LONDON, Oct. 25.-Mchael Davitt,
Irish National member for South
Mayo, announced in the House of Com
mons to-day that he would resign to-
morrow as a protest against the Boer
war.
Mr.. Davitt denounced the jingo press,
and said that the war was for the
.meanest and most mercenary aims,
and would be known as the
greatest crime Of the century.
He declared that If he had been offered
home rule and an Irish republic he
would not have accepted them, If ac-
companied by the condition that he
vote for the war. AS a protest he
would ask to be relieved from attend
ance in the House. He had been in
the House for five years trying to OBJ
tain justice for Ireland, and he left 1t
convinced that mo cause of justice and
right would have the support of the
House unless backed by force"
Mr. Davitt's resignation was some
thing of coup de theatre, as the Pail
Mall Gazette" says that some time ago
he told his intimate friends that he
would take the first opportunity of re-
stood that Mr.. Davitt will return to
Ireland and devote himself to literary
and journalistic work.
PROCEEDINGS IN PARLIAMENT.
LONDON, Oct. 25.-During the de-
bate on the second reading of the ap-
preparation bill in the House of Com
mons to-day James II. Dalziel, Liberal
member for Kirkcaldy, expressed the
opinion that one of the greatest difficult
ties in arriving at a settlement with
President Kruger had been that, right
~ or wrongly, the President had be-
lieved Mr.. Chamberlain, the British
Secretary of State for the Colonies, and
Cecil Rhodes were identical. He add
ed that Mr.. Chamberlain had given
grounds for this belief by suppressing
kilograms. whereupon the Colonial Sec
retary tartly intervened, saying:
L have never suppressed kilograms.
] have not got them"
Mr.. Chamberlain also denied that he
had refused to see DR.. Montagu White,
the agent of the Transvaal, who, the
Colonial Secretary added, had never
applied for an audience.
The Speaker, William Court Gully,
lnterVened at this Juncture and declai ed
that all references to such matters were
out of order
The pugnaciOus spirit animating the
public has reached the legislators
Apart from the diversion created by
Mr. Davitt there was a lively scene in
the House between Gavin Brown Clark.
Radical member for Caithness, ex-agent
OF the Transvaal and Major Rasch.
Conservative member for the south
east division of Essex Mr.. Clark de-
MED Major Rasch's statement that he
CLARK was in the Boer camp at the
time Of the fight at Majuba Hill. and
characterized the assertion as a sam
pie of the misrepresentation now pre-
vailing.
Major Rasch promptly retorted that
his statement was made on the author
ity Of Mr.. Clark himself, who told him
so six years ago, adding if Mr.. Clark

President Kruger never intended to
give anything approaching equal rights
to the white race, or any acknowledg-
ment of British supremacy. War, there
fore. was inevita BILE. There has been
an enormous strain upon us. We are
called upon to bring the war to a quick
conclusion and send across the sea a
force such as no nation in history ever
before sent This is entirely due TO
the preparations which made the
Transvaal an armed camp, and which
not only secured it a defensive posi-
ton. but enabled it to take the Of
fensive against the large force now
engaged.
such a thing could not be continued
forever. We have needed permanent
force of 25,000 in South Africa. We
are told we shall lose South Africa. Our
foreign friends are convinced of 1t.
Yet they are not happy. Such pre-
dictions were made before, and We're
even current in the days of Elizabeth.
But I am not alarmed One great
Teutonic people cannot hold in subjec-
tion another great Teutonic people, but
this has never been our course. 1t is
impossible to pretend that the Dutch
at the Cape are crushed by our rule
when they have all the rights English
men possess. even in individual cases
are permitted to talk and write trea-
son. Whatever may be the result OF
the war and the premature talk OF the
result from the present war, does any
one imagine that we shall fail to do
for others what we claimed for our
selves, or refuse equal rights to the
Dutch in the Transvaal, which they
refused us?"
The House. by a vote of 224 to 2S,
passed the second reading of the ap-
preparation bill
