amendment for the rejection of the
home rule bill was defeated in the
House of Commons and without divis
ion the bill wsb given for the third
time its second reading in the House.
The announcement of the figures
evoked louder cheers from the opposi
tion than from the ministerialists, the
opposition interpreting them as grati
fying proof of a dwindling government
majority. But the diminution is ac
counted for to some extent by the ab
stention of the O’Brienites from vot
ing.

feating home rule was 356 to 276 and
at the showing of a reduced govern
ment majority there were cries of:
“Where is your independent majority
now?” from the opposition benches.
The second reading of the home rule
bill was carried the first time by a
majority of 101 and the second time
by a majority of 98.
If the measure passes on its third
reading it will automatically become a
