Mr. Morley, in reply to Mr. Balfour, said the measures taken in the Punjab sufficed for the maintenance of tranquility. The situation in Eastern Bengal was strained. Hindoo agitators are’ violently attempting to compel Maliommedans to abstain from purchasing goods in the markets. Great unrest continues, hence a new ordinance has been promulgated regulating public meetings and to prevent seditious speeches. The ordinance is considered absolutely necessary for public safety. Mr. Morley intimated, in reply to Mr. Redmond, that it was inopportune to discuss the subject now’, lest the agitators of India saw’ the House of Commons w’as divided on the matter. (Ministerial and Opposition cheers).
