to the speaker's table , the speaker im
mediately ordered him to withdraw.

.manner and tone which accompanied
his refusal Tuesday. The sergeant
* t-arrns then laid his hacd * upon-Mr.
Bradlangba shoulder , and removed
him belew the bar of the house.
As Boon as this had been accom
plished amid considerable confusion ,
Mr. Libouchere , an advanced liberal ,

the ridicule It was lately bringicr.
upon the house , asked Gladatona tc

special oath. Ghdatone replied that
the eetslon WJM already far advanced ,
the land bill .was still pending and
affairs in Ireland were growing more
unsettled every day. Other business ,

the attention of. the house , while
therefore he would not refuse to on
tertaln the question at some future
time , he could not sonal&tently witt
his duty to the country permit the in <
trodudlon > t present of , a bill whlcl
would be sure to delay business.

A CHANGE IN SENHMENT.
ST. Louis , April 28 1 a. m.
hero ii a decided change noticeable
o-day in the sentiment of the press
egarding the street car strike. The
"lobe-Democrat expresses itself cdl-
orially as follows : ' 'The hope which
re expressed yesterday for an honora-
Io and peaceful settlement of the
itreet car troubles lita been , we regret
o say , disappointed. Mr. Wells con
ceded yesterday substantially all that
had been caked of him , but his offer
was rejected. The truth is that the
bject of the strike has been per
verted , Originally an honest effort to
ecure a reduction of hours of labor ,
it became yesterday an impudent de
mand for control of the business oi
ho different street railroads. The
called trades-union has entered
nto a dispute with which it cm legal
ly have no concein. Now the ques
tion is , not how many hours the men
shall work , or how muih wages they
shall receive , but whether the com
panies ere willing to be governed bj
rules laid down by an utterly irroS'
ponsiblo orgnnizitlon of utterly Irrcs
ponaiblo man , controlled by journey
men in the pretended name of labor
To this demand honorable men cat
make but one reply , and that is thi
negative. "
