Parliament Meets.

LONDON, Oct, 17.-Parliament open
ed in extraordinary session today to
consider the South African situation.
In the speech from the throne Her
Majesty said: "My Lords and Gentle
men Within very brief period after
the recent propagation l am compelled
by events deeply affecting the interests
of my empire to recur to your adviceand
aid. The state of aft airs in South Africa
has made it expedient that my govern.
ment should be enabled to strengthen
the military forces of this country by
calling out the reserve. For this pur-
pose the provisions of law render it
necessary that Parliament should be
called together. Except for the diff
culties that have been caused by the
action of the South African republic
our relations with the world continues
to be peaceful"
"Geutlemen of the House of Com
mons:-Measures will be laid before
you for the purpose of providing ex-
caused by the events in South Africa.
Estimates for the ensuing year may be
submitted to you in due course"
Henry Labouchere, the liberal men,
Der from Northampton, will move an
amendment to the address in reply TO
the speech from the throne in favor of
arbitration in the Transvaal embroglio
even at this late date. John Redmond,
the Parnellite member for Waterford
will move an amendment protesting
against war.
Patrick O'Brien, the Parnellite mem
Der from Kilkenny, expressed the hope
that the Irishmen in the British regi.
ments, instead of firing on the Beers,
would fire on the Englishmen. He re-
ferred to similar declarations made by
Michael Davitt, the nationalist member
for South Mayo, and William Redmond
