BRITISH PARLIAMENT.

LONDON, January 17.

A few members of the House of Commons yesterday were aware of the issue of Mr. Churchill's mani- festo, which caused a flutter in political circles where the content became known.

Sympathisers with Mr. Church's viewpoint ata of the opinion that his eleventh hour intervention is too late to affect Liberal waverer, as Liberal members of the House of Commons are generally un- doubtedly delighted with Mr. Asquith's speech, and Labourites still anticipate an Opposition majority of at least seventy on Monday night.

Whips of all parties have warned members not to leave. London for the week-end, as the railway strike, which is now regarded as inevitable, may prevent them from returning in time for the division.

LONDON, January 17.

THE CHINA MAIL.

Mr. Thomas resumed the debate on the Address to a thin house., He said the Labour Party did not regret and were not going to apologise for their association with. the Internationalists. Labour had resolved to spare no effort to give the world and civilisation a com- mon organisation which would bring the people together and enable them to understand cach other. The more they understood each other the more difficult it would be for other people to plunge them into war. (Laud Labour cheers). He declared that British prestige had never been lowered so much as it was to-day.

BRITISH RAILWAY DISPUTE.

LONDON, January 17th. An important circular was is sued by the National Union of Railwaymen this morning, signed by Mr. Thomas and Mr. Champ. I declares that it is incumbent upon all-members-of-the union to realise that the honour and prestige of the union is at stake, and any member ceasing work is a blackleg to the signature of his accredited representatives and a traitor to the decision of the special general meeting.-

The circular appeals to members to be loyal to the union and the great causes of trade unionism and collective bargaining...
