Tlio Chancellor of the ExAequor (Mr. Lloyd George) was grect-cd with ironical cheers, and cries of "WBerti's Char' ley Mastcrmnu?"

Thero was ji reisewed. on the admission of Major DJowdeii and Mr. Ganzoni, the Unionist members for Korl3i-«ast Derbyslnro and Ipswich resptfitivejy. Mr. Bonar Law, speakmg daring the third reading debate On the Bill,"saw that Jlr. Asquitli's statement bad jipfc altered the essential factors in tiro situation. Further discussion would be ridiculous, an.tl lio itrgMt tiiat a division be- taken without delay.

Ho would ilot, he said, make any furthor appeal id Mr. Asquitli, It was futile and ridiculous to discuss tito Dili further. "Lot the curtain ring doivn on this contemptible farce," ho concluded. "Thangh X'nis is the oiid ef tho act, it is'nftt ttio cud of tins playTho iinal act will lie played in tlio csantry, but there it will not ha- a fared. When the Government is not abjo to find a statl for a Minister, it is ovideftt that the final tribunal is not distant."
