Excitement Over Irish Self-Govern-

LONDON, Dec. 1S.-Excitement through
out Great Britain on the subject of home
rule for Ireland continues without abate-
ment Newspapers of all shades of opinion
and politics are urging Mr.. Gladstone to
speak definitely in regard to his plans. The
late premier, in response to telegram sent
tesftas asking him for information in ref
erence to the Irish home-rule scheme which
it is reported he has under consideration n
for some time, replied as follows: ''From
my public declarations at Edinburgh re-
specting the government of Ireland you
will easily see that l have no further COM
munication to make" 1t will be remem-
bered that in the speech referred to by Mr..
Gladstone, wich he delivered on Nov. II,
he said in effect in regard to Mr. Parnelrs
suggestion to give local self-government to
Ireland, that when he learns through con-
stitutional channel what the wishes Of Ire
land are, he will give them attentive con-
sideration, but that he can't give this
knowledge until
THE NEW PARLIAMENT
meets. Mr.. George j. Goshen. who be-
longs to the Whig branch of the Liberal
party and who was elected member of
parliament for the East division of Edill-
burgh in the late elactions, having been
asked to-day for his opinion on the re-
ported scheme of home rule for Ireland, re-
piled by telegraph that he maintained his
hitherto expressed convictions against Irish
home rule and that he could not comment
on any scheme of that nature until such
scheme had been fully declared. The Mar
quis of Harrington, who was secretary for
war in Mr.. GladstOneS cabinet, declares he
has not approved the scheme as yet. as had
been intimated in certain quarters. Mr..
John O'Connor Power. Nationalist member
of parliament, in an interview to-day ap-
proved the scheme, which he said was
fair one. 1t was based on the scheme of
MI Butt, the former Irish leader. Mr..
Power did not however, approve the prOpo-
sition that the crown as guarantee
have the
RIGHT TO NOMINATE
a portion of the members of the Irish par
lament. That proposition he character
lied as too absurd for serious consideration.
He added that Mr.. ParnelPs acceptance of
the scheme would be necessary in order to
Justify the government in introducing such
a measure. Mr.. MacArtney, Conservative,
who was member for Tyrone in the last
parliament, declares that the adoption OF
any form of home rule would be in direct
violation of the constitution. under the pro.
visions of which thousands of Englshmen
and Scotchmen have invested money in Ire
land. To grant Ireland home rule, he says,
would be to betray the minority in Ireland,
and the English people would be held re-
sponsible for the consequences. Mr..
Michael Davitt has consented to become
member of the corporation of Dublin as
workingmen's representative. He was ten
dered banquet at the Mansion honse by
the lord mayor of Dublin, but has declined
to be feasted while. as he says, hundreds of
people in the city are starving.

LONDON, Dec. 1S.-The queen, having
intimated desire to be placed in possession
of the views of the cabinet on the Irish
question, precise draft of the leg
islation proposed by the Salisbury
ministry will be drawn for her
majesty's consideration. 1t is therefore i'm
perative that the ministry arrive at some
sort of a decision Immediately. The Irish
dukes, earls and barons. and English no
bles having Irish landed possessions. are fill
ing the political atmosphere tonight with
shouts of civil war, if the threat to create
an Irish parliament is carried out. The
powerful social and political influences in
the kingdom has been set in motion to crush
the popular movement before it takes fuller
shape. The Tory party is completely de-
moralized by the conflicting sentiments of
the two wings of the party. Lord Randolph
Churchilrs following is not numerically
strong, but it wields influence and is cap
able of making itself felt at crisis. Lord
Randolph is stated by Nation
alists possessing his confidence to
be prepared to go the whole
length of the Irish parliament, but landed
interests are too strong. A fusion of Demo-
ocratlc Tories, Extremist Liberals
anu NdUlOndllSCS is Ou tll6 CdIuS
if Gladstone fails to carry
out his program. 1t is becoming clearer
every hour that if Gladstone's proposals
are to be defeated, an alliance between
the Wings and Tories is unavoidably
and dissolution of parliament brought on
as soon as issues awaiting the decision of
of the electorate can be placed fairly before
the country.
DUBLIN, Dec. 1s.-The Daily Express, a
consistent upholder Of the Loyalist cause,
devotes leading article this morning to
picturing the consequences which would re-
suit from home rule in Ireland. II the de-
mands of the Parnellites are granted and
any such scheme of home rule is attempted
as Mr.. Gladstone has been credited with
contemplating, the Express declares that
civil war would not be unlikely to follow.
There would be such clashing of class in
terests such rivalry between the friends of
the old regime and the partisans of the new
order of things, that civil strife could hardly
be avoided, and in case such eXtremities
were prevented it is perfectly certain that
there would be endless friction between the
imperial government and that of Ireland.

Frightened the Girls.
Special to the Globe.


OBERLIN, O., Dec. 1S.-John William
Trumbo of Frankfort, KY, a colored
student of Oberlin Theological seminary,
was arrested yesterday on charge of tres
passing, brought by Mrs. Louis. the matron
of Stewart hall, one of the college boarding
houses for ladies. On Monday night the
house was entered by colored man, who
was frightened away bv the shrieks of the
girls. On Tuesday night the ladies' hall
was entered in similar manner. The
man was not discovered until he was at the
head of the bedstead, when the girl
screamed and frightened him away. 1t is
supposed that the same man entered both
places. When first arrested the man
seemed unwilling to plead either guilty or
not guilty, but finally pleaded the latter.
The trial of the case was put off until
Monday, in order that the defense may get
together its witnesses. Constable Gibson
measured the tracks in the ladies' hall and
shoe of Trumbo and found them to be alike.

The senate adjourned till Monday.
THE MORRISON CODE ADOPTED.
The House Endorses the Committee
on Rules by 22G to 10.

Oh f6 UleS Dy 22O TO 40.
In the house the consideration of the
rules was resumed, Mr.. Springer calling up
his amendment to concentrate the various
committees on expenditures into one COM
mlttee Of fifteen members. The amendment
was rejected. Mr.. Hammond offered an
amendment that no appropriation shall be
reported i'll any general appropriation bill
or be in order as an amendment thereto for
any expenditure not previously authorized
by law, unless in continuation of appropri-
ations for such public works and objects as
are already in progress. The amendment
was rejected. The paragraph which limits
the appropriations over which the apprOpr-
ations committee shall have jurisdiction
was then taken up. Mr.. Cannon moved to
strike out the limitation. but withdrew his
notion Mr.. Blount renewed it with ad-
ditions, but his motion was voted down.
Mr. Hammond offered an amendment pro-
| vding that the committee on appropriations
shall have jurisdiction over
APPROPRIATIONS OF REVENUE
for the support of the government, and
| adding clause prohibiting general legisla-
ton on any appropriation bill. Mr.. Hol-
man offered as an amendment to the amend
ment provision permitting amendments to
the appropriation bill if they directly re-
duce the numbers or salaries of officers OF
employees Of the United States. Mr. Nc
Kinley favored the Hammond amend
ment. The power of the appropr-
| ations committee did not come
from its Jurisdiction over twelve appropria-
ton bills, but from its ability to use those
bills as vehicle for general legislation. 1t
was not good policy for the minority to
help the majority to enact rules which
| everybody admitted would lead to extrava-
gance. Messrs. Hammond and Holman
withdrew their amendments, and the
former then offered an amendment to strike
out the distribution feature of the report
This brought the house to square vote on
the question, and the amendment was re-
jected by a vote of 20 yeas, and 226 nays, as

WLKEsBARRE, Pa, Dec. 18.-Water at
Nantlcoke broke through the workings of
the No. slope of the Susquehanna coal
company this morning. and at noon there
was about six feet of water in the slopez.
An alarm was sent through the workings
when the danger was apparent.
Later-The disaster at Nanticoke is
more serious than was at first supposed.
The theory that the water broke through
the bed of the river has been dispelled by
the fact that the place whence the water
came is over 1000 feet from the Susque-
hanna. 1t flowed from pool on the sur
face. 1t followed the rock through a fault
i'll the seam, ran into the gangway and
slopes, thence to the lower working of No.
L slope. When the water Yves discovered
rushing inio the slope there were nearly
thousand men and boys at work in the
various openings, but at the particular
spot where it first appeared there were not
over thirty persons. 1t is reported that
there are now about thirty men in the face
of one of the gangways, who are shut in by
the water and rubbish that have accumu-
lated in the west gangway of the second
left of the Ross seam. 1t is impossible to
say what their fate will be.

reaching them some time during the night.
The officials say there is no danger of the
men suffocating, as they will get plenty of
air from the faces of the chambers that are
not clogged The pumps were put in oper-
alton tonight. They have a capacity of
removing 1900 gallons of water per minute,
and it is expected that the mine will be
clear by Monday next. Old miners are
of the opinion that the men who are
| shut up will be rescued alive. The names
of the entombed men. so far as can be
learned, are: K. Oliver, Frank and Will
liam Kirder, brothers; William Clifford,
William Donahue, William Elk. Isaac
Sharps, Daniel Lowery, John Shut, John
Hawks, John Sabon, August Vitual. Ed

this evening the company was making every

the air shaft, which will endeavor to cut

men are believed to be. This work will be
kept up night and day until the fate of the
men is known.
! Later-lnfOrmation received here at 11:30
from Nanticoke says that the water has SUBJ

that his military work since the beginning
of the present war had been replete with
great blunders. He marched into the hostile
country with force that was inadequate
to the demand upon them. The king had
expected to deal only with Bulgaria and
Roumelia combined. King Milan made no
secret of the fact that his Servian troops
