THEIRISH QUESTION
What Leading Land Leaguers Think OF
the Recent ChaBge-The Appoint
ment of Cayendish
Generally Regarded as a Farce, and
Likely to Produce Grave Results
i'm GIadstone's Party.

Boston, May 5.-The Herald this morning
prints the following special cable dispatches
of interviews with prominent Land Leag1ers;
PARNELL
was found in the House of Commons to-
night. He said he could not give an opinion
until the government declared the full ex-
tent of the concessions. He thought the APP
pointment of Cavendish looked badly for the
success of GIadstone's plans He was afraid
he was too weak and vacillating. The lib
Grafton of Davitt he considered the strongest
blow Gladstone had struck.
LABoUcHERE,
Liberal, thought the appointment OF Caven-
dish a farce, and the new policy likely to
produce grave results in Gladstone's party
1t would cost it about seventeen Wings, and
dissolution was not impossible, though i'm
probable. At present the plan OF the opposi
lion would be TO form a coalition cabinet,
relying on the aid of the Irish and boiling
Wings. He thought Gladstone intended to
secure the Irish vote, but was not willing to
paw the necessary price. II the new policy
fails Forster is the coming man; If 1t sue
ceeds, he is ruined.
STORY,
Wing, said the new policy would fail. 1t had
no element of success. Cavendish was Il
IL
adopted to suit the Wings, Gladstone would
lose the support of the radicals. If he went
a great length he would lose the Wings.
Therefore he would fail either way. Indeed
a large Wing bolt was already organized.
The results of the new policy must be grave
there was no possible escape.
HEALY,
Land Leauge, said the government threw a
sprat to catch a mackerel. We got the sprat
and kept themackerel. We are glad Cayendish
is appointed. We could not have fought
Chamberlain, but Cavendish is sure to be
such failure that we cannot show him more
quarter than is due the government for
what it has done. | regare the appointment
as the worst possible thing for the Liberals,
The new policy, If carried out to any ex-
tent. will have the effect OF checking
outrages and evictions; and, no doubt, re-
store order, TO a great extent, in Ireland
Beyond the immediate present, however, we
are in great uncertainty until we know whai
new laws are to be adopted.
SHAW
Zone OF the strongest men in Psrlia
ment) said the appointment of Cavendish In
dictated that the policy would be small in all
its details He had no doubt that it meant
more overhauling and Capitalization IN Ire

heard Of the weak appointment, he had los
| all faith in the success of the movement
| but did not think it would lead to dissolution
| though reorganization might be necessary
| He thought Cavendish had been selected be
cause he would consent TO let the policy frit

would insist on carrying ii through. He di'
| not believe very deeply in the sincerity o

prisoners should be released, on account o
the enormous pressure from all over tn
