THE IRISH REPRESSION BILL.
(By Telegraph.) London, May 23. In the House of Commons today a motion giving precedence to the Irish Repression Bill, winch had been introduced by the Government, was carried by a substantial majority ; and it was further decided that the question of payment of arrears of rent in Ireland should be dealt with after the Repression Bill. The House will sit tomorrow for the special purpose of dealing with the latter measure, which was read a second time today by a majority of 112. May 25. In the House of Commons last night the Irish Repression Bill was again under consideration. In the course of debate Mr Dillon made a speech, in which he stated that as the landlords were continuing to evict tneir tenants for non-payment of rents, he must refuse to denounce the commission of outrages against landlords. Mr Gladstone replied in strong terms of reprobation of the attitude assumed by Mr Dillon, and stated that Government felt that it was imperative that the Repression Bill should become law.
