GLADSTONE IN ERROR.
His Cabinet Did Not Acquit ParneII
of Crime.

LONDON, Sept. 2l.-Lord Selborne,
who was lord high chancellor in Mr.
Gladstone's last cabinet, sent a COM
munication to the Times to-day in
which he saws that he recently ad-
dressed an inquiry to John Bright,
Joseph Chamberlain, Lord Harrington,
Lord NorthbTook and Lord Carlingtord,
who were also members of the same
cabinet, in reference to Mr.. Gladstone's
assertion in his review of the life of
William +. Forster that the cabinet in
1882, unanimously decided that Mr.
Parnell and other suspected members
OF the House of Commons were not
implicated in the crime that prevailed
in Ireland. Lord Selborne states that
each Of the gentlemen addressed has re-
piled to his inquiry, and that each de-
MES that such a question was raised in
the cabinet. Lord Selborne says that
therefore there could have been no
unanimity on the subject.

FAVORS LOCAL GOVERNMENT.
Joseph Cbamberlain's Liberal views
Reactionary Policy.

LONDON, Sept. pa breakfast WAS
given in honor of Joseph Chamberlain
by the Radical Unionists at Bradford,
this morning. In a speech Mr.. Cham
berlain said he did not see why Irish
men should not have local government,
though experience showed that,
whether in Dublin, New York or Bos-
ton, Irish government was always in
efficient and corrupt. Once he
had thought that the Liberals
would reunite upon feasible
policy, but now the schism in
the party was widening daily. The al
lance between the Liberal Unionists
and Tories, depended upon placing
principles above party interests. The
government consulted the wishes of
the Unionists instead Of Offering with
them. Mr.. Balfour, Mr.. Chamberlain
said, unqualifiedly approved this policy.
The only policy to which the word re

one which distrusted the present ALI

The Court Orders - Verdict of Not Guilty
in the Celebrated Trial.

CINCINNATI, o., Sept. 25.-Judge Shro-
der to-day granted the motion to dismiss
the case against Ives and Staynor, on
trial for the embezzlement of property
of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton
Railroad, and directed the jury 10 return
q verdict of not guilty.
There were two motions pending, one
to rule out certain accounts and books
offered by the prosecution, and the
other to dismiss the case for want of
evidence to establish guilt. The Judge
did not pass upon the first motion, as be
found that the testimony wholly
failed TO establish a case of grand
larceny which was one OF the counts OF
the indictment, and also that it was not
sufficient TO make out case of en-
bczzlement. Prosecutor Hugh except
ed to the decision and gave notice that
he would appeal to the supreme court.
