LONDON , Juno 7. Gladstone entered the
commons at 4:55 : this afternoon , and pro
ceeded straight lo his scat , \yiien his
presence was noticed ho was greeted by
tremendous cheers. Tlio premier vvoro a
while ro o in his lapel. The commons was
ciovvdcd to Its utmost capacity at the Hour of
opening the session. Gladstone , icpljlng
to a question on the paper , bald
thu government was unable to promise
to Incorporate miasmes for homo rttle.gov-
eminent In Kngland , Wales and Scotland In
the revised Iilsli homo rule bill , when It was
brought In dm Ing the autumn session , In the
event of Its passing the second reading now.
'I he opposition loudly cheered John Blight
and llnitlngion as they entcied and took
their places. The Painellltcs weio nil In
good voice. They gave Gladstone a most en
thusiastic welcome. Kvcry Inch of space on
the main llooi as well as In the galluiles was
occupied.
A t noon lo-day 100 seats had been secured
by hatting for thn closing debate on the
homo rule bill to-night. ChambeiIain's reply
to I.abnitdicics appeal to htm to abstain fiom
voting to-night in older to save the principle
of Gladstone's bill favoiably affected the
dissidents.
siT.rrii.
The Hlgnt Hon.Gcurgu J. Go-ciien ( libeial )
resumed the debate on the homo rule bill. Hu
bald the soveiclgnly of tlio Impel la ! govern
ment depended on the clause which It was
highly piobihlc thu majoiity ol the house
would never consent to. If tlie bill passed , a
tiemendotis stiuggle would be Iniiuguiated
by Ihu Catholic cleigv ol li eland foi the con-
tiol ot education In that country. ICegaidlng
the question vvhethei tlie bill would piove
n linal settlement of the Irish dilhciilty ,
or lead lo eventful sepnation , Goschcn
Raid he did not think It would
niovo a duality. Tlmt would depend en-
thel.v on the assiiranco given by the Iilsh
niembeis. The premier at one time was sup
posed to have given a pledge lo lecoiibtiuct
thu bill , but he subsequent ! ) Indignantly ie-
pudiated thai assumption.
Gladstone iiiteiiupteii 'That Is a cross
crior. What the gentleman , thinks looked
like Indignation was nij c.agci Repudiation
of the cool statement thai 1 had le&olved lo
reconstruct tlie hill. "
Goschen , ic'-uuilng , b.ald ho saw ( lie dis
tinction but was unable to see how the
piemler could avoid tlio dlllienlty. 'Ihe
noiibu was now intoimed thai Ihu bill w.ib
not to be icconstitided. JCilesol "OhlOhl'
and cheers amidst winch Gladstone ex
pired signs ot dissent. J Was the govein-
meiit going to stand by then bill or not ?
[ Loud opposition eheuis ] This state nt
doubt came fiom voting not on the bill but
Irom explanations given the ioicicn ollicu
and amplified and explained away on the
l-'ilday lollowing. Fiiithei explanations to
the answer were made on Iho ensuing Mon-
day. It had also been elicited in v.iuous let
ters which passed between the plunder and
his tolloweisth.it llio icconstiuctlon bill was
the basis on which many niembeis would
unite In voting with the government on the
iiica.sn i u which eveiy ono admitted to be thu
most impeltant cvei submitted to pirlia-
ment. 'I lie opponents of the bill will have
achieved the insult if thu bill is withdrawn
after the second reading it it
passes tliat stage. Tlie premier is
now more anxious to leaiii lioni
his mippoileibvv'hat , they will anttiuil/o him

Parnelllles will accept. [ Cheers.J Tlie

not hear .so much theieof now.
Continuing. Goschen bald : "The piesence
ot lilsli nu'inbeisat Westminsiei Is incom-
p.itlblu with asepaiato Irish paillamenl. 11

Dublin parliament. " IParncllito cilcs

He asked If thu homo ruleblll vvas In-
bcpuably tied up with the land puichaso
scheme. [ Oil , oh , oh , cheeis.J Hu had been
honiu coiiesponileiico in which Ihu piemler
stated that the subjects weio Insepaiablo In

In conclusion Goschcn said : "I Implore

not llnd It convenient to report It back this
session. ' 1 here could bo but ono object to
opposing Its reference to the committee on
agriculture , and tlmt object was to prevent
legislation on thn subject.
Mr. Evarts said tlie bill dealt with food
substance , the product ol the farm , llo fa
vored reference to the committee on ngri-
cultiire.
Mr. Beck thought wool and tobacco were
also the products of the farm.
The question of reference then came to n
vote and resulted for Miller's motion , 3
against 31 , and the bill was referred to the
committee on agriculture. The vote In de
tail was as follows :
Yeas Messrs. Allison. Illnlr. Campion ,
Conger , Dawes , Dolph , Evans , Hale , Harri
son , Honr , Kcnna , Logan , McMillan , Mn-
hone , Miller , Mitchell , of Oregon , Sherman ,
Spooner , Teller , Vnn Wjck , Whlttehorn
and Wilson , of Iowa S3.
Nays Messrs. Aldrlch , BccK , Berry ,
Brown , Butlci. Call , Coke , Edmunds , Lus-
lis , Hauls , Hawlcy , Jones , of Arkansas ,
Mnrey , Morrlll. Paj no , Pufth , Hlddleherper ,
Vance. Vest , Wat thai ! nnd Wilson , of Mary-
land-ai. .
The consular and diplomatic appropriation
bill was then taken up nnd passed.
Some debate nro o on the bill icportcd by
Mr. Blown from the committee on railroads
to provide for the settlement of accounts
willt i all road companies that had received
proncrty from Iho United States during 180. >
and 1800.
Mr. Hartley called attention to the report
accomuanj Ing the bill. It referred , ho said.
to the union nrmv as the "Invading army , "
Mr. Han Ivy icxarilud the language of the re
port as a Kro-.s dlscotirtesj' . The senator
Horn Georgia had had an opportunity to np-
pologbo for it and had not dona so.
Mr. Brown disclaimed any ollcnso by the
woids.
Mr. Harrison did not think It proper that a
report containing tlie words "InvndliiKarmj"
as applied to the army of the United Mites ,
was n proper report to place on timiecords of
the senate. Ho moved that the bill be recom
mitted to the committee on railroads , \vltu
instructions lo stiikc out from the icpoVt the
words leferred to.
Mr. Brown asked permission to withdraw
the report altogether. Unanimous consent
being given , the report was withdrawn nnd
the bill was then passed.
Mr Beck submitted an amendment to the
oleomargai hie bill for reference with that
bill to the committee on agiiculture. He said
he did not wish to be responsible for nil the
detailed piovislons of the amendments , lie
then announced his amendment to bo the
house bill on taiillaud taxation. [ This is tlio
Morrison bill. J ' .
On motion of Mr. Butler the senate , against
the opposition of Mr. Hale , took up the bill
piovfding for admitting to the naval acad
emy giauuatc-s excluded by the naval ap
piopriation bill ol 18SJ. , Without action on
the measure tlie senate went Into executive

Another Victory for Van AVyck.
WASHINGTON' , Juno 7. [ Special telegram
to the Bii.l : Senator Van Wjck won
anotuci bitterly contested nalil In the senate
to-day. Ho had the oleomargarine bill
passed by the li/juso last xveek referred to the
senate committee on agriculture , by n vote of
23 to 21. This insu esa report on the meas
ure within a few days , and the vole indicated
Us strength , npon the final passage. The
opposition to the blll was coucen
t rated In the form of a movement
to refer It to the committee on
hnance , tlio members of which , It Is
said , are opposed to the bill. Senator Vnn
W ykln advocating Its reference to the com
mittee on'ngrlculture plainly and forcibly In-
fprmed the opposition that the only object
there was In referring the bill to the finance
committee was to defeat Its consideration
and time those who voted against reference
to tlicagiiculluie coiumitte which has been
considciing the subject lor six weeks nnd is
already practically ready to report upon it-
would have to account lor theh action to the
farmcis ot the country.
A Martyr at Iinst Found.
WASHINGTON , Juno 7. At a meeting of
the democratic congressional committee this
morning , Senator Kcnna accepted the chair
manship of the committee. His peisonal af
fairs were such that it would leqidro a sacrl-
hco on his part to assume nnd discharge the
duties ot chairman , but he had certainly not
been Influenced to decline by any apprehen
sion of a democratic defeat. He would , In
obedience to the wishes of his colleagues of
Iho committee , accept the olllco.

WASHINGTON' , Juno 7.1 [ Special Telegram
to the BKIJ.J A bill was presented In the
house to day uy Mr. Morrow , of California
which Is of special Interest to the Noithwcst-
ern states and territories. It provides that
the n o and occupancy of any part of the
public lands of the United States by any
person without claim or color of title made
In coed faith nndei the laws of the United
States Is declaied to bo unlawful ; and It Is
pi ohlbltcd that any person In possession of
any of the public lands of the United States ,
In any of the ten Itorlcs under title or color
of title , 01 any right to possession thereof
from the United States , or any
grantee of , or who not being In
possession has title or color of
title or rightto the possession of any such
bonds dcilvcd fiom Iho United States , may
maintain any action to recover possession
thereof , or an action to iccovor damages from
any person who shall trcsspass thereon , or
for damages caused thereto , or to natural or
planted products thereof , or ImpiovcmcntB
thereon , by horses mules , cattle , sheep ,
goats , bogs or any othci domestic animals
belonging to , or In custody and keeping of
another , anj thing in the laws to the con
trary notwithstanding. The object of the
bill Is to protect ciops from
the ravages of cattle. There aio at pres
ent many persons In the states and teiritoiios
having laige amounts ot public lands en
gaged In cattle raising and that of other do
mestic animals , and who are In the habit of
occupying largo areas ot the public domain
without any authority. Such persons have ,
In many instances , by their power and Inllu
once , Induced legislatures to enact laws
vvherebj' the owners of lands are denied the
right to maintain actions against others to
recovei for such damages as may bo done to
their lands and product theieof by lioises ,
cattle , etc. , unless it appears that at the time
such trespasses vvoro committed the lands in
aucstlou were enclosed by a so called law fill
fence. As the cost of fencing the lands Is
many times greater than the pi Ice put noon
IJiem by the government , it Is a gicat burden
upon actual bottlers.
THE OLhOMAlinAIUXK riOIIT.
The oloomaigarine bill seems likely to meet

of tlie finance committee , will insist on its
rcfcionoo to that committee. It Is now on
the table and awaltlni ; reference. It Is cei
taln that it will bo made less objectionable
