers sanction TO
move that the boundary commission
under the bill be instructed to inquire as
to the better division Of Irish electoral
districts. The debate on this motion was
taken up and this gave the opposition
time TO breathe The conservative and
liberal unionists' whips were at once dis
patched IN search of absentees to summon
them to immediate attendance at the
House. Messrs. Balfour and Henage, and
other members Of the opposition appear
ed in the House TO take part in the de-
bate on MIR. Smiths motion.
Eventually the motion was defeated by
a vote of 1876 to 152.

oHIo's DEMOCRATS.
The State Convention to be Held at
Cincinnati This Week.

The State Convention to be Held at
Cincinnati This Week.
Cincinnati, Aug. 1.-THE great week for
the democracy of Ohio begins with de-
lightfully cool weather, promising com
fort TO the 800delegates who will assemble
in convention on Wednesday. But even if
the thermometer should rise before that
time they will find ample space in the
cool corridors and the great audito-
rum OF the music hall for the
comfortable transaction OF their business.
Coming as this convention does, almost
coincident with the meeting Of congress
and its expected revelation OF the policy
of the administration upon at least the
financial situation, there is an absence of
speculation concerning the features of
the platform to be announced. There is
general understanding that the platform
must conform to the tone of the Presi-
dents message, and as the latter has pre-
cedence of publicity the confirmation may
easily be accomplished.
ALSO AFFECT THE GUBERNAToRIAL Fight.
The same facts embarrass to some ex-
tent the canvass for governor II the
tariff feature of the message should not
come fully up to the Chicago platform on
that subject, then it would seem bad
policy to put the author Of that plank
Larry L. Neal-at the head of the ticket.
AS the matter now stands Mr.. Neal
has to share the support with G. W.
Baker of this city, and Col. w. A. Tay-
lor Of Columbus, apparently next in favor
What changes may be wrought by cir
cumstances and by consultations no one
can foretell 1t is certain that the con
veution will be most warmly welcomed
and the delegates, especially the brethren
Of the pres5, will be Hospitality enter
tained.

bers of the rules committee before the

SILVER FROM INDIA.
An Obstacle to Imports of Manufao-

An OBSTACLE TO Imports OF M&nufao-
tured Articles Into England.
London, Aug. In the House of Lords
to-day the Earl of Northbrook, for some
time Governor-General of India, called
the attention of the house to the existing
obstacles TO the Importation of manufac-
tured silver from India, arising from the
compulsory hall marking law in England.
The abolition Of the hall mark law in
England, together with free trade, in ar
ticles manufactured from silver, would,
he declared, mitigate the evil brought
about by the stoppage of free coinage.
The Earl OF Kimberly, secretary of
state for India, admitted that it was de-
sirable to change the law. Silver
manufacturers, in England, were,
however. opposed to the aboli-
ton Of the law compelling their goods
to bear hall mark. He saw no reason
why the various standards of manufac-
tured silver ought not to exist in Eng
land the same as in other countries
