The governors reception last nignt was the spectacular event of the first part of the session. The legislators in full force, many of them with their wives and daughters, the state officials, members of Governor Woodbury's staff, and the leading society people of the capital assembled to pay their respects to the members of the receiving party which was composed of Governors Woodbury and Grout and Lieutenant-Governors Mansnr and Fisk with their wives. Heretofore the receptions have been held in the executive chamber, but last night the function occurred in the lobby where there was more room and the crowd could be better managed. From 8 o'clock until nearly 11 the crowd surged up the eastern staircase from the lower corridors and some of the time the line extended back nearly to the entrance of the cloak room on the lower floor. Governor Woodbury's staff had the reception in charge and presented each of the trues ts.

After the presentation the crowd distributed itself ab ut the Btate house for social intercourse. The crowd was thoroughly cosmopolitan for side by side with the first citizens of the commonweaitn was tne aay ntoorer ana domestic employe. Strikers Beanme Work. Winnipeg, Oct. 8.

What English Papers Say of Liberal Leader's Action. London, Oct. 8. Lord Rosebery has resigned the leadership of the Liberal party. The reason given for his resignation is that he disagrees with Mr.

Gladstone and other leading Liberals regarding the proper policy to be adopted on the Eastern question. The Star commenting on the resign a tion of Lord Rosebery from the leadership of the i Liberal party, says, "Lord Rosebery has resigned, and Sir William Harcourt reigns in his stead. The Liberal party will never again be led by a peer. Gladstone chose Lord Rosebery as his successor to the leadership, and it is Gladstone who ihaB unwitingly deposed him." T. P.

O'Conner, M. says in his paper, the Sun, "Lord Rosebery never had a fair chance. Whenever he indicated a policy it was immediately thrown over by his supposed colleagues. Never theless everybody knows that Mr. Gladstone stood outside of the painful intrigues, odious bickerings, and miserable personalities which have defaced and wrecked the Liberal party since nia retirement.

The Evening News says, '-Lord Rosebery has played the man. He declines to lead a party the ragtag and bobtail of which was always barking at his heels. Sheer ignorance has betrayed the Radical rump into the bog in which it is at present wallowing The Echosays, "Lord Rosebery throughout has taken a common sense view of the Eastern and Western situations, while the other Liberal leaders have tak en narrower and more emotional views. Lord Rosf bery 's resignation will strengthen Lord Salisbury." The Dublin Freeman Journal says, "Lord Rosebery, daily gave striking proof that his views of the foreign policy differed from those of his party. His retirement is not a surprise.

It iB 'his i arrival on the road toward which he has long been travelling," In the political clubs it wsb not expected that Lord Rosebery would resign the leadership of his party at present, despite the agitation against him. Advanced Liberals desire a more progressive ana aggressive policy, though a large section of the party approves Lord Rosebery 's coolness in a time of feverish excitement. Many Liberal members of tbe House of Commons wired to the offices of the Liberal party in Westminster today ask ing for information in regard to Lord Roseberv's withdrawal, and received the reply that the ex-premier's letter of even Ellis, the Liberal whip to whom bis letter ot resignation was amiressea. nav ing had a hint that it was impending. Bank Offlct Ala Short.

This beinsr done, the committee re turned with the reply that the governor: was tirenared to deliver a message to me joint assembly at 11 o'clock. The clerk then read the report of the committee on rules by which the rules are exactly the same as those of two 3 ears ago. The report was adopted. These rules have been in use for many years and several of them are wholly out of date. It is probable that they will be revised during this session and brought down to the necessities of the present time.
