LONDON. June lO.-The terrible series Of
riots which are in progress at Beliass 10 di.
vertiDg the attention Of the Nationalists In
London even from the exciting problems Of
politics Me-. Parnell is extremely anxious
to have the riots promptly quelled for fear
that the Irishmeu Of the South will be
gcaded into similar acts Of violence. The
Nationalists have far greater cause for dis.
appointment and for desiring revenge than
the Oraugemen Of the North. The former
have Just been disappointed in the hope
tha. was nearest their hearts BY the
temporary defeat Of the Home Rule
bill, but they have acted like true
patriots and COED citizens. There
were many occasions while the bill was in
the balance Of uncertainty which would at.
ford ample grounds for public demonstra-
tions Of deligh. BY the Na;ionahsts, but
they religiously abstained because they did
not want to taunt the Unionists in their
supposed defeat. and because they did not
want TO create scenes OF violence which
might prejudice the passage Of the bill.
| The Orsngemen, on the other hand, ~
soon as they heard OF their small victory.
took to the war path ard initiated bloody
street fights. All this, TO doubt results
from the advice given TO their constituents
oy their respective leaders Me-. Parnell
has constantly advocated patience. the ab.
ssncs OF street demonstrations in favor
OF Home Rule and the avoidance OF
all hostihtjes even il their opponents are
clearly the sggressors Major Ssunderson,
u. p, the leader Of the Orangemen, has.
on the contrary, continually howled for the
blood OF the Parnellitss. and he's urged the
lister men to arm themselves and take tho
law in their own hands by exterminatipg
the Catholics in their province. The et.
feet OF this bloodrhirsty counsel 10 already

and they will never be ended until tho
Orange leaders stop their bloodtbirsty talk
and their sbam preparations for war.
The Orange leaders on the ground assert
that they will keep up their riot, until the
general election. The object Of this threat
is to trighten the Parnellites out oil con.

Parnellites who como among them TO con.

They charged the mob over dozen times
