The * Times,’-Parnell Case. Lonpon, August 1.

In the Commons Mr, Gladstone said his party would let the country understand these proceedings ou the Commussion Bill, that he was justitied in concluding that the Governiuent had a motive for the suppress- ing of the letters said to have been received by the 7 ‘imes.

Mr. Balfour considered the remarks im- proper, and denied any change in the Bill or position of the Government. Mr. Read wanted the inquiry confined to the mem- bers only, and Seaton believed the Govern- ment wanted outside persons to fall back on as the charges against members would break down.

_ Mr. Matthews said the inquiry was not into the conduct of members, as members, but their capacity as members outside of an organization.

Mr. Harcourt maintained that the Oppo- sition had just detected the real meaning of the bill, which was not to give the Par- vellites an oppertunity to clear themselves of the charges but tv inquire into a politi- cal organization, and the Government wished to escape the responsibility of the bill and laid its proposition to Parnell.

Mr. Healy said he believed the change in the bill was the result of Mr. Walters’ of the Times visit to Mr. Smith.

Mr. Balfour admitted that the committee of cabinet on July 12 decided to include (and others) in reference to the commission and the next day the whole cabinet assent- ed. If Mr. Smith in answering the refer- ence in the House did not read the words ‘and other persons” it was doubtless a 8 ip.

Mr. Gladstone said he thought the con- duct of the ministers in sitting silent when Mr. Smith announced the commission, leaving out the important words, deserved severe Censure,

Mr. Goschen said he didn't think Mr. Gladstone, in the whole course of his life, had acted as now in declining to recognize the truth of the $Minister’s word. No rhetoric, no ingenuity of speech could alter the fact that the intentions of the Govern- ment from the first were to include ** other persons.”

Mr. Gladstone said he hadn't the smallest intention of dealing with the matter as a question involving the truthfulness of the Government. But the statement of the Goverament was not rational or intelligible.

Mr. Harcourt said the whole course oi the Government had been the result of re- fusal to accept the words of a Parnellite, while ready to promote every calumny of the foulest kind. Would the Government now accept Mr. Parneli’s denials, or pro- ceed to try and fix upon him the charges of perjury and falsehood? If the members wanted to see the true unfairness and hypveriay that lay behind the bill, he com- mended them tothe frank innocence of Goschen’s remarks.

The chairman advised the cessation of recriminations.

The division on Read’s amendment was then taken, and the amendment rejected by 241 to 194.

Mr. Goschen, in the absence of Mr. Smith, stated if the bill was not passed by the close of to-murrow’s sitting, he would move that the remainder of the clauses and assessments be forthwith put.
