DUBLIN, Oct. 13.-The condition of
things at this hour is awful. The
wave of Indignation gathers, and there
is no telling when it may break, or
what the consequence may be. The
land league executive is at this mo-
ment sitting with John Dillon in the
chair. The worst is being prepared for.
1t is rumored that the government will

most extremity of brute force to re-
press the organization. Calmer, but
deliberate and decisive action can be
looked for from the men at the head.
If the men in America stand firmly by
us there need be no fears of the ulti

PARNELL ARRESTED.
NEW YORK, Oct. ia cablegram
from Dublin says: Parnell was arrested
to-day at the Morrison hoGel, where he
was stopping previous to starting for
Kildare. Inspector Mallon called at
the hotel at 9 o'clock this morning and
sent up word to the land league leader,
who was still in bed, that he would like
to see him. The hotel porter returned
word that he would be happy to see the
inspector as soon as he was dressed.
Soon after he sent for Mallon, who with
Detective Sheridan went upstairs.
Parnell met him pleasantly and asked,
"DO you intend to arrest me?' "Yes,"
replied Mallon handing him the war
rant still wet with the Forster's sigma
ture. Parnell was at once assigned to
a cell at Kelmainham.
DUBLIN, Oct. 13.-The detective SUI
perintendent who arrested Parnell was
accompanied by six detectives. The
cab conveying Parnell to the prison
was escorted by two cars filled with po-
lice.
NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-Patrick Ford
issued an address to the land leaguers
of America, announcing the arrest of
Parnell, in which he says the Irishmen
nIuoU feSyI a1I u1IUiI Impulses; reason,
not passion, should rule the hour.
Never did the land league have a bet
ter opportunity to manifest its moral
power than now. Never did it become
the duty the Irish people to exhibit the
: virtues ofself-possession and discipline
and obedience to the land league more
than now. Through enlightenment
and organization the people will assur-
edly come into possession of their in
heritance. Much has been accom-
plished looking to this end already.
Gladstone himself openly confessed
that the land league is the only gov
ernment in Ireland, now, with any
force behind it, hence he makes war
upon it. He presents aims to the
majesty of ideas which are innumera-
bic and immortal. "No man who be-
lieves in the superiority of mind over
brute matter, can entertain doubt re-
specting the final issue.
