GERALD llALFOl'ITS MEASURE INTRODUCED IX THE COMMOXS. John Morley Says It Bristles with Objectionable? Kent urea Comment of the London Press. LONDON, April 13. Mr. Gerald Balfour, Chief Secretary for Ireland, introduced the new Irish land bill In the House of Commons to-day. It Is of much wider scope than that of Mr. John Morley, who was Chief Secretary for Ireland in the late Liberal government, and Is on the principle of purchase by the occupying tenant as being the ultimate solution of the land question. In introducing the bill the Chief Secretary for Ireland said that the government believed that the land question was at the root of the agitation for home rule. The bill provided to facilitate the purchase of holdings and prevented the lessee from having rent levied on his Improvements. It embodied the most noncontentious proposals of the bill of 1805 and modified others. They proposed that the tenant should be deemed, oa the payment of two years arrears, to be In just possession of his holding, leaving the landlord to recover the remainder of the arrears in the ordinary way. Continuing, Mr. Balfour said that the government had decided not to alter the statutory term of fifteen years for fixing a fair rent. When Mr. Gerald Balfour had concluded Mr. John Morley, who was Chief Secretary for Ireland in the late Liberal Cabinet, and the author of the Irish land bill offered In the last Parliament, arose to reply. He said that It was impossible to criticise such a complex bill until he had seen It printed. but it was evident that It bristled with ob jectionable features, and would require a deal of amendment In committee. He warned the government that If they wished to pass It they must withdraw their educational bill. John Dillon, the chairman of the Irish parliamentary party, declared that the bill was extremely dlsapotntlng to Ireland, and was a further proof of the incapacity or Parliament to legislate for Ireland. He said the measure was very Inadequate in fixing fair rents and dealing with evicted tenants. But he admitted that it was an Improvement' on the bill recently put forward. The bill was read the first time, and its second reading was fixed for April 27. A reporter, looking for some representative opinions on the new bill, sought an Interview with John Redmond on the subject. He admitted that the bill had some frood polntfc. and was better than Mr. Morey's because it was Intended to pass, while Mr. Morley's was not. He thought the improvement clauses would benefit the tenant, but the purchase clauses, he said, were the most Important. Horace Plunkett, member of Parliament for Dublin county. South, was also asked for his opinion. He regard the bill an honest attempt to bring the land question within a measurable distance of a finality. Purchase would not be compulsory, the Chief Secretary for Ireland proceeded by saying, aa such a scheme would require possibly 2W).ooo,ooo, while the terms could not be so advantageous to the tenant. The terms for repayment would be extended from fortynine to over seventy years, and relief would be given to the tenants toward the end of their tenancy, when they are more likely to need It, the payments decreasing with the length of tenancy every purchaser could buy In a less than twenty years purchase. While at the start there would be 20 per cent, less rent than they were now paying. They would also be relieved of 10 per cent, during the first thirty years. The bill, he said, extended the powers of the conjested districts board, enabling It to borrow to the extent of 1,500,000. With regard to evicted tenants Mr. Balfour said, the government had already declared that they cou'.d not consent to the use of public money, believing that aid should come from private eources, but they were prepared to re-enact the clause of the land act for a year, and so act as mediators. Mr. Gerald, Balfour concluded by eayinff that the bill was an honest endeavor to facilitate the substitution of peasant ownership for dual ownership. Comment of Newspaper. LONDON. April 14. The parliamentary correspondent of the Standard ays of the Balfour land bill: "The reception accorded -to ' the land bill was quite as favorable as the government expected. Mr. Morley'e speech has created the impression that the opposition will not force a division against the second reading of the bill. Should it be found Impossible to carry the whole bill It Is probable that only the fair-rent clauses will be proceeded with." . The Dally News, the liberal organ, declares that it Is a landlord's bill. An editorial in the Times says: "The most serious objection to the bill Is its length and complexity. A measure requiring three hours for expounding by a Minister remarkable for his conciseness of expression and closeness of reasoning can hardly be adequately dealt with in less than an entire session.' The correspondent of the Times in Parliament says: "The Parnellites admit that the land bill la skillfully devised, and they approve the purchase clauses. The an tl -Parnellites ere more chary of their approbation. Timothy Healy remarked that Mr. Balfour seemed to have taken a Roentgen fhotograph and got a skeleton of Mr. Morey's scheme, having discarded all the flesh, sinew and muscle." An editorial in the Chronicle (Liberal) on the new bill Fays: "It Is primarily a purchase bill, and only in a dubious way a fair rents bill. It bids fair to resolve itself into an inflated scheme of purchase forced on the tenants by the hopelessness of getting justice from the land court." TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES.

ELECTKICAL PHENOMENON. Experience of X-Itnr Experimenters with Lead Cilaan Incandescent Dulbs. DENVER. April 13. A peculiar electrical phenomenon was noticed here yesterday by the experimenters in X rays at the Homeoepathic College. During the exposure of a plate under the Crookes tubes, one of the professors approached the big Induction coll, holding an incandescent bulb In his hand. Instantly the globe began to glow with a bright blue light, which lasted as long as the globe was within a dozen feet of the coil. On being removed from the Influence of the coll the giobe glowed at Intervals for ten minutes, and when- brought close to the Crookes tube In action, Us Intensity was Increased. The Incandescent globe and the tube both were of lead glass, but the degree of vacuum was so high that magnificent effects were obtained. The college has ordered a number of Geissler tubes made from this glass, which has been condemned by the sci entists of the past, but which gives good results a mile above sea level. The' altitude, it is clalmtd. is responsible for the light degree of exhaustion obtained in the lamps and tubes, the light, dry air avoiding what is technically known as "air wash" in the bulbs. NEITHER TO TESTIFY EVIDENCE SUFFICIENT TO CONVICT BOTH JACKSON AND WALLING. Judge Helm Sets Walling Trial for May 7, Expecting to He Through with Jaekion In Two Weeks. Special to the Indlanaoolls Journal. CINCINNATI. April 13. Colonel Nelson, legal representative ot the Bryan family, assisting Commonwealth's Attorney Colonel Lockhart In the prosecution of the murderersof Pearl Bryan, has made the positive state ment that neither Jackson nor Walling will be "called on to testify against each other, nor will they receive any promises of immunity from punishment by the State under any circumstances. Colonel Nelson says the prosecution has an absolutely convicting case against both Jackson and" Walling evidence so conclusive and complete that it will send them both to the gallows as the brutal muN derers of Pearl Bryan. Colonel Nelson Is ready any day to begin the trial, confident of convicting both the prisoners of first degree murder. It Is now not denied by the prosecution that they have some new and startling evidence la store, which will be brought out at the trial. Notwithstanding the denial made by Col. felson that the prosecution knows nothing or the missing head, the Tlmes-btar is In position to state, as was exclusively printed in these columns Saturday, that at the proper time the prosecution will introduce a witness who will not only divulge what disposition was made of the head of poor Pearl Bryan, but who disposed of it, how it was done and where and at what time. The plan of campaign of the defense in the Jackson case will be to establish an alibi and break down the evidence intro duced by the prosecution. Coachman Jack son, who will undoubtedly go on the stand for the prosecution.-will be given a raking fire from all sides Witnesses will be put on the stand who will show that the negro was in Cincinnatl on the night he alleges he drove Jackson arid - Walling and Pearl Bryan to Fort Thomas, and many more will attack his reputation for veracity and good cnaracter. . Both the prisoners snent an uneventful day at the Newport jail Sunday. aionaay being motion day in the Campbell County Circuit Court, the attorneys for Jackson and Walling moved that the Jurors in rnose cases te summoned as soon as possible. Judge Helm accordingly notified Col. Washington that Walling's case would be heard May 5, and that the trial must progress promptly Irom that date. This in dicates that Judge Helm expects to finish tne trial of Scott Jackson In two weeks. Charles Hodel, now an Instructor at one of the academies .at; Pittsburg, passed through this city Sunday. Professor Hodei was an Instructor at the Greencastle High School when Pearl Bryan was a stuuent at that institution. , "I remember her distinctly." said Mr. Hodel to a reporter. "She was In the second year when I taught her, a bright, innocent girl, who seemed incapable of any wrong doing. She wrts not particularly pretty, bmt was exceedingly good natured. Of course, I know her only as an instructor and can tell you little about her, but I assure you she was not the girl that has been pictured in the newspapers. A good photograph of her. If 'there were one in existence, would show her a girl of passing pood looks, with a face unclouded with hard lines, as the newspaper cuts represent." DENIED BY BOOTH-TUCKER.
