DUBLIN, Dec. 14.--Parnell addressed a
meeting OF five hundred people at Tully-
rome today. His speech was mainly a
repetition OF his utterances in previous
speeches. 1t was delivered amid run
ming commentary of cries, such as :
'Down with Judas Healy," ''To hell
with Hennessy, the Zulu King" etc,
from certain of his hearers. From
Tullyrone Parnell and friends drove to
Freshford, where Parnell addressed am
other meeting, referring during his
speech to the seceders as miserable
gutter sparrows, whom he had pushed
out of obscurity and given a better
chance than he gave himself" While
talking, Parnell was interrupted by q
gathering of his opponents, who shouted ::
''To hell with the adulterer" A fight
would inevitably have followed but for
the presence OF the police. Parnell
closed his days work with an address at
Urlingford, where he spends the night.
AN ANTI-PARNELLITE MEETING.
The anti-Parnell faction held meet
ing today at Tipperary, at which 2000
persons were present. Canon Cahills
| taking the chair was the signal for a
band of fifty Parnellites to start cheering
for their leader. This was responded to
by the anti-Parnellites, and the cheer
ing was kept up by the two factions for
fully an hour, making it impossible for
the speakers to be heard. Father
Humphreys and others tried hard to
pacify the opposing crowd, but in spite
of their efforts stones were thrown and
sticks used freely, and serious conflict
was averted only by the final with
drawal OF the Parnellites. After speeches
were made a resolution was carried in
support of Mccarthy and his followers.
MRS. o'sHEA's pETT1coAT.
Healy, Kenny, Tanner and Davitt to-
day addressed meetings in support of
Sir John Pope Hennessy. Healy de-
clared that if Parnell was allowed to re-
tain the leadership, he would jump Ire
land with new banner made of Mrs
O'Shea's petticoat. Parnell, he said,
put Captain O'Shea in parliament, the
price paid being the honor of O'Shea's
wife.
Healy said Parnell wanted to make
men like Dillon, O'Brien and Sexton "a
holocaust on the altar of his lusts.''
Healy accused Parnell of prostituting
the funds for the evicted tenants to en-
ploy hirelings and boys to break his
opponents skulls. Parnell was show
ing wonderful zeal and activity now,
but where had he been the last five
years?
A voice-With Kitty [laughter].
Healy continued in the same vein.
OTHER MEETINGS.
At stormy Nationalist convention at
Newry, resolutions were adopted
strongly denouncing Parnell and the
Freeman's Journal, and calling for the
resignation of Justin Huntley Mccarthy
who represents Newry in parliament,

tions commencing Parnell, were
adopted
The Garrick-on-Suir board of guard
ians have rescinded their vote of want OF |
confidence in Parnell.
DAvITT RESPECTED BY HIS FOES.
There was race between the oppos-
ing parties to catch electors at Fresh
ford. Davitt and Sir John Pope Hen
messy reached that place just before the
celebration of mass. The priest, |
however, decided that mass could wait,
and messengers were dispatched to beat |
up the people. Fortv minutes saw a
crowd collected in the market place,
headed by Father Shortall. At the |
same moment band OF Parnellites ar
rived headed by Father O'Shea, sus-
pended priest. he Parnellites, how
ever, joined with the anti-Parnellites in
their meeting, shouting to Davitt;
You're welcome"
Davitt spoke until Father O'Shea, their
leader, becoming impatient, exclaimed: :
81 must stop you, Davitt." The latter,
amid good humored laughter, appealed |
to Father O'Shea as chivalrous, Irish
man, to let him go on. Father O'Shea
was Modified, and said he would allow |
Mr.: Davitt to continue, but after Davitt |
had uttered few works in condem-
nation of parnell, Father O'Shea lost
his self-control and continued to indulge |
in bursts OF dissent and indignation,
occasionally subsiding into dogged sill |
ence when Davitt scored a point. When |
second appeal was being made by |
Davitt, Father O'Shea said: Friends, |
let us hear Davitt; 1 don't agree with |
him, but l respect him from the bottom |
of my heart"
The whole scene was characteristic |
of the irnpulsive Irish race. There was
no disorder, and, after the speech-mak
ing ended, the whole crowd filed quietly |
into church, where mass was celebrated.
PARNELL DENOUNCED FROM THE ALTAR.
At Westport. County Mayo, today,
Parnell and his followers were denounced |
from the altar. In many other Catholic
churches similar denunciations were
uttered.
A circular by the Bishop of Cloyne, }
read in the churches today, says: SIN
consequence of the deplorable state of |
things produced by Parnells unprinci-
pied and unpatriotic action, it is of the
utmost Importance to organize league
branches in this diocese.'
