Special to THE MORNING CALL.

DUBLIN. Dec. 1I-Though Parnell suf-
fered intense pain from the effects of the
lime thrown in his eyes yesterday, he was
able at midnight to address from the win-
dow of the Victoria Hotel at Kilkenny a
large crowd. During the address his face
was covered with bandages. He detailed
the events of the day, and the crowd became
exasperaled at the manner in which he had
been treated aud many threats OF vengeance
were made.
D This morning Parnelps breakfast was
served in bed. A close examination of his
eyes revealed the fact that his sight is not
injured. The surgeon declares. however.
that inflammation may set in. He ordered
Parnell to keep his eyes closed, and that hot
water foments be constantly applied.
SERIOUS RESULTS.
1t was announced this afternoon that the
surgeon attending Paruell fears the injuries
TO his eyes may result in serious conse-
quences. He has given orders that for the
present his patient shall remain indoors
Hennessy has expressed to the committee
having the campaign of his opponent, Vim
cent Sculley, in charge, his regret for the
attack made upon Parnell yesterday.
ParnelPs eyes have become inflamed and
be is confined in darkened room.
NEW PAPER.
new paper appeared here to-day under
the title of The 1nsuppressible.
In a published interview Maurice Healy
is represented as saying that assurance can
be given the public that no settlement of
the political crisis is possible by arbitration.
The contest, he said will be fought to the
bitter end. Notwithstanding the Injunction
issued against Suppressed United Ireland
the paper again appeared. Hereafter tue
paper will be entitled Insuppressible United
Ireland.
AN APPEAL FROM PARNELL.
Parnell has issued a strong appeal to the
hillside men. calling on them not to submit
to English dictatiOn. He says, in part:
"Will you give up your chief to the Saxon
wolves, or will you rally around MIN as your
fathers did around the men of '9S and
shout no surrender? Il urrah for Parner,
the leader of the Independent Irish party
Gather, men of the hillsides, at St. Johns
Well on Sunday around your chief and hurl
defiance at his enemies and the enemies of
your race"
HOW THE FUND WENT.
ParDell was interviewed to day with re-
gard to the charges referring to the fund of
$40 600 raised several years ago for his bene-
M. He said he spent it among the work
men of Wicklow, giving 200 men employ
ment in the mines and quarries which is
likely TO prove permanent. for he has heard
that search for the great lode of magnetic
iron has proved successful He referred to
the development of this industry and the
possible development of coal and iron fields
in other districts. which would give Ireland
a great industrial future
THE CONVENTION AT CORK.
CORK, Dec. 17.-The City and County
Convention assembled here to-day. The hall
in which the convention was held was
crowded with delegates and spectators
The name OF Parnell was greeted with cheers
by the delegates. but the crowd groaned
ct il.
The Chairman read telegram from Pat
rick Egan, giving instructions for the trans
fer of his shares of United Ireland stock to
Mccarthy.
Mccarthy in an address declared that if
the Irish party wanted authority OF sanction
for what they had done, the magnificent
gathering there assembled gave it to them.
After such meeting they would be entitled
TO speak in the name of the Irish people,
and they would have still better right so
to speak after the election in Kilkenny.
Resolutions were passed expressing ap-
proval at McCarthy's course
oHAMBERLAIN's REMARKABLE SPEECH.
LONDON. Dec. 17.-Mr. Gladstone is suffer-
ing from cold, and has not been present in
the church at Hawarden since Saturday.
Joseph Chamberlain made a remarkable
speech at private Unionist caucus at Birm-
inPham tonight Among other things he
said that within a week certain former
friends in the Gladstonian party had re-
opened negotiations with him for a reunion
On the basis that Parnell, having rendered
home rule impossible, they saw no reason
why Liberal reunion should not be formed
He had replied that such a course was i'm
possible because Gladstone detailed home
rule IN front of lis programme. However,
recent events had opened the eyes of the
Gladstonian moderates who might CO.
operate with the Unionists and Tories in
the formation of truly national party,
devoted to progress in its truest sense.
LatoGchere. in speech to-day declared
that London Tories paid ParnelPs election
expenses in 1880.
DILLON AND o'CoNNoR.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1T. NJ. Sullivan. one
of the Irish envovs and Mrs. Sullivan.
were passengers on the White Star steamer
Britannia, whi sailed for Liverpool to-
day.
JOHN DEAsY INTERVIEWED.
The Herald's Kilkenny special says:
John Deasy, member for West Mayo, says:
" do not believe a word of the alleged
conversation at Hawarden. At private
dinner at the Westminster Hotel, McCar-
thy, Condor, Parnell and myself were pres
ent, and Parnell said to approach Balfour
and and promise to allow the Land Purchase
Bili TO go through, without serious opposi-
tion, ON condition that Balfour
WOULD PASS BILL
Which would have the effect of reinstating
evicted tenants. II that was not Toryism
and going back on the fight
of the, past ten years l do not
know what Toryism is. After time all
the secrets Of the Irish party will be given
to the world, for Parnell has become savage
as we'll as rather childish, and in return for
his inyrctive the other side will tell all ii
knows to his disadvantage"
THE LAND LEAGUE FUNDS.
The Suns Paris correspondent called to-
day on John Munro, the banker. in refer
ence to the rumor that ParIell had with
drawn the Land League funds. Mr.. Munro
said that lie knew all about IT. but he would
not make any Statement as to whether Par
nell had drawn out the money or not.
Dillon ana O,Connor sent cablegram to
Mccarthy today expressing their deepest
regret at the injury to Parnell, and stating
that the language and acts of violence on
both sides will ruin the Irish cause in the
eyes of Americans and fill the Irish people
here with despair.
O'Connor, in an interview, said that If
Parnell kept on in his recent stand, even
IL the election was lost at Kilkenny,
the cause would be irretrieyably ruined.
