stormy Scene in Com mons.

LONDON, Aug. 7.-One of the storm
lest scenes of the present session of the
commons occurred last evening when
Burdett-Coutts, conservative member
of Westminster. demanded greater
powers for the hospital commission to
investigate the management of the
military hospitals in South Africa. He
declared that the truth would not be
learned under the present plan of in
yestigation, as the soldiers would be
afraid to testify. Arthur j. Balfour,
government leader, in the course of a
bitter reply accused Burdett-C -Coutts OF
"maligning the character of the British
army" He poured out perfect lava
tide of scorn, some of his utterances
being almost inaudible amid the din
rising from the liberal benches.
