THE IRISH LAND BILL
Is Loaded Down With Amendments Which
Will Kill II

LONDON. Aug. 6.-The members of the
house of lords showed great interest today
in the committee stage of the Irish land
bill There was a larger muster of peers
present than was the case with any meas
ure since the home rule bill The debate
soon developed into a defeat of the govern
ment on Viscount Templeton's amend
ment asking that the several classes of ca ch
holding should be ascertained and that the
fair rent should be based or the assump
uon that all improvements were made or
acquired by the landlords. The marquis
of Lansdowne, secretary of state for war;
said that the government could not accept
the amendment as it would overburden the
land commissioners with minute details
and involve great expense.
The marquis of Londonderry, the earl
of Mayo. the earl of Winchelsea, the duke
of Abercorn and others supported the
amendment, which was finally adopted by
a vote of 127 to 81 amid cheers
Lord Rosebery. Earl Spencer Baron Her.
schell and the opposition peers supported
the government.
A long discussion followed on Baron Clan
curry's amendment of clause four, to ex-
clude from the operation of the bill holdings
to the value of ESQ yearly instead of e10O.
Baron Clancurrys amendment was car
ried by vote of 107 to 60, in spite of the.
government.

HUTCHINSON, Kas., Aug. 8. Thu
Democrats and Populists of Kansas hayd
practically effected a fusion of inter-
ests in the coming election. Since Tues
day last the Democratic convention hero
has waited upon the Populists at Abilene.
The Democrats held two sessions today.
The morning session was adjourned un-
til last evening, the Populists at Abilene
having at that time taken no action as
TO the proposed fusion. When the DEM
ocrats reassembled this evening word
was received from their ambassadors
at Abilene that the Populists had ac.
cepted the ticket which was agreed upon
by the Democrats for electors This
ticket which was agreed upon last Tues
day, was then formally placed in nom-
ination. The Democrats then took up
the question Of a state ticket, and there
being practically no opposition, the Pop
ulist nominee for governor, State Sena-
tor j. W. Leedy, was nominated by ac-
clamation. The other Populist nom-
inees, Frank Doster chief justice; Rev.
j. D. Botkin congressman at large, and
A. NJ. Harvey for lieutenant governor,
were cheerfully nominated. But here
the Democrats were again forced to
wait upon the convention at Abilene,
and at 1890 o'clock, no further nomina-
tions having been reported from the
Populists, the convention took a recess
until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, when
the other Populist nominees will un-
doubtedly be endorsed.

arrived in this city today. With them
We're committee of representative Los

The party was met here by General
Manager Wade of the Santa Fe and a
large number of influential citizens The
visitors were first taken to Coronado for
lunch. In the afternoon they went on
an excursion through the lemon groves
of Chula Vista and Otay.
Tomorrow they will take a trip over
the bay and they will probably leave in
the afternoon for the east.
The japanese are not disposed to talk
very freely of their plans, but from
what they have said people here believe
that if when arrived at Chicago, Presi-
dent Ripley offers them advantageous
terms for a connection with the Santa
Fe, the steamers of the Togo Kisen
Kaisha will make San Diego their Pa
