RANDOLPH CHURCHILL AT BELFAsT.
The enthusiasm witnessed in Belfast
to-day has not been equalled here in
many years. In the numerous pro-
cess ons which paraded the streets
were many women, who all displayed
the orange colors. So dense was the
crowd that filed the principal thor
oughfares that traffic was blocked for
several hours. No sooner had Lord
Randolph seated himself in the
carriage that was waiting for
him than crowd made a
rush for the carriage, embarrassed
the horses aud proceeded to.drag the
vehicle from the station to the hotel.
The enthusiasm displayed along the
line OF march was prodigious.
This evening Lord Randolph adj
dressed meeting, when the enthusi-
aem displayed upon his arrival was
repeated. The hall in which the meet
ing was held was filed to its utmost
capacity. When Lord Randolph arose
to address the audience the cheer
ing began, and it lasted fully
seven minutes. When order was re-
stored Lord Randolph began his adj
dress. He said It lay with Ulster to
say whether Ireland should remain q
part Of the empire. He denied that
the Parnellites were true representa-.
tiyes Of the will OF the Irish people.
As for Mr.. Parnell himself his oaly
title to be continued az leader in the
patty av in action Of which no
one could be Justly proud. By
playing upon the terror of the
peatautry and by means Of brutsl
OUT ages upon human beings he had
secured five-sixths of the Irish mem
beers of Parliament. Lord Randolph
appealed to all, regardless OF creed, 10
declare in favor of ireer and closer
union. II the appeal failed he said
he would not mind leaving the issue
to the people Of Ulster. He believed
the storm would blow over, how
ever, and that the union
would emerge stronger than il
had ever been. But il the
nation was so apostate as
to hand over the Loyslists to the Par.
nellltes, there we're plenty OF men in
England who would stand by the
Loyalists. Lord Churchill expressed
the hope that the struggle would be
kept within constitutional limits, but
added that they must be prepared FOL
he worst.
The meeting adopted resolution Ia
oppose NAtionslism and to call upon
the people Of England and Scotland
for help.
