MR. PAgNrILs ATTITUDE
u, pornou assumes peculiar attitude, being
or,arcntIy degrous to carry out his kilma'nharh
,,edee to support the Government but dreanhe
the destruction OF his influence in Ireland py III
open alliance with the Ministry or an open acqu'S-
cence in the measure for the repression OF crihe'
Nohoav seems quite sure how far the provisions
Of the Kilmainham compact, which 1t Is Oehe'eu
WAS shattered by the assassnations are capaOie OIL
bcing revived. Mr.. ParnelPs leadership OF the
Parliamentary party is openly challenged Iha'
section of the Liberals which regards the assertion
Of authority as the first duty III hcland' Is appFc-
hepsye lest the efficiency Of the bill should be I'm
paired by a compromise They fear that Mr- uiad-
stone is disposed to relax striugency on certain
points for the sake of securing first, MIR. ParneFs
support and secondly. for the purpose OF attaching
some classes of the Irish people to the side OF law
ard order. Neither the Wings nor Conservatives
ere likely to regard such policy favorably. Mr'
Gladstone's assurances last night that nothing Will
lie sacrificed which is essential to the principle OF
the measure failed to all of bis supporters
Mr Trevelyan's first speech Chief Secretary was
received with general cheers, and convinced the
House of the disposition Of the Irish Executive to
avail themselves of tho full power Of the new BILL
TIE GOVERNMENT DIsCREDITED.
The debates of Monday and Tuesday, involving
the disclosures OF the Kilmainhain negotiations ac-
compaiped by the scandal Of the attempted sup
preston of part of Mr.. Parnels letter, seriously
discredited the Government thoroughout the coun-
try. There is a marked change In the tone Of the
provincial and Scottish press the leading Liberal
papers declaring that tho attempt TO deceive the
House and the country among tue most
scandalous incidents of parliamentary history. Few
hints of the existence OF such feeling can be found
in the London press, but 1t is nevertheless wide
spread.
CABINET CHANGES HUNDRED.
Ramors are again circulating of Mr.. Gladstone's
resignation OF the Chancelorship of the Exchequer
and Of Mr.. Goschen's entry into the Cabinet. They
hsvo probably no other foundation than the strenu-
ous efforts to secure Mr. Goschen's support at the
critical moment The Government, notwithstand
ing their great majorities in the House by the
successive divisions and the favorable result in
Yorkshire have never been weak Mr.. Goschen
himself yesterday declared all rumors about him
self TO be without foundation
POLITICS EMnIrTEITD.
Politics have been extremely embittered the
whole week Mr.. Balfours attack on Mr.. Glad
stone as the author of infamous policy aston
ished those who knew the intimate personal friend
.hip heretofore existing between them Mr. Glad
stones reply is considered the most passionate
speech he ever delivered in the Honse. The Cham
berlain organs continue their unmcasured vitupera-
ton OF Mr.. Forster amounting apparently to a de-
hberate effort to drive him ont Of the party. The
Irish have already begun attacks ou Earl Spencer
ct Earl Spencer as knowing more about
horses than mis- public duties and dcnouno-
ing Mr.. Trevelyan about to follow Mr.. Forster's
example by putting himself in the hands Of the
Dublin Castle clique. The language habituay used
IN private by the Conservatives about Mr.. Glad
stone, and By sundry Radicals about Mr. Forster, is
unequalled in ferOcity since 1876.
THE NEw-YoRK MEETING.
The accounts cabled of the Irish meeting in
New-York are confused and partly contradictory,
but they have leftthe impression that the meeting
substantially approved the Dublin assassinations
Nothing since received indicates that the Mayor
dlssociated himself from this infamy
MR. LowELLs POSITION
Fresh reports cabled from New-York about Mr.
L"welPs recall, appear in to-day's papers English
men remark with surprise the apparent inabi;t, ~,
the President to determine whether he will or will
not remove his most important diplomatic rcnr.-
sentative. The general judgment here is that tbo
displacing Of Mr.. Lowell would be grave mistake
but that il would be better TO remove him than 70
leave him to be embarrassed. The report is partly
diScredited by such prolonged vacillation. His re-
call now will Of course be universally interpreted
as Presidential servility to Irish menace
MINOR MATTERS.
sir Frederick Roberts has written to James
Knowles authorizing the of his name against the
Channel Tunnel. There remains no soldier of dis
