The London Papers on Gladstone's
Speech.

LONDON. May 1.-THE Pail MpH
Gazette, this afternoon, says that Glad
stones speech. last night, made the bad
worse and sealed the fate of the home
rule bill. 1t adds that Mr.. Henry Labou
chere, who has acted as Intermediary be-
tween Gladstone and Chamberlain, has
informed the latter that the premier was
willing to make adequate concessions in
order to secure the support Of the Radical
leader and his adherents, The speech
did not bear out this promise in the way
it had been accepted by Chamberlain, and
the G0zete says he was astonished and
disguised, and openly declared in the
lobby of the house of commons that he
had been misled and would now oppose
Mr.. Gladstone's bill tooth and nail.
The 81. James G. ,zette says there is no
longer any doubt hat the disruption
bill" (Nlr. Gladstone's home rule measure)
has collapsed.
The Globe asserts that there is less
chance now than ever Of the home rule
bill passing It's second reading.
The Echo declares that Mr.. Gladstone's
bill is virtually doomed.

The Wright Murder.

DENVER, May Ito day the prelim
mary examination of the girl who killed
Robert Wright at Elizabeth, last night,
took place. Her name was discovered to
be Alice Burns. Her brother, james Il.
Burns, and parents are highly respectable
people of this city. The general opinion
here is that the girl was seduced by
Wright, as she alleges, and that her action
in the matter to that extent was justified.
She was remanded to jail to await the
action Of the grand jury. The two balls
toking effect in Wright's head entered the
face hardly half an inch apart, and as the
recoil Of the revolver of forty FIVE calibre
was very severe, some doubt is expressed
as to the ability of a woman so frail as
Miss Burns to be able to hold the revolver
with the steadiness required to send the
second ball in close proximity to the first.
The impression among many is that her
brother did the shooting, while she volun-
tarily assumes the blame.
