FORMER MINISTER WARNS ENG
LisA LORDS THEY HAVE
BEEN PUT IN HOLE.
LANSOOWNE PLAN FALSE
N.vsr a Time, Declares Speaker, When
Strong Second Chamber Was More
Needed Than Now-Ashborne Up
holds Right Of Upper House to Ae-
eept or Reject Budget.

London. Nov 25.--Although this was
the fourth day of the budget debate
and the absence owing to indisposi-
tion of Lord Curzon, who was to have
continued the unionist attack upon the
liberal measure, detracted somewhat
from the popular interest, there was
little falling off in attendance. The
extension of the time for debate will
give opportunity for more of the lords
to be heard and many maiden speechs
es will be made.
Lord Ashborne, who has been a
member of several unionist cabinet:
took Lord Curzon's place in reopening
the debate. so that. while many were
disappointed at the failure of the for
mer viceroy of India to speak, the
visitors heard an orator almost equal
" notable. Lord Ashborne contenoed
there was no authority on constitu-
tional history that disputed the right
of the lords to act according to their
discretion I'm rejecting or accepting
the budget.
Eaifour Attacks Budget.
Lord Baifour of Burleigh. unionist
free trader and member of the former
uniunist cabinet. in attacking the
budget, admitted that while the lords
had never in so many words surren-
dered ,heir right to interference.
usage had established that the house
of commons was supreme in matters
of finance.
Lord Balfour said a referendum was
impossible .as a matter of practice and
that he also believed the motion pro-
posed by Lord Lansdowne was un-
wise. He asserted that there never
was n time when strong and con-
servative second chamber was more
necessary and he considered ii i'm
polite to mix the question Of the de-
fense of that chamber with the taxa
tion Of food.
Lord Balfour warned the lords that
they were walking into a trap set by
their opponents and that the step ad-
vocated by Lord Lansdowne was
false alike to the interests of the
country and to the house of lords.
If you win a victory 1t will be only
temporary one: If you lose. you
have prejudiced the position. power.
prestige and usefulness of the house
of lords. which l believe everyone of
you honors and desires to serve as
heartily as l do myself" In this
homely, candid fashion Lord Balfour
told members of the house of lords
his opinion of the course they are pur-
suing with regard to the budget.
A Great Denomination.
The best information indicates that
Lord Lansdowne's resolution against
the adoption of the budget win go to
division and be carried by an enor-
nous majority.
A great pro-5udget demonstration
took place tonight in parliament
square. Six thousand persons gath
cred. sang political songs and cheered
for David Lloyd George. chancellor of
the exchequer. Fifteen hundred police
finally cleared the square.
