EARL CREWE EXPLAINS.
Received 8-45 p.m., April 26
LONDON, April 2G
In the House of Lords, Earl Crewe explained that the secret session was due to the fact that the force which the Government proposed might not meet the full desires of the extremists on either side. It therefore wished to make a full statement containing much confidential information.
Lord Salisbury protested against "losing the galleries before the House was consulted. He declared that similar procedure should be followed as in the House of Commons.
Ljrd Lansdowne thought the protest not unreasonable, though it was really important to get into the secret session as early as possible.
