Night Debate.


Night Debate.
London, March THE debate on the
suspension Of some of the Irish men,
bers was resumed in the House of Com
mons to-day. In expectation of excit-
ing scenes the galleries were crowded.
The speaker, Mr.. Gully, announced that
he had received letter from Mr.. Jor-
dan to the effect that he had not defied
the authority Of the chair (when num-
ber Of Irish members Of parliament were
removed from the house by force Tues
day., and, on motion of Mr.. Dillon, Mr..
Jordan's name was removed from the
list of suspended members. Mr.. Balfour
then moved bis amendment to the rule
governing the suspension of recalcitrant
members. This amendment provides
for suspension of any member for the
rest of the parliamentary term. Lord
Hugh Cecil, conservative, moved an
amendment providing that recalcitrant
members should be imprisoned.
This was opposed by Mr.. Balfour,
who pointed out that it would place too
much responsibility upon the govern
ment, and Lord Hugh Cecil wished to
withdraw the amendment, but the Irish
members insisted upon continuing the
discussion of it.
Several passionate speeches were
made, and the scene was one of great
excitement. Finally having forced a
division by shouting aye" when the
speaker put the question, the Irish
members joined the rest of the house
in the mo" lobby, the result being that
no one voted for the amendment of
Lord Hugh Cecil and 426 voted against
it. Thus an incident which had raised
much bad blood ended amid peels of
laughter. Several Intellectual attempts
We're then made to adjourn the debate.
Mr.. Balfour appealed to the house to
arrive at decision before adjournment,
and the debate went on. At 4:30 a. m.
he moved cloture on motion for ad-
journment, but the motion was rejected
and the debate resumed.
$50 A, M.~-Under cloture an amend
ment by Mr.. Labouchere to make the
term of suspension two months was re-
jected by vote of 224 to 81. Mr.. Bal
four moved that the main question be
put, This was followed by cheers and
uproar, mingled with Irish cries of
gag" The speaker then read the new
rule and the house divided. Mr.. Bal
four's new rule was adopted by vote
of 264 to 81 The house adjourned at
$40 a. m.

Is SUPERIOR TO MARCONl'S


Evolved by Experiments by Experts of
the Agricultural Department-They
Declare 1t Radically Different from
Marcont's and of Far Greater Eiiici-
ency-N avail Men Much Interested.
Washington, March 7.-Since last
autumn the navy department has sus-
pended the experiments in the employ
n1ent of wireless telegraphy as a means
of communication between naval ves-
sells and between vessels and the shore.
While it may be true that Marconi is
coming to the United States and that
he may, while here, communicate to
the navy department some proposition
looking to the installation of his own
system Of telegraphy on our naval YES
sells, the navy department has not yet
engaged him to do so.
Rear Admiral Bradford, the chief of
the equipment bureau, has had confer
ences with some Of the most eminent
electricians in the United States as to
the availability of the wireless telegraph
for naval use
The latest proposition has been
broached by the department of agricult-
ure. Secretary Wilson, hearing that
the navy was casting about for II SER
viceabe system of telegraph, has writ
ten Admiral Bradford to notify him
that the agriculture department has
been experimenting for some time with
wireless telegraphy and has attained re-
lnarkabl results. His experts assert
positively that they have evolved a sys-
tenn radically different from Marconi's
and of far greater efficiency. The out
come will be watched with the greatest
interest by all naval men, particularly
in view of the announcement that not
only Great Britain but Germany and
other maritime powers have already IN
stituted a system of wireless plants in
their navies.

No DESIGNS ON MANCHURlA


Readily Made to British Ambassador at
st. Pctersburg--Conscnt Given for the
Publication of the ExpIaDation-The
Arose as 10 Russia's sIntonttons-No Ac-
QUESTION of Territory or Protcctorate
Sought.
London March 1.-THE government
publishes a dispatch from the British
ambassador at ST. Petersburg, Sir
Charles Stewart Scott, relating to the
assurance given February by the Rus
sian minister of foreign affairs Count
Lamsdorf, concerning the Manchurian
affair. 1t appears that the Russian
minister consented, February q, to it's
publication as accurately representing
Russias attitude in the proceedings in
Manchuria. Sir Charles Scott says in
part:
Nlodiil i|S'iiN'tCiA 81 w 1if~ si'~ -
version of what had taken place very
readily He said he had read allega-
cluded, or was engaged in concluding,
with China a convention or permanent
arrangement which would give Russia
new rights and virtual protectorate
a., l1 10
clared to be quite untrue asserting that
the only ground for the rumor must
have been the fact that the Russian
military authorities, who had been en-
gagged in the temporary occupation and
pacification Of the province, had been
directed, when reinstating the Chinese
authorities to arrange with the civil
authorities modus vivendi for the du-
ration of the simultaneous presence of
Russians and Chinese in southern Man
churia with the object of preventing
recurrence of disturbances in the vicin-
ity of the Russian frontier and of pro-
tecting the railway from the Russian
frontier to Port Arthur
Some details Of the proposed modus
vivendi were sent for the consideration
to ST Petersburg but no convention or
arrangement with the central govern
ment of China or OF a permanent char
acter had been concluded with regard
to Manchuria, nor had the emperor any
intention of departing In any way from
the assurances he had publicly given
that Manchufia would be entirely re-
stored to its former condition in the
Chinese empire as soon as circumstan-
ces admitted.
Russia was In the same position
with regard to fixing the final date for
evacuating Manchuria as the allies
found themselves in regard to the evac-
uation of Pekin and the province of
Chi Ii. When it came to final and
complete evacuation OF Manchuria
Russia would be obliged to obtain
from the central government Of China
an effective guarantee against the re-
currence of the recent attack upon her
frontier, and the destruction of her
railway, but she had no intention of
seeking this guarantee in any acquisi-
ton of territory or an actual or virtual
protectorate of Manchuria, her object
being simply to guarantee the faithful
observance in the future by China of
the terns OF the agreement which she
had been unable to fulfill during the
disturbances
The dispatch concludes by repeating
Count Lamsdorfs assurance that there
had been no alteration in the former in
ternational status of Manchuria, which
would be restored when the temporary
measures had ceased, and that
everything at Niu Chwang and else
where would be replaced in the former
position.

A THEORY ABOUT MURDER.
Statistics Show That Cruelty to AMI
mails Is a Sure Index to
BlOOdth Irs tiness.

According to an ingenious statisti-
clan who has been at work on the
subject ever since the assassination
of King Humbert of Italy, the great
est number of murders is likely to be
committed in that country in which
animals are treated with the most
cruelty. He claims, too, that compar-
atively few murders are committed in
those countries in which societies for
the protection of animals flourish.
Out of every million inhabitants, he
says, there are in England and Ire
land only 6 murderers; in Germany,
IL; in Belgium, IA; in France, 10; in
Austria, 90; in Hungary, CT; in Spain,
SO, and in Italy, 95.
These figures, he maintains, are Just
what might be expected. In no coun-
try, he says, are animals treated with
more kindness than in Great Britain
and with more cruelty than in Italy,
and the treatment accorded to them
in the other countries may fairly be
gagged according to the number of
murders committed in each.
At the same time this statistician,
who is a German and an influential
member of the Berlin Society for the
Protection of Animals, admits that
climate is considerable factor in this
matter.
