British AGalrs-GIadsrone at Glasgow

Gladstone arrived mere to-day. lnOuS-
ands greeted them at the station.
Gladstone spoke in Hingler's circus,
which was packed from floor to ceiling.
Gladstone upon rising said he would
deal with that portion of the Irish ques-
ton which peculiarly affected Scotland
The impossibility of crushing the Irish
people had been referred to by DR..
Chalmers in 1918. He wished to deal
with three points: Security of Protest
ants in Ulster, arguments deduced from
the Union of Scotland and England and
the question of home rule for Ireland.
He denied that Ireland would be an
Independent country under the Home
Rule bill. Alarms were groundless and
frivolous. MIR. Parnell wanted the as
sistance OF every Irishman in the work
of governing Ireland. The Government
would consider every reasonable propo-
sition for satisfying that portion OF VI
ster in which Professionalism prevails.
The union of England and Scotland was
different from that of England and Ire
land. Scotland had met England on
footing of equality, while the entire Irish
nation was against the union of that
country with England. He ridiculed
the proposals of the National Radical
Union to leave undealt with the ques-
ton of Irish local self-government-a
subject which was ripe for discussion
while the country dealt with local gov
eminent for England and Scotland, a
question which was not ripe for discus
sion. Mr. Gladstone thought this pro-
posed cast-iron uniformity of institu-
tons for England, Scotland, Ireland and
Wales was bad, false and vulgar in prin-
ciple. In conclusion Mr.. Gladstone APP
pealed to his auditors to give their voice
in favor of the work of peace and justice.
His closing words were hailed with loud
and prolonged cheers.
LONDON, June 22d.-Henry Labou-
Chere and Charles Bradlaugh have issued
joint election address to the electors
of Northampton, their Parliamentary
constituency. They declare that there
is no middle course in the present cam
paign, that the choice is between coer-
cion and Cancellation. The Tories in a
boasting manifesto say that they ''will
obtain majority in the next Parliament.
We think the people do not believe in
an aristocratic or plutocratic Govern
ment The people must decide whether
Mr.. Gladstone or Lord Salisbury shall
govern them"
The Fishery Question.
OTTAWA, June 22d.-The latest revela'
ton in the fishery question shows that
the Imperial Government has intimated
by cable, through Sir Charles Upper
thai under no circumstances must the
present position of Canada on the fish
cries question be maintained. The
British Government had expressed itsel
as determined not only not to back Can
| ada up, but to take such measures thai
will stop all such proceedings in future
1t is this telegram, received by Sir JOIN
Macdonald, which has brought abou
the concession which the Dominion
! Government propose now to make
! Throughout there has evidently been {
piece of maladministration on the par
of the Dominion Government, it no
knowing where it stood.
Burmah and Egypt.
LONDON, June 23d.-In Burmah anC
Egypt the British are threatened with
increasing difficulties. The conduct o
I the campaign, as we'll as the methods o
seating the Government, are alike a fail
ure. Thebaw's disbanded soldiers are
constantly attacking the British garri
son. Every attack has been repulsed
but the troops are worn out with inces
SAINT duty. In Egypt dervishes are re
Stunning activity, and the SOudan border
is once more threatened by clouds o
rebels. From both countries come
urgent calls for reinforcements.
LONDON, June 21st.-Michael Davit
pronounces the so-called Fenian secre
manifesto, published in the Times, ,
an election dodge. Davitt says the doc
ument was written by an ex-editor of al
extinct Irish weekly paper, which pre-
tended to represent extreme Nationals
views.
Parliament will be prorogued Friday
and its dissolution will take place Satur
! day.
EDINBURGH, June 2lst.-Gladstone adj
dressed another large and enthusiastic
meeting here to-day. In the course O
| his speech he said it was irksome t.
always be compelled to refer to Ireland
| but that this was due to the Tories, who
blocked the way so that the Government
could not get rid OF the question and
| proceed to other business affairs of the
/ Empire He relied, he added, upon the
/ peoples energy to clear the line now
! and allow the train of progress to go on
| its destination. They desired 10 secure
| local self-government for Ireland with
perfect security for the Imperial union
| He had never, he declared, concealed
his ideas from the country when the
great crisis had come. Some people had
had the audacity to say he had endeav-
ored to force this question forward last
autumn. He foresaw in the Irish de-
mand a subject which would sweep into
