The Herald's special cable from Lon.
don says: The O'Connell Centenary
Demonstration is assuming unexpected
political and diplomatic significance en-
barrassing to Liberals. Home Rulers and
the Government. The Lord Mavor Of
Dublin is supposed to be ut the instipa-
ton of L. Wiley and Cardinal Cullen. a
pure churchman, caring nothing for the
memory of O'Connel. This has given
the affair an utramontane character. Of
iensive alike to Irish and English Liber-
ais, Protestant noblemen, Home Rulers
and fenians. Invitations were mainly
extended to Catholic Laymen and Bisb.
which has drawn an indignant protest
from one of the Irish peers, who claims
that the Lord Mayor is unauthorized to
use his Office for purely Catholic pur.
pose. Cardinal Cullen is known to be
an enemy of Home Rule, and hopes to
thus divide and destroy that party.
II the German Bishops introduced
their international policies in Irish
speeches it would cause bad feeling b..
tween Germany and English papers, and
possibly result in difficulty with Bis
marck. The Marquis of Harrington
takes an orthodox liberal position and
believes that not in Ireland herself is the
Liberator's memory more respected than
among English Wing families, because
he was a friend of civil and religious
liberty everywhere. The cry of Wings
and liberals has always been that the
Llberator assisted English liberals.
