EVICTED TENANTS BILL. Received August 8, 7.30 a.m. LONDON, August 7. In the House of Lords the Evicted Tenants Bill was read a second time. The Earl of Crewe (President of the Council) emphasised the exceptional characteristics of the measure, and denied positively that it would be a precedent in dealing with other Irish landlords. The Marquis of Lansdowne, on the ground of expediency, was not prepared to move the rejection of the 1 Bill, but hoped to modify injustices; when the measure was in committee. The Marquis of Ripon declared that it would have been a more honourable, straightforward course to reject the measure altogether.
