was resumed today Captain Walsh,

ailtun Pacific railway, continued his
testimony In regard to thu number of
boats and llfo bolt carried by Iho
liner. In each caso tho number call
ed for by regulations was found to

C. S. Halght, of counsel for tho
owners of tho collier Storstnd, which
rammed tho Kmpress, questioned tho
witness about tho promotion system
li, vogue in tho Canadian Pacific rail
wny marine service.
Captain Walsh said that tho com
mand of tho Kmpress was tho high

O. W. Wotherspoon of Now York,
who had charge of tho diving opera
tions nt tho wreck, described tho trips
iniido to tho vessel by Kdward Coss
boon, who afterwards was Injured

tho diver had established that tho
Kmpress was lying on hor starboard
side, with her bows pointing to tho

Lord Mersoy, chairman of tho com
mission, asked whnt this evidence
was Intended to show.
Mr.tlliilRht: "It establishes, , my

OF
LONDON, Juno 23. Tho crisis In

rule to Ireland entered another stngo
today when tho Marquis of Crowo.
Liberal leader In tho house of Lords,
Introduced a bill to amend tho Irish
homo rule bill.
Tho terms of tho amending bill
nro Identical with those offered on
.March 9 by Premier Asqulth and con
temptuously refused by Sir Kdwnrd
Carson, tho Irish Unionist leader,
who described tho premier's proposal
as n "hypocritical sham."
Hy tho now bill the parliamentary
electors of oach county In Ulster are
to bo allowed to dccldo by vote
whether tho county shall bo ecluded
from tho provisions of tho homo rule
bill for n period of six years from tho
first meeting of the new Irish par
liament. Tho situation has never been
paralleled In parliamentary proce
dure In tho llrltlsh Isles. Never be
fore tins a hill been presented to par
liament to amend a mensuro not yet
on tho statute hooks. This was how
over, the only means of overcoming
tho deadlock, nB tho house of lords
refused to consider the main bill un
