Especial Cablegram to the Globe


LONDON, Dec. 12.-There is an extraor-
dinarily strong feeling prevailing over the
action at the Parnell banquet last night in
refusing to mention the queen in the toasts.
The newspapers throughout the
country comment upon the fact.
The Telegraph this morning calls
upon the government to vigorously take
immediate steps to teach Parnell that his
defiance will not longer be tolerated. The
Standard says he ought to feel compulsion
and shame at being the most prominent
person at Banquet where a queen was
wantonly and gratuitous'y insulted. The
Globe believes Parnell honestly desires to
act for the good of Ireland, but is willing
to resort to anything to win,
and thinks he will yet be
able to redeem his character.
LONDON, Dec. 12.-It is understood the
home Office sent a letter to Judge Denmap,

full murder against O'Donnell. The judge

opinion that the evidence fully justified
