Serious Trouble Likely to Follow the Threat
ened Wholesale Evictions.
LONDON, Jan. 15.-The Dublin United Ireland
attributed the intended resignation of the Earl
of Carnarvon, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, to
his reluctance to abet the wholesale evictions
contemplated by the government. and which
will render the Irish desperate. United Ireland
implores the Cabinet to look before it leaps, and
not to adopt coercive remedies, as the people
will not submit tarnely to being robbed of their
homes.
The Dublin Evening Mail a Loyalist organ,
commenting on the utterances of United Ire
land, says they constitute note of warning that
the government should not neglect. The execu-
tive is distinctly told that. unless it curbs the
landlords Captain Moonlight" will be fully en-
powered to slay, mutilate and pilage, with the
vigor and hellish ferociiy of the Land League
days.
The Dublin Freemans Journal reviewing the
opinions entertained by the different English
political parties, says: 1.-THE tide runs high
against Ireland. The anti Irish feeling is ram
pant among Englishmen, and they loathe the
idea of home rule for Ireland"
The Earl of Carnarvon, Lord Lieutenant of
Ireland, says that Parliament will not help to
relieve the dreadful distress prevailing among
the Inhabitants of Achill and Eagle islands
Lord Carnarvon adds that his sole reliance for
afording relief to the starving people is the Inn
tied means at his disposal, and sending the un-
fortunates to the work house. He, however,
hopes that private contributions for the relief of
the sufferers will enable the poor people to re-
main in their homes, instead of being compelled
to seek shelter In the already much overcrowded
work houses.
An Irish high sheriff has written to the Times
that. pending the discussion of politics by Par
lament, a famine is approaching Ireland, and
with 1t will come acts of lawlessness. Violent
men, he says, determined not to starve, will
seize the necessaries of life even at the risk of
doing bodily harm to others.
Csrnaryon Not Equal to the Emergency.
Cable Special.
The feeling among the Tories that greater
stringency is necessary in Ireland to protect 10y
alists and suppress boycotting is daily becoming
stronger and more outspoken. Every days de-
ley in announcing the governments Irish plans
will intensity this feeling and add to the peril Of
the situation in Ireland. If strong hand is
really needed to control that country, it is evi-
dent that Lord Carnervon must be retired in
some way. He is nearly seventy-five years old,
is constitutionally timid, is sufferer from in
somnia, and has long been in state of nervous
prostration, according to the statements of his
friends Ever since he first took command in
Ireland, he has worn bullet-proof vest This
precaution was taken at the urgent enrreaty of
his wife. He has no desire to cling to Office and
his undated letter Of resignation is in Lord
Salisbury's possession. But there is no other
peer in the Tory ranks who is at once competent,
available and willing to take the Office More
over. if Lord Salisbury were to make a new ap-
pointment now it would stimulate the Earl of
Kilmorey's followers in the Lords and the Rad
icals in the Commons to Immediately press the
motion to abolish the Dublin Castle government
altogether. Their guns will be spiked if the
Office is left vacant for the present. and the Office
itself, with its vast salary and patronage, will
still be in the gift of the government to be
bestowed upon some faithful worker after the
present excitement has blown over. Lord Sails
purys intention now is to accept the designations
of Lord Carnarvon and of Sir William Hart
Dyke as Chief Secretary for Ireland, leave the
lordlieutenancy vacant, and appoint the Hon.
Edward Stanhope, now President of the Board
of Trade, to the secretaryship.
