Home Politics
- — : ♦ -— ■ By Electric Telegraph.— Copyright. (WE TOOTED PRESS ASSOCIATION 1 .) London. February 14. The House of Commons has passed a resolution regretting the indignity offered to Mr Patrick O'Brien, M.P. for Monagham North, who was arrested a few daya ago in mistake for Jaa Gillooly, M.P., but by a large majority refused to refer the question of wrongful arrest to a committee as a matter of privilege. Mr Parnell, in moving an amendment to the Address in-Reply to the ■ speech from the Throne, reiterated the statement that Lord Carnarvon's views on the subject of Home Rule were identified with his own. Lord Carnarvon had declared that an Irish Parliament was the ouly feasible concession to Irish claims. ' Mr Parnell further declared that" Mr Balfour's assertion that good results were apparent from the policy that coercion was baseless Coercion was only beginning in Ireland, and it was therefore too early for the Government to take credit for a policy the results of which could not yet be ascertained. Mr Parnell's speech is regarded as a feeble indictment of the Irish policy of the Government.
