RAI. LOIR Alt tSUIl OF TRICKING HILM I. TIII2 UOlSi: )F t'OM.MO.VS. John Itednioiid Hitter in Condemning the Government Lender for Provoklntj 11 Jtiot. MORE SEVERE PUNISHMENT OITHMIKUS 3IAY IIH SISPKMJED FOR TI1C AVIIOLK SF.SSIOX. Mr. Ralfour Determined to Prevent a Recurrence of YVedncndny .Horn Iiik'm "l'nlnful Scenen.' LONDON, March C The excitement occasioned by !.ist night' scenes in the House of Commons is still very evident, and when tho House met at noon to-day, in view cf possible disturbance the whole police force on duty at St. Stephen's had been mobilized and reinforced by reserves. Mr. John Redmond ppeedily rose and raised a ejuestlon of privilege arising from "the painful scents of last night." He claimed that members had been suspended without proper steps being taken to Identify them and that their removal had been accompanied by undue violence. He was satisfied, he said, that members ware suspended who had actually gone to the lobby to participate In the division. The speaker, interrupting, pointed out that Mr. Redmond was not raising a question of privilege, but a point of onler. If he was properly informetl of any wrongful suspensions he (the speaker) would be glad to take steps to rectify them. Mr. Redmond tried to move an adjournment and appeale! to Mr. Ralfour to give the members an opportunity for discussion. Mr. Ralfour, remarking that he presumed that It was desired to institute means for preventing a recurrence of the scenes of last night, promised to consider what opportunity for discussion could be given. Mr. Ralfour ibsequently gave notice of a motion to be made to-morrow to suspend yuch offenders hereafter for the remainder of the session. John Redmond said to a representative of the Associated Press: "The scene last night In the House of Commons was a direct result of a trick on the part of the government. A vote on account for. seventeen millions had been brought up for discussion. It covered a multitude of items and included over ,2,Uoo.OiJO for Irish purposes. The discussion was initiated by English members on the English education question, and it was universally understood that the whole night would be devoted to this English question and then the debate on the remaining items would stand adjourned. On this understanding a large number of Irish members, including some of the most experienced members of the party, left the House. Suddenly at the close of the sitting at midnight Mr. Balfour pr)pose'tl to closure the discussion on the entire vote of 17,000,000. This nearly provoked an outburst on the part tf the Irish members who were in the House. The scene was one most disgraceful to tho English Parliament. We intend to raise the matter as a question of privilege. As a matter of fact some of the members were turned out of the House who took no part in the scene, and most brutal violence was exhibited In the moving of some of our members. The action of the government is likely to defeat its object and will make the Irish more determlne! than ever to resist the government's plans to choke the olscussion of Irish affairs." Messrs. Jordan, JIcGovern and Donlan, it Is claimed, were wrongfully suspended. Comment of the Irlnli l'rena. DUBLIN, March 6. Commenting upon last night's scene la the House of Commons the Freeman's Journal rejoices that Ireland "at last possesses a party that will teach Westminster that If the rights of Ireland are to be sacrificed the character and privileges of Parliament will accompany the sacrifice." The Irish Times says: "Despairing of getting suflicient support and maintenance in London from their own countrymen those pretending to represent Ireland are meditating a mendicant pilgrimageto the land of the dollar,' and fondly imagine brutality will serve as a bold advertisement." Keep the Green Flnsr Wavlnjr. CHICAGO, March 6. The United Irish Societies to-day sent the following cablegram to the Irish members of the English Houso of Parliament: "Keep green Hag flying. Are with you to the rtnish." Said la ami Gonne to-day: "Tho Irish members cf Parliament are improving. They seem to have tlone fairly well last night." FROM THE FAR EAST. A European power is alleged to have seized the island of Hanto. In Sl-Ngan-Fu, because of the famine, the villagers are eating human Uesh. Shang-Tung missionaries are planning to return to their stations after the China New Year. The Japan Mail says: "An explosion took place In the coal mines at Yubari on the 12th, seventeen men being killed and two badly hurt. It is said there is no apprehension of fire in tho mines." A letter from Klang-Sl states that miny anti-Christian disturbances have occurred in several places In the prefecture of ChlnGan. One hundred thousand famine sufferers are In danger of death in Shen-Sl. The pirates .ire getting more bold on the West river near Canton and they recently attacked a European boat.

It is stated at the Chinese capital that in event ef peace negotiations failing those troops were to be pitted against the allies. The feeling la prevalent In Peking that the Germans are acting in too high-handed a manner, and a majority of the generals under Count Von Waldersee agree with General Chaffee's reply to the count's plan of evacuation that the Ch'nese are not enoofrn considered and that they should guarantee the railroad exempt from Peking to Tlen-Tsln. General Gaselee considers the Chinese should control with foreign assistance. Chinese In Peking, who are In correspondence with Si-Ngan-Fu. say the court inteinls to remain in the interior, either at Si-Ngan-Fu or some other point, unless the principal public buildings in Peking are returned to China and declared outside of the legation listrlct. and also until reasonable legation guards are the only foreign troops left in Peking. They say the court I; tin k r no compulsion to return to Peking nceorling to the terms f the agreement with the ministers of the powers. Oriental newspapers give an account of th hart arous murder of Captain Watts John. It H said he was received with apparent friendliness in the yamen of ShanSl. and was in the act of receiving his pasrport when his hands were struck off. He was then taken outside thj yamen. sliced In several pieces and his hea1 cut off. Hi compinion. a Roman Catholic tlshop, was put to a lingering death, hi 3 tortures being Inflicted so gradually that it was four days before death relieved him. DocumentJ found by foreigners in Peking fchow that orders were issued to the Chine: that a many foreigner a possible

were to be taken alive and according to these- Mm? orders the fate planned fr them was th.it the captors should carry them to the "Temple of Heaven and there put them through the process of being boiled." The news of the finding of these documents was given by the Peking correspondent of th' Hong-Kong press. The same correspondent says that the documents show that Instructions were sent to the viceroy of Nan-King, Lin-King-Yi to attack and massacre the residents of Shanghai. The Japan Gazette says: "By order of the Governor of Shan-Tung proclamations have been posted at Che-Foo, which say that pastors and priests are invited to return to their various stations. Should there in the future be outbreaks against the Christians, similar to those of the past few months, magistrates over the listricts which are iisturbed are to 1' cashiered. The magistrate who keeps the district peaceful is to get a good mark, if he Keeps It peaceful three years, he is to be recommended for promotion. Goods loted must be restore!; If not restorer! within a certain period, the holders of them are to te treated as having received stolen property." STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.

NO LOSS FOR CREDITORS ASSETS Ol-1 3111. SEARLES EXPECTED TO EXCEED LIAIIIMTIES. Action of 11 Dultith Company Preelpitatetl the Failure American Cottonv Company Is ot Affected. NEW YORK, March 6. The financial embarrassment of John E. Searles, one of the organizers of the American Sugar Refining Company and until yesterday president of the American Cotton Company, It was said to-day is purely personal and will not Involve any of the eighteen corporations with which he Is connected, cither as president, treasurer, secretary, director or trustee. Mr. Searles's liabilities, it is believed, will reach about $1,300,000 and are covered by his assets, which, however, ar mainly unlisted stocks and are therefore not readily marketable or of a negotiable character. If not pressed by the creditors and sulllclent time Is granted Assignee Dwlgit expects to be able to pay Mr. Searles's obligations In full. Mr. Searles was at his office to-ilay, but he would not talk concerning his assignment. Pending the action of the board of directors of the American Cotton Company on the resignation of Mr. Searles, which was riled before his assignment was announced, the affairs of that corporation are now being managed by Vice President Wm. C. Levering, who was called here from Roston, ani D. C. BaJl, the general manager. Assignee Dwight said to-lay that the schedules of assets and liabilities are being prepared. and as soon as they are ready will be submitted to the creditors and a period of time to liquidate Mr. Searles's affairs will be ask-ed for. So far as culd be learnetl to-day. no out-of-teiwn Institution is involved in Mr. Searles's breakdown. The Searles assignment was precipitated by proceedings Instituted late on Tuesday afternoon in the United States Circuit Court in Brooklyn to recover the principal and interest on overdue and unpaid notes aggregating $70,000. The papers in the case were tiled by William Cook, an attorney. He said that there had been no secrecy about the legal formalities taken to recover the money ami that the papers were regularly hied with the clerk of the Circuit Court. All the notes were given on July 12, l'.HXt, and were made payable in six months, at 6 per cent., to the Duluth Furnace Company, of Duluth, Minn., and the judgments are recorded for Thomas E. Thomas, of that corporation. Mr. Cook said that the papers were riled in the United States Court in Brooklyn because Mr. Searles resides within that jurisdiction and Thomas Is a resident of another State. William C. Lovering, vice president of the American Cotton Company, made the following statement at the ofllces of the company to-day: "John E. Searles yesterday resigned the otfice of president of the American Cotton Company, and as vice president I am now acting in his stead, pending the election of his successor. The American Cotton Company is not affected In any way by Mr. Searles's assignment, as the company had no connection with his affairs."

Many more dates conflicting with those of the National League teams are promised In the American League schedule for the season nowbeing prepared by President Johnson. In Chicago there will be clashes on several more Sundays than last year, and there will be less care taken to avoid conflicts on weekdays than last year, when the agreement with President Hart called for a limited number of opposing games. In the East, Boston and Philadelphia will be the scene of a more bitter light between the leagues schedules. It will be impossible to avoid many conflicts, and others are contemplated by the American Leaguers as war measures. The season, President Johnson said tonight, will open on April 21 and close about the 1st to! October. One hundred and forty games will be played, and since no Sunday games are permitted In the East the season will be lengthened to live and one-half months. Every Western team will play Sunday games at home, Cleveland having arranged for the use of a park outside the city limits for Its games. Although not permitted to play on Sunday in the East the Eastern teams will play Sunday games In the Western cities, there being no owners of the League who oppose Sunday games, as do a few In the National League.

BISHOP TELLS A STORY. EviU of New York's Toller System UlnNtrnted by Potter. NEW YORK. March 6.-Ri?hop Potter, this afternoon, made an address on "What a Young Man Owes to His City" to the students of Columbia University. He paid, in part: "There is no error more dangerous than to believe that by legislation we can secure moral or social reforms. You may elevatt the standard of our Legislature and mako more severe the civil-service examination with no benelicial results, for good government consists not in the laws or in the men who execute them, but in that publio sentiment which is so often atrophied by negligence of our duties. "in a Southern State recently a party, of which I was one, talked on police systems in New York. A gentleman of this city, residing near President Low's hom told us of a burglary in his house. He had taken every precaution against burglars, but they entered his house and robled It nevertheless. When the burglary was announced the police of the precinct visited him, and so did men from i..e Rurglars" Insurance Company. He did what 1 consider a very wrong thing. He offered the policemen $ll0 each if they would catch the burglars. The reply was: Oh, hell, these men offered us isoo." This should cause the blush of shame on every honeft man's face to think that a policeman should have to be bribed to do his duty. To what a pitch of degradation have we come. There must be something dot to awaken men to protect innocence, prevent crime and compel ottklal to do their duty." CONTEST OF A WILL. Relative of the I.nte Miss Tousejr Wants l'nrt of n III Ratntr.
