A HARD ROW TO HOE.
That's the Outlook for the Govern
ment.
(By the Associated Press }

London, July 24.--The government
has no intention of resigning i'm conse-
quence of Thursdays adverse vote.
This was the gist of Premier Balfour's
eagerly anticipated statement in the
House of Commons this afternoon. AL
though it had been generally recog-
niZed that such would be the decis-
ion of the premier, there was feverish
eagerness on all sides to hear the eX-
act terms of his statement. The House
was literally packed. Every gallery
available to the peers and the public
was crowded and there had not been
such an attendance of members dur
ing the life of the present Parlia-
ment.
Mr.. Balfour, who was heartily
cheered by his supporters on rising
tried the patience of his hearers some
what by a long disquistion on how
former administrations had ignored
defeats similar to that of Thursday.
He declared that such incidents had
never been regarded as ground for
resignation or dissolution and an
nounced that the government did not
propose to resign or dissolve Parlia-
ment because of Thursdays occur
renee.
The Premier said the practice would
never prevail of allowing a govern
ment united in itself and possessing
the confidence of the majority of the
House to abandon it's post merely in
consequence of such a vote.
CaIOric Begins to Pop.
Mr.. Balfour sat down without re-
ferring to the remaining business of
the session and Sir Henry Campbell
Bannerman, the Liberal leader, imme-
diately asked for an opportunity to
discuss the Premier's statement.
John Redmond, the leader of the
Irish Nationalists, took a similar line
and the heated tone of both leaders
Indicated that the government will
have to face the most determined op-
position during the remainder of the
session. Ultimately the chief govern
ment whip moved the adjournment
opened the debate with a stirring at
tack on the government.
Mr.. Redmond followed and in
few fervid phrases characterized the
Premier's action as contemplate.
The opposition for tactical reasons
deciding to abstain from a division,
the debate was unexpectedly ended
and the government motion for an
adjournment was carried without a
division.
1t is estimated that had a division
taken place the government would
have had a majority of from ninety
to one hundred. Several ConserVa-
tives made their first appearance in
the House this year.
