Disraeli and Lowe clash over India frontiers policy
The House of Commons hears harsh exchanges on India risk and the Empress title, with Mr. Disraeli proposing a preventive scheme, Mr. Lowe warning of possible loss of India, and Mr. Cowen's speech demolishing the Premier's argument. The division reduces the Ministerial majority by thirty as Fawcett moves to resume debate later. The Budget and Merchant Shipping Bill dominate the following agenda.
