I'lie Irish Secretary Introduces the (lovernment Land Bill into British Hiouse of Commons. London, iiy ('ablcT---'he Irish Secre Iary, Mlr.

Wyndhamin said he thought the :<h "ne would not involve ;ver $0, but,i un, hut that, $750,000.000 rould Ibe safely a dIvanced on Irish land. Advaic-es to tenants are limited to $2, ,00 in the cnge :sted districts and $5. 000 cisewher e.

''he keen interest felt in this now legislation, which It Is hoped will pro mote peace and content.ment in Ire lindl, was shown by t.he c.awded .1louse. The peers' gallery and the distinguish ed strangers' gallery were filled and there has been no such gathering of members of Parliament since the open ing of the session. In the diplomatie gallery sat United States Secretary 1lenry White. an interested spectator, while almost every Irish peer listened to Mr. Wyndham's exposition of the bill. From an early hour this morning, the stone benches from the louse of Commons entriane to the doors of the lobby, were packed with impatient Irishmen, among whom were niany presidents. Most of these went away without, even seeing the inside of the legislative chamber. the galleries of which were crowded as has not been the case for many a day. Michael Davitt. the "father" of the Land League, celebrated his 57th birthday by re-entering the House for the first time since he censed to be a member, in or der to hear the Chief Secretary for Ire land unfold his plans. For the most. part the Liberal mem hers sat gum, the applause coming from the Irish benches. A bush of ex pectatxion fell on the assembly as John Rtedmnonl, the Irish leader, rose to speak. If he refused to countenance the hill1, its dleathi and plerhaps even thle governmenPit's downfall, was de creedl. When the gallerIes of the House found himil sym pathetic and( non-coin mnitial, a feeling of relief p)ervadedI all sides. Whlat Sir llenry Campbell Banneiman, the Liberal leader, and the others said had little effect. T. W. Russell, who with others criticised the details and var'ious omIssions in Mr. Wyandham's plan, wound up with a guttural and reluctant admission that "it is a great bill." The passage of the first reading of the bill wVas followed by the rush to the lobbhy, where enlsued scenes that mighlt well mlake the ghost of Parneil turn in is grave. The tall form of Lord D)udley, Lord Lieutenant of Ire land, couldl be seen amidst a crowd of Nationalists, who scarcely a year ago would rather hlave suffered anything thani discussed with the official head of the IrishI party any question. Beside Lord D)udhey stood the grizzled litble SIr Anthony Mellonnell, tile First Na tionlal Assistant Irlishl Secretary. Mr. Wyadham, who was heartily cheered when lie arose to speak In the House, announcedl at the outset that the government thlought cash aid was necessary for the fulfillment of the pro posed scheme, but it attached, greater inmportanice to the credit operation than to the cash operation. HeI thlen unfolded the scheme, which provides for advanlces of money for the pur chase of land by tIle tenants. The ad vances will be In the shape of cash and not of stock, but in order to enable the cash to be raised a new stock is to be floated. It will be calledl "guaran teed" 2% per cent, stock and will be redeemable for 30 years. Mir. Wynd hanm doubted if $500,000,000 of the stock would be needed. It will he issuled at the rate of $25,000,000 yearly for the first three years and afterwards possi bly in larger sums. In addition to this the gover'inment I'proos(d a free granit of $60,000,000 to be saisedl by additions to the stock, the interest and sinking fund which will b)0 bornei by the Trenasury, and1( the mnaximum111 annullal Charge of which will inot exceed $1, 950,000. Against this charge on the British Treasur'y the Irish government priop)oses forthwithI to comm ience reC ducetions in the cost of ad minlist ration amiouinting to $1,250,000 pecr anniun for ever.
