Special gable letter.
LONDON. July lion Thursday next
Mr.. John Morley, Chief Secretary for Ire
land, will move the second reading or the
evlcted tenants bill in the House OF Com
mons. Neither Mr.. Chamberlain nor Mr..
Balfour has the courage TO lead the op-
position against the bill. but between them
they have prepared an amendment which
they will offer. English legislation has
been sorely neglected. and II Is unde-
slrable at so late n period in the session
TO press forward any measure drafted
In the interest of an undeserving class.
After the bin is defeated, as 1t certainly
will be. a landowner measure, proposed
In committee at the instigation of Mr..
Balfour. will be presented. and after this
has been rejected by the House of Com
mons. as, Of course 1t will be, interest In
the struggle will be transferred TO the
House OF Lords. Finally the government
VIII be compelled to abandon the Dill, De-
cause OF its incongruity.
These Conservative tactics have not the
merit Of skill or originality. and in all
probability will not divert the odium of
the rejection Of the bill from the Unionist
leaders, upon whom the Tories are hope
ful Of fastening IT, and az the same time
the determination OF the Radicals 10 take
advantage of the opportunity TO prorogue
the House Of Lords Will be lntensined.
Sir William Harcourt promises TO make
a fun statement of the programme Tor the
remainder OF the session after the House
| of Commons has completed its considerS-
! ton Of the budget This will probably be
/ done on Tuesday. If at that time the
/ Chancellor Of the Exchequer fails TO an
/ nOunce that the Cabinet has decided to
/ give effect TO the resolution of the Leeds
J conference, Mr.. Iabouchere or some other
| leading Radical will demand to know the
| intentions of the government IN regard To
| the question foremost in the Radical pro-
| gramme-the attitude OF the Ministry To-
wards the hereditary body.
THE PARIS FUND.
The Irish parliamentary party are less
concerned over the prospective collapse

! markable that the factions are not satis-

THE COREAN MATTER.
No special mediation on the part Of Great
! Britain il contemplated in the COr,an us
pute between China and Japan. The Earl
| Of Kimberly. Secretary Of State for For
cigu Affairs. acting in concert with the
! governments at st. Petersburg and Wash
mgton. has been urging tn, japanese and
| Chinese governments to resort 10 peaceful
! measures to settle their difference, but
| neither Of the dsputing governments hat
| asked for formal medi1tNu, nor has the
! British government offered To undertake
! such office. The new Chinese Minister.
| KimReta Jen, has arrived in London. lie
| avows in his representative capacity the
desire Of the Chinese government 10 avoid
"a conflict with JAPAN. The japanese Min
lister expresses similar sentiments on be-
half Of his government.
The opinion Of the authorities OF the
Foreign Office IS that war between China
and Japan has been averted. but nj the
same time. n the two countries are de-
termined 10 fight. Great Britain cannot
allow Russia to intervene in the struggle
