Churchill Says Rosebery Has

Then the Former Is Characterized
as "Trumpery, Petty and

LONDON, March 19-Replying to John
Redmond, the Parnellte leader, in the
House of Commons TO-DAY, John Morley,
Chief Secretary for Ireland. referring to
the provisions OF the evicted tenants
bill. and whether it will be the first meas
ure proceeded with, said It would not be
the first measure put forward. and he was
unable to say when it would be proceeded
with. The registration of voters bill
would be the first measure which the CIV
eminent would ask Parliament to pass
upon.
L ri Randolph Churchill came to the
front again to-day by making motion
that Lord Rosebery had infringed upon
the liberties and privileges of the House of
Commons by concerning himself with the
election of member of the House of Com
mons through his speech made at Edin-
burgh on Saturday. This speech, accord
ing to Lord Churchill. mus have influence
upon the pending election at Lratnv. Con-
tinuing Lord Randolph asserted that Lord
Rosebery had evaded the rule which pre-
cludes the Premier from intervening in
the election OF members of the Commons
Sir William Harcourt. the Chancellor of
the EXchrquer and Liberal leader in the
House of Commons, said that as Lord
Randolph had not proposed thai Lord
Rosebery should be called to the House
he could not understand what course Lord
Randolph wanted the house to take.
Thereupon Lord Randolph said that he
in ended his motion as a protest against
Lord Rosebery's action.
Sir William Rarcourt remarked that
there were abou 500 opposition peers who
were constantly interfering in elections.
He himself had no complaints to make for
speeches which had greatly Influenced
elections. He referred, undoubtedly, to
the prelates. who are members of the House
of Lords. He then classed Lord Church.
ilPs motion as being "lrumpery, petty and
contemplate" and contradiction of his
own defense when accused of breach of
prIvi ge in 1887, for lending carriages to
be used at crrtain session. course which
was used at the same time and place by
Lord Salisbury.
The Right Hon. Balfour, the Conserva-
tive leader. said thai it was crucial case
which would decide the doctrine as TO
whether peer had the right to take part
in the elections The speaker, continuing,
said that he had watched with interest the
Governments desire to extend the privi-
leges of peers. [Laughter.l
Finally the House adopted Sir William

glorious end. II was pretty plot, and in
it were invo.ved a number of prominent
citizens and a company of National
Guards. Had the conspirators had COM
mon sense they would have succeeded in
carrying out their plans.
The details of the plot were worked out
on Friday night. The citizens, with arms
under their coats, were to 90 Monday
morning to the San Sento. Conceiaco and
Sande Hills. gsrrisoned by the Govern
ment The officers there were in the plot,
and were to admit them and join them
with as many of their soldiers as they
could persuade TO do so. The other sol
diers were To be overpowered or killed.
The rebel feet at the first shot or at
given signal was to hurry in and land the
men to help tie plotters. Their total force
would be somewhat over 1000 men. 1t
would occupy strong position and would
probably be rapidly Increased by vnlun-

strictly business. To the exuherant Bra

Ergo, they might as we'll boast about it.
So they did. Nearly every conspirator
went about telling his friends that the

the revolution was TO be successful. The
British, who are very in innate with the
rebels, were, oil course, not fed, and the
two principal banks went so far as to post
notices informing their clerks that they
need not come to business on Monday as
there was going to be heavy tiring
In less than an hour every one in the
commercial quarter knew that something

fully aware Of the conspiracy nothing was

Sunday nothing was done or said TO OBJ

only on Sunday evening, when the rebel
feet anchored close to the city, that any
action was taken. The suspected regi-

arrests of officers and citizeds were made
It. is said fifteen fficers were shot: IL so. il

WASHINGTON, March I9.-Mrs. James g.
Blaine gave dinner tonight at which the
engagement of her daughter Harriet to
TruXtoO Beale was announced formally
The idea of a marriage between these
young people is not new by any means,
and more Than two years ago rumors To
that effect were published. They were,
however, denied by near friends of both
families. Miss Blaine is the youngest
child of the late distinguished statesman,
and was his great pet and comfort in his
declining years.
Miss Blaine has had unusual advantages
ID the way of travel and naturally of asso-
citation with disIin gushed people. Owing
to the almost continuous mourning in
which the family has been for the last five
years Miss Blaine has had quiet and leisure
to pursue her studies uninterrupted for a
longer period than falls to the lot of most
young women.
Mr.. Beale is the only son Of the late Gen.
eral Edward Beale, and it is understood
he will eventually inherit a large fortune.

the insurreciion has been put down and longer
