LONDON. July 29.-The International Socialist
Trades Congress resumed its session to-day. Up
to tho present time the Congress has done moth
ing but examine the credentials of delegates,
and OF those examined thus far only two-thirds
have been passed upon as emitting their holders
to take part in tho deliberations of the Congress.
Harmony prevailed during tho early part Of
to-day's sitting, but was broken by the
reintroduction of tho question of the ad-
mission of Anarchist delegates, who. though
nominally excluded from taking part in tho
proceedings. are actually attending the sittngs
and voting trades unionists. The whole
affair ia considered a hopeless muddle.
The French Socialist delegates to-day ex-
pressed desire to be separated from the
French Anarchists, and this gave rise to an
excited debate. which eliminated in the spokes-
man OF the American delegation crying out,
America favors the separation of the Social
lists from the Anarchists" Immediately scores
OF opponents OF the separation idea rose to their
feet. believing and shrieking in fury.
Chairman Hyndman rang his bell and called
for order amid screams of "Vive ranarchie; a
bas tyrannie." These cries were countered by
Saxon expletives, and seeing that all attempts
to restore order were useless, Chairman Hynd-
man peremptorily adjourned tho sitting. and
the delegates separated amid tho greatest up
roar.

Mr. Smith Barry has the reputation of being
one of the best and most considerate landlords

Col. Saunderson. Conservative, who is also an
Irish landlord. seconded the motion. He said
he hoped the House of Lords would. when the
bill reaches that body. modify the measure in
justice TO the landlord.
Mr.. John Redmond. Parnellite. member for
the city OF Waterford. said that the bill WAS far
short OF granting tenants their rights, but was
an installment Of justice.
Mr.. John Dillon. the leader OF the Anti-Par-
nellites. declared that as n settlement OF the
land question tho bill was a failure. but it i'm
proved tho existing law.
Mr.. Balfour, the Government leader. defended
the bill. He contended that It remedied ad-
to the roots the agitation in Ireland. The pur-
chase scheme was intended to foster desire in
tenants to become owners Of land by lessening
the pecuniary burdens attaching to the acquir-
ing of holdings.
Mr.. mith.Barry's motion to reject tho bill

Mckinley VIII BE Elected.

John Rooney, who is well known In Irish Ma
tional circles in Brooklyn and has had much ex-
perience in practical politics, was asked yester-
day, Just before he sailed for Europe on the
steamship New York: do you think Major
Mckinley will be elected1 2" Mr.. Rooney an
swered:
why. certainly. The people who are max
ing all the noise are, as always, in the minority.
The silent multitude who read and think are
those with whom tho silver cranks must reckon.
The people of this country are not going to i'm
poverish and degrade It by adopting system
Of debased currency. They will, largely ire
spective OF party. rally to the support Of Nc
Kinley. There is, In reality, no financial ques-
ton before the public. This silver craze is a
purely artificial issue. forced to tho front by q
clique OF self-opinionated cranks and unprinci-
pied politicians.
:" Mckinley will carry New York city and
Brooklyn by II large majority. and New York
state by All overwhelming majority. he will
also carry several OF the Southern States. West
Virginia. Delaware. Maryland, Kentucky. Will
the central Western States are all safe. By the

other reason than to kill forever this political
