London, July 21.-The debate on the
evicted tenants bill in the House of Com
mons last night would have been closured
but for the intervention of the speaker,
who has rarely so exercised bis preroga-
tive. The fact was not generally known
at the time, but the speaker privately in
formed Sir William Harcourt that he
would not give his assent to closure, in
view Of the important issues raised
by the measure, which merited
full and free discussion. The
leaders of the opposition have assented
to an early division and an understanding
has been arrived at, whereby division
will be taken on Monday. Upon entering
the committee stage the bill will be
fought, line by line, and this will occupy
at least a month, notwithstanding the
fact that Sir William Harcourt has al
lowed only few days to carry the meas
ure through to its final passage.
All expectation that the programme of
the government will be carried into effect
by the end of August has already van
ished. When the evicted tenants bill is
passed, the other measures mentioned by
the chancellor of the exchequer, in his
speech outlining the governments pro-
gramme, must either be thrown over
board, unless the House must ontinue to
sit indefinitely. Some of the most promi-
nent members of the ministry are exceed
ingly wroth over the prospect and declare
that they will sit until Christmas if
necessary to carry out the governments S
policy,
PLANS OF THE PARNELLITEs.
The Parnellites will seek to secure a
political point over the evicted tenants
bill by moving amendments, the accept
ance of which Is very improbable, yet
which is calculated to strengthen the
! position of that faction of the Irish party
in Ireland. The bill in its present shape,
| provides for the reinstatement of an
| evicted tenant only when the farm from
which he was evicted is occupied and the
| landlord OF sitting tenant is willing
| to move II compensated for vacat-
! ing. The Parnellites propose the
| VI dEulbEdbOTS VINO Sudll Do
empowered to reinstate evicted tenants
under any uircums stances, including the
compulsory removal of sitting tenants.
Mr.. John Morley's tactics are evinced by
! his selection of three arbitrators, who,
all sides agree, will form a thoroughly
impartial tribunal. Judging from the
tone Of the tory press, the rejection of
| the bill by the House of Lords, despite it's
generally admitted merits, remains as
sured.
ABOLITION OF THE LORDS.
Lord Salisbury's specific denial that
he. as the opposition leader in the House
| of Lords, intends to secure the rejection
| of the budget bill by that body, has not
had the effect to remove general expec-
tation that the lords will make some
demonstration in support of the rights of
the peers 10 deal with bills appropriating
money. The Duke of Rutland has written
letter in which he declares that the
peers can reject or alter any financial
projects they may see fit, and the matter
summed up, all that can be said is that if
the peers insist on altering the bill a disso-
luton is inevitable, and general election
pivoting upon the principle of the aboli-
| tion of the lords equally certain.
RosEBERRY's LOSSES ON THE TURF.
Lord Roseberry's losses through the
two successive defeats of his derby win
ner horse, Ladas, are reported to aggre-
gate something like 100000.
Sir William Harcourt, in closing his
speech on the financial clauses of the
budget bill last night made a grim and
decidedly unfrieudly allusion to this fact,
by innuendo, in response to Wal
ter Long. The latter gentleman in
| the course of his argum ent asserted
that increased taxation would cause
wealthy landlords, with a view of saving
49, ~
and dismiss their laborerS. "Why" said
Sir William, amid the delighted cheers of
the opposition, that is an extrayagant
statement. Don't we know the case of q
man of large fortune losing more than
that in a single afternoon on the race
| course2 Why that sum is merely the
price of moderate two-year-old."
The remark greatly pleased the opposi-
tion members, but no signs of approval
were apparent among the liberals, what
ever they may have thought.
BIMETALLIsTs BUSY.
The committee, composed of bimetal-
list members of the House of Commons,
have arranged TO send representatives to
every constituency in Great Britain, to
impress upon the electors the advisabihty
of nominating candidates for parliament
upon platform of bimetallism.
The leaders of the Irish party calcu-
lated thab twenty nine seats Will be con-
tested at the next election, including the
seven seats now occupied by unionists. II
the evicted tenants bill passes the House
of Lords the larger part of the Paris fund
will be released to assist the party in the
next election. Otherwise the party
purse will be subjected to heavy strain
wEsLEYANs AND THE WOMEN.
The leading question before the Wes-
leyan conference is that of the admission
of women as delegates, which will be de-
cided at the sitting of Monday. The
question is raised by the application for
the admission of Miss Dawson, who has
been elected to represent the Bir-
mingham synod in the conference
upon the question. There is a
serious division of opinion. The
elders and more conservative delegates
oppose the admission of women, holding
that the innovation is illegal and against
all precedent here or In the United States,
but verysconsiderable section OF the del
egates favor the Immediate recognition Of
the work and influence of women by their
admission. The case of Miss Dawson
will probably be referred 10 a committee.
