LONDON, Sept. 6.-The British politi-
cal event of the day has been the
speech of the Marquis OF Harrington.
Having been as secretary of war, Mr.
Gladstones most trusted minister, tho
address is accepted foreshadowing the
campaign issues which will DO advo-

speech was so moderate, and so ut
terly disclaimed the more revolu.
tionary projects of tho Radicals that

would appear from their de-
nuncistions OF It's "lack OF
policy" as if Lord Harrington had
cleverly taken the ground from under
the Conservatives.
Everybody Is anxiously awaiting
some

GLADSTONE.
1t Is thought that he may have in

latter's speech was put out as a feeler.
and will soon be backed by a power
iul address from tho "grand old man.
This would leave the situation thus:
The Tories, under the lead of Lord
Randolph Churchill, advocate
sort of mixed Parnellism,
The Radicals, lead by Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain, advocate extreme home
rule. The Radicals and Wings are not

tluentiai with the followers OF Mr..
chamberlain than Sir Randolph
Churchill. As the ex-premier Is sup
posed to desire tho return

votes enough to make it independenti in
Parliament, it Is easy to surmise that

against the Irish party, calculating
upon securing Radicals enough for
any purpose he may desire in the
House OF Commons. This scheme, il
successful, would give the Liberals
sufficient mpjority ia the next House
to throw the Parnellitea out from their

irish party would go toN pieces.
| Then Mr. Gladstone, having ParneIl
shorn, could solve the Irish question
by concessions, which would please
the people Of Ireland, and leave Mr..

ton Of independence would dissppoar
when the Irish had all they wanted
except that, which then would coase
for any essential purpose.
