The housekeeper, fastening to put

out for Gorbay that afternoon, and had

to identify him.
Mr. Penruth took respectful leave
of his new client, and went below to
have a look at Phil. Phil was produced,
but did not take kindly to Mr.. Penruth, |
and, being somewhat badgered in the |
legal manner by that gentleman, cut |
the knot Of difficulty by protesting that
hewas Phil nure and simple, and had
no other name.
The solicitor put himself in CORE

q Mrs. Maurice, with child and ma

aboard the Isle of Elba, but no inquir-
iessIad been made concerning them

London. Before this scanty news ar

Phil was at the Sea-gate gathering

CONDEMNATION.
FdShingiOn Special to 4OnIdys LOuhrlle Couritr.
Journal.
As the time for the campaign ap.
,proaches II is hoped that tho President
may take a more Democratic view Of the
situation, and do something to help the
party. He has few friends here outside
Of Congress who believe lie will awaken TO
the importance Of the subject, aud throw
little life into the campaign by referring
the substantial encouragement OF his
great position to Democratic toilers In The
political vineyard. II he shall fail to do
this, II will not be surprising II heroic
measures are resorted TO by the party In
Congress. 1t Is a subject that has been
discussed privately and with seriousness
by prominent Democrats during the last
two or three months.
The Republicans were once forced 10
abandon the man they had elected, by his
indifference to party interests. They
hanpered him 80 CO npletely by deserting
him 10 Congress that bis position was q
merely Rgurative and negative one.
Should tho Democrats in Congress decide
that that they should place Grover Cleveland
In tho position the Republicans placed
Andrew johnson In, they could do 1t
with equal effectiveness. II Is q contin.
gency that is not 30 remote as some people
might imagine. The spirit ot the boycott
is not confined to class. Should the
Democratic party become exasperated into
boyCoEting Grover Cleveland for his un.
democratic conduct, 1t would bs a monu.
mental incident In the history OF the
times. There is some mighty hard think
Ing being d1ne about these things, by the
best and truest Democrats in the land.

On the Irish QueStion-rhs Defeat Of Glad.
stone.
New YoRK, June 8.-PAtrick Ford, OF
the Irish World, says; The defeat Of Mr..
Gladstone's Home Rule measure, although
nota disappointment. is nevertheless to be
regretted. The fight must not and will
not be given up. An appeal to the coun.
Try will have to be made and the issue
will be Home Rule.
1t was a great thing yesterday 10 see 200
Englishmen and SCotChmen in the British
House OF Commons vote in favor OF Home
Rule for Ireland. Whether that figure
indicated the high water mark Of British
liberality toward Ireland or whether IL
was the promise Of better things cannot
say. sincerely hope 1t was the latter.
Yet | cannot help thinking that the pre-.
sentation OF Irish Home Rule In tho
English Parliament has been made under
exceptionally favorable circumstances
Gladstone is atower OF strength. No man
In great Britain has anything like his
personal following. The Parnelltes them.
selves admit that no other man could dare
hope to Introduce the subject OF Irish
Home Rule into the English Parliament
for favorable consideration with the small
est chance OF success. To his enormous
influence and admirable parliamentary
skill must certainly be given the credit Of
many OF these votes.
But Gladstone is now slowly climbing
up to eighty. His working day is well
nigh ended. 1t will strain what vitality
there is left In him II he ventures to fight
through another campaign.
To speculate on the possible result OF
the forthcoming elections then Is idle. II
the British people shall approve Of Glad
stones policy at the polls then an era Of
peace between England and Ireland will
have been inaugurated. II on tho con-
trary, the British people vote no-ii they
say Ireland shall be given no
measure OF self government, she
must be subject absolutely to British
denomination, and II tho Irish
people don't like II let them leave, then
We must take them to mean what they
say. In that event peaceful efforts on the
part OF such Irishnien IA incline that way
will probably be supplemented by other
lriehmen by methods Of different sort.
This is uttered not as a threat but as a
speculation. Meanwhile the duty oi all
lrishmen is to stand by Parnell aud hustle
with him Ia the coming struggle at the
polls. II Pafnell is beaten there the Irish
cause still remains, and Irish soldiers will
not be found wanting TO fight for 1t on
other tields,

Him a Good Deal OF Trouble,

Him Good Deal OF Trouble,
NEw YoRE, June s.-ohauncsy NJ. De-
psw, sitting at his desk in the office Of the
president Of the New York Central Rail-
road this afternoon, shook all over with
suppressed genislity and smiled continu-
ally the broad and ioyial smile with which
he Is wont to embellish his iamous after
dinner speeches. His smile became a
laugh every time reporter came In to ask
him II 1t was true that he had been killed
in an acCldentOn his own road at Syracuse,
Saturday morning, Between times he
sCribblel on sheet OF paper. ExClana-
tion points embellshed legends such as
"WreCked on his own rail-, ,""Killed by
his own cars" "Monopoly chickens come
home to roost," aud "Depew done for"
He wanted to see how he was going to
look in print the next morning, Alto
gether he hadas much lun as Henry Ward
Beecher had when somebody killed him
with q crushed strawberry one morning
last week.
When he considered what lovely scare
heads could be put over the news and
with what harassing details and CORY EN-.
bsllishments the story could be done up,
to say nothing Of the moderation which
such horror in his demise would add TO
anti.monopollst obituaries 1t cost Mr.
Dspsw great effort to sacrifice the op.
portunity to the demand Of strict regard
for truth. Virtue triunphed, however,
and Mr.. Dspew Candidly admitted to
every reporter that he was still a live man
His courteous sympathy with, them In
their disappointment ut learning this
smoothed somewhat their natural indig.
nation at his inConsiderate conduct at NOT
being sensatlonally dead.
Mr.. Depew said that the only founda.
ton for the story Is that special train on
which he was riding on Saturday morning
at Syracuse ran into a coal train, derailing
q locomotive and few cars, but doing NO
particular damage. Mr.. Dspew was asleep
at the time Of the accident, and suffered
no injury from 1t except the wear and
tear Of his temper, caused by slightly
unCeremonious awakening when the
bump came. Mr.. Depew's temper is OF
the kind that can stand a good deal ol
wear and tear, and to-day IL showed no
signs Of having been unduly strained.
