GREAT BRITAIN.

sQuadrOns have no orders except to protect
Europeans which they will be utterly unable
to do in the event of resistance, as it would
be easy to destroy the shipping from the land
and ruin the city before the allied fleet could
silence single fort.
The English and French governments are
mistaken If they think Arab Bey will be
frightened into yielding at Cairo by the pres
ence of ironclads at Alexandria. Arab Bey's
adherents assert that Arab can count upon
the army and means fight. The khedive's
responded to the call to arms. Two thousand
have gone to Cairo; 1900 to Alexandria.
Germany and the other powers favorably re.
ceived the communication of England and
France regarding the naval demonstrations.
LONDON, May 21.-The appointment of
Col. Brackenburg as inspector general of the
Irish constabulary has been cancelled.
The leaders of the league oppose Parnell's
contem plated resignation of his seat, though
he has strongly urged his desire to reside on
the continent for some time.
DAv1TT's REMARKS.
LONDON, May 21.-Michael Davitt, address.
ing meeting of Irishmen at Manchester,
said that nobody lamented the recent murders
more than he, and nobody was more ready to
prevent such crimes in the future. he de-
clared that without the presence of the police
and military the property of the Irish land
lords would not be worth MONTH purchase.
There could be no alliance between Irishmen
and Englishmen. Until landlordism was COM
pletely abolished, the government could not
grapple effectually with the secret movement,
when it was made to appear that such move
ment was only for the protection of wronged
people. If MIR. Gladstone was earnest in his

landlordism, sweep away Dublin Castle, aud
show that he could repose the same confidence
in Ireland as in England.
IRISH ITEMS.
DUBLIN, May 21.-It is untrue that Grape
has been affixed to the residence of Cardinal
McCabe and a representation of a coffin left
on the doorstep.
Seventeen houses were burned al Middle
ton, County Cork. Seventy persons are
homeless.
Rev. Sheehy has returned to Kilmanock and
received an ovation.
In riot at Limerick between the police and
people, the police charged with fixed bay
onets. Several persons were injured.
THE POSITION IN PARLIAMENT.
LONDON, May 21.-The Parnell Gladstone
programme regarding the passage of the new
Irish bill is now complete. The land league
| members have been informed of the progress
of the repression of crime bill, and will
determine the action of the government re-
garding the arrears act. If they obstruct the
Gladstone's anxiety to get the crime bill
through in some form is explained by his vast
loss of ministerial popularity with the masses
since the Dublin murders, and the hope of re-
covery by this method; hence the governments
concession to Parnell's followers to induce
them to avoid obstruction, that would surely
destroy Gladstone's government. When the
crime bill comes up, Tuesday, in commons,
important amendments will be offered and
accepted. One relating to the proposed en-
barge on Irish newspapers will provide, when
adopted, that the suppression shall only refer
to American journals of the Rosa descrip-
ton. This will remove heavy restriction
from the local Irish press. Another amend
ment will reduce the term of operations of the
law from three years to two. An
other will make less arbitrary
the power of arresting persons merely sus-
pected OF belonging to secret societies, will
further modify the powers of local magis-
trates, and provides an opportunity of appeal
to a higher court of persons held by their au.
thority. The land league members are led to
understand that the liberals will accept these
amendments on the condition that their Cd.
position shall not be of the protracted order,
which usually characterizes an Irish
debate. The Irish members will likewise
Introduce other amendments, as a matter
of course, but they will be rejected. Their
work will have the appearance of the susual
force, but will be superficial. The land
leaguers will take advantage of Gladstore's
weakness in parliament to force the passage
of the arrears bill, and at the same time de-
mand certain reductions in coercive measures.
Their opinion is that dissolution will speedi-
ly follow the new coercion act, and they hope
as good result of this measure to secure
its repeal.
The Irish party would certainly assist the
chief card as far as possible. 1t was willing
to help the liberals pass the anti-league bill,
but it will work against them with redoubled
energy when the bill becomes law and will
go to any extreme to help poor Irish families.
Mccarthy says the leaguers are willing
to attain it's ends by any
means and will help the liberals while the lib.
erals help Ireland. 1t is more important to
pass the arrears bill than to hinder the pre-
vention of the crime bill, which the Irish
members could not hope to do, more than
check for few weeks.
Il is understood that Parnell went to Paris
again yesterday morning to consult with
before Monday. Other members of the league,
momentarily estranged from him until the
discovery of the letter to O'Shea,
on which the government bargain
was based, have become reconciled and will
work with him hereafter. Undoubtedly the
most critical time in connection with the
ministerial crisis has been the past week.
At this time the curious spectacle is pre-
sented of the most conservative government
in the world stepped in political bargains of
the most extraordinary character.
Members of the liberal party assert that
the greatest dissatisfaction as to the new
policy exists among the radicals and tories.
Story said last night that Gladstone must
speedily choose between those wings of the
party. They decline longer to be kept har.
messed together. Nobody has faith in Glad
stones power now.
Forster adheres to his belief in q strong
government. He says measures must, how
ever, be distinct and Incorporating. He de-
nounced with some bitterness the bargain
with Parnell. He did not believe Ireland
would receive any measure, conciliatory or
otherwise, except in spirit. The people there
regard these friendly overtures as
an acknowledgment of weakness
to be taken advantage of. Not
while this exists can Ireland be safely gov
erned by half measures, and it is wrong for
the government to undertake it. The liberal
party has grave fears as to the result of the
present policy. The ministerial crisis is far
from past.
