EIGHT HOURS' SYSTEM.
(BY ELKCTUIC TKLEGKAFH.— COPYRIGHT.) London, Juno 17. Mr Gladstone's interview with the eight hour deputation was an animated one, and in the discussion he combated every statement advanced by the delegates. Mr Gladstone declared that he would be disgraced and sink to the lowest point possible for the most unprincipled to fall, if he forsook Home Rule in favour of other matters. The Times applauds Mr Gladstone for refusing to commit himself to the demands of the Trades Council.
The Stnndard considers that the unhappy champions have been led from point to point until they are loft floundering in a morass.
