After & few scornful and biting words as to tho conduct of the ministers, he began jrlva ,1ns hie opinion of the closuro as applied to by tho government. The mombers, ho said, woro about to witness .tlio last it scono iu a farce. Tbo dobato on tho ? financial clauses had been a mora ehnm.

The bill had been chanced In Its lU most vital foaturos; still no dobato was regarded as necessary, slnco, whatever )n was altered tbo bill was always iound perfect by tho adherents of tho primo minister. Jeors from tho Irish. ,tr cheers from tke Unionists, and 10 couutor cheors from the Liboiala ro interrupted Mr. Chamborlain at this point.

NO FURTHER FAILURES OCCUR, And (ho Street Uruuthus Easier than For Several Dayd Past?Tho lluuior Bureau Gets iu Its Usual Work, but No Harm In Done?Bin Issuo of Clearing lloune Certltlcatos?Tho Important Developments ot tho Day?Hopes ol a Heavy Movement of Gold from Enrope?Uuslneaa Failures Throughout tho Couutry. New York, July 27.?During the morning houra ot business at the stock exchange tho nervous tension was uot so pronounced ai on yeatorday. Tho fact that the powerful Standard Oil interest had come into posaesaion of the J Evanevillo & Torre tlauto property relieved all apprehension from that qnartor and the comparative firmnoaa ol I tUni oUaI> - in M.a > >? i bUUV OlVwn 1>I bUU UiatUUK JJUV U1UUUJ londera.at ease. Another thing that holpod to reatoro oonfldonco was tho dociiion of tho governing commltteo of tho stock oxchange not to closo tho board, as was Buggostod yoBterdoy by some of tlio oporatari who lost their hoads thon. Probably tho inogt important developments of the morning, however, were tho ongagomont of $1,000,000 gold in London by hazard Freres, and the further drop in the ratos of sterling exchango. Tho heaviness of exchangv oncouragea tho liopo that tho movement of gold from Kuropo will assume tlargo proportions in tho early future. A moro stablo monoy market would bo of groat assistance to intonding Importers, for It i9 difficult to calculato i upon tho result of a shipment with call loans at 6 per cent por annum one mlnuto and 1 per cont per annum and intorost tho next. Stilt forolgn houses nro looking for a largo import move| ment of the procloua metal. Monoy at tho stock oxchaneo opened at ? por cont por diem and interest, which is equal to 61$ por cent per annum. Lator thoro was a doclino to -10 per cont. It is idlo to talk of a quotation for timo luontoy and morcuntilo paper as long as call loans command tho figures givon above. The subtreasurer was $251,183 debtor at tho clearing houso, of which $200,000 was paid in gold and tho balanco in treasury notes. Bank officials state that tho shipments of currency to tho intorior will oqual yeBtorday's total. The rato of domostic nxchnrum in Now York nt. interior points rathor corroborates this tlioory. A loaturo of tho day's operations at tho stock exchange was tho purchases of securities for invostment. Tho movomont was tho heaviest in yours and did much -to stoady tho list. The cloaring houso committee was in session until this aftornoon. Tho long conference gave tho rumor buroau an opportunity to start the roportthat a largo bank was in trouble, and tho announcement of an issuo of $1,350,000 of cloaring houto certificates lent strength to this report. Lator tho amount of certificates was snid to bo only $350,000, but at tho end of tho mooting tho cloaring houso otlieiala stated that tho original amount, SI,350,000, was right. Their long session, tlioy said, was duo-to tho largo amount of work before thorn In tho way of shifting loans, caused largoly by tho groat depreciation in pricos yosterday. Thoy emphatically denied the story of nbankboing in troublo, and said that ovory bank In tho cloaring houso and, so far as thoy know, ovory outsldo bank In the city was in good shapo. Those who mot at the cloaring liouso were all of tho opinion that tho situation was somen- hut hotter, but still serious. As yot no statements hnvo boon glvon out by the firms of Nloholas and Dumont, who Buspondod yestordny. Dollvory hour passed at the stock oxchango without the announcement of further failures, anil Wall street breathed oasior than it lias for days past Clearings won: through without troublo this morning, but thoro was a lingoring foar that when the tlmo for making deliveries arrived fresh weak spots woul'd bo uncovorod. No failures wcro announced, and as money on call dropped to 0?10 por cent por annum a moro bullish feeling took possession of the room. Prices fairly soared, advancing almost as quickly as thoy did yestorilay. , Storling exchango was demoralized this morning., Tho postod ratos woro roducod twlcof the last timo to $4 91}? 183. The heavy purchases of stocks for foreign account, tho stringency In money and tho Incroaso in the supply of bills against grain and cotton caused tho demoralization. Peroral o! tho banks hero docidod today to extend to tho largo exchango housoi whatever aid may be necessary to facilitate tho Importation of gold. Owing to tho low rates of exchango several largo homes consldorod it n iavornblo tlmo to purchase gold, nnd to that end thoy approachod tho banks to ascertain if the necessary accommodation would booxtondod. Tho banks replied that ovory facility would bo afforded them and on tho strongth of this nearly $3,000,000 of gold was ordorod for Saturday's shlpmont from tho othor side. Tho mombors of tho clearing houso committee wish It stafed that the cloaring house has nothing whatevor to do with this arrangement for importing, It being n matter sololy between tho various banks and their customors.
