GAS ACROSS THE RIVER.
Alexandria County to Be Piped in
Short Time.

Action taken by the board of super
visors of Alexandria county, Va, last
evening insures a supply of gaslight in
the near future for the residents Of the
county from Rosslyn to Clarendon.
The citizens of the community are
pleased with the idea that within a rea-
sonable period they will be reading by
gaslight instead of kerosene, and that
they will also be able to do their cooking
by gas.
The board of supervisors of Alexandria
county has granted a permit for the in
PRODUCTION of gas into it's territory. The
Mackall as president of the Rosslyn
Electric and Gas Company, Incorporated
at Richmond three months ago with a
capital stock Of $4,000 A franchise has
been granted the company by the Vir-
ginia legislature.
The company has concluded a contract
with the United Gas Improvement Com
pany of Philadelphia for laying the
mains and erecting the gas-making plant
In the event that the new plant Is not
completed within eight weeks, according
to the terms Of the contract, an arrange
ment has been effected whereby the gas
will be piped across the Aqueduct bridge
by the Georgetown Gaslight Company
and the space between the point where
the pipe now running over the bridge
ends and the Rosslyn gas main begins will
be spanned with a temporary main ex
tending about three hundred feet.

The house cleared for division at 11:3O

in no sense exciting, except that the
house was packed to its utmost capacity.

on the benches owing to the presence Of
numbers of peers who only appear in the

would have supposed that the event pre-

The vote was on Lord Lansdowne's
amendment that the house was not JUS

until 1t had been submitted to the judg-

all taxes on one bill. It was idle to pre-
tend that such change Of procedure by
the house of commons could affect one
iota the responsibilities and duties of the
second chamber. He quoted Premier As
quith as stating, on assuming the pre-
miership, that the function of the house
of lords was to check slovenly and pre-
cipitate legislation. and this, he thought,
fairly represented the action the lords
proposed to take.
Referring to the lacking on Of license
proposals and land valuations to the
budget, he said that, as both Of these had
previously been rejected by the house of
lords, it would destroy all the power of
the upper house if the lords were UNI
able to veto the finance bill in which
these were not now included. He as
serted that the budget had already drawn
capital from the country to an alarming
extent, had stunned the building trade
and increased unemployment
He remarked that the lords had been
told that the rejection of the bill would
cause financial chaos. but Lord Lans-
downe's offer Of assistance in order to
avoid inconvenience had not been cor
daily received by the government. There
fore. if chaos came, the responsibility
would rest upon the ministry. The peo-
pie, he concluded, could get rid of the
decision of the second chamber by an
election, but they could get rid of an
autocratic single chamber only by 4revolu-
tion

Peer Aged so Votes.

Among those peers who came down es-
pecially to vote was the Earl OF Wemyss
and March, who is in his ninety second
year.
After the vote had been announced the
Earl of Crewe moved an adjournment,
and the house rose.
An eager and eXpectant crowd was
awaiting the result in the central hall.
and when the figures of the vote became
known there was a slight attempt at
counter demonstrations. The officials,
however, speedily cleared the hall and I'm
few minutes the Hobbies and precincts
were empty.

Last Plea for Budget.

The Earl of Crewe, secretary of state
for the colonies, closed the debate In
speech frequently interrupted by minis
terial cheers. The sum total of the long
debate, he declared was that the opposl-
ton considered the governments method
of raising money was illusory, and that
that justified revolution.
Turning to the charge that since the
Introduction OF the budget capital was
leaving the country and there had been
a serious fall in securities. he admitted
that capital was t!mid. and that some
people had been induced to sell British
securities and invest abroad. But that
who wished to bring about what they
protested to deplore The industrial con-
Germs OF Great Britain had not found
dificulty in securing and keeping all the
money necessary for their requirements.
Nobody questioned the power of the
lords to reject the bill, he continued, but
it would be a violation OF established
usage The effect would be that In franz
ing financial proposals in the future the
government would have to consider
whether they would receive the concur
renee of the houses Of lords. 1t would
i'm fact, involve something like bur-
lesque of representative government. In
tearing up ancient charters and removing
landmarks the lords were making most
tragic biunder. For many years the two
houses had logged along as acquaintance.
but after tonight the two houses would
barely be on speaking terms. II the
lords thought that any of the ministeri-
aiists welcomed the crisis they were en-
tirely mistaken.

His Maiden Speech.

The Archbishop of York's speech was
his maiden effort In the house of lords
and its eloquent periods, added to Dr.
Lang's fine presence and beautiful voice
made a deep impression.
The archbishop was the first speaker
He said that he would have to take a po-
sition somewhat different from that of
the primate, and that II he voted he would
vote against Lord Transformers amend
ment. He had not heard arguments SUI
ficiently persuasive to prove to his salts
faction that the budget was bad enough
to justify the unprecedented course pro-
posed by Lord Lansdowne. The peers
would be judged, he thought, not by their
intentions but blythe ir performance, and.
no matter what they said, it would be un-
derstood that in refusing supplies for the
year they had rejected the budget
The constitutional question, the arch
bishop declared. was one which would
profoundly stir the people of the country,
and many persons would prefer the pass
Ing of a bad budget to tampering with
the fundamental principle of the constitu-
ton. The question was whether the lords
were competent, apart from the preroga-
tive of the crown. to dissolve parliament
or to compel the house of commons to
pass a budget not its own, but one &C.
ceptable to the lords. The effect Of the
amendment proposed would be to endan-
ger the existence of the second chamber,

Archbishop's Warning.

Though Lord Curzon of Kedleston had
sufficiently recovered from his recent in
disposition to be able to address the
house in favor of Lord Lansdownes mo-
ton, the feature of the days oratory was
a speech by the Archbishop of York. His
tall figure was robed in white, and his
clean-shaven face made him look like a
stalwart boy. He declared that he had
no fear of the cry of socialism, and that
the budget was not bad enough to justi-
fy the unprecedented amendment moved
by Lord Lansdowne. He extended a
warning hand toward the unionist peers
and babe them note the handwriting on
the wall.
This was only one of the several ref
erences made to the policy of Mend 'em
or end EN- which few advanced radi-
calls are hoping to make the dominant
issue of the coming electoral campaign.
But probably more correct note was
sounded by Lord Crewer. when in con-
Guiding the debate for the government
he intimated that the liberals could not
take Office again without guarantees Of
security against adverse action by the
lords; the guarantees, If necessary. to be
laid down by statute. Such a statute
prescribing the limits of the power of the
house of lords, it is apparent, would be
more easily drawn up than a scheme Of
tariff reform.

Revolution, Says Curzon.

Lord Curzon, in supporting Lord Lans-
downe's amendment, objected to the as
sertion that the budget bill was an in
strument of social reform. Neither side
of the house, he said had a monopoly
of the desire to ameliorate social evils
There were two pressing questions The
first was whether the nation was safe
and the other whether the people were
sound. But neither question could be
settled by taxation.
The speaker said he could not give
place either to the socialism of the bill or
the revolution involved in an assault ON
the house of lords. The lords had no
right to surrender their position. If they
did so nothing would stand between the
people and the house of commons. He
strongly deprecated the suggestion that
England would accept a single chamber
system like that of Bulgaria and Greece
He agreed that the country was on the
eve of momentous struggle which might
| lead to the reform of the house of lords,
but they would not shrink from contest
which would give the nation a second
chamber with strength denied themselves
| He hoped that his own party might be
| the one to achieve this object.
