Special Cable Dispatch TO THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, Dec. 2l.-The news agencies which
mad no special information about Gladstone's
proposals are making strenuous efforts 10 obtain
specific denial from him by repeated kilograms
to Hawarden. They have not succeeded and
Will not, as my dispatch of Saturday must have
shown. OF all the opinions of his plan cabIed
from New York, Mr.. O'Reily's is the nearest
truth, except on Parnells proposal of a protec-
tive tariff. / have seen letters from Gladstone
and member of his family, discussing the re-
ports OF his plan, and correcting nothing except
the conditions of the veto. The reports were
deliberately and authoritatively issued through
q responsible correspondent connected with
the liberal press in order to learn the temper of
the country on the general question of home
rule and certain special details. / am informed
this morning that Gladstone's scheme Is already
elaborated In great detail, of which those pub
nsred are only small part. Some OF them,
therefore, may be dropped or altered, but the
great cardinal facts OF Gladstone's full adj
herence To the policy OF home rule, and that he
mas definite scheme ready for the right occ;l-
sion are not doubted now by any well-informed
public man in England.
Lord harrington and Mr.. Goschen had a spe-
clat interview, resulting i'm the open letter OF
the FORMER giving "A cautiously worded denial
OF MS own participation in the matter, but
Lord harrington will do about home rule as he
olo about household suffrage; namely, grace
July yield to public opinion. Ii is true
opinion among the liberals is divided and not
on the regular lines of whig and radical. Many
OF each oppose and support the scheme but the
preponderance is in its favor and most of the
rest Will come over when Gladstone produces
the scheme In his own name, because they
recognize the plain fact that nothing but Glad
stone does or can keep the liberal party to-
gether.

Special Cable Dispatch TO The EVENING STAR
LONDON, Dec. 21.-lrving's Faust was a
gorgeous spectacle, the Brocken scene probably
SURPRISING anything ever seen on the stage be-
fore. Miss Terry was extremely good. Irving
is well fitted for the part of Mephisto and played
admirably what there was OF il, but the chief
criticism is a mild surprise that he should pro-
duce SO magnificentiy play affording him per-
sonally SO little scope. 1t will prove a great
popular success

On the Question.
LONDON, Dec. 21.-Mr. Joseph Cowen, a radi-
cal reformer and member of parliament elect
for Newcastle-on-Tyne,h has issued a manifesto
to his constituents respecting home rule for Ire
land. Mr.. Cowen was the chief one of the ex-
ceplions made by Mr.. ParneIl in his manifesto
instructing nationalist not to vote for liberal
or radical candidates. Mr.. Cowen says: 1t is
impossible for England to consent to protective
tariffs for Ireland to the confiscation OF the
property OF landlords in Ireland or to allow the
Irish members TO leg SLATE on the home affairs
OF England in addition To having their own par
lament. With these exceptions approve of
home rule tor Ireland. Proper guarantees for
the representation of minorities, the equitable
partition OF all imperial charges and the unity
OF the empire, in my opinion, useless. The
is the mutual interests existing between En-
gland and Ireland

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Dec. 21.-There have

that the rescuing party, who are working on
the gangway from the air shaft, had reached

the missing men were caught in the sand and

they are dead beneath the instructions. The
party came out Of the slope at 11:3O o'clock.
He reports that none OF the men have yet
been discovered, and all hope Of ever seeing
their comrades alive again has been abandoned
by the reScuing party. They are making q Wig
Orous search, but 1t appears to be almost certain
that the unfortunate men have persisted in the
gangway, and that when their bodies are found
