London, Jan. 1S.-The third session of
the Fourteenth parliament of the Vic
torian era opens tomorrow by royal COM
mission, with the usual Formally.
The proposer of the address in reply to
the speech from the throne in the house
of commons will be ViscOunt Folkstone,
member of parliament for the Wilton
division Of Wiltshire, and the seconder
will be the Honorable Alfred Littleton,
member for Warwick and bennington.
In the house of lords, the Marquis of
Bath will move and Lord Kenyon will
second the address.
A stormy session is expected, in which
the fortunes OF the government are in
doubt in spite of the $50 Conservative
majority upon two questions, at any
rate: Education and the recently demon
strated financial injustice to ireland.
In the votes to be taken upon these
questions the followers Of the govern
ment of the day are split and divided IN
every direction-so much so that the gov
ernment's whips are anticipating their
hardest sessions of recent years. The
Irish question has not yet been raised in
the commons in the present shape; on
the education the government is under
specific pledges.

promising nature and position of the ne
gotiation for the arbitration of the Ven
ezuelan dispute and that the famine and
plague in India will be touched upon.

queens speech referring to the general
arbitration treaty with the United States
