he was received with deep roar OF
cheering from his opponents, paying
tribute to him as the head of the navy.
Sir Edward Gray sat with bowed
head, while a number of members who

His strongest passages commanded
more cheering from the opposition than
from his own side of the House En-
thusiasm for France and antagonism for
Germany among the Conservatives was
made plain throughout the speech. Upon

when John Redmond rose to pledge the
loyalty of Ireland to Great Britain, and
to say that the present calamity might
have one happy result. Mr.. Redmond
was given a great ovation.
