Special Dispatch to Tie Bee.
LONDON , Janaaty 26 30 p. m.
The house of corutnuna was in session
all iright , and Is Btill sitting Without
any immediate prospect of an ad
journment. The homo rulers are
making the big fight which they have
BO long threatened , and are resorting
to every'species of parliamentary tac
tics to prevent a vote on the coercion
bill. Gladstone's resolution having
precedence to Mr. Fcrater'n bills for
the protection of life and property in
Ireland , they repeatedly made motions
to adjourn , but were as frequently
defeated on a division by a heavy ma
jority. Th debate on the coercion
b.l'.B ' now looho like a drawn battle ,
neither side giving the slightest sign
of surrender. Still , the obstruction
IB only a concentration of temporary
expedients , and can do no more than
delay again the result. The fooling
Is growing that , while the government
trill undoubtedly bo able so to handle
its numerical majority as to pass the
coercion moans , recent developments
will induca them to decide that it is
inexpedient to auforca them , and that
they will remain practically a dead
letter upon the state statute books.
BUTTING A STONE WALU
Special DUpatch to The B 9.
LONPON , January 27 1 a. m.
Thu debalo on Mr. Gladitone's reso
lution continued yesterday. After a
motion to adjourn , pressed by the
home rulers , it was decided in the
negative , without a division. Seeing
th t the government remained firm in
its position , and wai determined to
prets the resolution to a Tote , Mr.
Parnell proposed a compromiss ,
which was promptly declined by Mr.
Gladstone and Sir Stafford Nbrthcote.
Fprther heated discussion ensued ,
without eliciting anything new from
either side , when the house divided
on the resolution , passing it by a vote
of 204 for to 33 ass'.nst. It thus
gives Mr. Forster's bills priority over
all other matters , and the fight will
now be a square one on the coercion
measures as embodied by the home
secretary for Ireland. Jttr. Glad
stone then moved an adjournment ,
whlchwas _ agreed to , as jhn ; hou . &had
been in session twenty-two hours.
SUBMISSION OE BEBELLION.
Within the last few days the neces
sity for a compromise on the home
rule moderate form of land bill looms
up as the only practical solution of th *
prefent aspect of the Irish question.
The government can enforce its coer
cion measures by filling Ireland with
troops , and thcs compelling the pee
pie to at once choose between submis
sion or rebellion , or the government
majority may come to an understand
ice ; with the anti Parnell wing of the
home rulers , and possibly pass a mod *
orate land bill over their heads by a
majority which , backed by the public
opinion of ne rly all England , will be
likely to find acceptance in Ireland as
the only concession possible to be ob
tained from parliament at the present
session. The discussion is a profound
ly interesting one us it stands , even
the popular topics of the weather and
the end of the world fall into neglect
in the face of It.
TBE MARCU TO INDIA.
Special DlspaUh to The Bee
LONDON , January 27 1 a. m. A
St. Petersburg diep&tch savs that the
Russian army under Gen. Skobelon"
have stormed Geoktepo and taken the
fortifications after a terrible fight.
The Turkomans were driven from their
position and fled , leaving the whole
line of splendid fnrta in posiesiicn of
the Russians. It it also reported
through Russian sources , that Dense-
tepe has been captured. The loesea
on both sides were great , the Turco
mans having fought with nnsurpas.i
bravery , and proving themselves Ibo
best troops with which a European
force has ever met in battle. The
czar has telegraphed his congratula
tions to Gen. Skoboloff at the resii'-
This news , whose substantial tru Ii
there is little or no reason to ques
tion , is regarded in military and gov
ernment circles here , as of a very grave
character. It indicates that Russia
has gained an important atop in her
progress toward India. Unless thuy
meet with reverses , in the not far fu
ture the Russians are in a condition
to occupy a territory which will be a
valuable base of operations against
Afghanistan , and also against India.
There is believed to be no reason
why Russia should not now continue
her advance towards the Afghan fron
tier at her leisure , nor why Gen.
Skobeloffs march en Meros should
suffer serious opposition from the Tur
comans.

The conference over the Central

this morning from 9 o'clock until 2
p. m. , when a decision wia reached ,
? : hck ! is dictated by the attorney en-
oril as follows : There Is a dispute
between the Central Pacific railroad
and the United S atea , as to whethur
certain sums , which are claimed by the
railroad to bo applicable to the pay
ment of dividends , are properly so ap
plicable , and it is understood that the
United States will file a bill in order
to test the question of whether euch
a sum of money can properly be used
for thai purpose , but it is also under
stood that if the persons intereetrd iu
the railroad shall give a bond that in
case it it finally decided that euch
aumi should not bo used for the pay
ment of dividends , that they will re
store them to the treasury of the com
pany , that nn immediate injunction
will not be pressed tor , but that the
m Vter w'll ' await decision upon this
bond , whioh it is understood will be
seven hundred and fifty thousand dol-
iHrs Undsr tLe circumstances the
dividend will of course be paid , as tha

securities which are required.
HEP ZT OF THE PONCA COMMISSION.
The commission , consisting of Gen
eral * Crook and Jlilea , Mr. W. M.
Stickney , of tbo D 'rict of Columbia ,
ucd Mr. W.ihor Ad jma , of M es-ichu-
olta , appointed by tha president De
cember 19 , to make fresh investiga
tion oc the PoLca question , has sub
mitted its rt-port , in which they t n-
erally condemn the removal of these
Indiana from Dako a as illegal and in-
human. They attribute the recent
abandonment of the idea of a return
by the lad aus to the belief that the
government would not sustain them
in their'title to their Isnda in Dikota ,
and as their head men have agreed to
stay , they regatd it as a solemn com
pact , but those who have returned
earnestly desire to stay in Dakota and
Nebraska. The commission believes
that action by the government toward
making amends for the wrongs to
these Indians would have a salutary
etfoct upon oil Indians by impressing
them wi h the good faith of the govern
ment. They therefore recommended
an allotment of 1GO acrus of land to
each man and chlld of the tribe , to be
looated at the option of each in Dako
ta or the Indian territory , not to be
subjected to lien , taxation or encum
brance for thirty years , and until such
time hereafter the president may reno -
no vr euoh restriction ; that the govern
mpnt continue the appropriation of
§ 55,000 par annum tor five years , at
least , and that $25,000 be immediate
ly appropriated ; $5000 to bs expend
ed for agricultural implements for the
Dakota branch , and § 20,000 to ha di
vided among the others as payment In
full for Sioax depredations and Itrses
by removal. Also that there be ap
propriated further sums of 5000 for
dwelling housec , $5000 for school
houses for the Dakota Poncas , and
religion , education and industrial en
terprises be supported.
