POLITICAL TOPICS IN LONDON
IBY CABLE TO THE IRiHONH'I


Ono distinguished authority remarks that
.,umsipess in controversy betrays the novice l"'
ernerienced diplomatist might attempt 10 IeS'ii''
the Obligation of such precedent but "ou'u h''0'
ovnose himself TO A charge Of bareiaced unscrupu-
lonsness. If MI Frenghuy dispatch lscorIec'N
telcgraphed it amounts to his saying 'n"' '"'
solemn declaration of principle by predecessor Is
disowned because the application oi IL NO" Is III
.ouvenient Englishmen, moreover, consider the
moment oddly chosen to press such dernah"S
when English embarrassments are multiplying
while everything claimed Is practically obtained oy
allowing the Coercion Act to lapse, as Gladstone
nromised it should do when the new Crime Dill
passed.
MR. LOwElLs RECALL.
The cable continues to bring accounts of lnsh
agitation in America for Mr.. Lowell's recall, one
correspondent remarkng that the paper now fore
most in the clamor is the Presidents personal or
Disparaging comments on the Presidents apparent
hesitation whether to surrender to the Irish con-
trnue. Both Engllshmen and Americans are asking
why President Arthur contemplates removing the
Minister for whom Garfield would Lave proposed to
Congress to create an Ambassadorshup. The Spec
taor says bluntly that if the President yields the
American National policy is to be subordinated
10 Irish intrgues, the Irish object being to
secure Minister without good qualities
the possibility of rising i'll Ireland 1t adds that
Mr. Lowell obeyed his instructions and secured the
release Of the suspects where man of less tact
would have failed.
EGYPTIAN AFFAIRS.
To-day's kilograms from Eg, pit Indicated tho prob
ability of a resistance to the Ango-French demands
sufficient to require the employment of Turkish
troops The gravest donbts arc felt whether If the
Turks get in they can be got out again. An explicit
agreement for their departure undoubtedly exists,
but it Is believed in diplomatic circles that the
Sultan means TO restore an efficient sovereignty
over Egypt, that Austria and Germany will support
him. and that an attempt to compel retirement
will involve European war. Mr.. Glad
stones assurance last night that there was
no visible likelihood of the employ
nent of force, 1t is understood, was
given before the arrival of the telegram describing
the unfavorabe effect of the delivery of the ulu-
matum. Everybody. peacemongers like Mr. Law
sJn excepted agrees that matters have gone too far
fol- England to recedc. That force Will certainly be
employed unless Arab gives way is now clear.
THE IRRECoNClLABLEs.
The Arrears bill wll not conclate the Irish IT.
reeoncables 1t is not clear whether the bill will
get through the House of Lords in its present shape
OIninous hints of material notifications already
thrown out, hut the latest declarations Of the Irish
members and the Irish press sufficiently show de-
Termination to repudiate Mr.. ParnelPs promise to
suspend agitation when the Arrears bin is satisfac
torily settled. Mr. Dillon's speech on Wednesday,
with its Justification of the outrages hardly more
significant than Mr.. Redmond 3 PLAN notification that
no concessions about land will prevent a continued
agitation for legislative independence.
THE IRISH LEADERSHIP.
Mr.. Redmond now belongs to that wing of the
Irish faction which is moro disposed to accept Mr..
Heay's leadership than Mr.. ParnelPs, but the best
informed members doubt whether the dissension
real Mr. Dilon's speech threatened to bring mat
tiers 10 crisis, but Mr.. Parnell. with more adroit
ness than scruple, contrived next day, without
asperatIng Mr. Dillon or Mr.. Dillons party, TO in
tiraste that he was still disposed to exc
cnte 50 far as possible his share of the Klmanham
compact which everybody supposed annulled. In
genuous Liberals accept Mr.. Parnel's declaration
recantaton for himself and Mr.. Dillon, but the
Irish members themselves say that nothing
will prevent them from obstructipg th. ION
OF Crime bin il committee unless &. ver Mt
accepts important amendments
THE CHIEF sEcRETAgY's ATTITUDE
Meantime concessions to Irish co,o,l.ioto con-
time. Mr.. Treveyap's successive speeches though
ffIn on essential points indicate that the Irish Ex
ecutive is ready to go TO unexpected lengths in tins
direction. The Irish exult over TIE promise. not
to extend Mr.. Bonds term of Office and not to allow
MI Clifford Lloyd to perform Judicial duties under
the new act.
THE RADICALS AND TIE IRIsH.
Radicals who were dsmayed by Mr.. Dillons
hrutalites are again resuming negotiations with
the Irish They actually complained Of Mr.. Glad
stones taking advantage of Mr.. DIllons indiscre-
ton to consolidate support for the Crime
bill. but the country heartily applauded
his Indignant denunciation of Mr.. Dillon.
