Release of the Irish Agitat0r-How it is
Greeted by the Peoples ~Davitt's Let
ter-Debating the Irish Land Bill.
GREAT BRITAIN
THE IRISH LAND BILL.

~
made by the landlord, was accepted by
the government with an amendment, that
the improvement must be substantially
maintained. Parnell wished to amend
still further, but the amend
by the government and passed,
25S to 100. The minority was composed
of Parnellites, home rulers and radicals.
Gladstone declared he would not agree to
the amendment in the house of lords
relative to the Ulster tenant right in any
shape or form. The speaker of the house,
who hitherto has been one Of the prin-
cipal leaders, supported the government.
After long discussion the amendment
Of the house of lords was rejected, 272 to
l45, the home rulers voting in body
with the majority. The peers gallery
was crowded.
DUBLIN, Aug. .9.-At the weekly meet
ing OF the land league to-day subscrip-
tions to the amount of 92,579 were
announced, the whole being from America
and New Zealand. Dillon was not pre-
sent. Father Cartwell, of Tipperary,
the priest who presided, said they should
be thankful that Dillon was not killed in
prison. The land bill, he said, was
nothing to them. The league should
continue to resist the landlords.
DILLoN's RELEASE.
DUBLIN, Ang. 8.-John Dillon appears
to be in his usual health. The govern
ment has not intimated the reason for
his release, which was surprise both to
Dillon and the land league. 1t is expect
ed he will make his appearance at meet
ing of the league tomorrow, and then
proceed to London and resume his seat in
parliament, to participate in the final dis
cusslon on the land bill.
LONDON, Aug. SIN commons this af-
ternoon, Foster, chief secretary for Ire
land, replying to various questions,
stated that John Dillon had been released
because of the report received that far
ther confinement would endanger his
life. This report on investigation was
confirmed by other doctors. Under the
circumstances it was not thought neces-,
sary to ask Dillon to sign any conditions.
LONDON Aug. 9.-Indirect overtures
have been made to John Dillon that he
should be released on condition of his 60
ing to Madeira or elsewhere where the
climate is favorable for pulmonary dis
eases, but they were firmly rejected by
him. He also positively declined to make
any conditions upon his release. In COM
pliance with an urgent request, Parnell
and many home rule members of parlia-
ment returned to London to be presents
when amendments in house of lords to
land bills are considered.
DUBLIN, Aug 9.-It is stated that John
Dillon does net intend actively to engage
in politics for some time. He has re-
ceived kilograms from all parts of the
country ongratulating him on his re-
lease. He has not visited land league
offices since he regained his liberty.
Speaking of Dillon's release, the Dublin
Freenaan's Journal says: "We trust this
act of justice is dawn of the day
Dillon's fellow prisoners. No tenant
could celebrate the land bill while the
advocate of the tenant fingered in Jail.
Dillon was arrested nominally for
speech at the land league, but really for
his determined agitation against tyranny,
which the government itself has had to
dethrene.
Davitt writes to his sister: Since nv
arrival here my general health has
been fairly good. The tonic
atmosphere and sea breeze of
the island though somewhat boisterous
at times, is an agreeable contrast to the
damp foggy climate of Dartmor AS
| am at the same time subject once more
to those favored disciplinary conditions
of life by which health, wealth and wis
dom, at least proverbially are acquired,
1 am, you see, in want Of nothing that
goes in making up of happiness if I ex-
cept alone few trifles, those of liberty,
newspapers and some one to speak to.
THIRD READING.
The house of lords tonight read the
land bill the third time without divi-
sion.
ARRESTS.
DUBLIN, Aug. s.-Three arrests were
made to-day under the coercion act, all
leading citizens.

PARIS, Aug. 9.-Daniel, the well
known money changer at the Grand
Hotel, blew his brains out this morning.
His office is closed.
DEAN sTANLEY's SUCCESSOR.
LONDON, Aug. 9.-After the deancry of
Westminster was offered to the Bishop of
Manchester and declined, it is said the
appointment was offered Rev. Mr.. But
Ter, head master of Harrow, and will
probably be accepted by him.
A DISAPPOINTMENT.
Lorillard's horse "Barret'' left New
market en- route for New York yesterday,
having proved very disappointing to his
owner and hackers.
HOW 1T HAPPENED
LONDON, Aug. 9.-The railroad accident
which occurred yesterday near Black
burn, was caused by the express from
Manchester being in charge of driver
who did not understand the vacuum
brake, which failed to act. The Man
chester express consequently rushed into
Blackburn Station at the rate of 40 miles
an hour, smashing into splinters several
carriages of the Liverpool & York Ex-
press, which was standing on the main
track, preparing to start.
