LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE question of Irish
coercion will be decided at a series Of cab
met councils during the coming week. Lord
Salisbury is reported tonight to have re-
ceived a decided intimatiOn from the
queen that the royal sanction will
be refused 10 any bill creating
separate parliament for Ireland.
The statement is made on good authority
Chamberlain, speaking yesterday, declared
emphaiically against any measure calculated
TO affect the integrity of the empire 1t is
confidently asserted that Mr.. Gladstone has
given assurance 10 his political supporters
that he has not any time proposed a
form OF home rule for Ireland exceeding
local self-gOvernment and accompanying
reforms, and that he does not intend to do
so. Lord CarnarvOn visited the colonial
Office yesterday and remained some time.
IL IS believed he is inclined to accept the
exchange from Ireland TO the colonial office
Col. Stanley, colonial secretary, is spoken
of as likely 10 20 10 Ireland until matters
are settled. Col. Stanley was secretary of
state for war under Lord BeacOnSfeld and
firm believer in a strong government in
Ireland. Mr.. Parnell. according TO state
ments extensively telegTaphed yesterday, is
preparing in the event Of the Salisbury
cabinet refusing 10 bring in an Irish
bill conceding the terms proposed
as the price of Nationalist support,
70 produce evidence of a conclusive char
aeter from electiOneering agents and paTlia-
mentary candidates themselves as to the
understanding by which the Tories re-
eeived the Irish vote. 1t is stated tonight
that among the witnesses he can put i'm the
box are two who are capable of throwing
more
LIGHT on THE SUBJECT
than any other, namely, Lord Randolph
Churchill for Lord Salisbury and Mr.. T. NJ.
Healy on the part of the Nationalist.
These gentlemen will be asked to state
what they know about the anti-electiOn ar
engagements, and more particularly about
the Christmas trip of his lordship to
Ireland. II seems incredible in the face of
what passed during November. and later in
January. between representatives of the
Nationalist and Tories. that coercion meas
ureS in Ireland are seriously contemplated
by the Tory cabinet now. An inquiry set
on foot among the Scotch Liberals as 10
their views on the Irish question,
has ELECTED the fact that not a
single member among those whose inten-
tions are known will commit themselves to
any scheme OF separation. The Scotch
uelegatlOn, as body. may be said TO be
solidly in favor of unity of the empire,
lnelining to a conservative policy in ques-
lions OF constitutional changes affecting the
relations of the the three countries. The
weekly press throughout the country indi-
Gates rapid growth of anti-separation
opinion in connection with Irish affairs.
There is scarcely 4 trait of ill-feeling
against the Irish people, but ample evidence
of the belief that the NatiOnafirtS ara
secesSionists in disguise, and of determin-
alton not to permit Mr.. Gladstone to drag
the county into concessions. strengthening
secession schemes if there are any.
The organs of the advanced Radicals
as rule pronounce strongly against
renewed coercion measures in Ireland. Not
Few OF them care to come out boldly for
Irish parliamentary independence in view
of the attacks of the leading organs and
public opinion and the rapid spread of the
anti-seceSSiOn cry.
