LONDON, Sept. 1.-The house of COM
mons agreed this afternoon to suspend the
10 o'clock rule TO- night in order that the
third reading Of the home rule bill might
be concluded before adjournment. Justin
MCCARTHY, leader Of the anti-Parnellites,
was the first speaker. He said that the
bill contained fnality in principle. When
Ireland should get her parliament 1t would
include fnslity in the true sense of the

ance against Great Britain.

and It's treatment of vital interests of the
country as mere incidents Of the Newcastle
program will not be forgotten nor forgiven
by the British democracy" Prolonged
Unionist cheers followed.

The Irish members have never
yet produced a practical proposal likely to
be of permanent value.
John Morley, chief secretary for Ireland,
defended the bill.
The time having arrived for the reading
If the bill, the speaker formally put the
notion and ordered a division of the
house.
Mr.. Gladstone was the first to record his |
7ote and Mr.. Morley WAS the last. Each |

notion 80; against 267.
When the figures were announced the |
IRISH members sprang to their feet and |
heered wildly, waving hats, handkerchiefs |

aised counter cheers of ''resignl" ere

The house then adjourned.
