WASHINGrpN, May l&.-Ihere is re-
port tonight that the Republicans desire
to continue tho general tariff debate ten
days or two weeks longer and that they
will propose to the Democrats in that case
TO omit the customary five minute debate
ON the details oil the bill and proceed a.
once ON the close OF the general debate to
put the bill on ia passage.
II is understood that u this proposition
IL accepted by the Democrats the Eepubh
cans will prepare bill OF tneir own, and
on the close OF the general debate move to

their own, and Ou thi' proposition the first

Up to the present time the Eastern Re,
puhlicans have resisted the demands Of
the Western members OF the party for a

have grown more peremptory in their de
mandz for some positive Republican tarltl
policy, declaring that their people in the

NEW YORK, May II The Chio'ir Ncw
has received the following cablegram from
Rev. Francis Steilsns, its correspondent in
Rome. The recent rescript Of the Holy
Father on the Irish question Is an indiCa-
ton of the papal policy, to he pursued
with respect to the agitation now being
carried on in the Emerald Isle. Arch
bishop Walsh, OF Dublin, had many au-
dIences with his holiness on the subject.
The Pope afirms that as far rs is in his
power, he will protect the interests of the
Irish people, but that he will condemn
everything in the land war Of revolt
lionary nature.
The Holy Father has gone further and
has informed the English government that
he expects them TO do something for the
Irish trniut farmers. This was insisted on
by the Papal Secretary Of State in his con
ference with the Duke of Norfolk. \
further explanation OF this decree il that 1t
was inspired 10y the requests OF few irish
Bishops, who brought the matter to the
Vnticau's attention for official action. 1t
il known that Parnell WAS opposed to the
plan of campaign and has never taken part
IN il. IL il believed in Rome that the in
tarestyof Ireland can he preserved by means
that will not antagouihs public sentiment
and bring the Irish cause into dIaiaV0r.
