Especial TO the Herald bvthe Associated iress.l
. LONDON, June 26.-Parnell sp oke TO-
night at Plymouth. He said that the
present struggle was struggle oil the
British and Irish Democracies against
the class Of landlords who saved them
selves any oompunctions of conscience
by idiotically refusing Gladstone's iip-
eral terms. Voting money to Irish land
lords was not out OF the question. Il
had not been and could not be denied,
he continued, that Lori Caraaryon
agreed with him as to the main lines
upon which autonomy should be grant
ed TO Ireland. All that Lord Carnsryon
said was that he could not agree to tine
adoption Of Mr.. Gladstone's bill, which
nobody denied. Parnell did not desire
10 make further disclosures. but he
lhought il very probable that Lord Car
naryon's scheme included the retention
OF the Irish members in the House OF
Commons. Lord Carnarvon for six
months had urged the adoption OF his
views and the cabinet had not opposed
them seriously.

SHARP PRACTICE.
How Wool Has Been Imported
Free Of Duly.

How Wool Has Been 1mpOrteo
Free of Duty.
WAsHISoToN. June 26 The Collector
OF Customs at Corpus Christi, Texas,
has made report to the Treasury De-
partment in regard to the practice in
dulged in by importers Of that district
Of importing sheep with wool ON, Just
prior to or during the shearing season.
BY this method the importers either
obtain the wool without the payment OF
duty, as in cases where the sheep are
admitted to free entry for breeding pur-
poses, or pay but small percentage Of
duty on wool in cases where animals are
sub bjected to duty as such at the rate of
20 per cent ad valorem. The Collector
shows that out of total Of 81, SS4 sheep
imported from January to March 3lst,
at least 30,l4s were admitted free Of
duty for breeding purposes. Acting
Secretary Fairchild has instructed the
Collector that where parties make q
claim to enter animals for breeding pur.
poses very careful investigation should
be made in order to see that breeding Is
the special object of importation, and
when satisfied that such is not the case,
duties should be assessed accordingly.

Chronic Bronchitis is also an infiam-

bronchitis Il usually passes of as q cold on
the chest, and still the patient does not feel
entirely well. He feels tired and langutd,
and Is Incapable OF taking his usual amount
OF exercise and experiences q shortness OF
palms Of his hands. Soon after this cough
appears, accompanied by an expectoration
OF thick mucus, followed by hectic huah,
loss OF flesh and strength and night sweats
continue when the patient assumes all the
appearances of having O genuine case OF

the lungs or chrome bronchitis.
In the later stage ofthe disease the mucus

softens. while In the smaller tubes and air
cells Of the lungs the mucus membrane be-
