A FARLI4 ill. TAR.Y BOIT
Seldom. if ever, has such a scene
seem enacted in a deliberative assemb-
ly' as that lately witnessed in the Brit.
sal': House of Commons. We are apt
'to attribute such ebuliitions of Warfare
'Ma the free democratic: spirit of Ameri-
aaell inssitutious—but the exhibition
lately witnessed on the floor of British
parliament has exceeded any demon -
Art tion in the annals of history either
on this or on the other side of the At-
,ntie. It was neither more nor less
than a free fight, in which insulting
— e.tns were bandied across the floor of
the House, ending in fisticuffs and per-
sonal assault and battery. Mn Glad-
stone must be held responsible for this
•unwonted scene His arbitrary appli-
>cation of the closure ou such a moment-
ous subject as the virtual dissolution
of the Imperial Union, added to which
was his provocation of Mr. Chamberlin
n his attitude towards tho Home Rule
Bt I, by denouncing him as the devil's
.-tut'ocate, was euou ;h of itself to rouse
:he passions of members of parliament.

drawn that a free fight ensued, in
which Col. Sanderson wars given a
Mack eye and two Irish members had
their hats smashed. In fact there was
.a general melee, in which it is difficult
Wo say which was the most culpable
arty. There were cries of "gag,"
"`gas," from the Unionists—and shouts
az`execration, curses, and hideous veils
loceeded from various parts of the
louse until the uproar became unman-
ageable. At length Mr. Gladstone,pale
with horror, interposed by sending a
sturdy Liberal (Mr. Majolibanks) to
quell the riot. When peace was finally
restored, several Conservative members
rose and pointing to the Premier, said'
"There sits the author of all this trou-
ble." Doubtless such scenes will con-
tribute to make the Home Rule Bill a
'error and a by-wcrd in the eyes of the
nsation.. It is sad to think that a man
of Gladstone's towering intellect and
religious antecedents should end his
political career in the attempt to force
such a radical and obnoxious measure
.brougy Parliament.
At the interior department Monday
morning a telegram was received at
Ottawa from T. H. Daly, who is in the

was to take place to -day, but Mr. Daly
las decided to hold over the matter
altogether for the consideration of
Parliament.

OTTAWA, Aug. 8. ---'lion. T. kt. Daly,
Minister of the Interior, telegr'tphed to•
day from Calgary to postpone the sale of
the islands in the Thousand Island group
on the Canadian side of the Sr. Lawrenoe,
There were in the first instance 648 put up
for sale. The protest made against their
disposal was so strong that Mr. Daly wired
to put up only 850 for auction. Among
those to be retained were the larger ones.
The sale was to take place at Gauauoque
on the 10th inst. To -day's despatch puts
off the sale indefinitely. What policy Mr.
Daly intends pursuing is not known here,
but it is not likely anything will be done
until Parliament has. pronounoed ou the
matter,
The Story Denied.
BURLINGTON, Aug. 8.—The foundation
for the hensatlonal story that appeared in
the New York World implicating Mrs.
Beaton with being concerned in the death
of Mr. Harrison Case, who was drowned
while on his way to New York, appears to
rest on a very slender basis. She denies
the whole story in tote, and •is prepared to
face the matter in court. There seems to
be hardly any corroboration for the mair
facts of this extraordinary story.
Some of • the papers whieh published
highly colored versions of the story are
now threatened with actions for libel.
A Suspicions Death.
Kll.Bntnx, Ont.. Aug. 8.—Mark Fleming,

scattered immure floated around town that
his death had been occasioned through the
neglect of his son-in-law and those who
should have cared for the old gentleman
during his illness. Great excitement pre-
vailed. all last week, and an enquiry into
the affair was demanded by his friends
until an inquest was ordered, This takes
place this evening before Coroner Free-
man, when interesting developments are
expected.

covered.

ST. PALL, Aug. S, -The weather during

LoNnoi , Aug. 9.—Mr. Gladstone an-

stages of the Home Rule Bill were passed

The Right Hon, Henry Chaplin, presi-
dent of the Board of Agriculture in Lord
Salisbury's Cabinet, asked leave to move
the adjournment of the House in order
that the changes in the Indian currency
system might be discussed. Its speaking
to his motion 11Ir. Chaplin blamed the
Government for persistently obstructing
disoussipn of the question, The changing
of the Indian currency system before al-
lowing Parliament to express au opinion
on the change was a matter of urgent
public importance. The Government of
ludic had escaped a deficit by tampering
with the currency and artificially raising
the value of the rupee. The effect of this
action had been to lower the pro tanto
value of everything else. The Govern-
ment had virtually mulcted the natives of
India by methods which it had hoped
would not be discovered. By a single
stroke the Government had depreciated by
15 per, cent. the value of the silver-h'eld by
the population of India. A more flagrant
act of public plunder hadnever been per-
petrated by` civilized civil'
G Od GOVel'IIm
ant. The
result had been a convulsed financial situa-
lion from China to Peru. If the -repeal by
the American Congress of the Sherman
Act should become inevitable, it would be
partly due to the error that had been com-
mitted in India. A further fall in the
price of silver must follow the repeal of
the Sherman Act.
Mr. Chaplin, in concluding, demanded
to know whether the Government before
taking this action in India had held any
communication with the United States and
whether the Government, with their eyes
now opened, contemplated persisting in
the great wrong. The. loss to holders of
silver securities, lie said, was already
£200, 000, 000, for which the Government
must be held responsible. Their action
could not fail to appreciate gold through-
out the world while increasing the com-
mercial difficulties everywhere.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt declined to
enter into a general argument, but he was
quite prepared to defend the change In
India The course taken by the Govern-
ment, he said, was indicated to them by
the Royal Commission of 1888.
Referring to the proposals of the United
States at the International Monetary Con-
ferenoe in Brussels, Sir 'William said that
the United States had proposed that the
conference should entertainthe question
of someaneasure for increasing the use of
silver in the currencies of 'nations. As a
matter of fact England had been almost
the only power prepared to support such a
resolution as far as it would not ,affect
internal British currency, The India cur-
rency question had been reserved. In
conclusion, Sir William, denied that the
populace in India were suffering as much
as'they were alleged to be.
Arthur James Balfour, Conservative
leader, said that this was not a po-
litical question. The Government had
been driven to commit a `financial crime,
and they appeared to think that they ought
not to submit to criticism of their con -
duet. ' The speech just made by the Chan-
cellor 'of the Exchequer was virtually 'a
sneer at the present financial situation.
Attacks on the Governuient's course
were also made by Sir John Lubbock and
Leonard Courtney.
Dadabhai Naoroji, the Parsee member,
protested that the natives of India already
felt the pinch of the change and that they
would soon awake through suffering to the
wrong done them.
Sir William Harcourt moved the closure
of the debate. The motion was carried
withont a division.
