A CRISIS AT HAND.
Affairs in Ireland Are More Sc
rious Than Ever Before.

Affairs in Ireland Are More Sc
rious Than Ever Before.
Special Cable to the Globe.
LONDON, Jan. At. P. O'Connor's
Star expresses the opinion in it's issue of
to-day that the present situation in Ire
land is more serious than at any time
since the passage of the land act of
1881. cit is quite evident from the re-
cent report made by the Irish
land commisslon," the Star says,
'that Irish matters have taken an
entirely new phase. The old land COM
mission has disappeared, and, instead,
we have body in which the Tory land
agent reigns supreme, declaring in
favor of a produce rent; i. e., rent
based on the price Of produce, pure and
simple, without the slightest regard to
the yield. Thus the tenants are hope
lessly deceived, and will probably
now strike against paying the
judicial rents" The violence of
the resistance made against the
evictions in County Donegal, involving
fighting more desperate than any here
tofore witnessed in Ireland, has created
a great sensation and raised the ques-
tion in the minds of many persons hith-
erto in favor of wholesale evictions
whether the governments course will
not really be productive of more harm
than good. Of course the govern
ment's adherents are quite as in
different to the sutferings, or
even the slaughter of the bailitfs
as they are to whatever disaster may be-
fall the tenants, but the feeling of ab-
horrence which has already sprung up
in the breasts of the more compassion
ate of the English voters bids fair to
work injury to conservative prospects
at future elections. Edward Harring-
ton, who is to be set to break
ing stones and picking oakum
in Tullamore jail, has bee n
placed in a warmer cell than the one he
occupied at Tralee, owing to the fact
that he is suffering from severe cold,
serious consequences of which might
result in an inquiry whose disclosures
the government would not enjoy.
