LONDON, June lG.-The mutual conces-
sions which have been made In the In
terest Of the passage OF the budget by
the House OF Commons by the end OF
the first week In July have greatly
relaxed the tension OF the opposing
paities in Parliament. Nevertheless tho
Government whips heartily wish that tho
coming anti-Lords conference which is
TO be held in Leeds. were over. as a
great many Liberal members OF Parlia-
ment Rave promised to take part In The
conference, but the opposition members
refuse to pair with them for the oeca-
sion, and IT will be a dangerous matter
for the Liberal party In Parliament TO
be caught mapping. II pairs cannot be
arranged, n good many Liberal members
must refsain away fom the conference.

greatest importance. II the conference IN
