B i l l in th e H o u » e o ! L o rd s .The Crime

Lo n d o n , July 14.—In the House of Lords this afternoon. Baron Ashbourne, Lord Chancellor lor Ireland, moved a sec­ond reading of the crimes bill. In mating the motion he described the bill as a meas­ure intended to counteract the criminal, demoralising system of intimidation now- reigning in Ireland, a system of coercion of loyal people that interfered with every re­lation of life. Neither sex nor age are spared from this odions. rerocious tyranny. It was a slander upon trades unions to ompare them with the tyrannical leagues,

and it was absolutely startling to hear Gladstone cloak the abominable system of boycotting under the euphonism o f‘'ex­clusive dealing."

Lari Granville said he would not deny that the government, unding itself unable to maintain law and order under existing measures, had the right to apply to par­liament for further powers, but when re- »trictions were proposed suspending com- ! mon personal rights, the closest proof was . re-.mred to justify such an exceptional law. The state of Ireland was as peaceable now as in 1585, when the ordinary law Jwas tound sufficient. Everybody knew that the real aim of the bill was to suppress combinations that interfered with the policy of the government and brand them as illegal. The opposition having done its utmost to resist the passage of the bill, must place upon the government the re­sults.

The Duke of Argyle. Lord Camavon and others spoke, and the bill was then read a second time.

The measure w.11 be discussed in com­mittee to-morrow.

Iri»h Land Bill Amendment». London. July 1-.—Lord Hartington had

an interview to-day with W. H. Smith on the amendments to the land bill. The meeting resulted in Smith s acceptance oi the proposals of the Liberal-L nionists. Lord Salisbury at the reunion of the Con­servatives to-morrow will announce the extent of the concessions.

Sir William Harcourt, speaking at a met ting of the National Liberal Federa­tion to-day, congratulated the party on preserving such admirable spirits, though in a minority, while the government majority were dismayed and discomfitted. in the recent elections there were only two parties on the slate—Liberals and Tories. The Unionist masqueraders must either re­join the Liberals, as Trevelyan had done, or follow Göschen into the Tory ranks. The Liberals had one chief and one obiect. and their hopes of victory were near.

The Crim es B ill.London, July 15.—The crimes bill was

di^nssed in committee in the House of Lords to-night. Lord Northbrook. Liberal expressed surprise at the summary dis­posal of the debate on the bill yesterday. Before proceeding further with the Irish legislation he urged the party leaders to give the country a definite answer on four points : Were the Irish members to re­main in Westminster r Was the province of Ulster to be treated separately from the rest of Ireland .* Was the dnty to main­tain law and order to be entrusted to an Irish parliament .* Was the power over the land to be committed to an Irish parlia­ment?

Lord Eoeeberry. Liberal, held that the discussion of these points was outside of the scope of the crimes bill. The Liberal peers were in 3 hopeless minority and could do no more than protest against the bill. In conclusion he said that he felt bonnd to warn the government of the effect of the measure. This administration in Ireland would have to be continued in a state of siege.

After iurfher brief discussions the bill j was passed in committee without an amendment. The bill will be read a third time Monday.

Lo n d o n , July IS.—A Bine Book has been published giving the particulars of the Egyptian mission of Sir De Wolff and the text of the Egyptian convention. The dispatches show that the Italian and Aus­trian representatives at Constantinople cor­dially assisted the British commissioner throughout, and that Lord Salisbury thanked both governments for their friendly services. The French ambassador, it ap­pears. protested that France could in no way take part in the negotiations.

Nelidoff. the Russian ambassador, in­formed the representative of Great Britain at an early stage of the negotiations that Russia's policy in regard to Egypt was to maintain the Sultan s sovereignty and pre­vent its being infringed. Russia regards the statu ipto with less disfavor than the convention scheme.

Lord Salisbury, in his dispatches to the Sultan, effusively thanked him for approv­ing of the convention, which he said would

j powerfully uphold the integrity of the Turkish Empire.

In reply he said : “If Ishould follow my heart's impulse I should hasten to Bulgaria and put myself at the head of the nation, but the prince elected ruler of Bulgaria must respect treaties. I hope to justify the Porte s confidence and obtain the consent of the powers. and in time to regain Rnssia's sympathy, to which Bulgaria owes her freedom. I hope to prove my devotion to Bulgaria when the moment comes."

L o n d o n , July 13.—The Tune» corres­pondent at Vienna has had an interview with Prince Ferdinand, of Saxe Coburg Gotha. The Prince said he h3d not heard whether he would go to St. Petersburg to personally request Russia's recognition of his election to the Bulgarian throne. He would not allow himself to be enticed into any course that would be likely to further estrange Russia and Bulgaria.

King Milan, of Servia. in an interview with the same correspondent, expresses the belief that Russia would never sanction the occupancy of the Bulgarian throne by Prince Ferdinand. Alluding to the idea of the federation of Servia and Bulgaria un­der himself, King Milan said he was w ill­ing to enter into such a project, but only under Turkey's protection.
