London, Nov. Eff you win a vic- tory, it will be only temporary one; If you lose, you have prejudiced the position, power, prestige and useful ness of the house of lords, which I be- lieve every one of you honors and de- sires to serve as heartily as I do my seif''
 Balfouris Speech the Event of Last
 Nights Sitting.
 In this homely, candid fashion Lord Balfour of Burleigh gave the members of the house of lords this evening his opinion of the course they are pursu- ing with regard to the budget. He has none of the graces of oratory which Lord Rosebery possesses, but his plain, downright manner is not without effect, and his speech was the real event of todays sitting of the upper chamber. It probably will have even greater influence than that of Lord Rosebery, because Rosebery no longer holds the confidence of any party.
 Bishop of Hereford in the Debate.
 The bishop of Hereford, who inter- vened later in the debate, said that while he respected the archbishop of Cabterbury's desire that the bishops aostain from voting on the measure, he claimed the right to the exercise of independent judgment. If the bishops hiio any function to perform it was to speak for the multitudinous poor, he said, therefore he supported the bud get. which was a social welfare budget, based on sound finance. He was con- vlnced, he declared. that the country's answer to an appeal to the ballot would be in clear English that never again shall the fundamental liberties of the people be endangered by a priv ileged class. He wished that the bud get might be passed as a protection against the rapidly growing spirit of revolt among the democracy, which might become dangerous.
 Debate Adjourned to Monday.
 Many others of the peers spoke, but III or them along ordinary party lines. The debate was adjourned today until Monday, when Viscount Morley, Lord CuIzon and Lord RothschiId are ex- pected to address the house. Lord Curzon's cold, which precluded his speaking today, is better tonight.
 Many Rumors Current.
 Rumors are current tonight that the conservative leaders, seeing the dam aging effect that the speeches of Lords Cromer, Rosebery and BaIfour of Burleigh is likely to have on the conservalive cause in an election, are reconsidering their position with re- gard to the budget. But the best in- torn ation' indicates that Lord Lars- downe.s resolution against the adop- Zen of the budget will go to a division anc be carried by an enormous ma- jority.
 Great Demonstration in Parliament
 Square.
 A great pro-budget demonstration took place tonight in Parliament square and that locality. Six thou sad persons gathered for the demon stration and sang political songs and cfleered for David Lloyd George, chan eel.or of the exchequer.
