The other important event in the House of Lords was

the alteration Lord Rosebery made in the Resolution which he will move on Monday week. That Resolution will now not only ask the House to resolve itself into a Committee to consider the best means of reforming its organisation, so as to constitute a strong and efficient Second Chamber, but will add that in the event of the Motion being agreed to, Resolutions shall be moved. This means that if the House assents to the demand for reform, as undoubtedly it will, Lord Rosebery will bring forward, not a cut-and-dried scheme, but the broad principles upon which he, and we believe the Unionist leaders generally, are agreed.
