Kraiu tli Cabinet.
In the Heuse of Commens mi Friday Mr.
Clladalenu said that he Imped te Mulshed llie
dobnte 011 the home rule bill en Monday
next. He announced that the budget would
be Introduced en Tuesday and the Irish land
bill en Thursday, the latter belug n neces
sary supplement te the home rule bill. He
propnsed that the Heuse adjourn for a week's
holiday at Taster.
Mr. Chamberlaln aroneand said that when
he was asked te Jein the goteriimout he told
Mr. Oladstoiie that he did net think It poasl peasl poasl
bie te roceuclle n Roparale l'nrllainent at Dub
lin, as demanded by tlie Irish luemberH, with
the conditions or lull guarantees for the socu secu
rlty of the empire, and Mr. (Hailstone Inform
ed him that all he wanted then was nil In
dependent Inquiry Inte tlie subject of the
government et Ireland. He wrote a lotter
te Mr. (Iladslone 011 January tl, In which he
explained that he could net consent te the
establishment or n sopnrate I'arllaliient In
Dublin, mid It wasnti this understanding
that he consented te Jein the cabinet. He had
presumed, from what Mr. (lladstone told
him, that the whote cabinet would proceed
step by step In consultation te build ascheme
oftieniH rule net Involving separation. It
was net tiulllMarch 13 that Mr. (Iladslone
BUrtled the cabinet by bringing forward a
scheme involving the Issue or X IMyNO,000 In
consels.
At this point Mr. Gladstone, Interrupting,
reminded Mr. Chmntmrlslu that he had uet
recelwsl pormlMien of her male-sty's co em
inent te reveal the laud proesnlH. Mr.
I 'liamlierlaln, continuing, said he would re ro
serve his explanation, lie did net resign en
the land purchase propexals alone, but 011
the whole scheme. Hllll, he asked, hew
could he explain his esltinu if his hands
were tied. Conservathe ehoers.1 He
asked If he might be permitted te read his
letter te Mr. (lladstone.
Here an angry discussion took place lie
tween Mr. Chamberlain and Mr. Gladstone.
The latter declared that he could net go
Iwyend the limits of the permission given
Mr. Chamlierlaln, who thereupon com plained
that his explanation would be tame mid In
complete, lie would never be ablotejustlty
his conduct te the Heuso and country. He
leek lour principal objections te the scheme
ler the government of Ireland. The llrst
was te the proposal te exrlude the
Irish members from Westminster. His
second objection was te renouncing,
as preHtsed, the exercise of tlie right
of imperial taxation. In the third place,
lie objected te tlie surrender of the apiolnt apielnt
incuts of Judgesand magistrates; and llnally
he objected te the suproiue authority ghen
te the Irish Parliament In matters net
BecIally excluded Irem Its authority. Slnce
he had leR the cabinet, he said an Important
change had !eon made by retaining pewer
ever the customs and oxclse duties, but tlie
pretKisal new appeared utterly Inconsistent
with tlie principle that taxation and
representation should go together. He
further objected te any scheme that
laid upon the llrltlxh taxpayer a tro tre tro
mendous liability with excosslve risk,
as such n jiroject could only Le looked
men as a bribe te ineillfy the hostility of
Irish land owners te home rule. He did net
Iki1Ioe that tlie Irish people would ngree te
be deprived of all voice In the control of mat
ters and policies In which they were deeply
Interested, and he asserted that Ireland was
belng asked te occupy a degrading position
which the tieople would never ae'ept. Fur Fur
ther, the contribution which Ireland was te
1m called en te pay te the lniM)rlat treasury
was fixed by the scheme, and could net Ihi
increased even In case the rolled lCmgdeui
should be placed In a position el the direst
iKirll, and whero then, he asked, was the
integrity et the Kmplre?
The financial question. Mr. Chatnberlalu
continued, diided Itself Inte two parts The
Iuglish taxpayer would object te additional
bunions lielng thrown en him te make geed
Irish doflctenclos, and the Irish taxpajers, if
thore wosadeilclency In the budget, owing
le failure of the oxclse and custom duties,
would t)0 called en te pay new new taxes,
falling which tlie government would be
obliged te ropudiale tlielr obligations. The
scliome would be accopted grudgingly, and
in the course of two years there weuld-be
au attempt te rovlse or alter It As for
himself, rather than taco the future
agitation which would be certain te
prevail between the two couutrles, rather
than face the distractions and foreign com
plications which would arlse by having a
quasi-Independent government, he would
vete for soptratien, pure and simple. Ixmd
cheers.) The opponents or the government's
scheme were told that the only alternative
was coercion. That was net his alternative.
The agrarian discontent had arisen chielly
through ovictleus by landlords. He would
propeso te doprlve landlords of the pew er te
evict for six months guaranteeing thorn six
months rent, the land being security ler the
sum advanced. During this period a peace com
mission compasedjer members ol.every soctlen
represented in Parliament could' conduct an
exhaustive inquiry Inte the land question.
Hesides this, he looked for a solution et the
home rule matter in the dlroctlen of federa
tion. He was net, he declared, pedautlcally
pledged te his former proposals ter a national
council. Under the tedoratlen Ireland
would remain au integral portion el the em
pire. The principle of federation had been
successful m Italy, Germany and America.
It would, he asserted, maintain tlie lmperlal
unity ami at the same tlme satlsly the
desires or the Irish people for Neir-goern

Lord Hartliigtmi,lu an luterview w lib Lord
Salisbury te day, arranged that no motion
should be made against the home rule bill
until the second reading. Lord llartlngten
dees net Intend te propeso an alternative
scheme, though he will oppeso Mr. Glad

te be avorse te the formation or 11 coalition

last night when Temmy Mark's minstrels
appoared, The show was tlie host ever given
here by local latent and in many respects it
was equal te that of the leading mlnstrel
companies, Every act was geed and tlie
work of the minstrels showed that they un
derstood what they were doing, and were
trying te de it well. The company might
have had inore rohearsals with the orchestra,
but the show ran exceedingly smooth
and the majority of the nudlonce did net

In the llrst part about thirty pcople worn

his act Is really ery line. I 'eyer and Mack
appeared in a very funny sketch, ontltled

with a burlesque entitled "The Conn Skating

were Introduced.
F.voryliedy was pleased with the show,
because It was out of Ihoeld-timo ruts and
much originality was noticeable. The onter enter onter

What an Kye WltneM Itelstle..
Inspector Oeneral J. A. Scliaetler is stop step
ping at the Martolle house and was nn oye
witness le the sheeting. In repiy te a ques
tion he told the following stery: "I had been
en the brldge near whero Doner was killed a
few seconds bofero the trouble occurred. I
was walking up the track and was near the
Harel Heur mills when I heard a pistol shot
I knew that the repert came from a pistol by
the sound. I am used te the discharge of fire
arms and can readily tell the differeuce be
tween a rille and pistol shot lam positUe
that it came from the crowd. About ten sec
onds nfter the pistol shot the ritle tiring com
menced." " Reports are conflicting, general, the
strlkers claiming that the cowboy 11 red llrst
into the crowd V
" I am posltlve that the llrst shot was tired
from the crowd en the brldge near where
I steed a few moments before, The gover
nor has been notified and elrht companies
el troops will seen be here."
The 0110 point Involved in the question
able propriety of the action or the denutles is
their position at the time the velley was
II red. Careful 'investigation reveals the fact
that there was no persen nearer thau 100
leet Irem the deputies when the deadly
velley was lired Inte the crowd. A
straight Hue from the middle el the
trostle where the deputies steed te
the mlddle of the wagon brldge would
net inoasure mero thau 110 leet. The
two women who were shot, ene tatally,
wero about the same distance Irem the
deputies. The man Hener, who was killed
near the telegraph pole, was net further than
100 feet away. The lireen Tree hotel is net
mero than sixty yards from the trestle ou
which the deputies steed. It is thus made
patent that there was no one in the Immediate
vicinity el the deputies when the deadly fire
was opened.

which the train proceeded en Us way and
arrived at East St Leuis without further
interruption.
Mayer Francis, who was present at the
II re at the Loulsville A Nashvllle yards In
East St Leuis this morning, expressed him
self as perfectly willing le help the East St

learned that the hose was cut In several

houses, and lumber yards were completely
destroyed by tire. Hound houses and shops
partially saved. There wero no railway offi
cials around te direct troops where they
will be most needed. The llres were
all lncendarles. All started about 9
o'clock last night Large crowds el
strikers and citizens are cellected In groups
all evor the city and still determined te have

Interference by the Croud Willi the KM'urt.
of the Firemen te Kxtlugul.h Them.
St. Leuis, Me., April 10. Although no
oue was actually caught in the act of starting
any el the fires lest night, It is gonerally be
lieved that they were caused by the strikers
or their sympathizers, and this belief Is at
least partially borne out by the frequency el
their occurrence and by the lutorference by
the crowd with the etlerts el the tiremen te
extinguish the tlames. The total less te the
dllleient companles se far Is estimated at
fi0,000, insurance $30,000. The city of East
SI. Iselds was In a state of panic during the
euttre night, owing te the numerous Incen
diary fires but with preseuce of the military,
which Is guarding all the main lines of track
dlverging from the relay depot, something
llke erder appears te be premised for the
day. It Is net possible at this hour (S;'!0 a.
m.) te mere than approximate the dam
age by the night's lires. They were
all cnuliued te railroad preperty, and the
ollleers sent with troops report that
about twenty te thirty cars lu all were de
stroyed, which were leaded with merchan
dise and coal. The greatest damage occurred
at the Caire Short Line yards, about ene
mile from the relay depot, where probably
tlfteoucarswero'.doslroycd, 'and the Hames
for a time threatened the destruction of the
100 or 200 cars In the immediate vicinity.
Tlie yards were unprotected by the presonce
or an active deputy or ellicer or any kind,
and until company D, of Champaign, arrived
at the sceue the llre was permitted te burn
at 1U will. Twe monibers et this company
were round who could llre and tun locomo
tives, and a switch engiue being placed ut
their disposal, they succeeded In dragging
away from the burning cars fully 100 box
and coal cart. The main body or the troops,
beyond the lew seutrles statlotied Ht the rail
road switches, remain In the vicinity et the
relay depot Ne serious opposition of any
diameter lias beset the troops.
11 a. M. Every thing is new quiet lu East
St Leuis. The streets wear a beliday ai ai
pearance. All business houses are clesed
and groups or poeplo staud en the corners
discussing the bloody werkipl'yesterday in
low earnest tones. The Inquest en the dead
began this morning, and Intense luterest in
which Is inanllested by all. Meuthers
of both the general uud Joint ex
ecutive committee were astir early
this morning, notwithstanding that few
of them, owing te the excitement lest
night bad retlred until afler 3 o'clock.
Theleeling Ibis morning is ene or extreme
bitterness against llie deputies who did the
sheeting, and It Is morally certain that no
ellert will be spared te deal justlce te them.
"Will the general beard take any action
toward punishing the deputies who did the
BhoetltigT" Mr. llayes was ass.eu.
"That Is a question," was tbe response,
"that only circumstances can answer.
At Dreseut there seems te be a dis

te see that the guilty paitlea are pun
