THE TINES DEFENSE.
It Says Forty ShiIlings will Satisfy
Parnell's Claim,

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, May 21.-The Times has entered its
defense to Parnell's libel action-not justifying
the libel, but paying into court forty shillings,
which sum. it says, is enough to satisfy the
plaintiffs claim. This is considered very
amusing, for in the O'Donnel trial, when
Parnell had not brought an action, and the
Times thought he never would, their counsel
said that the statements about Parnell in the
Times, If untrue, were doubtless as gross ibels
as were ever planned.
O'Brien claims 10000 in his libel action
against Salisbury.
There is much interest felt in journalistic
circles about the action being heard to-day
brought by Greenwood, late editor of ST. James
Gazette, against Gibbs. its late proprietor, for
wrongful dismissal. Greenwood, in the course
OF his testimony, stated that his salary was
E1,3OO and extras. / may say that his salary
on the Pal Mall Gazette was 81 900 for editing
and $500 for writing.
